[[Image:Longshot1996.jpg|thumb|Longshot was 1996]] '''Longshot''' is a demo coder, founder and leader of the famous [[Logon System]] demo group. A pseudonym for Serge QuerneQuerné, he was initially based in southern France but later moved to Paris.

Initially going under the pseudonym 'Logon 1' (the name Logon he explained in a scrolltext as "a Belgian idea"), he released a series of single-part demos , each of them showcasing a new technique he had learned - ‒ or, in many cases, discovered. These included raster bars, overscan, and split modes in the earliest productions. The first demo was coded while he was working at [[http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubisoft]Ubi Soft]'s "castle" headquarters. Though some of these demos seem fairly simple in retrospect, at the time, Serge's demo-coding skill was only equalled by perhaps [[Fefesse]] and [[NWC]].

[[Naminu]] would soon become one of the members of the new, expanded [[Logon System]]. The "supergroup"'s first release was the stunning [[The Demo]], where Longshot contributed a part three parts but, perhaps more significantly, oversaw the polished, coherent design that was unlike any CPC megademo previously released.

This The [[Euromeeting Demo]] would turn out to be his last demo release, but a further innovation was the [[B-ASIC]] utility which enabled Plus programmers to use the new features of their machines from BASIC. Longshot went on to the ST and PC in turn, but has recently participated in French CPC forums such as [http://phenixinformatique.free.fr/ Phenix Informatique] once again. His [http://sergio.webwww.9onlinelogonsystem.fr/ homepage] contains screenshots from the Logon era, a brief history, and downloads of his personal disc collection.
