Paradox'2k - the story of the Rostov SerzhSoft'a demopati.

               ... WORLD LABOR, MAY, PARADOX! ...



    $% SerzhSoft, 2000



                        And I was there, soda / vodka / beer 
drinking 

                        His mustache is not dripping - because 
all shaved off! 



    Paradox - it sounds good! On this solemn note, you can
and to conclude this report, but I still will throw a little 
more disk imaging ... :)



    Yes ... This time I did not expect from myself, that I can 
so alienate! ;) Imagine: Session begins, with _poslednyaya_

and most important for all five years of study at the 
institute, so it begins, and a Serzh breaks and was breaking in 
some kind of The paradox, far away, in the Land of Rostov, 
Kuzia on Soon the train as much two days just ride and ride ... 
;) 


    Yes it is another thing, because there is another feature 
available ... Here, for example, in CC'999 to Peter, I went 
knowing only the phone some Merlin'a, and so I did then and do 
not catch me, too "Contact phone organizer (at that time saved 
me Inet-cafe and Ars'FTL + Copper Feet, for which they huge 
thanx!). But now, traveling in the direction of Rostov, I have 
had in the address book only emails Dimon'a / OHG and Semen'a / 
HR! :)))) And yet the magic words "Center-Internet ... ;)



    Before leaving, yet just came a letter from Dimon'a where
He tried to explain how to get to the venue of
station, but for such a description to which the Khoi-poobryvat 
in next time! Already approached Rostov, I gradually began to

try to find out from neighbors in the compartment - where to 
find the "Factory Mikoyan" and where only Dimon had dug such a 
name? 


    Indigenous Rostov shrugged their shoulders in amazement! 
Not only that - cops at the station just lost his voice and 
could only mumble something obscure, like "We are humble 
people, but we themselves are not local, "...:) Well, there is 
a description of something said about the trams, something 
like: "... idete na ostanovku tramvayev 1 i 5 ... "He came and 
sat down ... in 5'y ... 


    Come on, sunny, cool, nice ... Asked some girl
about the ill-fated "Factory Mikoyan" - again, round eyes,
add - "there should still be Internet Center" ... :) Honestly
saying - I did not expect that the discussion on this topic
including gender-wagon! :))) The majority agreed on the opinion 
that I need to go on Budyonnovsk Avenue (there is another market

one) and stomp on it, and there - I find ... :)


    Okay, went and looked at the same time video, and then have
trading guys asked about the "C-I" (Mikoyan did not mention -
still beat for this:)). The guys were very good-natured and
vied with each other to explain that "the Internet - yes, that 
is right is "Mail. Telegraph." - So I go "...:) A little 
distracted and noting that the Rostov - a very nice city and 
people there are very benevolent, as in St. Petersburg! :) I 
liked it! 


    Of course, shove a distance, so even with a rather big; (
bag rather unpleasant, but it was compensated well
weather and new unforgettable impressions ... :)))


    Finally I came across the Telegraph, "the Internet. Um, 
that something is not right! About the "paradox" Nobody heard 
anything, Inet costs 60 rubles per hour ... Obviously not got 
there! :) But at the mention of "Internet Center" something 
flashed in the eyes "of the local admin", I immediately plans 
are drawn, and even took to the streets to show the direction 
... :)))) Great! Thank you! ;)



    By the way later, while studying bought me cards
Rostov, it turned out that to get to the notorious
"Centre-Internet" might just a little walking from train station
foot first on Chervonoarmiiska, and then turn left and
go to Budennovsky avenue! :) And do not trudge through the 
entire city ​​of the Central Market! ;)))



    F-Fuh, last jerk, and here it is - a green sign CENTER -
Internet, information system "" I went up to the second floor,
yourself in a spacious room snowy neatly along
walls could be seen nice little tables with computers, there is 
even "Pigeonhole rest with soft seats, where you can just sit

and the rest ...


    In general - great! :) The good-natured admin, however, 
said that nothing about the paradox he does not know, but at 7 
o'clock to go some people like the organizers ... :) Heh, yes 
even found venue! :) So I relaxed a bit and took an hour

Internet for a 25 ruble ... Mirc'i, unfortunately, was not well
though I have a floppy disk found arhivchiki - so that after
a small installation, I still managed to get on the # z80 and
chat with dep'pht, zoolook'pht, Copper Feet, Point777'pht and
other ...


    Dep just terribly tormented by the question - how to do a 
Boolean XOR operation using only AND, OR and NOT ... :)))) I for

fun offered to send me 10 bucks for a solution, but a bourgeois
Dep:) specifically commanded, was to strain their aging brains
and still doper to solve the problem: A xor B = not (A and B)
and (A or B).


