Underground Conference 5 - uc5.25"

22.07.2001 - uc5.25" invitation demo released ;)

19.07.2001 - giga.de/demoszene.org

As some of you noticed, there has been a short 'report' about uc5.25" and its releases at NBC's tv-show 'giga'. We know this is a pretty bad thing. Please be assured that nobody asked us for permission to do this - we are just as pissed as you are.
Even worse: Now the lamers over at demoszene.org announced a childish 'war' against giga, and also referenced underground conference... Of course we are not affiliated with them at all nor do we support their campaign.
Damnit, why can't all those suckers just leave us alone?
We don't need any of you outsiders commenting on what we do. Get lost.
We aint no food for some crappy commercial media, and we aint no food for some wannabe-sceners stupid wars.

19.07.2001 - Reports, Pictures...

17.07.2001 - The party is over

10.07.2001 - Registration backcheck / open seats

After back-checking all registrations we noticed that our registration system was buggy and also counted deleted/denied applys as valid visitors ... ooooppps ;) Ok, so we now aren't booked out at all anymore *g*. If you are an active scener, this is your chance to grab one of the now open seats... oh well, else there will be more beer for ourselves ;)
IMPORTANT: The following people didn't send back a (valid) reply to our registration check - please do it NOW: seismic, spyda, soney, soor, deepblur, muhmac, sanne, whataduck, kida, dodo, stimpy, delta9, mr.bios, cobalt

08.07.2001 - Hostname registration online now

08.07.2001 - We are nearly booked out

Only a few (~5) seats left... registration will close soon.

03.07.2001 - Attack of the lamers... ;)

Ok, here something funny to read (sorry, it's in german). That strange guy just mailed me asking for invitation the rather arrogant way ('X-Priority: 2 (high)' and stuff). Oh well, read my reply ;)

Hi,

ich fand Dein Review von MS im Web, Du bist doch auch einer der
Organisatoren der SceneParty in Worms. Wie kann man an Eiladungen
kommen?

Tach,

Ich bin der Mainorganizer, ja.

> Wie kann man an Eiladungen

1. Für Eiladungen empfehle ich 1a pr0n-movies
2. Die Underground Conference ist ausschließlich für aktive Demoszener
gedacht. Um an eine Einladung zu kommen, muß man somit in der Demoszene
aktiv sein. Dies ist bei Dir wohl nicht der Fall. Ausnahmeregelungen gibt's
nur für den Pabst, und das auch nur wenn er sich ne rote Pappnase aufsetzt.
3. Deine Homepage ist peinlich
4. Deine völlig-frei-erfunden-Awards sind kindisch
5. Deine Musik ist schlecht
6. Dein Posing-Footer ist lächerlich
7. Ich mag es nicht, wenn mir irgendwelches Gesindel Mails mit X-Priority: 2
(high) schickt.
8. Du bist AOL-User.
9. Geh weg.

Anders gesagt: Ich glaube leider nicht, daß Du dem Anspruch unserer
Veranstaltung gerecht wirst. Wenn Du Dich sehr bemühst und noch viel lernst,
gibt es eines Tages vielleicht auch für Dich eine Einladung.

Ok. Das war gelogen.

Ciao,

28.06.2001 - List of invited groups updated

And again we added quite a few missing groups to our list...

25.06.2001 - Happy Hardcore Competition

25.06.2001 - "tötet alle lamer" trash-flash-game online

25.06.2001 - more than 2/3 of available space booked

We have about 30 seats left. If you want to come to UC5.25" and haven't registered with us yet, please do it now.

08.06.2001 - Updated dycp and added hardcore mode ;)

Yes. The most unrequested feature of all time. enjoy ;)
btw... if you care, you can catch most of the organizers at ircnet #szene.ger

07.06.2001 - UC filebase updated a lot

05.06.2001 - 1/3 of available space booked

Cool... 3 days after site launch, 1/3 of our available space is already booked. As quite a few asked for that, here are a few names of groups on the list (no ranking of course): kolor, farbrausch, smash designs, salva mea, occult, icebird, DualCrewShining, copro, digital overflow, headcrash, black maiden, sternenkinder, metalvotze, acrise, die wissenden. Thanks to those that registered that early.
Until now, we only had to refuse one registration. Looks like the lamers finally understood that there's no chance for them to be party of an UC :) Currently most registrations are from inside germany, let's hope the other countries catch up so that uc5.25" becomes as international as uc4gw was...

05.06.2001 - List of invited groups updated...

*sigh* .. I told you that list is hell outdated, but still I got tons of requests to add groups to the list .. so here we go ;)

03.06.2001 - registration system fixed

Quite a few typos fixed, thanks to those that reported them. Registration system had a bug, it's fixed now too. So: register NOW.

02.06.2001 - Finally this site got launched

Tons of delays due to other work that had to be done first ... yes, this years site is pretty late, I know. But now it's there. Enjoy.
