       ANALOGY HI-TECH PARTY        
          (11th-13thDec.)           
                                    
A  bit unknown Finnish group ANALOGY
organized  a party at Rauma, Finland
on   Friday   11th  to  Sunday  13th
December.  Only about 150-250 people
showed  up,  and this was definitely
not   the   best   party  ever.   No
foreigners  showed up either.  But I
must  give  a  credit to ANALOGY for
even   trying   to   hold   a   nice
copy-party, you know, there is never
enough    copy-parties    held    in
Finland...                          
                                    
    Here begins the story...        
                                    
    Our   awesome   party-team   was
formed  at the Oulu Railway-station.
The  crazy  guys  I  had  chosen  to
accompany    me    were   ZENOX/DAI,
SHADDOCK/DICTATORS and our very best
klitoris-possu  BLACK  CAT  from the
very  awesome  POORSOFT.   The  trip
went  quite  OK,  and we reached the
party-place  around eight o'clock on
Friday.   There  was plenty of space
at the school and neither you had to
wait hours to get in.  Mmm, this was
promising, indeed!  We made our base
at  the  room  with  Heikki  Kosola,
POORSOFT  and  GRACE  SF.  They were
quiet but nice people indeed.  Then,
we  started wandering around looking
for  friends  and action.  There was
some  lack  of  people  and we found
very  few  dudes we had met on other
parties.   There  was  really  small
amount of boozers around, maybe they
had to do it outside because ANALOGY
had  a  very  strict alcohol-policy.
Some  action  was  created by groups
like  EXOTIC  MEN  and  DAMONES.   A
window  was broken at the other wing
of  the  building and there was even
some   kind  of  a  axe-fight...(?!)
After this ANALOGY called the police
and  almost  all  the  boozers  were
kicked  out and the action was gone.
It seemed as ANALOGY had no staff to
keep  people under control, or maybe
they  were  just too weak and shy to
do   it.    Anyway,  nothing  really
exciting appeared on Friday.  People
were just watching demos, coding and
playing  this  classic finnish game,
TURBORAKETTI,   made  by  this  nice
fellow Heikki Kosola.               
    On  Saturday at last the rest of
DAI  arrived.   SLUMLORD,  TSACA and
DELACROIX  were  really disappointed
of  the  party,  as well as we were.
On  Saturday  people  just continued
watching demos, playing TURBORAKETTI
and coding...  A very loud noise was
created  by  BOMB SQUAD/SONIC.  They
brought  a  stereo-system  with them
and  they  played  some  shit techno
with a full volume.  Shit, the whole
building  was  quaking...   And they
played that shit for so fucking long
time  we  got  more than fed up with
it.   Later on Saturday after we had
watched  STAR  TREK (YEAH!) the rest
of  DAI left even without seeing the
democompo.   They  didn't lose much.
As   the   democompo  had  to  begin
ANALOGY   told  everyone  that  they
hadn't  enough  money for the prizes
and  that  there  was  no  democompo
because  there was only three groups
taking part in democompo.  Well, all
the compos were held, some nice pics
on  the GFX-compo, a large amount of
SFX  were  played  while  very  nice
animations  by  NewTek were shown on
the  big  screen.   There  was  many
intros    shown    and    demos   by
DIGITAL, SKUNK and DISKNET.  I don't
remember  the  results,  but I guess
the    GFX    compo   was   won   by
HOTSHOT/COMPLEX and the democompo by
DIGITAL.  There was lots of problems
during  the  compos,  both techincal
and  the  unrest of the people.  The
people  didn't  respect  ANALOGY  as
much  as if some cooler group held a
party.   People  were talking during
the  compo and disturbing the compos
all  the  time.   And ANALOGY had no
rough    staff    to    handle   the
trouble-makers.  The voting was once
again messed up and they barely said
what  was  the  number  of  the prod
shown on the screen.  And the lights
went out and on and out and on...   
 REAL SHIT!!!!!                     
                                    
Overall, an awful experience but you
do  always enjoy yourself on a party
at  least  for  a  while.  Thanks to
ANALOGY  for at least trying and for
weak  organizing.  And fuck to every
suspicious  people  who didn't come.
If  you  all  would  have come, that
would  have  been  a  cool  party...
MAYBE...  anyway, more parties, more
fun in FUNLAND!!!!!!
