Thanks to the organizers for all their hard work, i really enjoyed my time at Demobit! Most things have already been said (and please consider all the positives repeated here), so just one thing i'd like to add: i think the entry fee was high. I understand there are costs, but compared to a nearby party (Function) it was more expensive with weaker tech and - just in general - less things provided. Oh and the last day noon prizegiving is not a good idea imho.

I'd especially like to thank Gargaj and Smash for their presentations lacking any kind of raymarching.

What others said :)

But.
Stuff @ scene.org = when?

I'll get back to the rest of topics, especially video lag issue.

For the notes about Sunday's prize giving. I can hardly imagine to pull it after the compos at night. We have more reasons not to like it. Leave it for Sunday as other parties do suit us way better. We could organize better and have it at 11:00. In case, you can't be present: it's no problem to handle it via bank transfer/post. It finishes the party, so in our eyes, it belongs officially to the last day in reasonable after-party hours.

Regarding beam team duties. I could use some consultancy from someone in pro sector of broadcasting to consult or let set up and control operation of video gear I can bring and rent. The need of processor to convert to SDI signal on stage is essential to hold recording and streaming.
For live VJs, it's a must to prepare a solution to split HDMI signal with 1-frame delay right after the laptop and have the ability conveniently to send it to beamer directly while maintaining the current connection. My apologies to all the VJs for any inconveniences!

aceman: I just uploaded everything, so as soon as a scene.org admin can move it from incoming to the demobit2018 folder, it should be available :)

Everyhing approved, except for pc_demo/its-hortobagy.zip which was a corrupt zip file.

oki, repacked that one with 7zip and reuploaded.
happy birthday by the way, menace ;)

maali: Thanks :)

The repacked file is fine, and approved.

Yay! :)

Ok, first of all: big thanks to all the orgas of the party. Their hospitality and care for visitors was exceptional.
As a guest I was treated wonderfully. People from the staff took care of everything (accomodation etc.), I didn't have to worry about anything. Really, this was much more than I expected.

I'd especially like to say *thank you* to Natalia for taking care of everything, being pro and super nice - the right person, in the right place! Zden, for helping us with technical issues. Well, all people from the staff, including reception desk, were friendly and helpful, even people responsible for food (which was yummy, btw.)

Not the most important, but the prizes were great too (especially "art jury award" was a nice suprise). However, the main advantage of the party was friendly, almost family-like atmosphere (imho). 5/5 - higly recommended :)

@lesnik: Thank you for your ultra-awesome performance and contributions! It was my big pleasure to help :) ❤️
