>you have written/voted for diskmags/chartsmags in atleast 3 diferent platforms.

At least, I get one ;)

> ... you feel the sudden urge to watch heaven seven on the pc's running screensavers in the hardware store.

Hmm,. once upon a time, I explained about the demoscene with a letter in a famous greek magazine and pointed a link to Heaven7. Few weeks later, a friend told me "Hey! I have seen H7 running endlessly in the PCs of a computer store window!!!"

p.s. I enjoyed it. More threads like this!

I like what gargaj said. Why does there have to be so much hate?
I suppose utah would count to some people as the middle of nowhere.

Does winning a prize for a picture you spent 10 minutes scrawling, and winning nothing for the demos you spent dozens of hours coding count?

- at least not when you start a thread about when one is "officially" a demoscener

I spilled beer on some warez d00d'z portable hard disk array on solskogen. does that make him a demoscener?
- You have a razor and a lipstick on your bathroom shelf, and you use both, but everybody thinks it's normal, since you can do nice 64Ks. ;)

Anyway, returning to the first one:
- a famous scener spilled beer/salmiaki on your keyboard/phone.

Well. A famous scener, so to say, a scener, spills beer/salmiakki, on my keys, OK. But is he qualified as a scener by being involved in a similar act? I mean, who spilled drinks on his keyboard? Is the one who spilled, a scener? Just by spilling, are you one? And so on.

I can see a flaw in this "you must have a scener spill beer on your keyboard to become a scener" rule. The first ever scener would have no scener to spill the beverage. Or was there some legendary incident where two guys who met all the other requirements simultaneously spilled beer on each others keyboards, before agreeing to work on an intro and thereby starting the scene?

...your mother caught you with your cock in the vacuumcleaner at night. [no, not based on own experience, weird imagination did it for me]
psonice, well which was first, the egg or the chicken (so to speak)? ;)

the duck!
teel: well, think about it, if there wasn't that unlikely double beer spilling incident, then it means that all the sceners got the scenerhood from the original scener, who must have been a fake. Therefore there are only false sceners!

You certainly are a demoscener if you are 30 and still haven`t touched a girl/woman except your mom :)
