Hungarian Elma Party 2001 Budapest

There was the 2nd party at my home on 12/Aug/2001. It was 10 hours long.
There was two computers and 10 elmaplayers.


From left to right:
Up: CovBoy, Trabi, Zsófi, Zenith, Szasza
Down: CSabi, MUe, TomCat, Zolee
(MGen shot the photo)

The party started with watching Elma Crime video 2 times, cause some guy hadn't seen it.
And of course there was replay watching too.


CovBoy shows CSabi and Trabi some stolen WR rec.

The most popular type of Elma competition on these parties is the following:
Everybody has to complete the first 8 levels from Warm Up through the Tag. The winner is the fastest, we measure the time by quartz clock.
The cool thing in this is that other players are watching the playing kuski, and wishing him failed! :)


Zenith suxx on Long Haul...


...and that's what MUe likes :)

Believe or not it is not that easy to complete the levs without die, also the winner died at least once on some lev.


2001 Hungarian Elma Party Competition

It was the main competition which consisted of two parts: one practical and one theoretical contest.
The main prize was this poster:


The RB-dedicated A3-sized Pexi-made come-from-Finland Elasto Mania poster. :)


I. PRACTICAL CONTEST

It was a simple battle, we made it on the spot, and we had 10 mins to höyle.
The winners got 30, 28, 26, etc points.
Here is the lev: pppzs.lev
and the recs: pract.zip (not all)


II. THEORETICAL CONTEST

II/1. Qualifying questions

Everybody sat down, took pen and paper and had to answer five questions:
1. How big is elma.exe in bytes?
2. How much percentage is the moposite ready now?
3. How many ppl visited the Hungarian Elma Site according to the counter?
4. Which is the three best visited Elma related channel?
5. How much levels can we play in the registered Elma if we don't download or edit any other level?

The three best kuski was qualified to the second round of the the Theoretical contest.

II/2. Queeze game

The three winners Zolee/KSL CovBoy/GET and CSabi/TEA sat next to each other. They put their finger on a certain key of the keyboard.
WinWord was started, 70 points font set.
I asked a question and the kuskis had to push their chosen key. I could see the order on the monitor, who was the first/second/third exactly.
