 |  Arok Party 2010
Hi,
we want to know your opinion about Arok Party's date this year.
According to last year's reactions we were thinking about 16-18th July. Place won't change (Ajka-Ajkarendek, Hungary)
Please report if it fits you or not!
It is important for us how many of you would like this date or not.
We try to send this email to as many people as we can, but we surely forgot possible visitors. Please, ask your friends too!
Thank your for your help!

Szia!
Szeretnénk kikérni a véleményedet az idei Árok Party időpontját illetően.
A tavalyi reakciókat figyelembe véve első körben JÚLIUS 16-18-ra gondoltunk változatlan helyszín mellett.
Kérlek, jellezz vissza, hogy ez megfelelő, vagy valami miatt problémás neked!
Fontos tudnunk, hogy hány embernek jó, illetve akadályoztatott ez a dátum.
Igyekszünk minél több emberhez eljuttatni ezt a levelet, de biztosan kifelejtettünk sok lehetséges érdeklődőt. Kérünk, hogy kérdezd meg ismerőseidet is!
Köszönjük a segítségedet!

Hi,
according to your reactions on Arok's date we have decided. The public choice made it clear, that 16-18. July is fine for most of you.

Sziasztok!
Az előzetes felmérések alapján úgy döntöttünk, hogy a felvetett július 16-18-i hétvégén kerül megrendezésre az idei Árok Party, mivel ez legtöbbeteknek megfelel.
A helyszínt le is foglaltuk. Ugyan ott leszünk, mint korábban is. A hivatalos honlap hamarosan elérhető lesz itt: http://arok.intro.hu
Ezennel megkezdjük a szervezést

Looks really nice. And Luca was there, as I can see.
I was wondering - are there a lot of 264 people or rather small amount in comparison to C64? Maybe I could try to get there too, heh.

Hi,
there are only a few weeks to Arok! If you haven't signed up to the pre-visitor list yet, do it now, help us organizing the meeting!
Place: Ajka-Ajkarendek/Hungary, Primary School Istvan Simon
Date: 16-18. July

On the party's homepage we told about a surprise. Now it's revealed: SIDrip Alliance is going to debut with an open-air concert at Arok. The band (Hermit, Earnie, Küki, SzléjerCsabi, NecroPolo, Vincenzo) plays remixes of well-known tunes. For best sound-pleasure we perpare for the loudest event in the Arok-series: we are going to use high quality audio equipment, thanks to the support of the Hungarian Demoscene Association.
If you can't be there but want to compete, you have the possibility to send us remote entries via email. For rules check the party's site!
Meet you soon! Best regards:
Cargo & Poison

| Re: Arok Party 2010
Didn't wanna be famous (see p4w main) but Chronos convinced me that it should be good to make an announcement about things I mentioned in a discussion at FB.
In short:
I'd most probably go to the party. Will bring hw -- a slightly hacked C-16, a stock Plus/4, 1541 (...I'm slightly reluctant to also bring a 1551 but possible), cards, disks etc. I'll also have a notebook with opencbm + XA1541 installed with me (if someone needs transferring stuff to/from disks). Possibly a Spectrum 128k +2 (with a CF-interface) if I get around to get it back into shape.
I've bought some 8501 processors at hqvideo recently (as suggested by some of you last year ). If someone needs a cpu in his C-16/C-116/Plus/4 to be replaced (black screen of death |-) ), we can arrange that as I guess (replacing a 8501 is pretty simple; these are always installed in sockets). If someone needs something else to fix (different symptoms, different equipment etc.), we could give that an attempt, too. But I'd ask you to contact me first, before the party (the sooner, the better) so that I'd know about what I should bring with myself. ...There's no charge, except components' price; the 8501 costed around HUF 2000, exactly (quick lookup) 1943 HUF each; TTL chips are still available and cost basically nothing, anything else is subject to the result of a lookup for them first... I only have few Commodore chips myself, almost all of them pulled out of various cbm machine wrecks.
I also have some, presumably interesting hw here in the flat -- an Atari 1040 STe, an Amstrad CPC6128, and two early, PET-keyboard VIC-20s (one PAL, one NTSC) + some stuff -- I can also bring some of them with me if someone's interested .

I was involved with two possible ones, but it looks like neither is going to make it. Well anyway, it around the corner now, so we can just wait it out and see. There's always time to release stuff afterward, even though releasing it on an event like Arok is nice.

At the moment, the only known stuff:
- several pictures on facebook, 8bit unrelated but with a sighted Pigmy in chequered shirt;
- 3 C64 gfx compo entries;
- lotta rumors about a megademo's second chapter, a digi onefiler and a misterious 3rd production too
EDIT: great news, the "megademo's second chapter" has won the compo! Gratulatok to... ;)

Heh, I knew that, but at the moment I dunno if Poison has shown the fixed one (if you remember how the demo de-exomizes, the older version shows the coloured char in the corner, whereas the fixed one does not show anything).
Anyway, I'm gonna release here the fixed one.

He (actually I) did show the fixed one. (Story: after having held the Amstrad CPC demoshow on Friday + being a Plus/4 guy I was asked to handle the Plus/4 entries of the compo; Poison handed over a disk to me with precisely this info; ie. the prod on the disk was the fixed version of the entry and that's why it had to be written to disk shortly before the compo).

I checked the plasma part in Total Lethargy for an "eastern" egg, and even for an easter egg, but couldn't find either. The only keyboard check is space checking which advances to the next part and there's no reset protection. I do see the original C64 demo text from $7000... is that it?
