What does it take to arrange a good party?
I just noticed that there will be no LCP this year. Instead of pestering people who need a deserved break to make me a party, I think it would be interesting to investigate what sort of workload it would take to arrange a small (40-50 people) C64/other 8-bit party myself. Mind you, this is just at the level of throwing ideas about.
So, you experienced party arrangers out there: what are the pitfalls and what does your checklist look like?
There is also one thing that might make this kind of hard to pull off, and that is the fact that I live in Oslo, Norway. So you Swedes, Danes and other EU citizens - hypothetically - if a party in the southern part of Norway seemed well arranged and cosy and not too expensive in itself - would you consider coming? |

Bumping this topic. Or to be more exact the discussion about projectors in this topic.
A couple of years have gone by since these last comments about what models of projectors that were/are c64-friendly. Anyone with new experiences? Other models that also kick ass with regards to graphicmodes, colours, scrolling and so on.
Anyone tested some of the other (latter?) epson twxxx than these mentioned here (tw1000 and tw2000). I would gladly get a tw-1000 or similar, but these models are not that common in the secondhand market these days... |

At Datastorm they promised to have projectors that displayed 50 Hz totally smooth. And they delivered what they promised as far as I could tell. So get the same ones. |

free beer even better lol
i wouldnt go to one mate , blondie might beat me up with his blonde hair curler lol.
have to be a charge on the door , £15 quid sounds about right.
have to pay for the place n travel , ( free air ticket included in the £15 share the price between everyone )
its doable ..

Most important about a good party is good people.
And no hickups in showing the compo entries, so check your hardware, back it up and check it again.
Oh, wait, didn't see the bump :-)
Well, there's my point. |
