Bomb Finland? That would make Boozembly difficult...

besides, it's norway which has oil :)

didnt they blow up the boozembly hills anyway? the workers could always use a hand.

hey, i was fine with unseen's comment.. but then i'm a regular viewer of the colbert report.

yeah it looks like a really freaking cool and very attractively organised party. Kind of hoping our syntax party takes similar vain.

<JOKE>omfg it seems to be meeting of liberal, hippies and hackers (those nasty people who steal our information also known as terrorists). liberals are people who lie about climate warming, hippies, they just smoke pot, hackers.. well kevin mitnick, hippie, liberal and commie!</JOKE>

Just wanted to let everyone know that Blockparty is in less than two weeks! We added a bunch of prizes, a kick-ass competition machine, and our speakers list is completely finalized, with lots of cool speakers (not to mention the included admission to the Notacon convention as well).

go blockparty go \o/

fuckings... i'm in the US and A when the party is... but in San Fransisco :(
how typicall :D

So what's a demoparty like in the US?

doom: Short, closes at night, and no prods.. or something to that effect :)

Like ? ;)

Looking forward to partyreports and pixxures. Ok?

dont worry, no legalize involved this time.

jscott: I supposed remote entries are not allowed? None from the crew can make it to Cleveland :)

Goes from Friday (Thursday night, really) to Sunday afternoon, 24 hours, small number of prods compared to well-established parties, minimal ass-rapings (we promise!).

keops: No remote entries, we wanted to encourage in-person interaction.

Ok. We will release our stuff at the same time, too bad :)

No worries. Good luck on the new stuff!

I just moved from LA to Columbus, and my Desktop didn't survive the trip (I think the hard drives are fine). So basically, I'm stuck here twidling my thumbs while the party creeps up.
Anyways, can I use the compo PC for a quicktro, before the competition? :)
If anyone else would be willing to lend a decent rig for a night, that would be pretty sweet too.

jscott: I'll see with the others, we could release it at your party, out of any compo.

Is that kb in the picture?

jscott: you're denying an entry from keops?! aw, c'mon! oh well, that would be horribly unfair to the other competitors anyway. :)

also, how much non-pouet promotion have you done? hit the old irc channels like #trax and #coders? do you expect more notacon visitors this year than last? from the blockparty community page, i'm worried about a low scener turnout. i swear, european sceners are more aware and excited about blockparty than americans are. :/

nezbie: damn.. i hope they give you a deadline extension. :)

as for the fun factor, well, this is a "con" event, but, it should fit somewhere between pilgrimage and breakpoint.

i should probably get working on my presentation at some point in the near future...

What you currently do for a living, are you by any chance a manager? ;-)
