Or at least its a nice conspiracy theory. ;)

Archmage: While that might be true, it does not change the fact that they DID go out early and said that they hadn't decided yet, and that they wanted to take some time with it. And that's the only sensible thing to do IMO.

gloom: the c64.sk one is from wikinews and it would be okayish I think.. now i should just find the time to rewrite it in German.. argh :-D

Kusma: Ok. At least they ended up with the only sensible decision as well.

Btw: Strangely enough NRK has now linked to both the Solskogen and the Kindergarden webpages. JSYK.

Maybe you get to sell some of those Solskogen 2006-tshirts now! \o/

Kusma: when the bylarm agent oyesten (spell?) heard about them being rippers and realised how much more hype they got from that, he decided to help them. For example, when the original artists didnt want to allow FFF to use the songs after he begged them too, he tried to find ways to see if they could really proove that they did the music first, and also made FFF do statements like "theese nerds stole our music we didnt steal theirs" to add to the hype. When nothing worked and threats about legal actions rounded up around him he gave up and abandoned them. Another reason for waiting so long before removing them from the By:larm festival (he was informed aprox 3 months with prof, before removing them) was that it helped them to get alot of gigs just by the credability of being booked at by:larm. On these gigs they performed stolen songs, took pictures of the money they got from it with topics like "rich biches" and when people stated that they made money with stolen songs they made responses like "hahahaha". The question was not for them to decide whatever they wanted FFF or not it was to see if it was possible spite all the prof of stolen material, and use the situation as much as possible in the meantime, untill it started to hurt by:larms credability by having them booked. He seems to know how to exploit a hype as much as possible.

Don't mess with the demoscene. word.




bitch.

I never said so...


that's what I said :)

lindie: yes you did


The quote you present state more or less the opposite of what you said. Not immediately dropping them means that they needed more time to decide in my interpretation.

dubmood: This is news to me, and I've followed the case loosely, so I'd like to see some sources for your accusations.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to clear by:Larm's name in any way, but I think people tend to jump to conclutions a bit too hastily.

he did get sounds out of me, though. the sound of my head hitting my desk repeatedly in frustration.

tmb: I prefer that version =)

lindie: I agree with you on the last part, at least ;)

excellent article by Grendel (in finnish + english summary)

dagbladet.no, the web-version of the biggest norwegian newspaper has covered the case as well. (and more kg/solskogen press coverage \o/)

oldschoolers around:
where did I see that logo let's say 16~18 years ago ?

DefJam? Rebels? Spreadpoint? Fairlight? Paradox? Majic12? or an old Amiga/Atari game?
