Reformation #5 FairLight
Some dictators felt progressive
and lay down in the sun
but his people were agressive
they killed him with a gun
And welcome to another issue of your favorite mag...
As you probably already saw the quality of the mag beginns to
fall, for various reasons. The main point seems to be that I (Black
Priest) got a bit tired of all this editor works, and I guess that´s OK
after I made now 25 issues of mags. (World News and Reform.)
Well, of course I´ll continue my works, and so I guess it´s the
time for some new power for this mag that we can get the old
standart.
This means we´re currently searching for new co-editors.
The "work" is not hard and when you know other co-editors you
know what fun it is.
OK, to get a co-editor you just have to drop a letter to my adress,
or give me, or any other FairLight member an e-mail on Warez
Aquarium. The great thing is that I´ll give everyone a chance so it
doesn´t depend if you´re elite or not. In the end, I´ll deciede which
articles get in the mag and which not. Well, you don´t need a
modem, but it would be great if you have one as the co-operation
would be much faster and better then, you know.
There is also another possibility as a free-lancer. That means if
you don´t want to be a stady co-editor you also can write articles
(if possible in OUR editor) and send it to me through mail or if
you´ve a modem call me on SUNDAY by voice (+43/02852-54060)
and you can transfer your articles through modem to me too.
Just as you like.

European elite news A-M
ACTIVE
>Artlace a hungarian musician joined and is now in 2 groups as
he´s also in LETHARGY.
AMNESIA
>Artix/SCS joined them, what everybody already knows. Or?
CAMELOT
Rumours said that they´ll arange the HERING party!
CHROMANCE
>Cop joined them as second group, so he´s now in Faces and
Chromance.
>Cop is now in a graphician curse, where he is 3 times per week.
(red. Hey Akos, means that, that the scene will get a second Red-
(star? Hehe..)
EPIC
>Sonic started to call out again, after a little break.
>Freshprince/LIGHT joined. So did Stephen/AFL ´70 and cracked
Nobby the Aardvark and Physic Kaos. This were his comeback
as a cracker as he hasn´t cracked anything for a long time.
>Flower renamed to Doom.
>They also got a new modemtrader from Bastards called Vortex.
FAIRLIGHT
>Bacchus is soon done with his education, and a work as a lawyer
is hard to combine with a life as a cracker and groupleader. His
plans are therefore to still be in the group, but hand over the
leadership to someone else! Possible persons would be Surfer
of ACTIVE, Trasher, Tron, Spirou/LIGHT and some swapper
and spreaders.
Don´t think now that Bacchus will quit! He´ll keep going as a
leader and perhaps let others take care of things he does today.
>These days we received half a dozen requests for membership
from all around the world. Most of them are uninteresting. Only
Blackdroid/WRATH DESIGN (GFX) is on trial in FLT.
>Mendrake - This german cracker was a member on trial for
some weeks, which he told all the mags. He promised to send a
lot of hot originals to us, but the only thing he sent was a
cracked version of FistFighter, which he got from Roy of
X-RATED (now MAYHEM). Bacchus sent him a letter
concerning him and also his political views, as he was told from
several sources that Mendrake is a nazi. He has seen no reply,
but he has read that Mendrake is now in another group.
>Duvel - Our old sysop in Holland. We don´t know if he is still in
the army or not, but for now we kick him. If the board will be
back up running and kicking, we might reinstate him on
request!
>HCI & Vodka/both BOOZE DESIGN got members on trial. They
are both very good, well motivated and highly active. Vodka will
now be called VDK as this has a more serious touch, but is still
short for Vodka.
>Also Bappalander joined us as a testmember. (red. Btw, have you
known that Ove was the brain behind the TCC partty in
Goeteborg?)
>Maybe some members got kicked because of lazyness like Aaron
and Grayhawk.
>Now some intern FLT members news:
The Alchemist - Adrian and Bacchus are currently coding a
graphic converter for Amiga pictures to C64 pictures.
Dino - David has coded a special packer for Bacchus which is not
quite finished yet as a his pretty lazy at the moment.
Ogami - He´s painting like hell at the moment! After the ones in
"Visual Orgasm" some now ones appear to our great enjoyment.
Oxidy - He´s working on an ULTRA DESIGN demo with Ogami!
No release date set yet, but it seems like a winner from what he
has leaked out so far. His troubles with his drive trafo should be
fixed now.
Tron - Micke has just finished TronMon 2 and will soon do the
same with some stunning parts for a coming demo
>OK, as you see many things happand these days in FLT I guess
the 100% memberlist should be printed now: (17.9.1993)
Aaron,Black Priest, Bacchus, Dino, Enduro, Gerwin, Ayatollah,
Grayhawk, Harlekin, Ogami, Oxidy, Red Devil, Rowdy, Sledge,
Tron, Watchman, (Bappalander, HCI, Lexi, Spirou, Vodka)

