  Yes, the party place and everything... We want to make it up to you at least through a good party, and as far as I'm concerned, also a good programme. If you haven't noticed yet, all the crazy compos are announced at Forever Party News, http://forever.c64.sk/ And there are more to come in the following days, stay tuned!

  OK, sorry for that rude words. Will be happy for everything. Just try to prepare more tables. There was almost no space for all last year. I hope my car will be ready (I had accident and it's broken, having service). If not, I can't come for the whole time.

  Ellvis (unoficially) confirmed party place. It will be the same building and room as last year - the school canteen not far from (former) Somer Club.

  I also like Cactus more. I wanted to change my nick many years ago, but it was stupid idea, because all people know me under nick Factor6. And if I changed it, it would change my "identity" a little bit. Factor6 is quite stupid nick, I think. But I let it be.

  Well, actually... As far as I know, DJ Gruby is still the former Cactus/Samar but JTR and I have always thought Cactus was a much better nick so from time to time (almost always) we joke on this topic. This mustabin one of those times.

 sun|22o3 subject: Thanks! wrote: eL aI eS iU

  Thanks for a great party and congratulation on winning "find-a-partyplace compo" :-)

I'm happy I could spend almost 5 nice days in Trencin and I'm happy that I managed to get the 2nd place in the Atari Music Compo (even thou one of guys forgot to submit his votesheet - had he submitted the sheet I would've won by 2 points :-D )

Hope to see you again soon (if not in July, prolly in March next year)

Thanks once again!


 thu|18o3 subject: no more compos please! wrote: F6

  I don't have time to make ZX music, ZX gfx, Atari gfx, and even sometimes C64 music and gfx entry. So, no more extra compos, please!

For 48K demos, they work on 128K too. One can put in there a message saying "Hey, this demo works on ZX 48K!". And it can increase voting for this demo.

SID sound compo - hm, although there is no editor on Speccy for this (one must own Atari ST or its emulator) and there is no easy way how to play it unless you're smart programmer and you time your own sidsound player, it's senseless. Pure AY has still many possibilities. And what about C64 users, who don't have speaker? They could feel second-rated.

Digital music - hm, if so, it would have to be separate compo for all three platforms. No synthesis alowed, just samples. But, who really wants this? I love synthesis and sound generators :) If I want to listen digital music, I go to Amiga party.


 thu|18o3 subject: more music compos wrote: ellvis

  well, maybe some exotic music competitions can have own place (apart from the main happening) somewhere at the side of party place. but we're not big enough to do it - it will be a matter of 4 people there. at this moment it look to me like a divide of the organisation. on the other side, rules are up on the scene organisers, i am here just to say my own opinion.


 thu|18o3 subject: Re: some thoughts wrote: MISTER BEEP

  >I'll probably look like negative or backward person, here's my view:
---------
Oh, you don't. Not you.
1. Well, that's what I thought more/less (I mean: not too many demos).
Although the situation with compatibility is another matter and is very close to C=64 / C=128 but another machine is "almost dead".
No prob.
2.
>We have 3 scenes and time for music competitions are quite long
>(understand that this is very subjective, for you as musician it can be

-----------
Yeah, that's what also I thought. However this situation isn't as easy as previous point because there is no sense for Z80 musicians to make music for totally different chip (AY) but actually there are maybe 4 of us now so somehow I feel you're kind of right.



3.

Maybe that's a solution. I don't know. SidSound mode is OK too, btw.




>It's cool you let us know what we are doing wrong ;-)

I wasn't even _close_ to it. Just was wondering about people abandoned on 8bit scene, that's all. :)

Thanks for your time.


 thu|18o3 subject: Re: some thoughts wrote: mikezt

  Hello Mr. Beep,

I'll probably look like negative or backward person, here's my view:

1. Why to do it? What will be positive effect of this step? I think there are not so many demogroups on the scene that are able to fit 2 competitions (it's 6 demos!). ZX Spectrum 128k is closely 100% compatible with 48k version so it's no problem to present 48k demo in the 128k competition (and as you probably noticed we have mixed beep in the sound output too).

