Global Convention of Worldwide Demo Developers International, Inc. 2015
Party report!
The biggest and most fierce demo party of the year was held way up north at a place far, far away from the comforts of every day life. Only the most dedicated demosceners would even think of going.
This, the organizers knew, and only invited the elite of the elite. They are the most hardnecked ones, they can go through anything to be at the most prestigious coding convention the world has seen.
Most visitors travelled in convoy, as it minimized the hazards of being attacked by wolves and bears. Once arrived at the giant venue, it was an impressive sight. Demo coders working on prods from any means possible; sofas, chairs and armchairs, we even saw Falcons rigged up on low sofa tables, everything to get some code out of the old beasts.
Beverages were stored outside to keep them cold. Inside, the computers heated up the party hall to tropical temperatures.
Intense coding went by, hour after hour, as the only competition held would really separate the boys from the men. One competition equals only one way to win. No side-dishes such as 4k or 16-colour graphics. This was demoscene to the bone.
Food delivery services with elk-kebabs and even a priest in full uniform arrived to bless the event and make sure nobody was possesed by dark forces. Coding continued without mercy. Another energy refill with a whole pig ripped to bits dissapeared in no-time.
Later in the evening, the compos began. The presentation was carefully made with details of hardware specification (or, in some cases, software specification) and the tension was high. Once the prods started to show, one after the other, it was quite clear that we're seing stuff nobody could ever belive the machines are capable of.
The cheers and applauses went to greater and greater strengths, at it's most intense moments, the sound pressure meter displayed a deafening 132 dB from the audience roars. But even that was not enough to describe the extreme technical breakthroughs that were on display. It was out of this earth.
After the compos, some of the most prominent demo crews were fighting over breaking the rules, one side of the turbulent pit claimed it was about ONE BITPLANE and the other side said ONE COLOR. The blood poured as the fighting continued. The Ultimate Fighting Championship would be green of envy if had they seen the scene-ninjas duking it out, Cain Velasques who?
Who dare to visit Global Convention of Worldwide Demo Developers International, Inc. 2016, which is rumored to be held in the favelas of Rio de Janeiro? Are you elite enough?

What's the anti-troll code?
That's your personal code to be able to add comments and messages on the dhs.nu site.
Don't have a code or forgot it? Fix it here.