    Incidentally, in the cafe at this time oshivayutsya and 
guests from Moscow - and it is a bird-troika THROB'erov ... :) 
As time went on, we waited Organizer ... At # z80 time flunked 
relict'pht and its good luck:) had to agree with me that 
zashlet my soap its image PDX'a! :)



    Painted and the old Phantom Lord! (Chat, not in a cafe:))
Accepter'y going to come tomorrow morning, and it has been
cool! Phantik asked - how is the weather, how many are taking
vodka, and all things ... :)


    Suddenly out of nowhere ... appeared good uncle Twinzen,
introduced, and finally I was able to learn more about disk 
imaging impending festival ... :) And after a while close-knit

Organizers have filled up the crowd and went for a walk ... 
uh-uh ... Customize hardware ... :))) But I noticed it 
immediately, because for the first time raped the opportunity 
to play in the third Quake (15 p / h)! ;) 


    As it turned out the school first Q was not bad, so that
the level of dm13 I was surprised to discover was ranked first 
by the number of frags! :) However, it later incorporated some 
space level, and then I left with a margin of minus, because it 
is constantly falling from this fucking Cosmo. platform! :) 
Well to hell with it, with This 3'm Quake'om ... It turned out 
that THROB'ery also respect it Q1, and we decided with little 
pokomponovatsya ... :))) 


    It was then, and it was found that training my duelnaya
seriously lame ... , (I somehow got used to playing in the 
"meat" used to that rushing a roller and sweeps its way all that

stir and farts loudly ... :))) The guys take turns chasing me
Bat as the empty barn, it was just great, though
a little sad. :) Well done guys! :) The most shit - it
When run, but because of the angle you rocket towards the right 
in the forehead! : ( After this lesson, I was really redefined 
the training regime - Thanks for the lesson! :)))))



    Suddenly I was approached by Demiurge Ash ... :) Introduced,
However, as Cusick / Sinclair Club! :)))) But it looks cool! ;)
Rapidly began to solve all problems and to appear
friendly person, before the familiar except by correspondence 
and are hearsay: Semen'HR, PST'HR, Joker Lamer (no offense will 
be say, just his name, but many are good, and

guy, like, not bad, just a phrase
cool ... :)))) ...


    After finishing the alignment of all equipment and 
podglyuchenie went from house to house, and I was sheltered 
Semen'HR, for which of huge THANKS to him, his lovely sisters, 
and all native! Incidentally, before that is already registered 
Semen'a Cusick ... :) 


    I singled out sofa, Cusick cot, but he still went
PST in order to copy the picture for Relict'ovskuyu COMPO and 
at the same time try to finish your ... :) I presented a poster 
and vote-list from the previous festival, and told many 
interesting and instructive, but I'm here all I will not write 
- that you are from burst with envy! :)))))




    Early in the morning Semen cheerfully jumped and started 
skipping:) run arisen around somewhere on a cot Cusick, kicking 
him and attempt to coerce the heroic Wake up in the name of the 
glorious things Paradox! :)))



    Puffy Cusick listlessly kicking and screaming, that today he
put on a damn entot festival that nifiga it a night and
did not draw, and do not get enough sleep ... :) And every crazy
Organizers may be sent to all four sides and three
letters:), just to give him a little more sleep, and by 12, well
maximum in the evening it will drive up ... :)))))


    Enraged Semen does not give up, and already almost 
overturned cot upside down, but Cusick miraculously held, not

vypadyval and still managed to snore ... :) This time me and
managed to capture on pictures! ;)


    Still, with all the grief in half rose, had breakfast and
were soon riding on a bus to a familiar yet with the
yesterday, an Internet Point ... By the way, I'm cool
prikolnul version of the fare at the Rostov transport.
No tickets needed, just at each stop in the beginning
only opens the front door and all exit, paying from 2 to 4
rubles (depending on transportation) ... Then open up the rest
doors and now enter into the new passengers ...
Originally, sir! :)))


    After passing through the city (Semen managed to live on 
the edge :))), We have a friendly little crowd crawled out of 
the bus near the venue and displaying the wonders of 
camouflage, steel closer to the crowd, a club near the entrance 
... 


