Propaganda 18 ch03

+------------+ |ALPHA FLIGHT| .. |ALPHA FLIGHT| -- +------------+ ________________________________________ Alpha flight have had their shares of hazzling with the public. The media and scenepress have seen to it, that the famous flight had to fight of the rumours of an awaited decline. With precious members lacking interest, as stated in PROPAGANDA #17, the group has successfully taken on the task of dementing the fact we do not want to see; ALPHA FLIGHT have already seen the best of days. Today, I dare saying there are some more to come. ________________________________________ RECRUITING ON THE FRONT RECRUITING ON THE FRONT _______________________ With important members lacking interest, the leading core of the flight recruited talent througout the scene. ZAPOTEK and SHUZE, both fairly known faces were put into work instantly, and made a decent appearance in the public spotlight. Many people today focus on the Flight with great curiosity of what might happen in the future. CURLIN, RACOON and PEACEMAKER have all been spotted recently, though stating the mere fact that neither the flight or the scene attracts any further. ________________________________________ ALPHA FLIGHT MEMBER IN A FUZZ ALPHA FLIGHT MEMBER IN A FUZZ _____________________________ REAM, who quite successfully took on the delicate task of providing his efforts for the flight, has been in- volved in a handful of akward situations with people accusing him for ripping and recracking. Unverified information from the inner core speak of REAM being dismissed from all current duties in the group, while nasty tongues througout the field speak of REAM in fact being ordered from a higher level in ALPHA FLIGHT, to perform these utterly low deeds. ________________________________________ ALPHA FLIGHT MEMBERS +----------------------------+ | MARC, MAX, IGNORANCE, | | AGRESSOR, FACE, HONESTY, | | ARNE, MURPHY, REAM, TAM, | |STASH, STYX, LEEWAY, POL POT| | THE SECRET MAN, SKINHEAD, | | XENOX, SKIDROW, MX, | | DISTASTER, ZAPOTEK | +----------------------------+ +------------------------------------+ | OFFICIAL HEADQUARTER | | HOLIDAY INN CAMBODIA | | HOLIDAY INN CAMBODIA | | XXXXXXXXXXXX | +------------------------------------+ +----------+ |AVANTGARDE| .. |AVANTGARDE| \/ +----------+ ________________________________________ AVANTGARDE still holds a firm grip around the market. Still, with DEFF'S departure to Spain for 2 weeks, there may be a slight setback in activity. Summertime, this is normal, and some- thing that all boardgroups go through during the hotter seasons. Still, things have not been slow at the german campus. Reinforcements, additions and returns have marked a spark of activity over the past few weeks. NO TRUTH BEHIND THE RUMOURS NO TRUTH BEHIND THE RUMOURS ____________________________ It is remarkable, that rumours of PUDWERX being the new talent SUICIDE have appeared throughout the scene. Of course, there is no truth behind the rumours, and DEFF tells PROPAGANDA, what may have triggered the words to spread. +------------------------------------+ |"..Somebody was saying on Dreampark | | that nobody can be this good in | | fixing, simply stating this guy | |SUICIDE had to be PUDWERX. I simply | | said "I know." and put a smiley | | under my message. From there, | | it went by the speed of light.." | +------------------------------------+ THE DYNAMIC DUO OF TODAY THE DYNAMIC DUO OF TODAY ________________________ SUICIDE is very much alive, and is actually living at JACK ALIEN'S house, which naturally speaks of the success that so easily can be arranged. JACK ALIEN has kept up the flag of AVANTGARDE for a long time, and we have for long been totally startled by his efforts. With SUICIDE in the same house, they can work on the releases simultaneously, cutting down time and effort on both cracking and fixing. "..This comes out very fortunate in terms of speed and and coordination..", says DEFF con- findently to PROPAGANDA. CORRAMBA STILL NOT SET FOR RELEASE CORRAMBA STILL NOT SET FOR RELEASE __________________________________ What has to be considered as one of the most awaited magazines through all time still has not seen light of day. There is a public interest inside AVANTGARDE to release the magazine, while leading DEFF is slightly sceptic about taking on the project. However, the first acutal outfit has been created, an outfit that did not appeal DEFF, thus seeing to it a 2nd one is under devel- opment already. By fall 1995, the very first issue should be available on a monthly basis. INTRUDER, has shown great interest, in positioning himself as maineditor. A SIGN OF LIFE A SIGN OF LIFE ______________ Long gone people have been spotted in the public spotlight once again. JACK DANIELS, who has spent a great deal of time studying and expanding his travel agency came into the open declaring his interest once again. WEASEL, who has not really