Solaris - 8th at Kindergarten, aka What was the demoscene again?
category: general [glöplog]
wouldnt that make your 'open discussion' not much of a discussion if you tell the non-believers to fuck off?
well, not when they told me to fuck off :P
at least I will complain that the name of the party is misspelled in the topic... damn you trace!!
Anyway, I won't bother writing more to this thing because it's a neverending story. people will always think different, so I see no point anymore.

argh leia, now you make me listen to Limahl _AGAIN_ :P
woohoo. yet another proof of how much some people care
mov cares <3
hollowman: oh come on. You want a thread with one billion posts where I say "I think the demoscene shouldn't be a superstrict place" while you say different? I find that a waste of time. I already said that, people know it now.
I understand your point, and I understand it well. I also understand that this is something that won't change, since you can't force people to change their voting style. If you do that you get the problems Lug00ber already mentioned. A jury will always mirror the taste of the person selecting the jury, etc..
I'm pessimistic of nature, so I don't think the tenency of getting weird results at small parties will change. (For example. Since Kindergarden had about 50 visitors, out of which not everyone voted, it's almost impossible to get very fair results since even one person voting can affect a lot). This thread clearly shows that more people are in it for the fun than for the strict and fair, at least out of the ones caring enough to answer. Of course, one can argue that you should disqualify all the joke prods or whatever, but then you'll have a whole new discussion about what humour is, who's joking and so forth.. And still it wouldn't be right.
That's why I won't bother to answer more, it's just going around the same circle again and again, I'd rather spend that time doing something else, like getting pictures to Slenpung.
Maali: I might have the video. At least arto does :)

so whats your favorite beer ppl? :P
Pilsner Urquel
Guess how the Arrogant Bastard Truck voted in this very compo?
HOW HE FUCKING FELT.
And when I'm at TUM, I'm gonna vote how I feel. At Icon07, How I feel. And at Breakpoint, I'm gonna vote how I feel. I'm gonna fucking vote how I fucking feel AND IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT YOU CAN JUST GO WAAAAAH. For 7 pages. On the Pouet BBS.
Cuz it's still a free scene. And you have EVERY RIGHT TO BITCH. I also have every right to vote however the FUCK I want.
And as for the topic, why the hell are some of you acting like namevoting is a new thing? Did I miss something?
Rankings doesn't mean shit. What matters is contributing and participating. A good portion of the voting people will always vote "strange", it's just a bit more obvious on smaller parties.
Yeah, and MAD PROPS to Arcane for Participating.
And fuckings to lamers who couldn't even get thier fucking machine set up with a god damn C compiler. Or take time from work to DO something. Fucking lamers need to fix that problem before they go posting about how they fucking feel about voting. WAAY more important shit to do than post on the Pouet BBS.

So truck, what about doing a good prod for TUM, and a good prod for Icon07, and also a good prod for Breakpoint instead of just voting?
..and don't forget to come to inérciademoparty2005!
... and don't forget to DO something.
green is good.
the votinglist for demos looked actually good!!
once i started reading it upside down =)
trace just put in the your comporules that credits and greetings are not allowed or something
can we discuss how the world SHOULD be aswell? ;) I feel we're on a roll.
my perfect world
I want a world with no computers! and where all ladies wants me but dont annoy me when I dont want them :)
The world should be like that.
This thread has become stupid. ...oh wait, it already was from the beginning. Carry on.

This is just an open discussion of different view of the demoscene, if you get annoyed of the discussion go to a Random Image thread or something more entertaining.
Who made you king of the internet?
As for the rest. The lovely boys and girls from Limp Ninja always do something nice with undeserved loot, so I guess we're in the clear? :)
