one hell of a deja vu indeed :)

alcohol-wise you've had the choice for a while now, you know (breakpoint vs the gathering). i guess having to actually make the choice is just more apparent this year (revision vs the gathering).

reed: Not quite. You can drink all you want on EasterGarden, so alcohol alone isn't really be a good reason to go to Revision over TG/EG. Not that there isn't other good reasons to choose Revision, of course.

Yes, none of us have ever enjoyed a beer or two at parties like Assembly, which shares the no alcohol policy with The Gathering, have we now Reed? ;)

They should have a policy where they only sell you alcohol if you enter a compo.

i think we've already established that, to some sceners, drinking beer at a shadow party such as boozembly just feels like too much unnecessary hassle, and those sceners would gladly attend another major event with a more straightforward setting instead, if one happened to take place at the same time :)

(for the matlocks trying to read between the lines - no, i'm not saying that alcohol per se would be a definitive factor on whether to go to a demoparty or not, it's just one of the many things that tend to tip the scales one way or another. and it's also the topic of the thread :)

oh noes, diversity in party choices :(

I for one hate hate hate, that the two parties is at the same time. I'd like to visit TG some time before I die, and I'll miss all of my norwegians frie... people that recognize me when I come to bother them.

idea: put some mushrooms in your non-alcoholic beverage.

Being someone who probably has taken in more alcohol than all of you combined (except for Arcane/HJB) I actually think this might be a nice idea.

Unless you're dry plek that sounds like a challenge to me.

Enter a compo and qualify would be a nice addition :)

History tells us DDT, Pantaloon and MAWI are the champions of that particular title :)

HUm, it looks like a completly new rule indeed. I guess they just made that up for this years edition only. Such a refreshing concept.

I bet there will be an ocean of nervous system stimulants there though in the form of different brands of cola. Which is the stepping stone to speed, crack cocaine, nitrous oxide and other depravity.
