In this text, focus on key issues CC'000, those
that were asked by real people and those that I asked myself,
after reading many different report'ov. Relevance,
answer truthfully. I personally give the answers and, in
general, the pronoun I occurs here very often. To this there
are various reasons: "I want to recognize all their mistakes
and point people to other people." So there will be a clear
division - I, and we are where we are - this is Spectrum of the
day the whole team (MOT, UNBEL! EVER, JOCKER, KLIM, Larkoff).
This here is the FAQ ...
And remember - not all responses were born to party. Many
of them - is the fruit of a deep understanding of the situation
at home conditions. That's why you should not torture yourself
this question: "If you all know, why did ???". should do more -
read and reel yourself into their heads (or any other
he organ of the body) that in future not to repeat these
errors.
-------------------------------------------------- -----------
!) Why does the show DOGMA slowed down the music on podgruzki?
Immediately after the importation of vehicles on the party
place Mednonogova Stalls proposed change in her drive, citing
the fact that drive of Fame has already spent his best days. I
agreed with him, Aware that the NEMO in the box had a bunch of
drives. However, the first task was Pentagon'a connection with
the projector, and the drive temporarily beaten ... As a
result, all the way and display of the native drive.
DOGMA was otRESTOREna on compo machine in the presence of
Sair00s'a. The quality of the disc is also not in doubt. Problem
that the loader in DOGMA although compares favorably
from NAPALM'a, but even he is too tough ... 5'25 drives with
worm gear. On the Russian drives demo works
ideal, but at all flops with a "worm" the transfer is necessary,
obviously do another interleave.
!) Why hang the second and eighth work democompo?
When you create a drive that is showing works on demo
compo, so on and is not understood why the first two demo
turned out to be erased file third demo. Say exactly who made
the this error can not be - the software using a proven,
Computers NEMO working properly ...
Another thing is that for a large park the neither me nor
MOT'u in it never occurred to run these demoz from the original
disks. RANDOM'a in the hall was not there either, and he knew
that these demoz 100% of the workers, since they were
commissioned in advance, and it is their certainly looked.
Finally, JOCKER and KLIM too, for some reason, very passive
attitude to hang FATE trackmo, although they brought a disc of
DISABLER'a (I found it later at home), completed working copies
FATE'a.
In short, the failure of the display of these two works I
personally guilty. The reason for all - elementary Zapara. I
apologize for both authors, and especially in DIE KRUPPS - we
are so oblomali their comeback to scene: (
By the way, if I understand correctly syndrome
mednonogovskogo " PENTAGON'a in terms of multy-loader'ov, that
FATE would still be dependent in the middle, even if we had
guessed it from the start of another disc. To blame for
incorrect multiloader and the curve drive controller.
!) Why did not reveal an epilogue in Tryptomine Dream?
Even before democompo approached me for a long time Tigrr
rubbed on the fact that we have to show an epilogue in their
work and necessarily wait until the end of the scroll. I
listened to it all - in literally, as the burden of problems
instantly knocked out of my head his words.
During a demo I was not far from the door
Hall and with the people looked at the creation BrainWave'ov.
When the case went to the end and flooded chunks, I began to go
down to the projector. There appeared on the screen the final
image. People clapped and many, including myself, realized that
this is the end.
I went out on the projector and started trying something to
broadcast. As it turned out later, when you go out into the
beam, your shadow completely obscures the entire screen. MOT
lost the overview screen and on the general status of the hall
came to the conclusion that you click on RESET. Reference
monitor that stood at our table and lamp Of course the drive
was visible, but not us! We are too close sat to the technique,
as in another it was impossible to put table. That is why the
loss of the screen was poured to the full paralysis of action,
despite the presence of the monitor.
Guilty, in general, I again and the ILO, and I am more
least, as I was warned. However, in reality
blame the authors! If I FT'98 wanted people to see
BlAME to the end, the last 90 seconds was about compo
machines and literally had to RESET'e _svoyu_ hand so as not to
pressed one another ahead of time.
The authors are immediately asked to show the demo again at
the end compo, to which we agreed. However, even after it
became clear that rerun demo - it is almost pressure on the
optic Hall. T_DREAM but was not shown again in quite another
reason - we did not have the elementary time, and at 19:30 all
stood in the street.
!) Why was the union of copy / no copy GFX compo.
Another Random Night of the Scorpion by Chela copied the
entire their stuff on the 3 disc 5'25. Since I have at the
moment he took the situation under control, people were
relieved of their Duty, my wheels went into use.
