Propaganda 09 ch04

             Dear friends,

there is a duo, that means a lot to us.
No, not the Dynamic Duo, but pretty darn
 close. They are true friends of ours,
 hilarious laughs, American and sysops
   of the GENESIS world headquarter.

      We give you life behind the
               scenes of

          CHAMELEON AND GAZER
          CHAMELEON AND GAZER





- DEAR CHAM, WE SEEM TO KNOW VERY LITTLE
  ABOUT YOU AND YOUR DEEDS. PLEASE HAND
  US SOME PERSONAL INFORMATION.


  I'M A 6'2", 22 YEARS OLD, BROWN EYED
NEW YORKER. CURRENTLY ATTENDING COLLEGE,
MAJORING IN COMPUTER SCIENCE AND FOOSE-
BALL (AHAHA). I LOVE RAVES (WITHOUT THE
DRUGS), DRINKING AND FUCKING HOGS!  AND
MOST OF ALL I'M A TELEPHONE JUNKIE.
(Ed.and likes disturbing me during
 akward situations!)








- WE'VE ALL BEEN DOING AKWARD THINGS.
  WHAT'S YOUR SECRET? SHARE IT WITH
  THE REST OF THE SCENE.

  I'VE BEEN HAVING PHONESEX WITH BOD AND
MAJESTY (JOKING!!!)**
                   \/

- WHAT ARE YOUR FUTUREPLANS, SCENEWISE
  AND OUTSIDE?

  WELL I'M STICKING WITH THE 64 TILL THE
THE VERY END! I VIEW THE SCENE AS ONE
BIG FAMILY AND I CAN'T SEE MYSELF LEAV-
ING IT, UNLESS IT LEAVES ME. OUTSIDE OF
THE SCENE I PLAN TO SETTLE MY CAREER.
YOU KNOW, THE 'MONEY THING'.




- HOW DID YOU COME WITH THE HANDLE
  Chameleon?

  WELL, ACTUALLY I CAME UP WITH THE
HANDLE WHEN I DISCOVERED THAT I COULD
DO LORES GFX. AND SINCE MY COLOR SCHEMES
ARE FUCKED UP, THE HANDLE FITS ME FINE.
SO WHY NOT NAME MYSELF AFTER A COLOR
CHANGING LIZARD? AHAHAHA


- IF YOU WERE TO FORM THE PERFECT GROUP,
  WHO WOULD YOU ADD TO THE TEAM AND WHY?

  HMMM... Bod FOR HIS EXPERIENCE IN THE
SCENE. Majesty, NEED A PLAYBOY ON THE
TEAM. Newscopy FOR HIS ORGANIZATIONAL
SKILLS. Morrissey(DBL) FOR HIS ML CODING
HAHAHA.**
       \/

- WHAT WAS THE MEANIST THING YOU EVER
  DID TO ANYONE?

  PROBABLY DELETING A NEWBE USER ON
DIVINE ULTIMATUM. OR KICKING OFF A GROUP
FROM THE BOARD.

- IS THERE A SPECIAL GIRL IN YOUR LIFE?
  IF SO, WHAT IMPACT DOES SHE HAVE ON
  YOU, LETS SAY, COMPUTERWISE?

  YES... AND SHE LIVES IN ENGLAND. HER
NAME IS LUCIA HOLMES. HER VOICE DRIVES
ME CRAZY WHEN SHE SINGS 'LOVE U MORE'.
YES, SHE'S A SINGER IN A TEKNO GROUP.
BUT I HAVE MY EYES ON ANOTHER ENGLISH
BIRD, CARRY HAGAN, ANOTHER FINE ENGLISH
GIRL. COMPUTERWISE SHE HAS NO IMPACT ON
ME.

- FINALLY, WHO DO YOU RESPECT OR DIS-
  LIKE? HAVE THEY AFFECTED YOU? (BOTH
  COMPUTERWISE AND SOCIALWISE). YOUR
  BEST FRIENDS?

  HMMMM HOW CAN YOUR RESPECT ANYONE IN A
CUTTHROAT ENVIRONMENT LIKE THE SCENE. I
CAN'T EVEN TRUST MYSELF (HEHEHE). NOW-
ADAYS IT'S USE OR BE USED. BUT I WOULD
HAVE TO RESPECT DERBYSHIRE RAM/ILS FOR
HIS LONGEVITY IN THE SCENE. JUST SEEING
HIM ON THE BOARDS MAKES YOU WISH YOU
WERE PART OF THE SCENE AS LONG AS HE
HAS.
  DISLIKE ALL THE LITTLE CHILDREN WHO
LIKE TO CRASH 64 BOARDS.
  BEST FRIENDS: Bod, Majesty, Tronic,
Hi-Lite, Burglar, Morrissey, Newscopy,
Murdock, CBA, Gazer, and Akaloid. (CAN'T
FORGET Zledfoot (Barbara) HEHE).






  Well, well. Doesn't seem to be such
    an impressing fellow after all!
                   **
                   \/
   Hopefully, Gazer will be giving us
           more of interest.

