| ERROR IN LINE #2 | (Atari Easter 2001 in Dresden, Germany)
| |
+------------------+
http://eil.atari.org
mail: eil@atari.org
Finally, the party is over. We are glad that almost everything went that
problemlessly and that most visitors seemed to have enjoyed the convention.
We are thankful for all the nice feedback we got from several people,
especially because we feared that EIL#2 may always be compared to EIL'99.
However, the atariscene had a good Easter again, with a huge amount of
high quality releases, which can be seen as a revival of the Falconscene
and as a demonstration what the Atari ST is capable of.
We want to thank all the visitors who made it a that funny party and we
feel like sending some special "thank you's" to all the people that took
part in the competitions (which are definitly a big part of a good con-
vention).
---+---
Although, some people who promised to come, didn't, and although some
people were too lazy or too busy to release things for EIL (Personally,
I was especially dissappointed from the few graphic-entries. We thought
three different graphic-compos might be motivating for the one or other
gfx-man, but as it seems, most of them don't care.), we also think, that
EIL was a great event for the Atarisceners.
It was a big pleasure to see, that ca. 80 Atarians appeared on the party
and how peacefully and friendly they got along for the four Easter days
(a bit confusing, especially if one follows the typical BBS-discussions
in the scene).
Another remarkable issue is, that there have obviously been no extremely
tactical votesheets this time. That didn't stop us to make that Falcon-
democompo counting mistake though. But as things are clearified now, re-
garding this topic, we can state, that the competitions and votes have
been very fair this time.
It was cool, that some people made several special things possible at EIL.
What I mean were features like the Gaming Competition, the release of the
FadingTwilight CD by McLaser, the existance of a cool game like Whippong
and so on. Btw.. we didn't expect that, but there were 32(!) people taking
part in the Whippong competition, which is just wow.. :-)
---+---
Unfortunatly, we couldnt get that much fun for ourselves from the party.
Of course it was nice to meet and see all the people again, but we would
have liked to spend some more time with them or with our computers.
After all, we were four people arranging EIL#2, which lead to a definitly
too stressy time for us. But that is something we should have known before.
Now, we are really looking forward to visit some other party again, maybe
an Easter party in the Netherlands next year, as some rumours claim.
So, there will be no Error In Line party next year for sure. Also 2003 is
not very probably at the moment, since we are just tired now.
Ok, we hope to remeet you all at another party soon.
