{3Come to my party!!!
{4If your group's holding a party of
some description and you want it to be
included on our list, send full
details to {3Tantalus {4at his address.

{6Thanks to Jaz of Quartz for sending me
the information on the Quartz Summer
Conference '92.
{2Quartz Summer Conference 1992
{7This summer {3Quartz {7will be holding the
first major 2 day Amiga event in
England. Unlike most other party
organisers we are not in it to make
money. {5All profits will go towards
prize money, and making this the best
party yet!!
{7Everything written below WILL happen.
These are NOT just empty promises!
{5When?: {7Saturday 8th - Sunday 9th
August, 1992.
{5Duration?:{7 10:00 am Saturday -
Midnight Sunday.

The address of the party-place is:
Puriton Sprots and Social club,
Puriton,

{4Competitions:
{7As well as the usual demo, graphics
and music competitions, there will
also be a 9 pin Skittles tornament
(for both individuals and teams), a
tug of war competition, a football
competition, and a darts competition.
There will also be some REALLY crazy
competitions such as a real-time RSI
demomaker competition, and a cool disk
throwing competition. There will also
be many other surprise competitions
(see later - Ed!) and a prize draw on
the tickets.
{4Competition judging:
{7The demo, graphics and music
competitions will be judged by you!
You will be issued with a voting form
upon your arrival, votes will be
collected and counted independantly,
so no-one can moan about vote rigging.
{4Prizes:
{7We plan to bring you the biggest
prizes EVER! For example, the first
prize in the demo competition will be
based on the number of people who
attend (so come along! -the whole DTY
coding department) For each ticket
sold, 1 quid is added. For example,
300 tickets sold means a first prize
of 300 quid!!! (Prize money for second
and third places will be worked out
using the same method for each Amiga
related competition.) Example prizes
for the non-Amiga related
competitions are: trophies, joysticks,
drinks vouchers, disks, old junk that
no-one wants, etc.