Discs did contain compo work, but most
terrible was that all this lay a huge pile -
work, descriptions on them and other debris. The music was
easy - each module is signed inside. But with the graphics ...
Preselektom involved in music at night are the people whom it
was interesting. I first wanted to finish our demo but then
scored and decided to nap, planning to finish RiZC in the
morning.
Somewhere at 5:00 on waking, it became clear to chto
prepare for the worst. The music was more or less ready, and I
engaged in graphics and intro. Brief analysis Random'ovskih
drives shown: the search diz'ov on each picture may delay the
beginning party for a few hours! That's when I decided to
"merge" all images and combine compo. This is true not solve
the problem - We still had no names gfx works and names of
their authors - only file names. There was hope that the win
people are known to everyone.
Later it became clear that the schedule was notebook'e Seva
sorted by copy / no copy, but Random left out of the theater and
appeared only in the middle of the day.
In a nutshell - the music divided by copy / no copy was
You can, as it prosekalos by ear + inside the module was
written by the author's name and the name of the competition. A
GFX had to fly view and sort. Would have been mistakes and
omissions, and then scandals. The artists themselves, in my
opinion, very quietly reacted to the union competitions.
Nervous amateurs and only authors Conversion ...
!) Why is 512 bytes intro shown without sound.
Question, which party do no one cared.
No sound is simply not noticed. However, after viewing
compo works in the home environment becomes very clear -
Ivan Roshchin and his work who live now in the last
place in the presence of the included sound could be
winners!
The first idea that the sound was turned off
moment GFX compo, because we were asked to include PC'shnikov
audio (Rammstain) for displaying graphics. However, in detail
analysis of events, it became clear that the lack of sound at
512 bytes this does not explain, because the contest was intro
AY COPY MUSIC, and already there was a sound - 100%.
As always, I am guilty of all, though, of course, was a real
the culprit who took the audio cable or restart the PC in
Between AY and INTRO compo. I would like to apologize
Ivan Roschin as him this year, just not totally
lucky. And if his work had not decided the fate of compo, then
This time we lost a winner: (
!) Why is hung second 4K INTRO?
Work SkY by JTN 'Mike/4D hung for unknown
reasons. On the one hand, it could be a problem of data bus
compo machine could suffer this disease, it is precisely on this
competence in the 1997th and hang BINARY LOVE AMIGO. On the
other hand, could be a similar problem with democompo - wrong
copying. If we now returned to the same disk with 4k
intros, which was lost in the party, I was able to answer
accurately.
!) Why can not demo from REAL MASTERS?
Sami REAL MASTERS appeared in the hall, I think, before
the beginning of the start of the main mass of the people.
There were two - SERG and VLAD. Both were extremely excited and
pretty drunk. SERG has continued to use the genie out of the
plastic bottle right on the party-place.
They started their speech with that made a new demo, but
They do not reformattera under him. Then followed a discussion
among themselves MASTER'ov on "and fuck all needed
REFORMAT ". VLAD like SERG'u explained that he needed, and that
You can use ANAMNESIS'ovsky setup for this purpose. I
sent them to the compo machine, which is likely to sit MOT. They
returned some time later with cries that PENTAGON'e
Nichrome nothing is loaded, though they have all worked at
home, and general demo enchanted by SCORPION.
At this point, I have surfaced in the brain pattern of
PENTAGON'a ALK'a and I think I understand why the demo does not
work on compo machine. Explains it was useless, especially not
fix'it have the time. Real Master'am offered to show replays on
KAY-1024, to which they agreed to despair. Demo
copied and restored, and then ran and looked
before the first podgruzki. VLAD said that everything is
working, and wanted watch the demo to the end, but I threw KAY
- should have been compo take work, and in general - watch the
demo in advance - ungrateful thing.
NEMO was tense, and since the mid-demo compo, he
started manufacturing the necessary cables to connect
KAY-1024 to the projector. During the last break (after
Show RiZC) KAY was connected to a projector and successfully
earned, on what we have calmed down. KAY and his father took
place on the table, where before there was C64 ...
Meanwhile themselves REAL MASTERS continued to be more
drunk. Already a fight on the left side of the hall with their
participation. SERG was just insane, VLAD - continues to be
heavily excited.
After showing DOGMA to a projector hooked up again KAY-1024.
Then went to a small park the MOT'om or somebody else. How
I knew someone wanted to start the demo once and for PENTAGON'e
KAY'e, to borrow from one sound, but with a different video.
According to my plans all had to do KAY, especially since it
demo already been verified.