made a lot noise since THE FORUM was up did the same. Rumour had it JACK DANIELS has shown interest in the pro- duction of the CORRAMBA magazine, but stating to PROPAGANDA, he claims not having too much time, to involve him- self on an editorial level. WEASEL can be seen cracking ocassionally. ________________________________________ AVANTGARDE MEMBERS +----------------------------+ | DEFF, DECILION, ELIMINATOR | | FREESTYLE, HOK, INTRUDER, | | DERBYSHIRE RAM, JACK ALIEN | |IRONCAT, JACK DANIELS, PETER| | SKYWOLF, SUICIDE, TRICOM, | | THORN, NEVIS, CHAMELEON. | +----------------------------+ +------------------------------------+ | OFFICIAL HEADQUARTER | | DREAMPARK | | DREAMPARK | | XXXXXXXXXXXX | +------------------------------------+ +-----------------------------+ |FANTASTIC FOUR CRACKING GROUP| .. |FANTASTIC FOUR CRACKING GROUP| \/ +-----------------------------+ ________________________________________ Even though the strong group experienced what one may refer to as a crisis, the fantastic four came right back on track again. The loss of SCOPE will always be evident, but the group has come to a point in growth, where it is important to continue from where one left off. Some really strong efforts have been performed recently, and F4CG showed they had some really startling aces up their sleve. ________________________________________ FAKECALLER ON DREAMPARK FAKECALLER ON DREAMPARK _______________________ People calling under fakehandles is fairly rare these days, but the security net weakened at one spot, allowing some- body to log on to DREAMPARK as NEOTEC of F4CG. DREAMPARK being the headoffice of F4CG, lets all members access the private subs and drives, as with NEOTEC. Shortly after, ALPHA FLIGHT release the game LEPPARD from CP VERLAG, coded by SNEAPER of F4CG. It was at this point obvious that the task was performed by SKINHEAD/ALPHALIGHT, and from there the battle was on. The same task was performed by SKINHEAD (then GENESIS) on TUNNEL OF WARES against F4CG a few years back. HAPPY ENDING IN THE BATTLE HAPPY ENDING IN THE BATTLE __________________________ Still, stories do have happy endings from time to time, meaning F4CG managed to put out a complete version, where ALPHA FLIGHT failed to bring out a decent NTSC-fix. Today, relations with ALPHA FLIGHT are slighty frozen, though the leading core of the flight always have been considered as very good friends with F4CG. A SECOND TRIBUTE ANNOUNCED A SECOND TRIBUTE ANNOUNCED __________________________ Though nothing has been spread or distributed, F4CG announced their involvment in a second TRIBUTE, taking place in 1996. The first TRIBUTE was received with mixed emotions. Based on the effort put behind, it may be regarded as quite a setback, but on the other hand, it was the biggest 64-party of the 9O's, which is something to be sincerly proud of. No date has been set for the second TRIBUTE, but much speaks for Easter 1996. Still, TRC*SCS have mentioned X'96 will appear, mean- ing there will be negotiations with all counterparts. BRING THE NOISE BRING THE NOISE _______________ Many members have made a lot of noise the past few weeks. Italian badboy PLAYBOY has picked up efforts on an intense level with his highly respected cracks, and old brother KING was spotted taking interest in the action again. ARISTO, Polish talent and coder was reinforced on MAJA'S approval. ARISTO'S efforts can be seen in the not too far distant, and may also be responsible for a possible change in the outfit of your favorite magazine. PLAYBOY boosted things further announc- ing the F4CG-FTP-SITE on Internet at +--------------------------+ |BBS.CC.UNIUD.IT, /PUB/C64.| +--------------------------+ F4CG MEMBERS +-----------------------------+ | SOLAR, CYBERSURFER, | | NEWSCOPY, MOTLEY, WALKER | |ANTITRACK, SNEAPER, MR.ALPHA,| | DRAZ, HAIN, MAJA, MORRIS, | | PLAYBOY, THERION, DEVIL, | | DECODER, GOZ, TOTAL CHAOS, | | FEN1, KING, BITMAN, CYBORG,| | DEATHLOK, CEREBUS, | | NEOTEC, IDOL. | +-----------------------------+ +------------------------------------+ | OFFICIAL HEADQUARTER | | DREAMPARK | | DREAMPARK | | XXXXXXXXXXXX | +------------------------------------+ +--------------------+ |ONSLAUGHT HARDCORE| .. |ONSLAUGHT + HARDCORE| -- +--------------------+ ________________________________________ The most recent cooperation has been reason for chatting lately. While many top-groups still regard both teams being on a fairly naive level, one has in fact succeeded pretty well in establishing a concept to the wide public. Today both ONSLAUGHT and HARDCORE have won a great deal of credit for their efforts, even though most of the work is taking place under the ONSLAUGHTlabel. ________________________________________ ONSLAUGHT DECREASING STAFF ONSLAUGHT DECREASING STAFF __________________________ What we have seen since the dawn of both groups, is an incredible level of recruits being signed up for various