Ok, we've just launched the Breakpoint 2005 website. It includes background information about the new UFO party location, so you'll probably want to check it out.

Comments in this thread welcome.

Also, later today, after the TUM Demo compo, the Invitation Demo is going to be released, so stay tuned.

Forgot the mega secret URL.

As a compensation for that we'll have a really nice beer garden and well, a small bonfire.

Hehehe. Small. *chuckles*

holla @ scamp! \o/ it looks like i may be returning..

phoenix: nice, same for me. ;)

anyone have any idea whether there'll be a mac compo this year?

evilpaul: depends. Last year everyone cried loud for a mac compo and in the end we only got three entries, two of them of quite questionable quality. You might understand that the incentive to repeat this is not too high for us. But we'll see.

werent you bp orgas considering combined platforms compos this year?

kb, lol. noone wanted a mac compo that was the point.

its a shame the party moved tho :(

ps: no, as always, i am considering it and the rest of the compo orgas don't want to hear a word of it. sigh. :)

ryg: atleast allow mac/xbox/pc to be in same compo.. or well, whatever you guys decide.. i just want good demos, dont give a shit in how many compos its divided in anyways :)

Is the swimming pool history too?

doh: Well, the buildings are next to each other. But during easter, the swimming pool is usually closed, so the anti-sceners-killing-themselves-with-water supervisior needs to get his holidays cancelled. As the "Rundsporthalle" got tons of showers, the swimming hall isn't really needed either.

Anyway, in case there is lots of demand for the swimming hall, I'll re-add that feature.

swimming pool...

it is not THAT important, but one of the greatest moments of breakpoint for me was the cleansing of all the drinking sins and compos frustrations in the swimming pool. that was like... unbelieavable.

but hey, showers are good enough!

and now that there are showers closer, can we have "physical" compos please?

*hint* SOCCER *hint* :D

75 square meters big screen ?!? respect !

jeenio: We'll access to a huge sports place directly at the hall. In the times its not used as a heliopter port (yes, this feature will probably also return) a few games of soccer could be done there.

i hereby propose a game of lobstarrs3 vs the_non_panamerican_world

soccer game that is :)

Combine the compos! It might persuade some Amiga demo makers to switch platforms!!! :)

Soccer? I've never heard of it.

Oh wait! -- over here in Panamerica we call it fútbol.

:-)

over here in the province of spain offered to the brazilians as a peace offer we call it "bola carago!" (i.e: "bamos jogar à bola carago!", "ontem tive a ver a bola carago!", "hoje há bola carago?")

here is an excerpt written by a great known portuguese poet surrounding this great mytical sport that has, for so a many great number of years, beseeched the love from our hearts, that more deeply expresses our feelings towards this honorable and manly hymn to the sports kind:
"bamos la cambada, tudo a molhada, isto é futebol total.
deixem-se de tretas, força nas canetas, e o melhor é portugal."

xD

Great! Finally a Partyplace which is not completely isolated because it's surrounded by a desert and Weinberge.
And better heating I suppose!! :D

I'll hug you again elend <3

Shane: Shut up!
