First of all, we would like to thank all of you who attended Assembly '94 and gave us your precious support. Without you we could never have accomplished all this. Thanks! This text file was written to give people who weren't able to make it to Assembly some idea of what it was like. We are going to release more information at a later time in the Result Intro and also on the CD-ROM. Anyway, let's get down to business... In general Assembly '94 was a big success. We had the total of 2800 whole weekend visitors and 600 short visit visitors, which means that Assembly '94 was the biggest demo party held so far. Around 60% of all visitors were PC owners, the rest were Amiga and C-64 owners. All the sponsors were satisfied and most of them were present at the party place as well. In the end the sponsor list looked like this: 1. Advanced Gravis 2. Terton / ZyXEL Telecommunations 3. Compaq Computer 4. IBM 5. ATI Technologies 6. Toptronics 7. Epic MegaGames 8. Id Software 9. Sound Solutions 10. Creative Labs 11. Waite Group Press 12. Team 17 13. SSI 14. PC SuperStore 15. Megazone 16. Cute Communications 17. Finnish On-Line Games 18. Foley Hi-Tech & Hyperware 19. Data Fellows 20. Pro Component There was a lot of people from the media present, for example a news crew from CNN. The overall quality in the competitions was good. The 4kb intro competition on PC was the most surprising one, but ofcoz all the other competitions were good too.

Only the winners in the Graphics competition will have to wait a while to get their prizes. This is because we have to at least try to find out which pictures might be direct rip offs (like the picture which originally came in third, made by Louie / Insane, which is tecnhically a good picture but directly drawn from Heavy Metal magazine, and thus disqualified). But as always, not everything went completely as planned. The biggest thing people complained about was the delays in between and during the competitions. In the end the PC demo competition, which was the last competition, was delayed by around one and a half hours. We were supposed to show only ten of the demos on the big screen, but the jury wasn't able to watch all the demos in time. That's why we had to show twenty demos even though we didn't really have the time for it. And to get the time, we decided to let the audience decide when a demo should be stopped/interrupted. But this only made some groups very angry. To correct this at the next party the finals should consist of only the top 10 demos, which would not be stopped no matter what. It was not our meaning to offend those groups who felt mistreated, and we would like to apologize. More news are to follow later! /Assembly '94 organizers