tasks. At one point, the cooperation were passing the record set by RED SECTOR some 2 years back. With far too many members, a group does not only face organizational difficulties, but also a weak appearance in the public eye. It may have become clear to at least ONSLAUGHT, having declared re- cently that one intended to let quite a bunch go. JAZZCAT MARRIED JAZZCAT MARRIED _______________ Hot of the press, it has come to our knowledge, that unlike stated elsewhere JAZZCAT never went to the USA. What has come clear out of the mist, however, is a spectacular affair between JAZZCAT, and an American woman, boasting 3OO pounds. According to our sources, JAZZ- CAT was thrown out of his apartment, from where the American woman came to the rescue. Shortly after, JAZZCAT married the same woman, obtaining a greencard and free access to the USA. As of today, the couple still live in Australia and will for some time come. HOOKING UP FOR THE LATEST FASHION HOOKING UP FOR THE LATEST FASHION _________________________________ Over the past months, it has become a fashion setting up demosections in the various crackinggroups. F4CG were the first ones out to announce a section as well as publishing an effort, but other groups have been quick to follow. ONSLAUGHT have announced their section up and running, and it may not be long until we actually see a demo from the crew. MOTIV8 are said to be working on the same concept as well as AVANTGARDE, though the latter has neither denied or confirmed the issue. ________________________________________ ONSLAUGHT+HARDCORE MEMBERS +----------------------------------+ | JAZZCAT, VENGEANCE, SHADES, | |SMD, MORBID, BIZARRE, HEAVY HEAD, | | CHRYSAGON, DODGER, KBS,DEEKAY, | | MORRISEY, CHOITARE, MINISTRY, | | SPHERE, STAKE, LA STYLE, GRIZE, | | THE TWINS, DOOM AND WITTY | | RAMIREZ, BWYZE, RAGE, HUMAN, | | ZORE, RAP, BLOCKBUSTER, | | VOLUNTEER, COMMUNIST | +----------------------------------+ +------------------------------------+ | OFFICIAL HEADQUARTER | | DOWN BY LAW | | DOWN BY LAW | | XXXXXXXXXXXX | +------------------------------------+ +----------------------------+ |THE RULING COMPANY SUCCESS| .. |THE RULING COMPANY + SUCCESS| -- +----------------------------+ ________________________________________ After the success of X'95, the Dutch fame rested slightly. This is not to regard as a stable situation, but a temporary shot of summer, dazing of even the best of people into a hazy, neat vacation. Not all is silence at the Dutch campus, however. And the rumours have rained about the organization being replaced by newer breed. We dig in, and find out what is true. ________________________________________ A NEW LEADER A NEW LEADER ____________ It was even discussed wildly at X'95, that the reinforcments made on the younger level, was done to cover a possible lack that might appear in the not too far distant. Recently, it has been said SPLATTERHEAD was to take charge of the fleet, even though CBA has denied this to PROPAGANDA on various spots. The core of the cooperation are not intending to leave the 64 by, as said elsewhere, and will continue to run on the most intense of levels. ACTION JACKSON, is sadly enough, to regard as gone, something that none of the Dutch people really enjoy. Not even showing up to their own party in April, made CBA realize that his best of days were over, and even though an everlasting piece of rock in the TRC- creation, activities have ceased for good. THE DUNGEON BACK ONLINE THE DUNGEON BACK ONLINE _______________________ THE DUNGEON has been going a very difficult phase, being formatted and crashing instantly. However, today the board is back up, on a normal basis, hopefully untouched by vicious hatred. Still, CBA was spotted claiming the boardscene is dead, and the future is on Internet. We do NOT agree. The summertime has slowed down the pace slightly, even though just for quite a short period of time. +-------------------------------------+ | "...I don't feel like cracking or | |fixing at all during my vacation..." | +-------------------------------------+ says CBA to PROPAGANDA when we spot him at Internet in late July. Rest assured, friends. Looking at the games shown at X'95, we know TRC*SCS still have a lot to give, and expect seeing a full comeback by August, as the glorious summerdays are over. With them, digital bonanza strikes again. ________________________________________ SUCCESS+THE RULING COMPANY MEMBERS +------------------------------------+ | ACTION JACKSON, BURGLAR, CAVRON, | | COOLHAND, CBA, CREDO, DANNIE, | |DEFBEAT, JITY, JRC, LORD CRUCIFIER,| | MICRON, MOREN, MISTRI, NIGHTSHADE, | | REPLAY, SAILOR, SKARABEE, SLIVERY, | | SPECTATOR, SPLATTERHEAD, | | TITANIC, TRAX | +------------------------------------+ +------------------------------------+ | OFFICIAL HEADQUARTER | | THE DUNGEON | | THE DUNGEON | | XXXXXXXXXXXX | +------------------------------------+
