Rendezvous '93 Party report ------------------------------------- by Dolphin The "Rendezvous 1993" was arranged by Symbiosis in Kristiansand, Norway from July 30th to August 1st. Well, what can I say? It was a quite small party, with only about 300 visitors. The sound and audiovisual equipment was rather poor, but since the demo competition was cancelled, this didn't matter much. Here is a list of groups I noticed was present: Andromeda, Avalon, Balance, Cadaver, Crusaders, Cryptoburners(?), Destiny, Devils, Eon, Exile, Iris, Lemon., Majic 12, Noiseless, Pure Metal Coders, Spaceballs, Talent, The Pornos and of course Stone Arts... Here are the final results: MUSIC COMPETITION: 1. "Guitar Slinger" by Jogeir Liljedahl/Noiseless 2. "Distant Call" by Mr.Man/Andromeda 3. "Butterfly Syndrome" by Interphace/Andromeda 4. "Virtual Reality" by Peavey/Devils 5. "Jam Session" by B & H? 6. "Monday Morning" by Jelace/Destiny 7. "In the Papers" by Redferne/Devils 8. "Crab Stix" by Mutant/Stone Arts 9. "Tried, but Failed" by Scott/Spaceballs 10. "Flatulentic Drink" by Jason/Lemon./Crusaders 3GRAPHICS COMPETITION: 1. "Smoker" by Fairfax/Andromeda 2. "Red Terror" by BCR/Stone Arts 3. "Flying Hell" by Bridgeclaw/Iris 4. "Fist II" by Sixpack/Paramount Productions 5. "Falcon" by Foxy/? 6. "Waced" (Raytracing) by Jan Erik Arud 7. "Him & Her" by Morten/Indep. 8. "The Sentinel" by Osprey/Avalon 9. "Cyberdome" by Optic/Devils 10. "A Real Gun" (Raytracing) by Root/The Drittsekks INTRO COMPETITION: 1. "Nukem" by Base Power 2. "Symbiosistro" by Cadaver 3. "Blue Oyster" from Talent 4. "Spapit" by ??? DEMO COMPETITION: The demo competition was cancelled due to lack of contributions. Only three demos had been delivered... The first price in the music competition was an A1200, while the first price in the graphics competition was a Scala multimedia package. Commodore had promissed the arrangers an A4000 for the demo competition, but when they heard that only 300 persons were present, they changed the A4000 into an A1200 instead. The most drunk person on this party was beyond the shadow of the doubt, Scott/Spaceballs. He actually laid on the floor and puked blood! (Sorry for refering to you as a "wreck", Scott! -Ed.) The biggest disappointment was of course that the demo competition was cancelled, beside that the party was o.k, concidering how few people that were present. A thing that surprised me a bit was the high entrance fee, about $18,5. Especially when you consider that the competition prizes were sponsored. All in all, the best thing at this party was the hot-dogs they sold! Hmmm... I hope Symbiosis will arrange a sequel to "Rendezvous '93" next year!
