reactions
=============
ooops,here it's time again to
hear what people are thinking abo-
ut splash!it seems that many dudes
do not like the text menu although
we love it!..anyway,let's stop the
crap and go ahead,
the first reaction comes from
a norvagian pal...
>toft/hoaxers:dear splash hq!
my name is toft and i have been in
the scene since 1987.i would like
to react on what i saw in issue 12
called old days.ok,it is a pretty
cool idea-but 1990? in the eighti-
es the 64 scene has started, and
old days should refer to much old-
er days than 1990.that's all nega-
tive i got to say about your mag.
else it's one of the top 10 ruling
mags in 1992.
the menu looks nice, though it
got nothing to do with eachother.
(mag compared graphix) but that is
nice.
that you try to be original s-
tarting new chapters,you'd better
cut out da lame charts.what quali-
fications do those people have th-
at make them reach the charts?
there's something called quali-
ty and you got quantity.it's right
that the first 5-6 are perhaps the
best but it seems like fame o'gro-
ups,or how last issue's charts was
-decides ranx next charts
i would like to spread your mag
as it's bad spread.i saw garfield
but i didn't see splash until the
11th issue...
the rest you know...
...well, first of all many thanks
for your long and constructive re-
action.i hope many people will mo-
ve their asses to put down the sa-
me kind of work!
you are not totally wrong about
the -old days- chapter but when i
(the boss) was editing that chap-
ter,garfield news 1 was the oldest
mag under my hands and it would be
a nice idea to use it as it was da
first root of splash.and second i
am in the scene only since late'89
so i don't know much to give com-
ments about those days.i have not
written the old days chapter for
this issue yet,but i'll try to use
the oldest mag possible and ask to
mr.dj or dr.ice about the things
there.and an offer to you:why dont
you write the next(14th issue)"old
days" chapter? just get some news
and charts from an old mag, making
comments(like the way we do.) just
write the whole thing on a piece
of paper and send any of the edit-
ors...
it's great that all the negati-
ve side was this,thanks for your
nice words(that's the way we enjoy
editing the mag)
well,i really couldn't underst-
and what you ment about the charts
exactly.but if you were mentioning
about the big charts that lasts f-
rom 1 to 30,then i should say that
we do that to let other people ex-
cept for da famous show themselves
too.that's not a bad idea i think!
yep,please spread splash every
time you get it!(i hope an accura-
cy member will contact you after
reading this,addy in wanted part.)
by the way,you didn't miss a lot!
we started splash from the 9th is-
sue so this is just the 5th issue.
>zinia of wrath designs
the mag have a cool outfit,good
gfx,but i think there are some s-
mall text in some chapters.but the
music is cool.write longer text in
the chapters is a tip from me.keep
up all the cool chapters,thats all
from me,
zinia is out!
...wow,it's always great to hear a
positive reaction.thanks mate! the
texts were a bit few in the issues
before the 12th,but that issue had
a lot of them right? in fact some
chapters are really empty as every
topic is taken as a separate chap-
ter in splash.so da length depends
on the potential of the topic(he?)
anyway,keep on enjoying,voting and
supporting!(ehem...)
>franky of padua
now your mag is really nice,but
please try to improve the textdis-
player a little bit too...
...argh,again an anti-text menu'er
writing.well,we really have plans
to improve it you know, the coders
in acy are too busy to work on the
mag at the moment,but it will su-
rely be improved one day(but no e-
xact time promised!)
>woise of maniax
hey, i think your mag is good,
but i don't like the menu!when you
choose the chapter,the arrow some-
times stand between two chapters.
please fix it! stay on doing this
mag and change the menu!
...well,if the thing you don't li-
ke with the menu is only that,then
good news:this bug does not occur
in the coder's machine and if you
want to get rid of that,then what
you all got to do is removing the
cartrige! cool eh? otherwise,i do
think that our menu design and gfx
are at da top and won't be changed
(the design) anytime (gfx will be
changed).anyway,thanks for the re-
action and keep on supporting us!
>enduro/intruders
1)why don't you have a swapper
chart on your vote-sheet?
2)there is a bug when i scroll
the text up and down in the menu!!
the words at the bottom(nearest to
the water) disappers and the words
which were above this line copy it
self on to this line.check that!
3)the intro sometimes crashes
if i press spacebar after a while.
(just not fast enough)
4)except this,the mag is exce-
llent! more and more chapters in
every issue and hot news'n'charts,
even you guys come from a distant
land,turkey!
keep up your awesome work!
