Project Lightwave // Assembly Demo-Party 2005 http://www.assembly.org Day & Update 1 Hi there! Lets begin the story: In March we decided with our group that we will go into Assembly Demo-Party 2005 event. For a long time I have had a dream to design own 100% custom case and participate with it to Coolest Case competition in Assembly. And today 28.7.2005 the dream had came true! Also the pain of waiting is stopped 'cause this is the day when party will begin at clock 12:00 (+2 GMT). Competitions There is two competitions what I think which will make noice here in Bit-Tech. As the start piece told that one of the competitions is Coolest Case. The second competition is Fastest Case. Both competitions are hold by the Coolputer which sells cooling & modding stuff in Finland and both compos are put in the Sponsored competitions category. There is 7 different compo categories. The categories are: Real Time, Visual Arts, Music, Gaming, Sports, Unofficial & Sponsored. For example Gaming category includes in this year World Cyber Games finnish qualifier in Counter-Strike & Warcraft 3 games. In side of Counter-Strike there is couple of known clans like Astralis, Wings, Marvel & Junk 52. For more information, watch this link: http://www.assembly.org/compos/index_html About the case - Update 1 Okay, okay.. I stopped the speech about Assembly 2005 for a moment.

Actually dont think thats the whole area there.. Theres few other smaller parts for certain groups around the main area. Theres few pics there that are outside the main floor, like the pic that has a 'OLDSKOOL AREA' sign. Wasnt there to see it, but been on Hartwall arena anyways. Oh, found a pic that shows all the PC locations around the arena: http://www.assembly.org/tickets/maps/computer_place_map/en Over 5000 people attend the event during the 4 days its open. So its not your average size LAN-party . PTK
