This demo won us a party-supply bulk box of 100 "Schaumküsse" (Which, I think, were called differently back then). We started eating them on the return trip in the regional train to Hamburg. I don't recall whether we ever finished that box or what else happend to it.

we once won a third place (I think) at the meteoriks for Demoscene Battle Cards, and the A4 paper we got was promptly spent by drunkenly getting beer on it as we sat on the floor watching the Amiga compo!

A quite memorable prize were the vouchers from Flug.de, which we got at Mekka/Symposium 2K. A few months later XXX and I used them to fly over to Assembly; which was a hell of a trip. At that time they still served hard alcohol during the flight...
