news & rumours
--------------
* after jack daniels and 3dk of
genesis released the latest issue
of corruption, they have been
kicked out by omg on account of
disagreements concerning the mag's
contents.
omg wanted to write a lot more than
he actually did, for example the
news section. omg wanted both
main-editors to wait for an
'anti-mamba-intro' which was just
coded by ses. that, and a lot of
other disagreements have lead to
omg's decision to kick both editors
out of genesis.
omg threatened the editors (jack
daniels and 3dk) not to use the new
menu coded by ses, otherwise they
would get a 'a lot of trouble'.
actually omg plans to release this
magazine by himself, just changing
the name. (propaganda (?))
tyger, wildstyle (x-trsi) and an
americano called firefox are gp's
latest members.
the codemonster and the irish
member 'the punisher' (both in
genesis) quit the scene.
* roy of victims got caught by the
german police/post for blue-boxing
in germany. they visited him around
01 am and took all his computer-
equipment. however, he's already
calling out again.
* according to the dominators they
will arrange a dom v2 party some-
when this year, neither place nor
time are certain yet.
* joe cool, sting and peter left
talent in order to form a new
group together with members of
illusion and crest.
enigma consists of richie, sauron,
hero, fist, rocky, deff, frank,pyle
sebio, pudwerx (all in illusion
before), joe cool, sting and peter
(x-talent), magic man (x-crazy),
deejay and weasel (x-crest) and
rygar (an x-ray member long time
ago.)
the enigma headquarters are the
the forum and gee-spot, both being
illusion hq's before.
* shock is a new disc-magazine
produced by skater and mirage of
censor and illusionist.
the papermagazine shock, also
produced by the same guys, will
still be printed in the future
though.
shock is announced to be released
by the 15th of every month,
illusionist's board 'once upon a
time' is the shock hq right now,
actually it was i+t hq too, after
illusionist leaving talent his
board became shock hq only, a new
group to settle down on his board
will be found soon.
* dave, once been swiss member of
talent, is back in that group.
actually, he has never really been
kicked out.
* atc's latest member is the guardian
who has been the fixer for destiny
quite a while ago. tallman is no
atc member anymore, sidearms of
atc announced to resume releasing
his disc-magazine 'elite euphoria'
again, after a break of several
month. actually it is a magazine
in seq-file format and covers
mainly the american scene, at least
it did some months ago.
* the last dragon (x-fbr, rad, htl,
sphinx) re-entered the c64-scene,
the group of his choice is empire.
problem child of empire got billed
by at&t for $700, quit the scene
for some time, but thinks about
coming back again.

f4cg, will be edited by scorpie
since the old staff, solar and
abigail, suffer from a lack of time
* jihad left joy division and re-
joined his former group action.
* nec announced to quit with their
next decent release, reason for
that move is the lack of new games
on the american market: the efforts
to get the new games doesn't
correspond to the result, that is,
only a very few games being re-
leased. (check the release-charts
in the first column for details.)

to arrange a demo-competition;
