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? |

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. |

Personally, I like when there is relatively loud C64 or Amiga music playing in the background. During BFP 2013 when they tested speakers and other equipment they played Spot - Break the Box. For me, a perfect atmosphere for serious programming! The ideal situation is of course a C64 DJ playing music all day long. |
