Dear Demo-Coders,

we would like to setup a demo competition at the RADWAR Party 2000.

But we would not like to organice a simple, normal and usual competition.
You have already seen them a thousand times, therefore we invented somewhat
special.

You ask why, ok here are the answers

1. We do not have the time on the party to organice for each computersystem
a separate competition.
The party would be interrupted too much, because mainly we want to celebrate
and booze.
You can watch a computer monitor at home for the wholy rest of your life.

2. Normally everyone wants to program the demo with the best effects. In
addition always 3D Routines, grafix and music can be seen. However it's very
hard to compare one demo with another. Each individual program has evenly
its special characteristics.Therefore we have decided to give you a certain
topic. This has to be  coded by the programmers on the machine, where they
have the best knowledge on. Hereby we want to achieve, that also a DEMO on a
Commodore C-64 with many ideas and humor, in the overall view ,can be better
than a DEMO on a 700 MHz strong Pentium machine with 32Meg of VGA memory and
a Sounblaster Live experience.

Rules:
In order to deal with the problems of technique, the DEMOS should be
recorded on a VHS video tape. On the party the DEMOS are then shown on large
video monitors and also viewed to the wall by a video beamer. Therefore the
demos should be send to us until at least one week before the party. A video
tape with your one recording of it would be best. A CDROM or a diskette must
be attached as proof of programming.

As a topic or storyboard for the demo we did not commit ourselves yet.
However we already made some thoughts, which we want to indicate to you
gladly.

For example: ' Little party People ' following the very successful game '
Little computer People ' from Activision. The game was developed for
Commodore C64 and Commodore AMIGA. We thought of a kind of  conversion of
the party atmosphere in a Comic style. You see the party space in several
levels and  you can watch the partyfreaks doing their activities.

Szenario Ideas:
Drunken Freaks are fighting the security, dancing Cracker in
leathertrousers,  naked girls on stage, GoGo dancers with their LiveAct or
the big eating at the food buffet.

These are naturally only a few ideas, you should free your on phantasy for
the storyboard of your demo.
If the whole thing will then provide good acoustic output  and speech
blisters as in a Comic, then the evaluation of the demos will surely be more
interesting.
All guests at the party will watch the show for sure, even the real AMIGA
and C-64 fans, that would normally not look at a PC Demo, cauze they hate
PCs.

And as a matter of fact, there will be good prices to win

1st  price:  3000 German Marks
2nd price  2000 German Marks
3rd price   1000 German Marks

And all the others will get special prices like software and hardware, no
one will loose thiz way.

What do you think abou thiz ...

We are awaiting your feedback very soon, cauze the time is already running
... party time is coming
closer and closer.

Thank you for your attention,

MWS of RADWAR
