    Say what you like, but this summer a very eventful in
party'ynoy life. However, in our country, except enema
done through the ass, what we face on DI: HALT.
Initially, everything was uncertain - potsapalis organizers and
went nicely (read ZXpilot). Then everything looked rosy
- New competitions, rules, etc. And over all this
_kalom_ ...


    However, first things first.


    BeerManZ arrived in Dzerzhinsk about 8.30 am. Bay mouth
a bottle of beer, began circling around the college, not finding
no information where and when will "freeze";)


    After some time to draw a comrade, whose nick we
unfortunately I do not remember, and led us to where gathered
future participants DH'99 - Eternity Industry, Proxima and 
others. (MMA: Based on additional data known to me, unknown

companion was SPY / EI)


    In person I knew only one of those present - Pyrodex'a / EI
(2 nd place in the PC 4k intro compo at CC'999), but this was 
not obstacle for live communication. Revealed the following:


- Real time coders compo will not be
- There will be three computer monitors and _odin_
- Will be a cool sound
- As usual - lots of music, sea charts, and four demo
- Registration begins at 10:00


    And registration began in 10 hours! As long as people 
handed operation, TRiViAl DWaRF and incited me to create 
DeMoDYiN final release, but then spat on that idea (and they 
were right). 


    Suddenly, somehow immediately began GFX compo. Explicitly 
or konverchennyh lapped the work was not much, but discussed 
them in the main artists, I commented only familiar scenes.



    Then moved to CHuNK_GFX. Here it was rampant conversions
so I do not remember. Generally, in my opinion,
HaRD_CoRE v2.61 is difficult to draw anything from scratch.


    The next was 3CoLOuR_GFX compo. M-m-da-ah-ah-ah ... Of the 
five work was four konverchennyh, and one exhibited in

CC'999, as usual, but then it was torn. We slightly
screwed up, as DWaRF brought me two files that make up its
Dragon'a, of which I have at night in black and white monitor 
glued single and mixed up in some places the layers. Therefore 
DRAGON actually does not look right. However, our work was done 
on 80% of pens DWaRF'a than could be distinguished from other, 
stupidly carried over from other platforms.



    I'm looking forward to ASCii compo. Fucking thank you very 
much Demiurg'u A $ H'u for MoDeRn_WoRd, because they produced 
one awesome the flow of feces that have resulted. To be honest: 
in addition to my work (IMPOSSBL) and NAPALM promotion had 
nothing to watch. Of course, if someone does not agree, write 
to - to convince:) 


    Somewhere in the middle of the compo viewer hanging, and we 
heard as follows: "The remaining works will be shown in 
BestView 2.8". I not slowed down yell: "What else BestView?" 
and convinced organizers that they were wrong. The fact that 
BestView very raunchy font height of 6 lines, to top it all

More troubles and mutilated.

About MuSiC compo you tell TRiViAL, I allow myself only a couple
words:

- Remember the three works: TD VOL 1 (TRiViAL / BMZ) and MEHTb!
(Mm <M / Sage) - copyrights, and 100DNEY - a remix of "100 days 
before order. "The rest of the music for me was like a medley of

"Pea soup rulez" and "pumts-vzhzh-wow";)


         And then came a feast for the soul - DeMo_CoMPo!

The first demo - FRee_ArT, written VolGaSoFt'ami was old
More on CC'999. Second, MuSCaTe, middle, at the half. Third
DeMoDYiN pre - say nothing about this 16k intro:) And the last -
welcome LiFeFoRmS, renamed NaPaLM. This is
compo real job, it _valevo_, _mesivo_ and _kroshevo_ in
one bottle. Better to see once! Recommendations of the best
drive! Hooray!


            Now doveryu pisalku TRiViAL'u and go smoke.



    Hi!

Of course, DI: HALT began chaotically. I (and not only me) do 
not even interlayer, when the GFXcompo. Organizers there is 
something tested, and then silently, without opening ceremony 
began display graphics.



    My impressions of the GFX coincide with the opinion 
GoBLiN'a, so proceed to MuSiC compo. It began with the words 
"Let's begin. Job Number 1. "Graphically, feature-rich player, 
written by local "Coders" for the components, once refused to 
play. Again for 2-3 minutes pause, followed by a bang from the 
speakers. Finally all began. Pleasantly surprised by the second 
thing 

GBL> let me interrupt the speaker. When listening to the second

     thing, I felt that this MM <M. And yet the way it

     Timeout. Yes, not to offend the author, but its components 
work, I know 

     for Space-Jarre this style. That's cool!

TVL> Then went SUXX-MiX and I went to try nicotine
sticks (my job almost three years ago was the 12 th). For
I went BeerManZ and Eternity Industry. Edge of the ear of the 
smoking room tried to hear the beginning TaLeS Of My DReAm, but 
to no avail. Silence. I go to the gym. Horror. Perelivchiki 
quiet and dull sounding. READY IN TWO MUSIC CHANNEL! One of the 
organizers receive top on bonce and begins with a familiar 
setting Bayda "Equipment" (by the way, "equipment" for 
components - two rotten Speakers and HOHLYANDSKY :-) fart 
amplifier is not more than 25 watts!) 


    Where were the musicians - the authors of 11.4 tracks, I do 
not know, I only guess. What to listen to - too. (Where were 
those, and listened to), but almost all MuSiC compo was held in 
two (k) anal. And under threat was DeMO compo. We had all the 
time to sit in the hall and monitor the sound.


GBL> only when I'm tired of listening to the winners you prove

     that the two channels back. And it's back to TRiViALovskom

     track!

TVL> Places were as remarkably fair, after all cards

     voting "bought" only organizers, VoLGaSoFT, yes

     PRoXiMa (on the strength of 15 people). (MMA: According to 
my information 

     VolgaSoft'y did not attend the party)

GBL> now describe the results.

GFXcompo: black and white picture ErEiN KLaiNe won first
place. If the EC undressed near the mirror to yourself
draw, with her cat, which became the prototype of a lion, 
refused to heart. Rather slop second place - a HUNTER. AND

the only decent thing, took third place.

However, a pity that PARACEL $ / EI in the number of winners 
has not got. 

3CoLoUr GFX: I've already said everything. If daily chew 
BlendaMed, then your eggs will be strong. And if you cool to be 
able to convert schedule - then the "components" you are among 
the winners. EVERYTHING! 

CHUNKgfx: Kucha shrieks from the center of the hall where we 
sat, caused image rays. If you've seen FAREVYR / DR, then think 
of the picture before greetings. So it was her black and white 
version. The first place went to such _kalu_ that I can not 
describe. 

ASCii: I pay tribute to Ashe, but could be done and steeper, as 
in its HeresY he unashamedly pulls a picture from pc-shnoy team

ACiD. Of the three NaPaLm promotion, in my opinion, was not 
chosen the best.


MuZaK compo. In the first place - a set of sounds along the way 
one from the organizers. Second place - if I'm not mistaken, 
this is "Cops!". Third place was shared TaLeS oF My DReAM, "100 
days before order "and even some odd job. (MMA: It's worth 
noting that Results of all competitions except the demo compo, 
treated quite differently by both the organizers and

participants.)

DeMo CoMpO - N0 CoMMeNtS.

Why did it happen? And this TRiViAL already said.

Now about prisuschschschih to party. From the outside it looked 
like BMZ-EI hangouts. Rest of the people sat quietly and 
watched / listened to. After CC'999 it was so wild!


About the way home I do not want to talk, still shudder.


         For and on behalf of BeerManZ for BornDead.

                        GoBLiN, TRiViAL.
