Error In Line II counting mistake April 20th, 2001
As most people has been saying after the EIL2 party, the Toys demo 'Wait' is an excellent one, and everyone has been more or less confused how it could end up at second last place.. Well, there seems to have been a slight mistake during the counting of the votes, something that easily happens when you're dead tired, but still try your best. But apparently it happens even the best.

You can read the official note about the accident below.

After having read several statements in the internet and after we had found time to have a look at the Falcondemos that were released at EIL, we came to the conclusion that something might have gone wrong when counting the vote-sheets. Especially since the Toys-demo is obviously not fitting that well to the 5th place.

However, now we have recounted all votesheets again to verify our counting. We discovered a embarassing mistake concerning the Toys-contribution 'Wait.'

Actually, we wonder where those mystical 70 points have escaped to during that Sunday night. But however, they are back now on the votesheets.

And that leads to a new ranking order for the F030-demo competition:

FALCON DEMO COMPO
1. Escape Hmmm... 366
2. DHS Don't break the oath 328
3. Toys Wait 297
4. Paranoia Rock solid 234
5. Remo Coffeine overdose 233
6. Spice Boys Pizza 191

We feel very sorry about that mistake and want to excuse us especially at all contributors of the F030 demo compo.

Of course everyone can keep their prizes, every entry deserves one for sure. Additonally, we will contact Toys, so they will get an additional price for their 3rd place.

Sorry again! We hope that this will not spoil the good memories of the party.
