ROOMIE EATS ALL MY FOOD

A STORY: I had a great digital adventure when I first got my Atari 800XL as a kid and received this huge Basic programming manual. There was this text about registries and stuff which was an example of how to get a colourful banana being drawn into the screen. The example had this capital letter text (translated from FINNISH to ENGLISH here): DRAW A BANANA OUT OF DATA MEANING “YELLOW”. and since every code examples in the book were in capital letters I thought this ‘code’ would actually give me a picture of a banana. It didn’t, no matter what I tried so I got frustrated and stopped and started playing Donkey Kong and Ms.Pacman. It was my first programming frustration ever, and it’s a dear and a most valued memory these days. I ALMOST CRIED BACK THEN!!1 ;___; DD’:
That is why I must get to the party to hang out with ppl who know programming so maybe I’ll learn some eventually too so I won’t get frustrated cause I can’t draw a banana with Basic in 8 words I CAN HAS ONLY SO MANY DEER MEMRIS!

The weirdest stuff of all the festival was the competition of the sounds in the small corner pub, which somehow fit huge amount of festival people every night. There were these phones that recorded any sound of duration around 10 seconds and kept on repeating it until the new sound was recorded. We had a team of several people participating in the competitions =) it was super funny, laughing till tears on the strange sounds (can’t really call it music) that were produced =)) all digital. very digital =)

that’s in short about my adventures!
i’d be glad to tell more once i get the VIP invitations for Alternative Party! hopefully =))

Kind regards,

Keep the stories coming!

Frustrated by this (and perhaps because I was 16 and horny) I re-translated the whole game with sexual references everywhere and edited the sprites – especially for the female characters – to include larger boobs and typical DOA Xtreme Beach Volleyball Hack style clothing. The new storyline was the kind of 60 hour adventure everyone and I wanted to be part of.

For my misery, my harddrive crashed and all that hard work was lost in the ether, never to be recovered again – expect the original incomplete Finnish translation.
