Well, one day even "winnerdemo" had to be beaten...

Shifter: FRaNKy submitted the original version too, under the name Frank D. I guess we were the first, then :-P

konsumer: RIJ is not to blame for the dry spell in the demo competition. Look elksewhere.

@Oemfoe & Shifter : "Feestje" didnt run on the compo machine, so they showed the 64k indeed.

btw it didnt run at solskogen either. maybe something with vista? it would be good to sort this out before nvscene.

For me entering Rob is Jarig in a demo compo is like posting scat porn in an otherwise decent discussion on here.
"Rob" is extremely Vista-incompatible.. Wont run as administrator or in compatibilty mode. In the end it might die out when all compo machines migrate to Vista :-)

Ssssh! They might end up fixing it...

fixing the prod only leads to another loophole :(

praise the lord for emulators! :)

Yeah, but if we're going to follow through with that analogy, you then find out that there's a disturbing amount of people who appreciate the scat porn.

Doesn't make it any more appropriate
To you. A stage full of dancing loons begs to differ.

hey mate, Farbrausch could do it, but they would surely fail at not winning first time round. ^-^

what paniq said is totally correct imo.
maybe at first there should be a pseudo-official 2008 goa remix "with influences" of the original song.. a remix.

in consequence if that different groups can build their visual stuff around it.
rob is jarig competition? every year? huh?..

and then the "rob is jarig" friends can get an additional ticket when entering a party.
:D

Don't any of you serious demo makers get disheartened when joke demos outplace you in competitions?
added on the 2008-08-10 22:46:56 by Wade Wade
I think out-placing is rarely a problem, but if you're someone entering your first production and it gets a luke-warm reception and then they play that degenerate crap and a bunch of people get up and start dancing... Well, that's not cool.

Also, I wouldn't consider Rob is Jarig degenerate crap if it hadn't been abused so badly. Its original intentions were genuine and it had its place, but what the people submitting it again and again don't consider is that repetition is rarely funny. I guess they're too busy thinking "LOL!!! THIS IS A JOKE THAT I UNDERSTAND AND AM PLAYING A PART IN!!!" to realise it.
parapete: there are more than enough perfectly valid excuses to disqualify rob is jarig in any decently organised democompo, and nobody has ever complained when the prod actually got disqualified (which has happened several times). the person who enters the demo does not decide to play it on the beamer and does not have enough keys to vote it #1. if you think RIJ is similar to scatporn, evoke and all other parties that allowed it on the beamer are giant scat orgies- either that, or it's all just innocent fun. :)

I "blame" nvidia (nvscene) *trolls*.

Yeah I guess it is all innocent fun, I just find it deeply tedious. I'll leave you Dutchies to it since you seem to have some affection for it. You can be sure that if I entered Shane-tro by Fearmoths into competitions until it won you'd probably stop thinking it was "innocent fun" quickly... :)
Cheer up dude..
Yeah it's easy for you to say that when you have 10 birthdays per year!
