Hello there!
It's me, Weyland, at the keys, providing my thank you speech in written form this year!
Let's get right into it, I want to thank:
Whizzter
for book keeping, setting up the party system, patching the party system, being the infodesk chief and so much more that it’s fair to say he’s the new head orga in training for sure!
Zworp
for hunting down sponsors and even winning drinking games with them and maintaining all the little details about Edison like setting up the merch shop and all the other administrative things for months on end without ever tiring!
Frost
for once again risking his life assembling new trophies that fits everyone's collector’s cabinets and of course co-hosting the prize-giving ceremony!
Fegolhuzz
for doing all the graphics design and art direction for every Edison I can reasonably remember and of course providing the awesome compo jingle which is still playing in my head, and the wristband designs!
FsFreak
for being an all-chill guy providing the official edisonparty.com website as well as heading all the live duels which seems like a much bigger problem than you'd think!
Njursten
for helping out with absolutly anything and everything, taking notes and even talking to unreasonable people for me and generally being a very good boy
Kokorolina
for entertaining my fever dreams of future Edisons and heading all the awesome physical signage and decorations as well as heading the graphics compos and dealing with several demo compos. And also for being the fuzziest of cats!
Ziphoid
for taking care of our radio commenters, providing stream relay services via SceneSat and liasoning an extreme bakery service that is certain to make its mark in history providing multiday fika to Edison participants!
Hakushi for taking on the compo chief hat and leading all our compo crew into great success and then spinning several perfect DJ sets blindfolded like it's nothing!
Jor-el
for heading the music compos, taking vital decisions and providing DJ services whenever needed!
Chucky
for providing Amiga demo compo live hardware services that was utilized twice this year and very tasty beers to the main orgas!
Snackiz
for making sure we got our ethernet separated from our sneakernet and the poorly configured venue wifi AP keelhauled among so many other things!
Marcus
for playing the piano for everyone to vibe along to during graphics compos and other silent segments that’s not intense enough for a DJ - never change Marcus!
Radiantx
for being an awesome human being and open about his thoughts and preferences, I hope we'll see you again soon, Edison wants your tracks in the music compos!
Everyone
who competed with an entry making this the second biggest Edison release set ever (I think, correct me!)!
Everyone
who attended and provided an awesome atmosphere!
Everyone
who sorted their trash and refrained from sticking anything to any part of the venue!
Everyone
who participated remotely and increased the reach of Edison beyond Söder Mälarstrand!

FuZioN
