- XBelgian Scene Event- 1 9 9 8 -X__Are you sick of commercial parties, where money is more important than fun?
- Tired of organizers having no relation to the scene at all? Fed up with
- hundreds of PC users playing Quake all day long? Then the following
- information might be of interest for you...-__Last year Crisp & Franky (Both members of CBK back then. -Ed.) tried to
- re-animate the Amiga scene in Belgium by organizing the first party since
- years. They took a rather risky road and decided to make this event Amiga
- only, aware of the fact that this would mean much less visitors and
- therefore a much higher financial risk... Shortly before the party, Amiga
- International noticed it and liked the idea of an party for Amiga users
- only. There were too little time for big support, but AI sponsored a
- complete A1200 package to give away as prizes in the competitions...__This year, the Belgian Scene Event will be repeated! It will be completely
- different to last year's party, though, so if you have heard anything
- negative about BSE 1997, forget it! Instead of last year's weeks, the
- organizers this year have 8 months to plan the event. There will be a much
- better party-place with a much safer power supply. The only negative point
- is the date - It crashes precisely with the Assembly - 7th till 9th of
- August. This due to the fact that Assembly Organizing revealed the date
- only some days ago, while BSE organizers had booked the party-place even
- earlier. But then again, I don't think that a lot of people would attend
- both parties, even if there were some weeks in between. The BSE is meant
- for meeting and chatting with other sceners. To have fun, because that's
- what many modern parties lack! Still, there will be competitions (Demo,
- intro, 4ch, gfx...) and even some prize-money. (Although you won't get
- rich. -Ed.) The quality of this party depends on you... The more people
- appear, the better it gets. It's located perfectly for people from France,
- England, Holland and Germany - And of course Belgium...__Finally, Amiga International will fully support this year's edition of the
- party, as the BSE 1998 has been recognized as the "Official Amiga Party" by
- them..This will be a TRUE Amiga party for TRUE Amiga users!! If you want to
- know more about it, look out for the pre-invitation text or wait for the
- invitation intro, which will be released at Mekka & Symposium '98. You can
- also mail the organizers directly at "bse98@gmx.net"Xby Grey (c) Insomnia'98
