<pre>Spread da word!

For the 20th time this chapter is launched. Yes that
is right. this chapter was presented in issue # 01 and
has been a part every time. - I will not exactly claim
that I invented this chapter. Other forms of it has
most probably been in magazines released before this
one, BUT, I do believe that Skyhigh made it quite po-
pular along the way. Many sceners, and even software
companies, saw the opportunity to get some free ad-
vertisement for their products or to spread their
public notes for a massive range of people.
Recently many sceners has opened their eyes to use
chapters like this to search for lost contacts. Well,
what can I say... This is the perfect way to get you
message spread massively without having to send out
hundreds of envelopes. I'm very happy for the people
who I am able to give a helping hand.

Do you need a helping hand to get your public note
well spread, then I would suggest you to mail it to
me, and I will see to that it is included. The formate
in which you write the message doesn't really matter
I would prefer 40 char wide upscroll or facenoter
formate though. But a piece of paper (readable!!!) will
do the job just as well..

Ok send your contributions to following addy:

In the time some people have used this service quite
a bit. One of them is my very good friend from Holland
Calypso. This time he is enjoying the help once again,
but unfortunately with a rather sad twist. I will let
him do the talking.

The end of an empire! - A legend retires!

After many years in joy and fame the quest ends!
The handle...

CALYPSO/AMNESIA/ALPHAFLIGHT
CALYPSO/AMNESIA/ALPHAFLIGHT

Yes, finally after many years, I've decided to cease
my swapactivities. Eventhough I have pronounced this
for a long time, this will come to you as a shock!

The final drop that floated the bucket, fell this week.
Once again, my main drive fucked up. I tried to get a
new one, and it looked like I succeeded. but, this
drive turned out not to be 100 percent either. This is
enough!

Ofcourse, there are more things that brought me to
this decision. An important thing is that the thrill of
swapping has gone for a long time already. Other
things have gained my interests, such as cracking,
coding and ntsc-fixing. I didnt find fun in swapping
anymore for a long time!

Other reasons, such as moving house and starting a
life with my girfriend are explained plenty of times
before. so I wont go any deeper into that!

Anyhow, I dont wish to get too sentimental about this
all. Afterall, I'm not leaving the scene. I just de-
crease my swapactivities. Ofcourse I will keep swap-
ping with a limited number of friends. A list will follow
later on!

As this is most likely my last public note, I will add
some words to those so-called megaswappers.
Many of you call yourself a megaswapper when you
have about 100 contacts!! Please guys.. Dont offend
the real megaswappers! 100 is just a standart amount.
Also, for those who think they're the best, and reach
the #1 spot, then start to wonder how you got it!!

Many of you spread tons of votesheets, to collect
points! This is wrong!!! A real top-swapper should not
need any sheets to become #1. I personally never had
to spread a single sheet to become the #1. This in
opposite of many many other that have become #1 and
are yet to be #1. This is something to think about!!!

For the mageditors a hint:
If someone spreads sheets for you, then dont give
him the points that are given to him on the sheets you
get from him. This is more fair. If you do this, I wonder
how many people remain that still spread your sheets.
And see.. How right I was about all those poor spread
ers.

Anyhow.. At last I will print a list with people that I
got to know during the past years.
The ones that find their name written in CAPITAL let-
ters, are the ones that I will stay in contact with. To
the rest, I can only say "sorry", and thank you all
for a great swaptime. I cannot send every one a last
disc, mainly due my driveproblems now. I can hardly
make a spreaddisc!!!

Till so far... Quite a few I think.
Please notice, that if you feel that I forgot you.
Then do send again, and give me a good reason to
swap with you.

Ofcourse you can still send me games for our maga-
zine "The Best". I promise that I will return the disc,
whenever I can!!

Ok, then this should be all...

Dont forget about me, I wont do that too. And if you
still wish to support me, Then vote for me in the
crackercharts if you think i deserve it!

My adress again... You'll never know..

