the official press release Phantasy and
from PHAT9 organizers illegal promotions
10.10.99
the true eight bit show - PHAT9 - your last summer tears
The party, which took place on 25.09.99 in Riga, Latvia is over.
To cut the crap short, it was a succesful event, however with so
much people screwing up the organizers it was quite different
than expected.
The main organizer which turned out to be almost only one, Raver
of Phantasy, did all he promised in the invitation not to
mention things like projector, free entrance to club "Metro" and
institute's canteen with cheap and good food. But, the low
support caused by innert sceners and quite limited advertising
campaign changed everything into meeting of Phantasy members
rather than what was expected. Also, homepage wasn't put online
partly because Slagge/Dual Crew Shinning did not care about
organizers request and partly because they had no time to find
another location. So why the fuck DCS are advertising and offer-
ing their c64.org domain if they screw up when it's really need-
ed? And so, few days before party the hall in Institute of
Inorganic Chemistry was exchanged for a quite small Phantasy HQ
and main action took part here, also in Irish Pub and actually
in quite a lot places in Riga. The change of partyplace caused a
change of subtitle as well, so this year's PHAT is entitled as
"Your Last Summer Tears".
Releasewise, speccy compos gathered some nice stuff, but the
c=64 side showed incredible inactivity making the compo useless.
See official results in magazine and grab compo stuff from Acid
Nature or The Digital Dungeon.
Still Phantasy and illegal promotions are looking forward to
organize PHAT0 and hoping that the event will take a well de-
served place in your next year's schedule.
