Event id #3294 : X-2024

I was having a discussion with a few guys over beers in X'2023 and the compos. I was telling about my days as OR8 pilot in the RC world where we had junior, hobby and pro categories for the races.

To make it abit more motivational the people/groups who aren't 20 members strong each with 30+ years of demo coding experience it might be worth while considering other options ?

eg. some of the ideas we discussed:

. Having a pro (ie previous winner category) and hobby section so that contributors are compared to peers of similar experience
. Splitting the voting/ranking for 1 filers from multi disk entries
. Newcomer award for those individuals or teams who never submitted to X before

Any pre-X warm up meeting happening on Thursday somewhere near the venue? Maybe right in front of the venue?

I second Ninja's question. :)

(Ninja, what kind of weird pre-X sleeping arrangement do you have, that makes the outskirts of Someren into the most convenient location, on Thursday?)

@Quiss: Well, my "sleeping arrangement" is motorized, so I am quite flexible. I think I assumed ppl BBQing on Thursday already without the need for a sleeping place till Friday. Seems, I am stuck in the past and times have changed...

@gpz: Meeting in Eindhoven sounds great. Quiss, will you join?

Yeah, I'm down!

(A campervan? That's clever. I'm sleeping in Rotterdam, Thu->Fri. But the trains are quick.)
