About the Demo
--------------
This demo made the second place at the demo competition of THE PARTY 3 in
Herning / Denmark.
This demo is designed to work also on not-so-powerfull computers. In fact
I've tested it on a 286 and it worked fine.
There are some rumors, that there are some bugs on a 486-66 with a local bus
ET-4000.... Hmm. strange. But hey, just let it run on a slower computer ;-)
The demo needs 600.000 Bytes of free conventional Memory. No EMS is needed.
In fact, the demo won't run with an EMS-driver.
The demo uses exclusively the Gravis Ultrasound for music output. A 256k GUS
will do.
Release Fuck-Ups
----------------
Well, it's no secret, that the so-called 'Amiga-organizers' kinda fucked up
parts of the pc-part of the party. Their Masterpiece was to force all atten-
dants of the demo competition to release their demos, even if they were not
finished. Well. I know that the Demo of Stone/Dust isn't finished yet, my
demo was only finished 95%, and the demo by Infiny wasn't absolutely ready
either!
So the top 3 demos weren't finished, but still they wanted them released.
I talked to Lord Cyrix / Access Denied, and he told me that I've got time
till the 10th of January to finish everything, so that sounded o.k. to me!
But today (which is the 7th of January, the day I actually finished the demo)
I learned that the demo-fragments where released allready. Hmm.
Well. THIS is the final version of GBU, so it's not my fault you had to down-
load it twice.
//ReeBoK//: I really have to say: Who ever spreaded the unfinished versions
of the demos should better hide himself well, 'cause I will find you and then
you will get some nice things to hear (and actually they will be supported
be some kicks in your ass!!!) Fuck you, son of a bitch, how could you dare
to realese our work without permission =B-(
We get you asshole! (this is not a promise, it's a fact!)
I've changed my Name
--------------------
I've deceided to drop my Handle. I don't want to be called Rick Dangerous any
longer. Simply call me by my real name: Erik Pojar.
I WILL NOT read any letters which have written 'Rick Dangerous' on it. I HATE
getting such letters, because my postman always looks at me in such a strange
way.. So do me a favour and simply call me Erik!

Messages & Greets

The Greets go to all in S!P, especially to my old friends, Firefly & Ulrik.
I don't greet all my Austrian pals here, 'cause I see them anyway every day
at university...
Greets to all I met at the Party 1,2 and 3 except the fucking lamer of
Irresistible Works who really bothered me quite badly...
Well. Here are a few personal messages from me to some of my friends in the
scene. There's no order at all, I've written parts of it before and some other
parts after the party.
