- «c7»«as»After previous fail due to a party date which has been set a few days
- after «c6»Mekka&Symposium, «c7»we decided to set a date of «c6»Apocalypse3 «c7»later, just
- like first Apocalypse was: september. We learned from all mistakes we did
- before and this party seemed to be better than last time.«»
- «»
- As always, we was in hurry a week before partying, getting some money for
- t-shirts, other prizes, projector, tickets etc. Unfortunately, we counted
- on a big amount of visitors this time, but later we noticed there won't be
- so many attenders we thought before, because polish sceners made their own
- party named «c6»Symphony «c7»in the very same date as Apocalypse was planned, it
- meant there were no foreigners enjoying our party.«»

- There was nothing special during a preparation at the «c6»partyplace «c7»for us,
- an organizers. We mounted projector, run the ticket program, moved the
- tables and waited for first visitors, because there are always someone who
- arrives evening before an official party day to booze with organizers and
- discuss with them until partyplace is still almost empty. It is always the
- last moment when we can calm down and relax before that chaos at the party
- day. Those evenings rocks for us as organizers, on the other side,
- attenders prefer that day after. Nothing special ;).«»

- We woke up on Saturday morning fixing some things before «c6»first visitors
- «c7»will come. The hall started to fill up after 10:00, but we still counted
- with more visitors coming to enjoy here. Our «c6»pub «c7»was almost fill during
- afternoon, people placed their «c6»Amigas «c7»and we enjoyed the last moments of
- relaxing. «c6»Compos «c7»started around 17:00 when all people arrived and all
- visitors impatiently expect some performance on the screen. We decided to
- show the best of latest parties for getting people hot ;) and we chose
- «c6»Lapsuus by Mature Furk. «c7»It was the only demo which people rewarded by
- handsclapping and crying loudly. It was simply big success and also
- surprise for the people. Who can expect so perfect demo for Amiga when
- people says it's almost dead computer?«»
- «»
- Demos are always starting engine for real party feeling and it works
- always ;). After a few demos presentation, «c6»real compo «c7»started. «c6»ASCII, 4ch
- mods, mch mods, pixel... «c7»you know that. Unfortunately, there were no demos
- or intros here, but I think people enjoyed anyway.«»
- «»
- Next day we originally wanted to do a «c6»prizegiving, «c7»but many people left
- before we realized it. However, compos have been won mainly by foreign
- sceners which supported us sending their works via e-mail before the party,
- so we promised to send a «c6»prize by snail-way. «c7»Hopefully, all winners have
- got their prize sent from me.«»
- We learned again from another mistakes done during this party: saving
- more money. Since we started to do our «c6»Apocalypse parties, «c7»we always had to
- pay some money from our own pockets to pay out all debts we had or find some
- sponsor. Nobody thinks about price raising because people couldn't pay for
- that so much (although Apocalypse has the lowest entrance fee around the
- Europe, people get used to that and they simply don't care to pay more. But
- it's all our organizing problem.«»
- «»
- We get used to have some foreigners at our party, but unfortunately,
- there are more prestige parties around the Europe. But who knows? Maybe
- people will try to check our small «c6»old-skool party «c7»some day?«»