...cool reaction again.thanx mate!
1)well,we think that a swapper
chart never seems to be that fair
everybody swaps with different pe-
ople so one votes for his own con-
tact only,no matter if he >really<
is good or not.but who knows,maybe
we will put it someday.
2)as i've told to toft before,
this bug appears because of the
cartridge you use.just remove it.
3)what?such a bug never happen-
ed to us! but anyway,we have a new
intro now...
4)yeah!thanks man!it's such kind
of handclaps that keep us going.ya
are right,it is really harder to
put hot news as the post usually
sucks major dick!but you see,we do
try to make our best... and surely
it's our reader's support that'll
help us to get much better.so ne-
ver give up supporting!
>gordon/trinomic
really cool mag.a new outfit'll
do the thing.else i think the text
is good written.
...it's really cool that you name
splash really cool! but i have to
disappoint you about the new out-
fit.we'll only change the graphics
and improve the text displayer but
no plans for a completly new out-
fit! and the text will get better
with your helps,thanks!
>culu/migs design
nice outfit but slighly hostile
behaviour.otherwise >great< mag!
...hostile behaviour??? oh my god!
we are really trying to stay fri-
endly and objective! if you have
spotted such an hostile behaviour,
than you should know that it must
have been because that the subject
that is been hostile about, should
be taken as so,got it? if we think
that something deserved a hostile
behaviour,than it will be just be-
cause the objectivity takes it to
be.but thanks anyway!
otherwise it's >great< to hear
someone calling us great!
yes,now the boss is tired with
it so now i(falcon) will continue
with answering the reactions.who's
the next guy? let's look.
>pommac/wow:
just one of these average maga-
zines but cool!
...yes,this reaction is short but
i included it in this chapter.hey,
pal you said that it is an average
mag.are you sure with it? please
investigate all our issues and
think again.we put out a really
great amount of work with this ma-
gazine.also we do not fill the
chapter with a feeling swallow.i
don't want to make a self propa-
ganda but i don't think splash is
only an average mag.
>death/hitmen:
yo pals! i think 'splash' is a
really nice mag!i don't understand
that only some guys vote for the
splash!the splash must be higher
in the charts! the text is good!
the charts fair and so on! the o-
utfit is nice,but old! i hope you
changed it a bit again! but all in
all,a very great magazine! it is
very interesting to read!
...wooaaaaww!what a reaction! the-
se reactions give us the power of
editing more issues.thank you guy!
we are pleased that there are some
guys who like the text we write.we
are going up in the charts with a
small speed but we don't mind too
much with it.the main aim is to
present a good-work to all sceners
about the outfit,as you have read
it before we will change the gfx.
and some new effects are here in
this issue too in text-displayer.
please go on supporting us for a
better magazine.
>tmb/digital designs:
you should expend your charts
section and write everybody that
has got a vote or at least the top
50 or 100,else we'll just see the
same names all the time.
...a reaction to our charts.well
man,we also want to publish top 50
but the amount of filled votesheet
is not enough for top 50.but we a-
re glad to see that the amount in-
creases in every issue.but we do
not want to publish all the guys
that got a vote because we don't
think it is fair.a friend of a guy
votes for him and he is in the
charts.as you know votesheets are
not the perfect way for faircharts
and if we publish them just think
the result.ofcourse our top list
will expend by time as we are sure
that we will get more votesheets.
ok,so all the time support us.
>bulldog/spirit:
the last issue of splash was
the first i ever saw and i must
say that what i saw was really
cool.especially the chapter design
is cool and very original! keep on
with that good work!
...many many thanks for your posi-
tive reaction.by the way,hey our
readers never think that we only
publish positive reactions.we ne-
arly give answer to all of them.
hey man! we will always publish
better issues with your helps.do
not forget this.there are some mo-
re reactions who gives power to
our body.here are they.
>elwood/motion:
splash is really an original
and good discmag.keep up the good
work.it's really cool.
>scow/extacy:
splash is a cool mag.the outfit
is the best ever.keep it going!
>mass/????:
very cool mag,getting better e-
very issue.
...yippi! that is the thing that
we wanted.and it is a very nice
feeling to see that the thing you
have done is loved.better issues
is not to far with your help.
but there is something still
makes us unhappy.we still got re-
actions like 'i never saw it befo-
re.' if people doesn't see this
product then what is the aim.we
try to spread it everywhere but it
seems it is not enough.so please
spread this magazine as much as
you can.best wishes!
