 Re: [limiTED] 64bytes/(128bytes/)1024bytes democompo!

I have a suggestion/request. The demos should be anonymous. This means that they should bear no group logos or credits (or digitized speech that says "Coded by Degauss"). Well, you get the idea. I think this will help 2 ways:

- It will increase the fun factor. In addition to viewing cool new productions, you will also have a chance to try and guess who made them. I'm sure we will all be in for surprises when the names are finally revealed.

- It will decrease the voting bias. In some cases, some people might be influenced to vote higher for a production that was made by someone they like, or rate an otherwise good production lower if they don't like the coder.

Third (but I'm not sure if it's an advantage or not), this may force the coders to present a real message: e.g. the demo should say something that's in line with its feel, and not just "LOD Rulez Forever" and the kind wink. Anyway, I vote we do this. Let's hear the counterarguments.
