breakpoint 2008
category: general [glöplog]
Scamp: how about symbolic prizes for the compos ? Nothing really expensive. Would that help lower the entrance fee a little bit ?
wtf?! no idea how I added those empty lines :)
Keops, what happened to your Enter Key ? =)
It's ok.
ryg: Yeah, A4000s are crap aren't they. Especially when people start expanding them with PCI boards, PPCs and what not. :)
Still never heard of one catching fire before. I'm sure that was a fairly unique A4000 you had your hands on there.

keops: bp prizes have been traditionally low-profile compared to, say, assembly - i always saw a purpose for them to cover the travel costs, etc.

Maybe it usually covers yours and a the ones of a few other people. However, I doubt it covers those of the 500 remaining attendants :)
Can I come with my Tank ????

keops: the point was mainly that the prizemoney isnt that high already.
An hug should be enough as a prize :D
stefan, ok you win the poorness contest ;)
Yes!! What do i get, what do i get? Free supply of old newspapers?
you get a hug on honor system :D
heh, if you live relatively closeby it's travel expenses + two hamburgers at macdonalds halfway :D
Isn't there one of those places where the poor eat for free near breakpoint?
Gosh, my poor xernobyl, are you _that_ broke ? :(
i probably could go to BP by bike.. only 30km but since i hate RL i wont, haha.

Who would spend money in plane tickets without money to eat?Gosh, my poor xernobyl, are you _that_ broke ? :(
xernobyl: ffs, i'll buy you food. just buy the fucking plane ticket already.
xernobyl, take Niels up on his offer!
That was not what I meant. I wasn't talking about me.
Anyway I'll buy the plane tickets as soon as I get paid, and I'll get paid as soon as I finish coding this thing I'm suposed to be coding now.

like if _any_ scener would end up starving due to lack of money in a place filled with sceners.
i attended my first breakpoint with 0 euros - not the nicest way to do it but it was possible.
I attended my first Mekka-Symposium with zero euros in my pocket. In fact nobody had any euros at all. :(