CALYPSO/AFL'70/AMNESIA

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

And this is all...Perhaps we will meet again, some day..
Some party,hehe...

Your friend till the end,
THE CALYPSO
THE CALYPSO

--------------------------------------------
Calypso is not the only one with problems at the mo!
Another buddy of mine, Bizarre, is having a struggle
with the post. Read on...
--------------------------------------------

Information about the post by

Bizarre/Onslaught - Nov 26th 1995

Well,as I don't feel like repeating what I am gonna
write now millions of times to each contact,I decided
to write and spread this note that includes all the
things,each of you HAS to know in order to continue
our swaptime...

1)

Last thursday ,I had to visit them ,as they otherwise
would have consulted a state attorney,and this would
not have been funny at all. That session lasted 3
(three) hours..To prevent further damage,I of course
admitted everything (stamp cheat) ,so as far as they
told me,nothing much is gonna happen..

I "just" got to pay them 350 dm .. That's all..

2)

They have observed my sendings since 1993 already...
Maybe some of you remember me having problems with
the post in July 1993..They never knew who I was...
Unfortunately they got me now due to my postbox
that i had opened in February..

3)

I could see an internal paper written by the post,
including the following handles:

Intruder/Avt - Didi/Lxt/Atl - Neotec/F4cg and
Glare/Smash

So it seems they are gonna try to get them.. I don't
know why Neotec was on the list,because I haven't
yet been in touch with him..

4)

I was allowed to take all sendings they kept during
the past 5 months..first I had to open all cheated
sends..Well. They then took copies of each of the
cheated envelopes..For some reason I was allowed to
take the cheated stamps back home..hehehe..Lamers..

5)

SUCK/EQUINOXE you are already busted. as you idiot
cheated very BAD and wrote yer addy on the back of
the envelope.. No personal offence,but you'll be vi-
sited by the post soon, better get rid of all cheat
equipment..

6)

12 of the sends I posted were held..=
incl. RAP/ONSLAUGHT - DIDI/XT - VAGUE LXT -
SCATMAN/CHROMANCE - ALEXSOFT/ DN and others..I 've
already recontacted the other ones..but those above
mention ed will get another send soon...

A total of 64 SENDINGS waited for me.... All will get a
reply sooner or later.... The ones who contacted me
include SCATMAN/CHROMANCE - JAYDEE/CHROMANCE
CYKE/MEGAUNIT and others..just be patient..all of you
will get a reply!

7)

OF COURSE I am going to STOP cheating for the moment,
as it is rather obvious, that I would get into real
trouble if I restarted or cheating..

8)

I want ALL of you to stop cheating as well,at least
when you send to me.. Because I know they opened
some sendings, and there they found stamps I sent
back.So I don't want them to find any suspicious stuff
about me..
Sure you can continue cheating if ya want to ..But I
WON T send back any stamps anymore,so it 's useless...

9)

And guess what? The post has given out orders to
look for SHINING stamps, because thousands of stu-
pid assfucking lame TAKE THAT and KELLY FAMILY fans
started cheating their stamps on letters to fanclubs,
etc.YES, those ASSFUCKERS have caused the problems,
lots of Germans have faced lately..
Better stop cheating, because you all are gonna be
busted sooner or later!

Once again...
For all of you who may want to (re-) contact me,
write to the following adress ...I have used that one
for over 5 months now,and only a couple of sends got
lost...The post doesn't know about that new addy...

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

My name is not Joseph,it is Jose! I just "invented"
that name for fun!

Please put that addy into your mags, because I'm not
gonna write my addy on any votesheet anymore, as
this caused my problems in the first place,when I put
my plk on it ages ago...

BIZARRE / ONSLAUGHT

--------------------------------------------
Finally another scener has lost contact with a heap
of people through time. Maybe you are one of them.
If so then better make a sending right away and get
it mailed. Take it a way SPERMBIRD!
--------------------------------------------
