Thanks! I guess there were more remote entries than local entries (6 local), and nail was in three of the remote entries. So, while my entry
is solid, I'll be surprised if it places even remotely high.

And I wound up 10th of 18. I'm not remembering the names of all the entries, but honestly expected to end up a couple spots lower due to other people being better-known demosceners or being more experienced / more talented with ANSI.

But I think I might have benefited a bit from being a non-remote entry, as I think names like Lazarus and Fire as groups don't really provide voting pop at a demo party, because those are not groups that come to Evoke (or likely demo parties), so far as I know.

So, yeah, I expect that, if one took away the names, the order would be fairly different. But aside from prizes, as always it's pretty neat to have a solid entry in a compo with lots of solid entries.

And I had thought I had posted my entry, but maybe not... If I haven't, it'll probably be the next post.

I guess I posted it to FSX_LFE. Which is probably reasonable, but not where I was actually intending to post it, due to this thread.

So, cross-posted, and hopefully no one particularly minds. If so, sorry in advance.

...For peace of mind, resign as general manager of the universe.

The Evoke demo party from Köln, Germany has begun.
Neat to be here again, and I'm excited to see how things go.

I'm only submitting an ANSI, but am excited to see how the compo will go. Hopefully one or two others from here will submit something, too.

I streamed quite a bit of it - was fun... I caught a lot of the introz and the main demo compo.

Haven't viewed the results yet - can't wait to see yer ANSi entry. :P

w00t w00t!

evoke. maybe release sg.

How far away is the nearest one for you? Demoparty.net gives a good overview of all the demo parties out there, if you're not sure.

I do wonder if it'd be worth it to go to an additional party, though two a year seems reasonable enough. But if there were one later in the year, I could have one every four months...

But I think Nordlicht and Deadline are probably the most reasonable other parties, for this year, for me.

Germany and the Netherlands is ok for me almost any time, i can easily drive 8-12 hours. but i think it will be only possible on 2024, too many things this year :(

Good luck!

I'm unlikely to make it, but was hearing from a couple of French guys about how much fun it was.

And Budapest is a great city to visit.

And this year's Function is most likely the last one. Maugli wrote something about demoscene retirement when announcing this year's party.

Aww.

I guess it's reasonable, though. I do kind of wonder what'll happen with the parties, over time.

Though I guess there have been lots of parties that came and went, or, in the case of Assembly, became something different.

Regardless, hopefully people have a blast at Function.

In regard to Function, Maugli is open to pass the brand and opportunity to organize it to other individuals. Something like that already happened to other parties, Riverwash in Poland turned to Xenium while basically this is the same thing. Gubberdata, Sommerhack are exactly the same, just with different names in recent years.

I think until last scener dies, we'll have demoscene and events. maybe less. maybe smaller.. maybe different, eventually online ... but I'm not worried.
