POSADAS PARTY REPORT ---------------------------------- (Wind & Leunam of TNC) You will surely have read the Spanish Scene History and, if not, you should read it now! The last party we talked about, the Posadas Party, was the last one held here, and the one we will review here. Place: It was held in Posadas, a little town near Cordoba, at 100km from Seville. We used the auditorium as party place, with a swimming pool at our disposition to help overcoming the 50°C temperature. Really hot! Organizers: "Nivel 7" organized this party, with a very good work during and before the party. They even got female organicers to help, and very good-looking ones indeed. Compo Machine: It was an A1200, 030/50 and 4mb Fast, altrought none of the demos presented used it to full extent. The winning demo and intro, for example, run on standart A500! Voting System: One member from each group went to a jury, where they first saw and voted for the entries from 1 to 5 points. One couldn't vote for his own group, thus giving it 0 points. Competitions: Demos: There were only three entries, but with a very good level.The allowed size was two disks. The third placed one, called "YOU", was made by Metro. Altrought it has no outstanding effects, it got a good design and, surpringsly, a very good chipmusic ( 40kb uncrunched! ). It doesn't work on a standart A1200 due to a small error at assembling, but a fixed version is on the way. Second place to "BACK 2 LIVING" by Necropolis, with good effects such as tunnels and motion blur. Also works on A1200. First place to "BATMAN VUELVE" by Batman Group. This one is A500, but got ALL the points from the jury. It simply doesn't seem a Spanish demo, due to a very good design, coding, music.... all!! Intros: Many entries here, but some of them in BLITZ & AMOS! Medium level. Allowed size was 64kb. The third placer was "DISTORTIONS" by Batman Group & TNC. TNC put the GFXs, and BG the code and music. The relevant thing is that the coder (ex-Rauling/BG, now Wind/TNC) and the Graphician (Leunam/TNC), started his Scene Career on this one, so it's no big surprise it's not very impressing. Second place to "CRAZY DAYS" by Necropolis, with some effects from the demo. First one to "INTROXELE" by Odrusba. It got a very good music, and a excelent plane-morphingvector. Very good design, with a poem synced to the music, but, unfortunately, in Spanish. Music: Many entries as usual, with very good level. Big surprise here, as the winner wasn't Estrayk/Darkness, who has won every module-compo before! He placed third, though. The first placed was made with strings and pianos... and going up & down in HeartTracker! Graphics: Magic Touch from Metro striked again this year, with an amazing pic... the compo was bigger than last year, and new people participated, such as the second placer, made by an almost-newcomer. Fast Compos: Many entries in the fastmod-compo, with very good songs, as they got only an 60 bytes sample!. The GFXs-compo got less entries, but the quality was good. The fastcoding-compo got only one entry, with a flag routine whose lenght was 12 lines!! In general, this party helped people to realise that the Scene was not dead, as it may seem from the low number of demos that are made here. It helped also smaller groups, like us, to get in touch with bigger groups, making it a time well spent. We hope you enjoy the demos presented at this party, and don't forget: Spanish Omelette Rulez! ------------------------------------ PARTY RESULT OF THE -+- POSADAS AMIGA PARTY -+- (21, 22 & 23 July.
