might give away my C64 hardware at Breakpoint

category: general [glöplog]
My old stuff (C64, floppy drives, power supply, catridges, joysticks) is unused since several years, lying around at my parents attic. Realizing thats pretty sad, but I would be even more sad throwing it all away. So i would like to give at away to active sceners for free. If there is anyone interested I try to bring everything to breakpoint this year.

TGGC: make a fun compo about it. auction like.

"What crazy thing would a scener do to get that stuff?"

Collecting ideas, let the audience decide and after the scener made the funny things he offered to do give it to him.

chrchr i still cant forget the 1.5L Coke drinking compo at TP.

How about just donating it to the compo prize pool?

Lame. It's more fun if you can make people do stupid stuff for it :)

somehow i suspect tggc might want to give the kit to someone who actually wants it and would make use of it.. or am i just being sensible? ;P

Give it away with a condition: they have to use it to make a demo. (Maybe with something like "if the demo is not done in 6 months, you have to pass it to somebody else" to avoid nvidia demobox style hating)

What psonice said.
That's how i do it usually - and it sometimes actually works :)

Give it to a LCP organizer, so they can use it as a compo prize for next LCP.

evilpaul: Exacly what I meant by "active sceners".

Anyway, thanks for all your suggestions.

I bet pretty much every LCP visitor has at least 2 of those already.

put the machine on a table at bp and have fast demo-compo, whoever makes best demo in _one_ hour during the party gets the machine

Well, plunging out random to SID and VIC won't make a winner demo then I hope.