    But Partyzans - they then men and have, so
unharmed in the "Internet Center" were leaked just Semen and 
PST, others were drawn into the whole party, the long and 
blowing on its blue with the endless hand-shaking hand ... :)



    Who was here: Partyzans (OHG, DHG ...) were,
probably half of the total mass of the people, remember Mr.Nut 
'and of DHG, a we chatilis at # z80, padlyugu:) Dimon'a, which 
for Factory Mikoyan "fuck little! ;) Immediately attended

Krasnodar: "Big" Maxx, "mustachioed curly hair electrician"
VTS and Striker. Funny guy in a white baseball cap, according 
to type similar to Raver'a of PHT, was Disabler'om / DPL. :) 
Well, Of course, there were buduyuschie heroes buhariki 
PDX'2000 - Group Accept Corp. headed by the uncle and the 
Phantom Lord'om Mot'om ... ;) 


    In the circle of vengeance Accept'ovskom went from hand to 
hand almost an empty bottle with fuel and lubricant, or more 
simply - vodyaroy ... :) And half of it, apparently, drank it 
Mot! :))) And no wonder that after a while Accepter'y

immediately went to the nearest phone booth, simulating
insane desire somewhere to call, trying really to
a natural desire to ... ;) Then stall can be
turned into an aquarium (well at least not in a terrarium)! :)))


    After some time, and a couple of bottles:) appeared Semen
and for everyone:) distributed last year diplomas ...


    I held it in the hands of a diploma for the first brick 
Paracels'a place in the ZX-GFX and with great difficulty 
overcame the desire to something there to ascribe. ;)



    At the same time collecting diskettes with unregistered 
works Semen decorously retired, and after some time, 
particularly Alert comrades noticed that it is already possible 
to go inside ... AND calmly proceeded to the hall.



    Others prosekli that it is unclean, and all too Rushed
crowd, so it formed a small, typical of all party,
crush ... :) The registration was free, and sitting at the 
entrance to two the girls were recording all incoming and 
issued Vote-sheets and Various reklamki ...



    People are gradually coming, and the number spektrumistov
approximately equal to the number pisishnikov, which was 
somewhat unusual watch! :))) The total number of people came up 
to hundreds man, but what is most sad, it was little known / 
famous individuals and groups ...



    For a while I walked across the hall and scare away:)
the organizers of his huge bag, asking - where would it
attach ... Finally, I got tired of it's fun and I
pritknul it behind organayzerskogo ZX-socket ... :) Before
Spectrum COMPO was still a lot of time, so I
decided to once again get out on irc - so maybe someone will 
have time to send their Work ... It's sad, but 'Net has been 
paid, and again had to put 25 rubles! : (



    At # z80 reigned revival and partying familiar 
personalities: Dep'PHT, Raver'PHT, Orange Fox (Diver'4D), 
Jtn'4D, MMA'XTM ... Just at this time to announce the opening 
and went Paradox'a first CHIP MUSIC COMPO.



    The organizers also started and the first global troubles - 
and it "flew" screw Joker'a with its pc-demos and spekrumskim

Emulsion! : (Well, the most common problem for all ZX
last year's party - was again unable to connect
Speccy in color: while some glimpses were, but then
picture at all had only black and white ... : (For the sake of
interest were launched C2H5OH I and II, and I was able to see 
firsthand how it sucks (especially the second part) looks only 
at B / W projector (even the color monitor as on CC'999, was 
not)! : (((



    After CHIP COMPO started PC HAND GFX, but I at this time
continued to sit at # z80 and incite people to send work to
PDX, parallel to describe what is happening ... ;)


    Raver sent Mouzon (who later, however, cut down
preselect represented Semen'a - not enough places in the grid 
works), and then another, and helped with emulators - threw 
shalaev'sky and from lion17, and yes even Heresy # 6, which we 
immediately and watched ... :) Orange Fox yelled that 
Semen'ovskom email-box is a picture from Siril'a (bspp) and 
want to quickly check ... :) 


    Standing behind Dimon knew the password to access and 
seamlessly, so that they had heard only half of the hall, he 
said it to me ... :))) But "Soap" was nothing - is the picture 
had already been "downloaded" eve ... ;)



    Excellence in combat and political training MMA stated that
his diploma, and generally exhibit at PDX nothing they were 
going to and will not be! And here came by once again to 
channel Andy Fer had send your Mouzon, who attended the party. 
;) 


    But all good things must come to an end - come to an end
Time and the Internet ... : (


                              ...


    That such a text, I hurriedly scribbled immediately after 
the arrival of Rostov. Seething mass of impressions and looking 
out at postorah Zx-Word'a ... :) But, the surrender of missed 
exams, and then State-examinations and other problems prevented 
finish the ... Following burned Scorpion, and everything died 
down ... : (Now I rusty decent set of small, but very cool items

those "paradoxical" time. But believe me - it was
just great! ;)


    Worth at least what it was I had to spend ZX
GFX COMPO, and the next day along with several other
zx-guys count the voting results ... Take second
place in the arm-wrestling compo, half the night playing with 
Phantom Lord'om in "Goat":) and miraculously still leave Rostov 
home ... :) Yes, Paradox really lived up to its name, but I

really liked it!

unforgettable experiences you will not get anywhere else and
never ... :) And before the trip can instill in myself, that all
will be shitty, rotten, etc. :))) And then every pleasant
