PHAT0 will be a bit larger, still keeping the cosy and intimate atmosphere. it is supposed to be a meeting of Phantasy and Dual Crew Shining members, but it is also an open party for everybody willing to experience something... different? eh, cliche! just if you like something most people tend to call a 'weird experience', then be there! for us, it is just another sign of fact that there's an essence of life, equal for everybody still being different. tell me where ------------- maybe it'll be stylish. but it'll surely be fun. the parties of the PHAT series boast very carefully selected partyplaces. we don't throw a party where we can, we hold them where we want, be it legal or illegal. this time it's a very simple choice - the party will happen nearby where the main organizer, Raver, is living. the country is Latvia, the city is Liepaja and the area is Karosta. oh? Latvia is one of Baltic states, which was had been occupied by the USSR for half a century, the revolution happened exactly ten years ago which returned our independence leaving traces of the happy days of communism. Karosta was a soviet military town where officers were living, with a port nearby where nuclear submarines were hanging around and with loads of secret bases and bunkers in the forest. the party will happen everywhere, they'll be crazy games right under the blue sky and under the ground in the tunnels too. so lets call it underground! tell me when ------------ eh later. august or september. if you need to know the date as soon as possible, mail us and tell us when it's a good time for you to come and that'll help us calculating the exact date. action ------ aha. PHAT parties have compos too. officially for 8 bit machines though. speccy, c64, atari8, cpc, gbc but stuff on anything else we can get a computer for is welcome. categories: demo, music, gfx and 1kb intro. no rules, you know what you shouldnt do already. just take the previous year, you can send your entries to us and take part without being present at the party. give us your stuff to judge! furthermore, it's a party. we will have a warez kiosk where you'll be able to buy very special stuff or just exchange it for yours. live bands and dead djs playing anything from punk and hardcore to techno and drum'n'bass, maybe even some big-name guys will be there. Yet still, we will keep it small and cosy, don't worry about a crowd of progressive youths. we will also have various interesting and scenish games around the area, having excursions to the city center and beach nearby, various real-time projects going on during the party, like making a movie and perhaps some other stuff. comfort and big bucks --------------------- it's all for free - partying and the sleeping area. food will cost, but it will be delivered at very cheap prices and it'll be good n warm! you'll be surprised by latvian prices anyway. donations are welcome though - be it money or hardware, so we'll have some prizes and if we're lucky enough, it'll cover some party organizing costs too. finally ------- just come, it isn't that far away, it's not that expensive and it's worth checking out new places from time to time. stop moaning how shitty the parties are, just support the good ones! and... the things mentioned above are not 100% guaranteed. there might be changes - something might be cancelled or something added, but be sure, we won't disappoint you by having a boring party! contacts -------- email addresses of the organizers: Raver/Phantasy/Dual Crew Shining - raver@dc-s.com Brain/Phantasy - brain@andrews.lv some more dudes will be involved soon websites: PHAT0 - http://phantasy-hq.de Karosta - http://www.liepaja.lv/karosta ********************************************************************************
