Maali: Well, fuck it. I was on lunch break at work and trying to absorb as many webpages in 30 minutes as is humanly possibly. It just might be that I wasn't reading too damn carefully.
i suggest a compo where people make up their own coolest compo.

I suggest a compo where people stop inventing stupid compos and concentrate to drink beer at the boozing hills.

1st prize for the ghost compo: more LSD

a compo where people make up the best compo!

I suggest a compo where people invent new compos, and the best idea wins. Anyone interested in entering will be locked in a small room until the end of the party.

Optimus' first idea isn't that bad, you'll need a new assembly language, a compiler and maybe some people at the stage doing it. It would work.

The compo with the compos sounds like our idea of the combined compo at breakpoint, where skyrunner wouuld win with his multichannel over farbrauschs new 64k Intro.
A bit crazy compo idea translated from Abstract 2005 page:

## Beethoven compo: 30 minutes of composing - of course on party place
# song will consist of 10 samples given to you, which you'll be allowed to listen two times each before the compo
# all samples will be tuned and described (eg. snare, bass, hihat, etc.)
# of course we are creating without listening
# author may use ft2, renoise, modplug, it (and dosbox if needed)
# songs can't be longer than 2 minutes
# people willing to participate in the compo are asked to email us (we have limited amount of computers)

a music compo where one can't listen what he is making is a classic.

There was something like that at tUM*04.
'who has the most BASS fart'-compo and 'wrap Truck in clingfilm within 60 seconds'-compo
Best BASS scream.
best blowjob.
sceneboylove staff will act as jury.

this should be a compo that will be held at every party from now on, and it should be regarded as important as the demo compo.

what if that stupid finnish humour actually gets old after a while?

Peeing compo. Whoever pees the furthest wins.

To add extra challenge, make it a "hands-free" compo.

fast 256 byte HTML compo

Good idea. All entries would be disqualified for not being valid html, eliminating any value entrirely.

Porky's Disco is THE place for alternative compos:

Sock puppet duels

- Logical Puzzles
- Critiquing demos
- Game concept (need not be implemented)
- Demo concept

- Short stories
- A general "Idea" compo
- best nickname compo ;)
- Who is the fastest to code a demo that follows a certain storyboard?
- Who is the fastest to draw an image with a certain motif?
- Who is best at listening to some music and then composing a tune sounding more or less exactly alike?
- Draw an ASCII or ANSI image based on a photo
- Draw a hi-res pic looking like some particular ASCII/ANSI image
- 8-colour picture competition
- PC speaker music compo
- Combined music compo: PC speaker + SID playing music simultaneously
- Cutest girlfriend competition

adok, that's amazing! i like the 'cutest girlfriend', 'best self-presentation' (will always be won by naked fins) and 'cosplay'. although i'm not sure what kind of cosplay you mean. People dressed up as characters from demos? (as in, the discoman from fr25 or the shady figure from heaven7 or that ugly alien from that smash designs intro) or something else?

smash designs intro = fairlight intro coded by smash (damn nick/groupname mixup)

Okkie, thanks; I wouldn't restrict it to cosplay from demos, but the ideas you've come up with sound quite intriguing, too :)

heh.. you'd have to walk really fucked up to mimic that alien :)
