$F  This compo sux, because SOME special selected people can change the      4$
$F  rules, by blackmailing the organizers, so they were able to use          4$
$F  VooDoo2 in their demo. The original rules were the following:            4$
$F                                                                           4$
$F  - The demo MUST be a Win32 application.                                  4$
$F  - The demo should be a DirectX application.                              4$
$F                                                                           4$
$F  And as far as we know, Glide doesn't use the DirectX API.                4$
$F  The only correct way to use Voodoo2 should be by using Direct3D.         4$
$F  Rule changing sux, but anyway, we are pretty satisfied with this demo.   4$
$F                                                                           4$

$F  ------------------                                                       4$
$F  This demo were placed 2:nd in the demo compo. So, if the VooDoo2 demo    4$
$F  would have been disqualified, or placed in another compo, this demo      4$
$F  should have won. We aren't saying that the winning demo were bad, it's a 4$
$F  really nice and well coded/designed demo, but changing the rules isn't   4$
$F  good. And, Liket^Goto10, we know that you changed the rules a bit the    4$
$F  year for us (Our demo was to big), but we think that changing size is    4$
$F  a bit more "kindly" than letting people use better hardware...           4$
$F  Anyway, no disrespect to Liket, he's the only one working in the Icing   4$
$F  crew, without him, no Icing. :) And as we mentioned before, we're still  4$
$F  pretty satisfied with this demo.                                         4$
$F                                                                           4$
$F  And now the greetings as the SHOULD have looked in the demo, but due to  4$
$F  the lack of time, we hadn't time to include everyone.                    4$
