Tickets For The World's Biggest Computer Party

vvizard writes "For Norwegian geeks in particular, easter is preferable spent at the worlds biggest computer-party [The Gathering]. That is, for those lucky enough to get tickets at least. Tickets for the scandinavian people where released through Partyticket last night, and got sold out as fast as the system managed (which due to extreme traffic, isn't very fast). However, there are still tickets left. Foreigners, demosceners and professional gamers have their own pool of tickets, which started selling tonight. So if you fit in one of the previous mentioned categories, and would like to experience the biggest computer-party in the world, now is the time to check out www.gathering.org for information, and www.partyticket.net for ticket-booking."

    It sure isn't. Dreamhack did pass TG in largest attending crowd one or two years ago, and now they top each other for each event. So when TG is held this year, it'll likely be the worlds biggest (as last year), until Dreamhack. Then Dreamhack will stay the largest until the next TG (and so and so on)

    Whyis itthat theNorwegians liketo squishwords together?

    I realize that you are only trying to be funny, but it might not be coincidental that norwegians does this.
    That's because that's the way it's done in the Norwegian language. Most expressions of that kind is concatenated to a new word in norwegian. This of course causes some problems using the Word spell checker (which in norwegian is one word ;-P) on norwegian texts.
