There will be some small space to install your Laptops ( please dont bring your MEGA Equipment to this party ) and work on your prods.

During the day we might hold some fun compos and a Beach soccer / Beach volleyball contest for the sporty sceners. Also a "who can do the biggest bomb into the pool" is something you can expect :)

Finally we gonna enjoy some DJ-Setups and having last drinks after ...

Usual weather conditions around Avignon at early October :

During daytime you can expect between 20 and 25 Degrees in the Evening it could get colder, we suggest to bring some warm gear for the evening. Swimming in the pool during daytime is absolutly NO PROBLEM, the place is protected against wind !



THE WEBSITE GETS UPDATED DURING THE WEEKEND !

why why why why WHY do I have to work that weekend ?? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGHHHH

Damn, this is bloody tempting ....

O_O

why are the graphics so ugly? :D

Whoa! Now that got me interested!

Wow, that's... different.

Everyone seems too love the new location, but I feel like I will miss my big "main" french demoparty, with big screen, big sound, big computers, (big geek attitude fuck yeah o/)...

Anyway, thumb up for the bold move.

This is going to be very nice. I'll be there for sure. I'm sorry Outline organizers - but the south of France beats the Netherlands in october by a large margin :)

my parents are living next to Avignon. If possible, we (me and gf) will pay you a visit.

So demos are going to be projected on the swimming pool?

Sexy.

oh I'd love to come! and if we're in Avignon maybe we could ask this guy to recite some demo code for us.

A demoparty with geeks in swimsuits (moule-bite in french), that will be awesome !

so I have to choose between this and norway in november. : \

well, Ill have to see about the deciding factor.

That's... well, unexpected to say the least :o
Very curious about how it will turn out. I'm not yet sure if I'll be there though.

metoikos: let me help you there!



Though the best case would be to do both. At least that's what I'm trying to do :)

awww, can't make it :(

dfox - its out of my hands. dependent on three factors outside my control. we shall see. *hopes*

I really, really wish I were going to about ten parties this year (not counting the two I organize).

Thats the stat i love most :

October . Average cloud coverage


To explain : NO DATA = BLUE, CLEAN BLUE SKY :)
