I ranked second in the graphics competition at Rewired party 2008. I got told that it was extremely close (I haven't seen the points yet), so I'm pretty happy about the result. As "award" I got this yummy belgian waffle, that I'll eat while creating my next compo image.

Sadly the cell of my camera gave up, right before the award ceremony, so I have no photos from that, but Red and Psykon took 3 out of 4 awards (best demo, best music, best graphics) and got a whole crate of the
world exclusive party beer! Gratz!

Around 8am I woke up in my car(this night was pretty okay) and went over to the party location. I expected to be some people already/still being at their machines, but... all was dark. Not a single screen was turned on. So I sneaked into the hall, for I don't want to wake up the guys/gals around here.
If you still wonder: The best place to sleep is surely right next to your PC. I prefer under the table, it's safer in case of an earthquake, or people just stumbling over you.
Yesterday late night the competitions were shown on bigscreen. Not really many entries, but the spirit is high and some entries really kicked ass. I hope my entry gets some good points, let's wait and see.
Looking at the timetable of our intranet, the prizes will be given around 12:00, so still some time left for me to have some food, drink and more pixeling. Reminder to myself: Ask FRaNKy to upload the PC intro demo for Rewired on youtube and about updating the C64scene db entry of this party.

The windscreen of ZaVkE's car got broken (no idea how that happened though, as I just arrived minutes later). But Santa shows one possible solution to that riddle:
Smash it!(just joking!

)
ZaVkE now tries to get a replacement for his car/windscreen, as it is obvious that we can't fix this crack.

MEAT in flames... I mean BBQ! The MEAT we bought now got on the grill...

Red: It's either burned or still raw...
Psykon: Just as we like it!

So we went to the local food store to buy some fooooood! I took some beer, chips, chocolate, more chips, 3 chops of MEAT and sweet pastry. Really good stuff to survive 3 days of demoscene-partying! YAY!
Now I just heard that the BBQ is opened, so let's grill the MEAT!

After about 2.5 hours of sleep in my car I feel a bit well rested, but my neck hurts. It's definately no good idea to sleep on the drivers seat of your car. Now that I'm back at my PC, the air conditioning starts to annoy me again. I think I'll have a word with the party orga team about that.
So, where did I stop? Oh, right... a new C64 image. No way I can do that without a coffee and something to eat. 3-4 fresh croissants would be best...
