Start of October like you had one year. It was really nice weather for drinking beer outside. |

Is it really just these 2 slots you're thinking of?
Why not September/October 2020 when the weather is still pretty decent down there? It would also keep my "inner X-clock" in time.. :-) |

X stands for 10, thats the 10th month witch is october. It should stay in or around october. And at the even years. And i agree with Flex.
If i have to make a choice go for XI (november 2020) |

Yeah. I wonder why you consider 2021? :'( It has been every second year for a long time, so what's the reason to move it further away? I like the chilly X weather. Perfect data weather. |

I think the late/odd dates have to do with whether De Hoof is available or not and how much cash you are willing to part with for renting the location. |

I'd have a hard time waiting longer for the party as well, but due to weather considerations I also opt for May 21. |

changing timeslot of a party has been proven in the past that it had a terrible negative impact/influence on a party! (amount of visitors / releases and such)
Take a look at Datastorm going from february to august :(
Dont change the timeslot or year! period!
Thanks |

Besides, May really isn't a guarantee for good weather, as Scan has proved. And personally, i'd trust a late summer during September/October more, like Cruzer and Flex do. |

Quoting KrillMr Ammo and X team: May i ask what the reason is for considering another time slot for the party in the first place? The challenge is that almost all time slots for 2020 are already booked at the party place.
So, before making any decisions, we thought it would be good to consult you guys. |

We'll take November 2020 for this time. But please mr.Ammo while you at the office in Someren, make reservations and bookings for October 2024,2026,2028 and 2030 and negotiate for a good quantum deal. And take the weekends with that extra hour ! 😜🍻 |

I agree with LKP too, however it is either a party in Oktober and the party starts Friday 20:00 or May/November and the party starts around 13:00 |

@Tim. That means that there was a third option
[ ] End of November 2020

[x] weekend in October 2020 from friday 20:00h onwards ?
As some say; The party is outside (from 13:00h - 20:00h ) |

If there was a third option, I would go for that. I enjoy going outside a lot. End of November, not so much.

This!
All other options will inflict a terrible misalignment to the c64-scene-X-clock which sits deep inside of my body (well, guess of every C64-sceners' body:)=)).
Would changing the location be an option (just asking)?

The main reason why organising a party in October is not an option is the limited preparation time available to us. The venue provides access from 18:00 onwards which gives us not enough time for setting up the partyplace. |