             Keep wiggling.

         (Coming interview done
             by Chameleon!)





- Gazer, BEING NEW TO THE SCENE, PLEASE
  TELL US A LITTLE (EMPHASIS ON LITTLE)
  ABOUT YOURSELF.

  WELL, I'M 39, HAVE 3 KIDS AGED 10-17
(AS OLD AS MOST IN THE SCENE)!  HAHA
DERBY RAM'S NOT THE ONLY 'SENIOR' AROUND
TOWN. I FIT THE ARIAN REQUIREMENTS, THAT
MAY BE WHY MAJESTY GETS ALONG WITH ME SO
WELL...
  WAS RAISED MOST OF MY LIFE IN NEW YORK
STATE, BUT I WAS BORN IN ALABAMA (MY DAD
WAS IN THE AIR FORCE), SO I KINDA FEEL
LIKE A REBEL WITHOUT A COUNTRY....
  EVERYBODY WANTS MY PIC, BUT EVEN MY
FAMILY HAS NONE OF ME LESS THAN 14 YEARS
OLD, SO THAT'S A PROBLEM. HAHAHA  ONE OF
THESE DAYS I'LL HAVE TO GET SOME TAKEN.
GUESS I'M JUST NOT VERY PHOTOGENIC...


- HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE RUNNING Divine
  Ultimatum FOR Chameleon?

  IN A WAY I'VE BEEN INVOLVED WITH DU A
LOT LONGER THAN ANYONE REALLY KNOWS. IN
FACT, I WAS THE GUY THAT CHAM USED TO
TEST EVERYTHING OUT WHEN HE WAS FIRST
SETTING IT UP A COUPLE YEARS AGO. NOW I
HAVE THE THING RUNNING AT MY HOUSE! THAT
WAS SOMETHING I WAS A BIT SURPRISED TO
SEE, BUT.... OH WELL...
  I RAN A BOARD BACK AROUND 86 OR SO, A
TIME WHEN ALL THAT WAS AVAILABLE WERE
U/D'S AND SUBS. I EVEN RAN ON HOME-MADE
SOFTWARE AS AABBS V2(?) WAS ABOUT THE
BEST AVAILABLE AT THAT TIME. SO THE IDEA
OF RUNNING A BOARD WAS NOT NEW TO ME. I
ALREADY KNEW WHAT I'D BE GETTING MYSELF
INTO.


-HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THE RECENT SCENE?

  THE 'SCENE' IS ALMOST NONEXISTANT. ALL
THE WAREZ THAT WERE ONCE AVAILABLE HAVE
VIRTUALLY DISAPPEARED. THE CRACKING AND
FIXING GROUPS WERE IN HEAVY COMPETITION
WITH EACH OTHER BACK THEN. NOW, WITH SO
LITTLE AVAILABLE, YOU'D THINK THE WHOLE
THING ABOUT COMPETITION WOULD BE A LOT
WORSE, BUT IT SEEMS TO ME THAT EVERYBODY
IS GETTING ALONG (AND EVEN HELPING OUT)
MEMBERS FROM THESE 'COMPETITIVE' GROUPS.
  THE DEMOS AND MAGS THAT ARE STILL
BEING PRODUCED ARE BETTER THAN EVER AND
TEND TO REALLY REFLECT THE SCENE IN ITS
TRUE FORM. MANY HAVE LEFT OVER THE LAST
COUPLE OF YEARS AND MOVED ON TO THE IBM
OR AMIGA. THOSE THAT REMAIN ARE THE TRUE
64 DIEHARDS (OR THEY'RE JUST TOO BROKE
TO AFFORD ONE OF THE OTHER SYSTEMS)...

- DO YO FEEL YOU MADE ANY LIFETIME
  FRIENDS IN THE SCENE?

  YEAH, I HOPE SO... RUNNING D-U FOR THE
LAST 3 MONTHS I'VE GOTTEN TO KNOW A FEW
OF THE GUYS PRETTY WELL. I CERTAINLY DO
HOPE THAT THE RELATIONSHIPS WOULD REMAIN
LONG AFTER THE 64 HAS VANISHED ENTIRELY.
  I DO WHAT I CAN TO HELP. I HAVE EVEN
SHIPPED EQUIPMENT OVERSEAS CAUSE IT WAS
DIFFICULT TO FIND CERTAIN HARDWARE ITEMS
IN EUROPE OR I COULD BUY IT FOR QUITE A
BIT CHEAPER HERE IN THE U.S. EVEN AFTER
YOU INCLUDE THE PRICE OF SHIPPING. I'D
HOPE THAT WOULD SET UP A GOOD FOUNDATION
FOR A LASTING FRIENDSHIP.
  THEN THERE ARE JUST SOME PEOPLE THAT
YOU NATURALLY HIT IT OFF WITH. THE AGE
DIFFERENCE NEVER ENTERED INTO IT. THAT'S
HOW IT WAS WITH L A STYLE, BOD, OR DEFF.
