- ABDUCTION 1995 PARTY REPORT
-
- - SPECIAL AMIGA EDITION -
- by Karpow of Scoopex
-
- PARTY PLACE:
-
- Abduction'95 was held in 9-11 June in Rovaniemi the northern city of Finland.
- The party place was not too big school called Korveavaara's High School.
- The main party place are was a not so big hall inside the school. Anyway,
- everything looked quite nice. Only bad think was that party place was bit too
- far away from the city of Rovaniemi. Next Year organisers are maybe going
- to held the party in much bigger town, Oulu.
-
- PC PARTY:
-
- As most of You may know, Abduction'95 was mostly Pc party. There was only
- few Amiga freaks attend. The only Amiga groups which were presented at the
- party were: Scoopex, Stellar, Insane, Zenon and Kinky. And as far as I know,
- There was 5 Amigas at the party. Our (Scoopex) Amiga 4000/030 broken
- while Clone I.D brought it to the party place. When We tried to turn it on,
- A4000 refused to give any video signal. Shit... So there was only 4 Amigas
- used at the party. Two A1200s with the party people and one A1200 and one
- A4000/030 with the organiers. Anyway, There was about 200-300 visitors at
- the party... But organisers waited for about 500 visitors. Maybe that's a
- reason why They didn't payed the winning prices at the party place...
-
- COMPETITIONS - PC RULES and AMIGA SUCKS?!:
-
- Amiga Music and Graphics competition:
-
- Gfx and Music competitions were mixed with Pc and Amiga! Really lame.
- I think that there was not any Amiga pics in the gfx compo. Most of the pics
- were really pure low quality compo and picture by Akiro/Scoopex wasen't even
- shown at the gfx compo. Lamee... About Music compo, I think that there was
- only two Amiga tunes in the Music competition which were held with 19 tunes!!
-
- Laxical of Scoopex compete with module "Rage against school" but it wasn't
- even played in the competition!! Why hell?? I asked this from the organisers,
- and They just answered that it wasn't good enuff!!! Laxical's module was
- one of the best tunes. Really!! Most of the music competition tunes were
- pure shit techno effect crap, composed on Pc. Laxical's tune beated least
- most of the final tunes!! I don't have results of Gfx and Music competition.
- Sorry. Would there be any sense to list them anyways when Gfx and Music were
- mixed with Pc and Amiga?
-
- Amiga Demo Competition:
-
- We, Scoopex, heard that Nose/Stellar are going to take a part of the
- demo competition. We waited some time and finally, I, Karpow, got a
- look of Stellar's compo-demo. And Hahaha... The Assembly'94 winner coder,
- Nose, had created a very lousy demo (read: intro) with sum nice effects in it
- but two whole demo was total flop. Demo's backrounds looked like shit and
- there was not any design in it. Hahah... Btw, Stellar's demo was totally
- coded at the party place...
-
- We, Scoopex, were sure that We will win the demo competition without any
- problems. But what happend? Nose manipulated half of the party people to
- vote for only Stellar and to not give any votes for other demos. Most of
- the party people were from Nose's home city, Rovaniemi and ofcourse They
- voted for Their "own son". Pc freaks in Rovaniemi knows Nose very well so
- They gave their votes for Stellar only. Ofcourse that would have been great
- shame if Assembly'94 winner coder have lost!! Very lame trick, Nose...
- If Nose Fans have gave 2nd place votes for Us We could have easily won the
- demo competition. But anyway, here is the results:
-
- Amiga Demo Competition:
-
- 1. Stellar - Humanexcrement 1081 points
-
- 2. Scoopex - Alien 1050 points
-
- 3. Insane - K-Rauta 909 points
-
- 4. Kinky - Nakki 541 points
-
- So, Nose came, Nose coded and Nose won... Hehe...
-
-
- Voting went like this: Stellar fans voted like this:
- (If I remeber correct)
-
- 1. 10 points 1. Stellar
- 2. 8 points 2. -
- 3. 5 points 3. -
- 4. 3 points 4. -
- 5. 1 point 5. -
-
- So, is it wonder that Stellar won? I don't think so. Whole Amiga demo
- competition was a joke!! Nose didn't even released Compo-version of His
- "Demo" at the party. Final version should be out in one week... Anyway,
- I heard that Humanexcrement got somehow spreaded at the party so it should
- be available in most of the Finnish bbs. Get it for a good laugh. (No Hard
- feelings Nose!) Anyway, I don't care anymore about the party results...
- See You at the Assembly'95 party, Stellar... We will beat You there...
-
- Oki! So in general, Abduction'95 was very well organised. But anyway, let's
- list the bad things...
-
- - Too less action!! No demo shows on the big screen exept the competitions
- (well, yeah, some Amiga demos were shown before Pc demo compo.)
- - Gfx and Music cometition were very lame!!
- - Nose's lame "Vote 4 Stellar only" trick...
- - Too few Amiga users around... (4+1 Amigas at the party!!)
- - Organisers didn't payed the competiton prices at the party.
-
- This for the organisers: Notice Amiga scene better in the next year!!
-
- I, Karpow, send My party greeting to the Amiga people at the party:
