ASSEMBLY Summer 2012
category: parties [glöplog]
you just wanna win 5 fingerprint readers cos your obscure 320x256x2bit picture for the display of the 20yo fridge of your mum can end up 1st out of 1 in the 'havocplague's obscure oldskool graphics compo'-compo! busted!
No no Maali, I want the thumbnail readers! Or possibly, a signed basketballbat.
DiamondDie, trolling much these days are you? I guess that's the contribution that makes you a "demoscener".
Everyone else, appreciate the positive feedback. Yes, ASM is a different beast to other parties, but we do care about the scene.
Gaming tournaments are part of the attraction for the people who come and are an important part of the program. That said, they are not on the big screen this year as we made room for e.g. Scene.org awards. We also failed on some scheduling & tournament execution years ago (with reference to that overrunning game tournament). We've gotten more experienced since.
See you next week!

This one's going to be my first demoparty. Thought of making a demo, but realized it wouldn't be good enough, and it's probably too late now.
It's never too late for a crappy 1k!
But I don't know assembly or any language the oldskool folk wouldn't laugh at, and I'm not even in a group, so I'm kind of screwed.
Well, there's still HTML5 + DOM Javascript. Even some oldskool people use it and apparently like it.

Your first demo is never good enough, so you might as well just do it ;)
I'll take the ASM weekend as a chance for a pre-OVOLO prod-finishing streamwatching marathon
I wonder when the schedule will be released..
fragment +1
'Making demos for advertising and creative industries'
Don't feed the trolls Abyss!
the schedule is up
A bit unfair IMO to give 1k intro more money prize than Oldskool and real wild.
There are probably more work, and resources doing a good oldskool demo than a 1k.
Is it the low amount of entries the last years that is the reason?

my guess is the low amount of entries, the relatively low quality and the complete absence of newcomers - plus the fact that reasonable prizes do help when you're introducing a new compo and want to attract participants.
So hows is the finnnnnnnnnnnnnnnssssssssss doing?
out of curiosity why are the starcraft 2 prizes in $ instead of €?
I guess it's more in line with the "e-sports" community, which is far less Europe-centric than f.e. the demoscene.
two days!
.. tomorrow my jurney should start. bah sucks that it will not be any Assembly for me this year as I really likes it.
hurhurhur
"Thursday 22:00 [...] 1k intro compo deadline "

I came to Assembly because I happened to be in Helsinki. I'm in the DemoScene area and I don't know anyone!
Fizzer: then go to bzm and you will make some friends. :)