2. Teoretically is no problem to repeat the competition. This year noone made any speaker music. But there's one thing here, I don't want to put it into the main competitons time. We have 3 scenes and time for music competitions are quite long (understand that this is very subjective, for you as musician it can be very short time, but for musically deaf programmer it can be very long time).

3. I'm thinking about this too. Not to add another compo, but extend rules in music competiton for any method of creating sound (so, not just samples but for example digisid routine). But I'm not sure if this is step forward.

Anyway, thank you for feedback. It's cool you let us know what we are doing wrong ;-)

 thu|18o3 subject: creamd@c64.sk wrote: Roman

  In my opinion, extension of number of the compos is way to hell. We should rather extend the rules of the compo to accept differences that are acceptable. E.g. music compo allowing both analog and digital (sampled) stuff.. is possible. Not allways digital sounds will assure you the highest place anyway. I like covers but I would rather disallow covers in compos ;-) (we don't have them in C64 music compo ;-). As for covers this is only exceptiong where I would be willing to have separate compo (but mixed for all 3 plattforms). I mean. if you do cover.. the plattform doesn't matter. So for single plattforms there would be "original composition" music compos +1 more music compo for all covers for any plattform. As for other categories. I think it's best working when you have traditional compos and fixed ammount of them. PC parties suffer from the every little stupid compo you can imagine and when they think about optimizing they usually cut the ammount of oldschool plattform categories or mix them together. I don't want us to go that way. GFX, MSX, INTRO, DEMO (+mixed wild, and mixed realtime) always worked the best, people should invest their time to do that, not to waste their time on some new categories.


 thu|18o3 subject: some thoughts wrote: MISTER BEEP

  Hi there.
Some thought are arriving:
1) You could consider splitting cathegories into "Spectrum 128 demo" and "Spectrum 48 demo", like advised guys from C=16 on POUET. Well, it's just a thought anyway (sometimes there are too small number of production of course).
2) Last year "Z80 music compo" was a cool idea. Maybe it could be revived. Although I'm not sure if it's a good idea for multiplatform party; I'm just thinking loudly. ;)
3) I think you could try to add "digital music AY compo" apart from the standard 50hz.
Well, I don't know, just thought.
Greetings.

   Splatterpunk: And you don't even know that originally we planned that I'd be a crossover between Gillian Thunderhead (the dwarf from Golden Axe) and Fox Mulder (X-Files), as we wanted to name the party "The Golden X-Files".
CreaMD: Thanks for standing up for my defense. But you forgot about two most important things: the teplaky and the parrot. :)
Anyway, the craziest creation of the party was the scene from Show It when PCH+CreaMD were showing Rocky Horror (and Sad guessed it correctly and fast).

 mon|16o3 subject: quick english explanation.. wrote: Roman

  The dude complaints about one of the organizers (probably me) who have been arrogant at the dudes (5) students of the schools (members of the robotics circle which resides in the basement under the staircase right next to the party place).

I'm, explaining why I have thrown two people out (based on the bad experience with Forever 2 (maybe some of you remember)). I'm also explaining that noone told us about the dude from robotics circle being allowed to use the toilets at our place and also that we have negotiated that the door next to toilets will be closed (later I've managed to have them open because we needed the space for sleeping room there).

I'm apologising.

  I must thank the organizers for a great party. Even there was a huge problem with Merina party place (occured on Friday, they canceled the party hall reservation), the organisers did great work that they were able to get another room in the building nearby. Without this all the Forever neXt would be cancelled. I think is was a great example of 'what could happen and nobody expects it'. Also thanks for nice organization, there were common problems with setting up compo machines but they finally made it. As always, it was a nice party and I hope Forever will happen next year again!