The Reformation FairLight
European elite news G-M
HOAXERS
Rune/HOAXERS/SUNRISE has left Trondheim to study in
Skeirkjer. This will mean that he will be more unactive on C64.
He is slowly going over to the PC, but he´ll stay on the 64 for some
years after all.
ILLUSION
Sauron has moved from Moss to Trondheim to study. He will
start at the NTH, and he will study to become an engineer. It
unsure about the cracking, because he will live on a place where
he can´t use the phone!
>Freestyle did quit because he has been voted out. That happend
because he released some explanation files and tagged them as
ILLUSION warez which they´re not!
LIGHT
>They will soon get into deep trouble. BOOZE DESIGN joined up,
but are not at all pleasent with where they ended up, as they
found up that they joined a STIFF! Mattias af Jocknick (Goblin)
who runs LIGHT has bored quite a few of the members, so some
of them will drop out. Some of the members don´t even have
C64´s anymore. They ones leaving are the active parts of LIGHT!
The Reformation FairLight
European News N-Z
PANDORA
They got a danish section which contains of 5 members.. They´re
Idol/DOM (Pulse editor)
Duke/DOM (Pulse editor)
KBS/NERDS (swap)
Sundancer/SYSTEM (GFX)
Dr.Zivaga (code)
RED SECTOR INC.
Rumours said that Crisp/ACTION is back and joined them!
SILICON ltd.
Decoy Design is back after a one year break, joined SCL and
renamed to Sander. (red. Well, we´re not sure if that is right as I
also heart now that he joined FOCUS!)
They organized a private party at Jesus place.
Scout returned to the scene after a break and released a digi
demo named "Rave the Scene". Also Astray is again back on C64,
but he´s also active on PC, SNES and Amiga.
Bad luck for the Spider who lost his addy list, so re-contact him
if you want to continue swapping.
Tuynn/ACRISE joined as a coder and musician.
Earthshaker dropped a lot of his contacts, and swaps now only
with pure elite. (red. Who is "pure elite" these days?)
So after all this changes to total memberstatus looks like that:
Earthshaker, TPM, Spider, Coolrock, Milly, Ratman, Jesus
Scout, Astray, Nightdog, Tuynn, Sander
SUCCESS
>Hain and Brush/both from ELYSIUM joined as cracker and
supplier.
>Raze is back and rejoined them.
>Atmos/ILLUSION joined as card and original supplier.
>Arrogance is active again!
Yes, after his wintersleep he finally woke up and already did a
first release!
Rumours said that Burglar will make a moviemag. Yeah another
competitor to Frontpage and Widescreen.
TRIAD
Dane, Johan, Tango, 2 nerd / all TWILIGHT joined. => Arise is
now a TRIAD mag.
Btw, Alfatech is in Triad on C64 but in Censor on SNES!
TOPAZ BEERLINE
>Amarok left his 2nd group OXYRON and is now only in TOPAZ.
VISION
>They are back with new power. Members are:
Satan/ex-F4CG/ex-G*P

