FunTop98 - count the votes.

        Circles, dots ... :-)

   ... "Ten, twenty ... One hundred and fifty!" This is the 
real statistics, it seriously. And three - for three, not one! 
- Head bent over a pile of colorful ...". That's right, it's 
about Enlight'97. 

   The counting of votes after the inauguration (smiley face or 
something, put it? ;-)) The closing of the Festival FunTop98 
differed from enlaytovskogo except that the lack of open sky 
above - the process occurred in the study of informatics at the 
fifth floor. Equal footing with open-air lacked electricity - 
"Lifeline" has already been phased out, because in that 
apartment, where she was stretched out, people the same live, 
it was impossible to stretch their ad infinitum ... Technique 
of counting the votes with pen and paper for a long time to 
remember did not have to, thanks to E'97 she was apparently so 
well run-in, that so far no one has "emerged" on this issue 
(which I, frankly, still surprised! 8-()). Four people - the 
number of past compo - sat around a table and four blank sheet 
of paper began to be covered mysterious markings - dashes, 
dots, circles ... From office equipment was available 
calculator with erased numbers on the keys. Nevertheless, 
somewhere in the 20 hours managed to finish removing the final 
tsifiri ... 

   The Rules of the Festival was mentioned that the Organizing 
Committee has the right to recover its costs from the amount 
that would be generated from ticket sales. We decided to 
reimburse only the following: electrical cable and wiring - 360 
rubles; videorazvetvitel and cables - $ 100;

Consumables - 60 rubles.

   Konex and ZX-Shadow, invested their own money into making 
T-shirts with the logo of the Festival, have refused even to 
compensation for damages (alas, selling T-shirts did not bring 
profits rather the contrary), they decided to try to fill the 
losses due to the subsequent sale of goods (t-shirts can be 
purchased now - they are still there, although their number and 
diminished ;-)).
