VM> Are you talking about Random? ;) So he flew in from Australia.. And from you
No, I’m talking about the fact that it’s winter there.
VM> there was no one at the CC :((
Alas. We flew with him. The demo machine that stood and worked all the time,
stopped working at the most inopportune moment. Plus, the most important thing
Dema was not quite ready. So look out for a special showing of the Sprinter in
in the near future. It’s just a pity that out-of-towners won’t be able to watch it. :(
Wow! The Protoss are attacking my Zerlings! It's time to get going. Ivan.

//(about St. Petersburg only - write about yourself)
So we weren’t able to see the almost finished Sprinter-2 :( It’s a pity.. Byaccording to some information (rumours:) F. Peters’s superiors generally forbade their
workers at TsTS'999 to be present, so neither Mak, nor Parinov, nor himself
N. Noskov was not there..
But the Scorpionists were present (60% - Zerov, Fomin, Mityushov) and their GMX
proved to be 100% good (in the sense of 100% compatibility with the Pentagon /
Scorpio :).. True, Comrade Zonov was not - he probably didn’t want to again
meet with RST7 or KANO :)) (However, there was no RST7/KANO)
Who else was not there from St. Petersburg? There was no Misha Akimov (Logros) - it looks like he
I only found out about the party the day before.. Or maybe I didn’t want to figure it out
affairs of his closed store.. But there was E.Yu. Buder (Welcome), as always,
who launched a vigorous activity and trade in hot software directly from the machine :)
Nemo was loading something for someone... All his representatives were there - indigenous
St. Petersburg resident Boris Sharapov (OPER), temporarily residing in Moscow; and a native Muscovite
Timofey Lapo, who occasionally lives in St. Petersburg. Both _without_ a guitar :(
For some reason Andrei Savichev was not there, although Igor Maznitsa and his wife were there..
There was StyleGroup in full force - they drove up spectacularly in a Chevrolet,
almost running over half of the participants.. There was no G-Soft (so about fate
It was not possible to find out the sensational MechWars project)..
Of course there were the inseparable Hacker_Cris/VBs, John_Stunner/VBs, Felix/Softland,Vitaliy_Romanov/VBs, LAV/doctor_S. :).. There were VolgaSoft (with their new 3D
project), DNK (the last of the once fifty ViRT members
group), Ivan Bobov (the most unconventional St. Petersburg musician :)..
There was no X-Trade (neither Lomov, nor Dangerous).. Strange.. Although their GS
was present.. Apparently, Mike Blum and Oleg Sazonov (with one of
few video cameras this time), as GS specialists..
XL-Design degenerated into one Tolya Aksenov (Ruster), who was present
with the aim of interviewing for ZX Format'2000 :)
From the old guard there was Volodya Larkov and Misha Kondratyev (he was wearing
written by Copper Feet - a pathetic plagiarist :), but there was no Gruzdev, B. Sokol,
Dikushin and their friend Nik Skachkov :)
There were, of course, Random’s friends from kindergarten - Igor Mandryka and Shura
Knyazev (Merlin, organizer, by the way).. There was a friend (or relative?)
Random, with whom Dima Menyailov from StyleGroup staged an exhibition fight before
first liter of blood filmed on video camera.. (I hope the DM understood that
The main thing is not victory, but participation? :)
There was Pyotr Sobolev (main organizer E'95/96/97). He sat modestly in the last
series and drew the appropriate conclusions for myself..
There were Amizhniks... I don’t know how on the second day, but on the first there were people
five or six (I only remember Oleg Lvov).. Of course, they were easily recognizable bycatchy, beautiful inscriptions AMiGA.. And only the cowardly Max Romanov (organizer,
by the way) was without identification marks - he was afraid that they might be from St. Petersburg
the Sinclairists didn’t tell him ;))
There were (relatively) a lot of networkers and just different good people, like: Kir
Chubenko, Oleg Grigoriev, Misha Pertsovsky, Alexey Volkov, Tatka Burleva, Slava
Sokolov, Denis Kurlaev, me and many, many, many, many, many others (sorry,
sclerosis due to temporary alcoholism :))
However:
Summary: IMHO, there could be three times as many people from St. Petersburg.. But.. (either
far away, either it’s expensive, or the timing is bad, or the CC hasn’t managed to do it yet
recommend)..
ps oh, I forgot.. Random was also there - a native St. Petersburg, by the will of evil fate
brought to Australia, to these terrible kangaroos :))
pps IMHO, it depends on you, but I like exactly this type of party ;)))) 5 points!
To hell with these demos, gams, intros, the main thing is to find a kindred soul (souls!)..
This is what a REAL scene is (c) 7th stager in Russia and neighboring countries :)
ppps2Random Unless the projector could have been more colorful ;)) S?

[I.ZX] Warm greetings, Slava!

The projector is connected with a spec, it's a pity that the current is in black and white form. If only there was more time,
then the speck on the projector would have been in color.

spec. On CC'000 the spec will be colored! ;)
