mog^TRBL passed away

category: general [glöplog]
This hits so hard.

Meeting him at a demoparty (especially those I visited for the first time) made the whole thing instantly a lot more "familiär" to me. Great to have him around with all the joking, tech talk, and hugs. I admire his talent, dedication, and art styles. Thank you, mog!

What a loss. Big hugs to everyone.

What?!
I am almost in disbelief, he was too young!
Rest in peace Mog, you will be missed, but never forgotten!

I still don't know what to say. I wish I had the courage to talk to you at last Deadline. <3

Why the good ones often pass away that early? He definitely was way too young to die. I'll miss you, mog. Farewell!

Oh shit, horrible news. He was so damn young. Far too young to die, I'd say. We will see each others on the other side, I hope.

Awful news - I always liked talking with m0g but never did it enough. We lost a genuine and wonderful person, that surely will be missed. 2023 has really been a crappy year :(

Hugs to family and friends.

Hello all,
mog's farewell and subsequent urn burial will take place on Monday, July 24, 2023 at 1 pm at Leipzig South Cemetery (Südfriedhof / Meet at the "Trauerhallen" at around 12:45 p.m.).
Afterwards there will be a celebration of his life in the form of an informal picnic in the Friedenspark. Please bring your own food / drinks, and potentially something to sit on for the picnic.
If you have one, please bring a printed photo of your favourite moment with Mike or of Mike. If you would like to bring flower arrangements, please bring a maximum of one (a single one) of your favourite flowers, as there will not be much room at the grave site. All individual flowers brought will be given together as a bouquet to the grave.
Anyone who would like to to say goodbye is welcome.

To Mike
As you know how to deal with a French conversation, using "Oui oui" and "Non non" randomly, here is a special trick (aka "botte secrete" in French) :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_nGGKQHJu4

the expression you need to learn is "C'est pas faux", meaning "...True", in a totally non-compromising way. It generally serves as a filler in a conversation, when you don't really want to participate but have to say something...

so my advice for the next party in France is to learn this and toss it in ANY conversation :D


During an Outline, in 2016, Mog demonstrated a real ability to fake French fluency.
A few days later I sent him this trick (it works with any French person, trust me).

Mike was such a nice human being :'(

Donated again. If you don't know what to do with your Evoke prize money: you can put it to good use by helping mog's wife.

I'm not having a lot of luck, clicking the button results in a "Something went wrong" error :( Maybe Paypal is being picky that I'm trying to use a Hungarian account in Germany.

I used the PayPal app to open the link and everything worked fine. If that doesn't work for you (or isn't an option): I just send you Stephanie's PayPal addy on Slack.

Thank you to all who donated. ❤️

I'm thinking all the time what I want or should write here and who I want/should/need to say thank you.... please be merciful with me, I'll just blurt it out now...

First of all, I want to say thank you to everyone who has contributed or will contribute in this thread. I provided the link to mog's wife and she told me that it is very comforting for her to be able to read so many people's good memories and little stories of mog.

Also, thanks to her best friend for setting up the fundraiser. Thanks to gaspode and moqui for pushing the fundraiser. I think that has given it a significant boost.

Thank you so much to everyone who donated. Some of you actually donated your Evoke prize money, it really makes me speechless with emotion.

I'm very grateful to be part of this community called 'demoscene'. ❤️

OhLi mentioned during the pricegiving that she wanted to donate her pricemoney. I think that gave some other people similar ideas. Big props.

All credits to OhLi: mentioning her donation and the fundraiser during the prize giving definitely had the biggest impact.
