Release id #102361 : arise #$10
A beginner's guide on getting your hands on "arise #$10" :)
-----------------------------------------------------------
This double DVD is format-wise quite an unique release, therefore it requires a quite unique spreading model.
It is deep in our minds that scene productions should be free, yet you have to be aware that costs of producing 2 professionally-printed DVDs with box and covers is a bit different from a 5,25" floppy. After long discussions within the group, we decided as follows:
1). "arise #$10" will not be a product for sale.
2). As we have decided to give it to the scene for free, taking into consideration our limited resources we have produced 50 boxed sets of this release. Those will be delivered as a gift by snail-mail to 50 people from the demoscene, both in Poland and abroad. Unfortunatelly, that 50 is far from the number of people we admire and respect in the scene, but we had to make this hard choice and we are really hoping that everyone not included in that 50 will not feel offended in any way!!!
3). For the rest, if you'd like to get your hands on this release, you have 3 ways of doing that:
a). option for the real swappers: the DVDs are not copyright protected in any way, so we don't mind AT ALL if you copy it from your fellow scener, any DVD-copying software should be able to do it with no problem (and it will bring back a nice memory of old glory, disk-copying days - right?? :D).
b). option for the real party animals: on every upcoming scene event with Arise members present, we will bring some copies for you. The closest occassion will be probably next Stary Piernik meeting, and we will definately be present at next X!
c). option for the real impatient ones: if you really, really, and I mean REALLY can't wait, just drop me (wackee) an email or personal message through csdb or any other board. We'll think of something, but you'll have to consider that shipping costs will be most probably on your side.

Amazing release and production. I had a hard day when I received it so I just wanted to take a peek when the day ended. Man I had to watch everything, I did not care that it was 2am.
Thanks for the good experience! You guys rule.

anyone who is not rabbit friends use google translate:
"Nie życzę sobie żeby to siedziało na torrentach. I chuj."
as said wackee.
So the concept of this release is to give the stuff only for "right one" members of the CSDB community.
I think this release breaks CSDB rules, EoD is for slum dogs, arise product is for the chosen ones.
For me is new history of releases on CSDB. |

Can the moderator that is behind deleting this entry explain to me the reasoning behind it?
The rule 7.3 states:
"if you for some reason are unable to upload a file, or provide a download link, you must add a reason why. Releases with no download link and no good reason why there isn't such a link might be removed."
The reason is: csdb cannot hold 2 x 4GB ISO files. |

"The reason is: csdb cannot hold 2 x 4GB ISO files."
you could easily upload it to scene.org .... or ask a moderator to upload it to csdb. this never was wanted though (and noone ever asked, quite the contrary is true, ppl asked for it and got told it will not happen)
i know its hard to understand for some, but video and audio DVDs/CDs/MPEGs/etcblablawhateverdoesntrunonc64atall doesnt belong here. and even more so if they are not available for the general public like this one. |

a) I thought things connected with demoscene belong here. Hardware with no download link is ok, paper art is ok, other platform tools are ok, somehow this DVD with c64 demos is not ok.
b) If giving it to every scener that gives a (slightest) shit (enough to write a damn email/fb/whatever) is not making it available for general public, then I don't know what is.
Both are excuses to play favourites. We already know you don't like us, don't have to prove it ALL the time.
But, I guess, why bother. Deleting this entry makes the database incomplete, the release lives on :)
