[Oldskool] Assembly Summer 2024 tickets

Mon Apr 29 09:13:30 EEST 2024

Adding my self to the list of wanting to bring kids to demoscene-area. One
I'm planning to bring doesn't yet have credits in any demo, but they are
very interested of making something.

These rules could be circumvented by the book quite easily anyway - I could
just organize a private demo competition next weekend and thell my kid to
make a hello triangle, so the rules are a bit nonsensical anyway.
