Celebrating the IT2006 release

Had the IT2006 release party last night. Slightly belated, presumably to not allow us get distracted from bugfixing, or something.

We went to Grand Casino where we had a slots tournament. One winning line, no freezing the wheels, no changes to bets. For five minutes all you could do is hit the ‘Spin the wheels’ button. Pretty lame. Should’ve played poker.

Dinner was okayish, much less complicated than the last time we were at Mecca. Had some discussions which made me reconsider that maybe, just maybe, there are situations where one should let the engineers design the UI. What a scary thought.
