Talk:Farbrausch
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The releases section is too large for the article. I'd suggest doing away with the table, including screenshots for only one or two important releases, and listing general releases line by line. --Vossanova 20:58, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
- I kinda agree, originally it was just a list, then KB added screenshots and then I changed it to a gallery... Then again we would need better quality shots. // Gargaj 21:02, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] History
I think the article needs a biographical section.
- Formation. (Farbrausch was founded in 1999 by Ronny "rp" Pries, Tammo "kb" Hinrichs and Felix "yoda" Bohmann, because in their opinion their previous groups (Smash Designs and Teklords) failed to offer a creative environment for their work.)
- The Elitegroup-connection. (Some members of Farbrausch were constantly accused of being members of controversial demogroup Elitegroup, which won The Party 1999 with their demo Kasparov. Some members admit this, some deny, some tongue-in-cheekily alternate between the two.)
- The Ambience votefaking. (fr-02 won the Ambience demo competition even though their demo failed to run on the compo machine and was never shown. Members of FR simply found a stack of unused votesheets at the partyplace and used them to vote on their own demo.)
- Major releases:
- .the .product production details
- .poemtoahorse
- Candytron
- The.Popular.Demo
- "Quirks" such as numbering of the releases or the .dot.design.
- Branching to .theprodukkt
Would be nice if someone could agglomerate all this into a nice big article. (kb? ;)) //Gargaj 20:53, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
- Looks good, go with it! :) Seriously though, that's about 90% of what you need for the article. We can just change the bullet points to paragraphs, and expand them whenever we feel up to it. But for now this is enough to get started. --Vossanova 15:42, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
- I gave it a try but i just can't seem to make an enjoyable text out of it. :( // Gargaj 14:03, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
- It's on my to-do list. --Vossanova 20:40, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
- So? :) // Gargaj 19:00, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Well, I have been busy lately with work and MindCandy.. I did manage to redo the release list (looks like Fairlight's) and add a few notes. --Vossanova o< 14:35, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Quote from the article:
The.Popular.Demo is by far the most highly favored demo production on the comprehensive demoscene index, Pouet.
How do you measure how highly favored a demo is? fr041: debris now has more cdcs, and a higher percentage of positive votes, as well as more votes overall. 121.72.240.85 05:34, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] debris.
So how about an article for Debris? I think it might be worth it... // Gargaj 23:07, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
