   B this day everything was full of rainbows
hopes. Until Paul Pavlov
didn't say what the assembly hall is for
for acts.  Unfortunately, laterit turned out that he was 100% right.  B
this day I didn't do anything particularly buggy
I noticed, except that the sound in the hall turned out to be
mono, and Navigator aka Psycho pestered me
with my badge (so I laminated it and
cut a hole), and also, disgusting, for-
flogged me with his trembling hands, something
cutting there.  And also give him a hand at the entrance

beds, 4 posted advertisements about Linoleu-
me containing an error in the URL zx.da.ru and

   A couple of pussies were brought into the hall
(K6-2/300 and K6-2/450 instead of the promised
P2-300), projector and 128th Pentagon, similar
live more on the Baltic.  They'll bring it tomorrow
another “two hundred ton”, for the day after tomorrow -
"Pro."  On real Spec they will scroll
only one demo, out of competition... But not
we will run ahead of the one urinating on the wind-

   After spending a couple of hours with the organizers, I
set sail.

   In front of the assembly hall there was a crowd of
family I managed to meet several familiar
ours, including and only virtually, in person
kov, somehow: Equator, Specter, Ope Man,
"baby" SuRGE with a fairly rounded
American hot dogs with a muzzle (at a party no-
which he didn’t bring, because the broom with the music flew out
us) and a bunch of other people.  As

Let's face Basara from Vitebsk. What's going on

once, more than a year ago... Sorry, man...  
   Everyone just gave birth to hedgehogs from the desire to quickly
to enter the assembly hall and engage in
acts... don't think bad,
VOTING (ugh, it's still gone
somehow)... Tornado immediately offered me
ticket for girls, but then I agreed,
that men's will be better (on girls'
there was a big "F" curve drawn
pen). Wolf generally stated thatI'll pass-

forget how I woke up in the middle of the clear

We basically just worked with him,
what about... criticism of works, and sometimes
quite loudly, although behind the roar there was almost nothing
which was not heard.                     
   Well, here it is 12:00. Everyone pours into the hall,
seat anywhere. En-
a large number of people, I don’t dare say,
exactly how much, but clearly more than the number

but for some reason it doesn’t bother everyone...

glitches of organizers. Personally, these

it is clear that this hall is for acts, and not for
composites. The sound is simply terrible. It is especially clear
but it will become on the second day, at the moment
holding AY music compo.               
   During the viewing process, the best was

a complete picture was created of what
happened in the hall.

on stage and weakened something on normal

pleasure. All other melodies are merged

repeat 4 (and this is at least) times in a row?
Why does everyone think that a short song is
bad song? To the busy public (I can
speaking from my own experience) it seems quite
on the contrary: often after the end of the sequence
of the new opus, there were screams like “Yes!
It's finally over!"

I was generous and gave the picture 10 points,
depicting two manic-depressives

network of enemies" or something like that

except 10 points)... There was also a girl

   As always, at 10:00 there was nothing.
"Profi" was glitching - did not read discs, in some places
organizers were also glitchy, apparently after yesterday
ours.

   Out of competition, we played a bunch of Amiga

They were spinning at all. I learned JAM in the Access demo
from Digital Reality (dancing silhouettes), in
Access learned parts from the Queen video about
Invisible Man`a... Paths of silhouettes heucno-

too much too long

   At 13:35 a break was announced until
15:00 to count the points. Went to
hut, looked at the computer, went back...

Again nothing started. From the 8th kilometer -

holding out until the end of the day. Seated wok-

kind, damn... They catch your eye over-

Pros: 1) _IT_ is all so well done. Believe me, in Belarus this is
          hard to do.                                     
  2) worked really well.                  
  3) let's hope that the organizers will also draw conclusions.
