The Raven, Mirage, Axis, Vision, Sco-   this on a late sunday evening.       
opex, Quasar,  Anarchy, Lunatics  and   
probably lots more  but I cannot  re-   
member them at this moment (sorry).     
  Well to make a  long story a  short   
one  everybody was bored to death un-   
til the demo competition on this par-   
ty. And that was arranged pretty bad.   
It was much too late,  lots of people   
had  to leave before to get the  last   
train!                                  
  The result  of the demo competition   
was 3- DIVINE,  2- Magician Lord,  1-   
The Lost Boy's.  I  do not know where   
the demos were judged on but  I think   
this  result really sucks!  Anyway it   
is much too  late now to  waste  more   
time telling you about this mega lame   
party.  One last thing the video wall   
was present,  but as you probably can   
guess now, they were playing games on   
it. Well I hope I'll never visit such   
a  party  again,  it is nothing  more
