that's completely ridiculous! assembly...don't let yourself become this... :( -
Esports/LAN/AI party -
They can always pre-select if there are too many entries in a compo. - Of course, they should have the “AI”perform the preselection.
- Be careful about giving them ideas they might like.
-
They had preselection and they knew it was going overtime. They let it happen anyway - 2026-08-04

It was avoidable, if you would actually let any mature discussion beforehand. And now you complain that someone did it their own way, without your input. - What are you talking about? uncle-x repeatedly presented a perfectly adequate and “mature” argument. But you wouldn’t listen.
- Who plays the victim now?
- Hmm, IDK. You?
- Perhaps believing that Assembly's organizers would pay attention to what we might discuss here is self-deception.
- I warned you few months ago: https://www.pouet.net/topic.php?which=12876&page=15#c599400
- One distinction which should be made is that Assembly organizers and Assembly leadership are two completely different entities
-
Ok. We read it. We heard you - more than once. Can you please stop now? - Assembly organizer do nothing without the say-so from the leadership. I have nothing but love for each and everyone of the orgs that setup the tables, setup the internet, work the infodesk, work the compos, work the security/maintenance/cleaning, and whatever I forgot. Hundreds of people
- T-101: And it must be acknowledged that the organizers have done quite well despite swimming against the current imposed by the leadership.
- Not to mention that all of the above are volynteers, who get paid nothing. Assembly offers sandwiches and food discount vouchers
-
Should beginner prods also be uploaded? -
definitely - they have been: https://files.scene.org/browse/parties/2026/assembly_summer26/beginner-demo/

Around 2020, we were trying to raise funds for our 3D engine. We approached a VC fund, which sought advice from a French startup that had just been acquired by Epic Games. The startup concluded that our engine had “no commercial value,” so the VC backed out. End of story. Thanks. -
It's nice to be left behind so that we are more esoteric community without the normies - @Optimus <3
- You were left out from discussions about the compo shape and rules.
- Optimus is right. And this isn't just true for the demoscene community, but for all art in general.