Shit started right away - KAY attaching a break, we
forgot to check the sound. Wiring the car was NEMO'vskaya and
test tone (MEHTb! by Mm
said from the scene. Of course, if I knew how
pathetic vote-lists makes Random, then insisted on a five-point
system ...
By the way, the counting of votes as the party place, and in
Samara, we isolated vote-lists and even some in the compo
Within list'a, where there was a five-point rating system, and
have multiplied by 2, bringing it to ten. So it was
correctly.
!) What is the compo machine was at the party?
Originally compo machine was supposed to be exactly the same
ZS SCORPION + GMX, a year ago. He was brought to the party
place on Friday somewhere in 22:00. In view of the serious
problems this machine could not be used. Judging by the rapid
diagnosis rendered by the collective intelligence in the machine
minimum was defective AY-Chip, and the maximum - in principle
abnormal entire scheme of sound (2Mhz on AY!).
Very quickly remembered the computer stalls
Mednonogova, and already at 01:00 Saturday at the party place
was the is the Pentagon, that three years ago he worked on
Enlight'97. Thus, all compo work, but the demo of Real Masters
run on this Pentagon'e - last Pentagone in St. Petersburg.
!) Why not announced the results of all ZX compo late in the
second
day?
Already at the beginning of the second day I was talking
with someone (perhaps was Pheel ^ ANTARES). That someone zater
me that is the rumor that if the results will not be considered
for all vote-list'am and 1 / 10 of total volume. It's, like,
will be fast results. I Naturally, called such complete
nonsense and went to look Random'a. Instead I found a writer
for Seva, more precisely, it is me stopped and also asked about
the vote count. He asked, and then said something like the
following: "If now is not to start to count votes, then we will
remain without results. "Do not tell me he this sentence - we
would not now have any results really!
Within an hour I called the people to fill in and
vote-list'y lease them. For collecting the sheets got
CPU'shniki, they were the first found that the sheets can be
divided into those where a 10-point system and those in which 5
and scoring. During this time we decided to place of counting
and the team - ROM ^ PGS, FLYING ^ DR, RAVER ^ PHT and I. While
walking collection of sheets, Flying printed the entire paper
material that was needed. After the start of the summation of
long columns of figures showed that FLYING turn their numbers
in my head ROM, in principle, too, although he got a
calculator, but that I have that RAVER ... At this point, I
went down the hall and asked 3 people calculator (people were
Justinas ^ CTL, Research ^ VolgaSoft, Permian).
Counting went very quickly and efficiently. First there
were demoz, then 4kb, then GFX ... At GFX'e started 64k intro
compo, we went to watch. ROM with the event not
returned. Further calculation was with mixed success. Flying
be finished with its GFX and counted 512bytes. Raver and I
stuck on the GFX COMPO - our packs were a little bigger, and
shustrost is not the same ... About music was immediately clear
that We assume it will not.
By the time the PC compos upstairs got the rest
PHT members, who helped to count RAVAH'u gfx. Approached
ROM with his girlfriend, and together we summed the data from
4 sheets of DEMOZ, 4K and 512bytes. Summarize the GFX was not
sense - there are about 10 works torn to victory, but a lot of
vote-list'ov were fake (first discovered the fraud
watchful Flying).
Thus, we have obtained results on the three main compo.
These results obtained from counting all available
sheets! GFX considered, but not add special - not to
preresults'ami make trouble in the crowd of artists. At the
same time when disclosure, it was noted that this preresults
and they _mogut_ change.
!) Why did not reveal and not copied promised ELITE???
ALK has not had time to finish the disc version of the game
in time. Even if he had, the game will still be a long test,
prior to releasing to the public. So we do not have to rush and
point of my statement to the effect that the party will be
handing out BetaDisk version of the game can be considered
cheating.
Download the original game in the original Speccy ... Even
for week before CC'000 Ignition idea stalls began to actively
to solve this issue ... We found one non-working with NEMO and
48K one worker (rumored) in Lapo. The latter had not lived at
home, and as a talk with him was impossible. On the first day
party at our table were two of these half-dead unit, from
which was quite possible to assemble one. Stayed home
problem - the power supply to 9V. By the end of the second day
there was a lot of ideas down to the batteries, but it was too
late. Verdict boot was placed at the very beginning of the
second day neither the conditions nor the technology was not
there.
Me in this matter was struck by the extremely low activity
people. If anyone asked about the game, so it was familiar to
pain face. Ordinary users almost was not. And that instead of
In order to break me to pieces, the man who held a
the hands of a legend ... Partly because of the low activity of
the people demonstration of even just the box itself on the
game and did not place. Yes and no normal conditions.
