read everything about the saturne party III here:
THE PARTY PLACE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Party took place in Chelles (ca. 40km) away
from Paris-Centrum. It was not very difficult to
find although there weren't any signs.
ENTRANCE
~~~~~~~~
The entry fee was 120 Ff, and you were stamped by
the old saturne II stamp (where you want) ;^). The
organisers did count 620 people came to the party.
THE ORGANISERS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At all, the organisers were very friendly and
helpful. You couldn't notice any security guards
standing around like in other parties and so the
people were also very peaceful.
THE HALL
~~~~~~~~
There were two halls. One big, and one not so big.
;^) In the main-hall, there was a 6mx4m screen and
a Barco 8000 Projector. The Projector was very
bright and good to look at!
Unbelievable but true: Power-Failures were not
rare!
PARLEZ VOUZ ENGLESE?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All the time, the OPs spoke french! Everybody un-
derstood what happened at the party except people
from holland, austria, germany, spain and other!
(c'est la vie ?????) Also the Info-Sheets for Com-
petitions, Times etc. was written down in french!
Maybe, they should had at least one organizer who
could speak english. And they even didn't under-
stand these magic words: PARLEZ ENGLESE, S'IL VOUS
PLAIT!
THE RULES
~~~~~~~~~
Smoking and alcohol (and of course drugs) were not
allowed. Nobody despised the rules. The partyplace
stayed clean all the time. There was an open air
place inside the hall to smoke.
SLEEPING ROOMS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For sleeping, you had to go upstairs and sleep in
in a little passage. It was too small and not
enough for everybody who wanted to sleep. And
there also was lights in the sleeping places where
you hardly could sleep! So, many guys had to sleep
in the main-hall in front of their computers.
BON APPETIT!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Outdoors there was a pizza-bus where you could buy
a pizza (made in france) without taste for 40 Ff.
It was also possible to buy something in the hall
24 hours.
THE MORALE
~~~~~~~~~~
Some AMIGA-guys destroyed some pentiums and Ataris
with big sticks & swords outdoors in front of 300
One of the guys hurt his hand, but he wasn't to
stop hitting the desktop of the PC!
In the night, four really good looking chicks dan-
ced (nearly naked ;^) on the stage for our amuse-
ment with cool music! (that was great!)
After this, some scene guys danced on the stage
behind the curtain with 'spaceballs demo #1' in
the front. But after this, the party was very bo-
ring. Nobody was drunk (no beer), nobody was high
(no drugs) ;^) Everything was quiet, no action for
the rest of the time!
WHAT ELSE HAPPENED ?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Uyanik/TRSI won some of his own CD for the Wild
Compo! (great)
- Merlin-M! and Evrimsson (that's me) joined TRSI.
... for 3 minutes! Now, they are also ex-TRSI
members. Then, they were kicked because of inac-
tivity!
- Two PC guys didn't play DOOM - really!!(no, just
kidding, they did!)
THE COMPETITIONS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The worst and first competition was the music com-
petition. There was a PREVOTING for every tune.
The best tunes (tunes from famous musicians etc.)
were SORTED OUT by an unknown jury! Only big tech-
no and sampled shit (400K-800K) were played!
Additionally, Protracker-Tunes and Multichannel-
Tunes were mixed together. It seemed that the or-
ganisers didn't know the difference, maybe that's
why they played every tune on a PC!
All Powerpacked-AMIGA-Tunes were not prevoted to
to play(because pc)
Maybe AMIGA-Tunes with weird Filenames didn't pre-
vote to play(because pc) We learned: PC SUXX again
and: PREVOTING from people with no idea-suxx too!
The Gfx competition came very late (at 5pm). Many
people were already sleeping. And by a mistake of
the operators, one picture was not shown.
The demo and other competitions weren't on time,
and all people from other countries but france
couldn't understand when the compos would be
shown, because they used to speak french all the
time!
VOTING
~~~~~~
Everybody got a voting-book at the main entrance.
The voting sheets were collected after every com-
petition in big boxes.
