FUNCTION 2019 - September 13-15

category: parties [glöplog]
FYI maybe it goes without saying but consumer prices in HU are much lower than in west-EU so even if somebody feels squirmish about the flight ticket, the rest of the expenses (lodging, food & drinks, etc) kinda make up for it ;)

It's because of the 4 letter local mobility startup rule: if you want to get a > $1B valuation, you must have a 4 letter name. Uber? check. Lyft? check. Sidecar? fail. Same story for the electric scooter folks (Byrd Tier etc). Ofo went bust for a reason.

Aaaaaaand this year Function did it!

We did not just release an invite at Revision 2019, but had also a Funciton(al) party page from the very beginning of the Easter Party!

Many thanks for the team! I <3 you!

And for the visitors:
Please do not forget to check the invitation and register! ;-)

We're happy to announce, that given the possibilities at the new party location,
we've extended this year's musical program at Function:

Lesnik & Jacku, DSH, H0ffman, Retroid, Bacter, Teo, Lug00ber

I'm sure it will be a fantastic party again. Although I'm still not happy with the "no pcspeaker under freedos" 256b compo rule.
The new venue looks amazing, same as DJ line-up <3. Gosh, I really hope I can hit Function this year...

organizers: you should try to renew yourself even more already, we are in a world full of OO, so your party should be renamed to METHOD! :P (would still be a FUNCTION!)

Well it has always been a hack right?

It seems I'm unable to go since I have to be at work that weekend :(
Which is a shame since flights are available starting at 54 EUR.

Looks like the winning freestyle graphics entry from 2018s compo was a major success with the cosplayers.

...ah, as I am attending FUNCTION for the first time I got a question:
Not that I actually think I will win anything there, but you can never know, so... is prizegiving really, like stated on the website, around 1:30 am on early sunday morning already?

I mean.. that would be AMAZING as our flight back to Germany departs around 6-something AM. So if prize giving really happens that early in the morning (even with a possible delay of, let´s say, 1,5 hours...), I´ld be able to witness it before I pick up my wife at the hotel and go to airport by cab.

(not an orga, but) yep, it's done right after the compos end a bit after midnight. at least it's been like that forever.

A little info for you guys, when you are in Budapest and plan on going around the city instead of just being at the partyplace, get a weekly PKK (public transport) ticket - locally called 'hetijegy' - for about 15EUR. The 4-day variant is roughly the same price, so you're better off with the weekly one.
Exceptionally valid if you're with the crowd visiting Thu-Tue.

If you're not willing to sit on the same bus with the plebs, Bolt (ex-Taxify) is still your best bet. We have no Uber here any more :( They operate at standard taxi prices but more organized and less risk of bullshit.

Lodging is also a crucial question. Factory Hostel Budapest is in the same building as the partyplace. Not sure about the availablity, but you can fill a tailored-to-function aplication form here and pray.
Apart from that, AirBnB is your best bet, or whatever recommendation listed on Function's website.
(PRO TIP: try to find something on the rim of the overly touristy downtown if you want to enjoy the city as well. So something a bit off-center, but not very much. Oh and probably avoid Buda - west of Danube - because that's inherently much more expensive and the party is on Pest side - east - anyway)

Help WANTED with bringing a large-size (120 cm long) but non-heavy (2 kg) package over from Germany to this year's Function Party.

If you know of a scener who will travel to Function by car or train (the item in question would cause a problem for airplane travel), please let me know. Thanks!