However, the show was. In the morning the second day of the
game saw the Maxx ^ TL, NIK-O ^ TL and Costa - the man without
whom we would not have survived in that night, and even more so
without him would not have received a collection work that went
into the middle of the resurrection of the Internet and then
copied to the party. The second largest show (about 25) was in
the I-net cafe "Cro-Magnon" (was this beta-prerelease homo
sapience), where we slept. There I was on full program
demonstrated and talked. Attended Moscow, Carpet, Perm. It was
amusing to see Sair00s'a that just now turned his on-screen
scene with nonhuman number of polygons, and now sits as a child
watches a tape of the game.
The third show was a train "SPB-Samara during the testimony
CPU'shnikam interview. Thus, about 40 people
could still look at this relic. I kept the promise,
this MAC BUSTER'u - the game has not suffered, and I hope soon
to it will come back safe and sound. Sorry for one thing ...
ELITE so and did not see the stalls, although he madly hit on
the idea Elite Show in the format that I conceived. Sorry, Vova
- I'll send you jpg'ov ... In general, the action could well
place, thanks to Peter quickly are people with the necessary
iron and a desire to work ...
!) Why the work was shown in some special order
ascending slope??
AY-MUSIC, as the copy, and no copy, raced in almost
random order - a fact! Graphics ... First came the work
surrendered in advance, too, in a fairly random order, but in
the end were those works that were rented at party place. Compo
viever allowed to do shuffle, but to explore the features of its
Work with us to MOT'om not had the time and Randy was not under
hand.
512bytes, 4k and DEMOZ really show in the
special order. I have not seen at the time show no
work (except his), but it was not difficult to guess that the
demo from BRAINWAVE example, clearly steeper than EYE-Q ...
Order display work in those categories, I personally
distributed. That is why Samara intro are at the end of each
compo - by my calculations they have been the most entertaining
and should be were to be the last. However, in the last 4k was
supposed to go SERZH SOFT, but the third study, we made a
mistake and had to a new list of the show, which was already
the last Smile (Incidentally, this work Sage'evtsev I have not
seen before the party, so as they gathered 4k per night from
Friday to Saturday).
Even before the first day I talked with some people
on the distribution of the order of the show dem. It was clear
that three main leaders - BW, EI and RM to evenly distribute,
asleep layer of humus from other works. With the advent of DR
was it is clear that RiZC and SNG # 2promotion birds of a
feather, and also neploho be shown in the right order to compo
failed.
I had planned to bring together all of the authors demos
for solutions display issues. Neither of which we are not
pulling the match went on, Although people from Vladivostok
suggested it. However, there began Lawlessness: RM'skaya demo
would not start on compo machine, and it became clear that
their work will be on display the latter. And then knocked
down, run down. List of show demos was drawn by hand MOT'a
(under my dictation) on a sheet of A4 blue marker somewhere
during the 4k intro. Incidentally, this is precisely in this
list only once recorded name Kag! for from Real Masters - no
other data on the title of this demo At the time of collection
of papers from the party I had.
Thus, neither of which randomness can be no question.
The order of the show demos and intro was defined so that work
were uniformly and the spectacle was interesting. If anyone has
claims, express, because the order of the show determined
personally H.
!) Why was not vote-list'ov, ticketing and credentials??
All of this printing was ordered and printed on time.
FRUNZE forgot on Friday to take stuff from the press.
Accordingly, on Saturday and Sunday are not printing
worked. I do not know who got the idea to print (well,
Incidentally, the idea), but I still laugh, remembering how
Random trying to understand the principles of stickers letters
and gum on the very printing. This is despite the instructions
in Russian. If not KLIM, coming up at the critical moment ...
The first stamp was affixed on a paper in vahtershi on the
table. The second on deftly slipped my hand. Incidentally, this
is precisely because of its increased hairiness tradition went
on to seal back of the hand. Also in this place print
was the least subjected to abrasion. I went (drove
a) a glass door, and presenting the crowd with a hand stamp,
urged all slowly getting the same and pass on the party.
New Vote-Lists were made (layout) in the first day of the
party and rang at the entrance on the second day. Diplomas will
be ready and sent to the winners as soon as we get FULL
RESULTS for both days (1st day is ready - have to wait
PC'shnikov).
!) Who and how to count votes for FINAL RELSUTS first day?
It was a long story. Who just did not count them ... Full
a list of people venerating this case the hand:
Mm