Mr. Smart/ex-NATO/ex-BONZAI/ex-BRUTAL
Xoss/ex-X-FACTOR
X-Radical/ex-TRC/ex-G*P
Dr. Jones
Dishy/ex-CHROMANCE/ex-DOM/ex-FLT
And they still search for some more member.
>They´ll put up some boards SOON. (Guess they already have 2).
>Rumours said that Dishy has quit, but this is untrue. Fact is that
he is a but out of inspiration because parties, homework, amiga
and all this shit, but he´ll not leave the C64 scene completly.
The Reformation FairLight
Newsflash
Rumours! Ikari should be back
It´s really nothing sure here, also on some boards is confusion
about that. Hope we can get some more details for the next issue.
Guy Shavitt left the C-64 scene in august.
Also another legend died; THE FORCE after 11 years in the scene!
Rune/HOAXERS/SUNRISE has left Trondheim to study in
Skeirkjer. This will mean that he will be more unactive on C64.
He is slowly going over to the PC, but he´ll stay on the 64 for some
years after all.
The Loverboy from the legendary MANOWAR came back to the
C64 scene! He remaind groupless but started calling out again!
All rumours that Shock will be back are wrong, the mag is dead
on C64, but is ruling on SNES!
TOUGH, the winning group in 64´er demo compo, ripped all parts
from several old demos made by CREST, etc... Fuck off!
Some of the old BRUTAL members (TCH, RCS, Scent, Technoir
and Tarasque) formed a new group called INBREAD! They´ll
maybe edit Brutal Recall again!

Mega Charts
Megacharts August ´93!
Some facts:
All types of groups have the change to enter the charst,
not only demo- or crackergroups!
All members in the groups on the charts are at least
registrated in one counted magazine.
I count each point a member or a mag receives in the
selected disc-magz!
Mags rereleased this period were:
A-Head #03
Nitro #12
Network #06
Newspress #10
(As you can see there´s some changes of the selection, but don´t
blame me, blame the editors which haven´t released their mags
under this period like: WOW, Oxyron...)
But the charts gives you a 100% fair view of the 20 strongest
allround groups in the scene at the moment!

Facts about charts
* Out of the charts: * Near the charts:
SPIRIT (728) TRINOMIC (1087)
WOW (941) FACES (1048)
There are only 4 points between the ruler "Legend" and "Oxyron"!
next time probabaly Oxyron will take the #1, because Legend has
lost many points since 3 issues back!
Topaz could have been much higher is Death hadn´t quit, too
bad..
Light is soon dead because only two or three members are left and
they hadn´t done anything for ages!
Fun to see groups like Comic Pirates and Accuracy on the charts,
but the only reason is there mags...
OK, hope you´ve enjoyed yourself with this 12 hours of work by
Enduro of course.

Facts about chart:
* Brutal and Clique are dead. So they can´t keep their pos. till the
year-chart...
* Legend has been the #1 in all issues and won this fight totally
without any struggle, well done, but till next chart, the one
year chart, maybe Oxyron will take the #1 spot, who knows?

Interview with Tricket/Visual Reality
Tricket/VISUAL REALITY tells...
This interview is fucking hot and made in a hurry through
Jesper´s board "DOMINIC". But I guess you´ll enjoy it anyway.
TR = The Reformation
T = Tricket / VISUAL REALITY
TR: Salute Tricket! Like always some short infos about you...
T: My Real name is Jesper. I´m soon 22 Years old. I´m currenly
doing my DUTY in the danish army. I´m happily in love with
my Girlfriend TANJA. I´m the "PR" man for Visual Reality.
I´m running the VR Whq named "DOMINIC".
TR: Well, as we all know you opend a board called "Dominic" some
times ago. In my eyes it´s a quite fine one but now some
rumours said something that the board will get private.
What´s the truth?
T: Well, Its true I had it in mind, But "NO" I´m keep it open for
the public.
TR: Let´s stay by the board problem. In europe many boards
closed while others opend. So which new board will be a
great one in future?
T: I´m Doing everything to keep DOMINIC special for my users,
Maybe thats why my users loves it. But I Really don´t know.
There are alot of good boards around in Europe. But most
boards has the same problem. A lack of active users and action.
I´m glad I don´t have such probelms, YET!
TR: As you use your modem for a long time now. Which board
was in your opinion the absolute best (from the closed
ones!)
T: A system I loved was DREAM PARK. Nowadays I really love
In Living Color!
TR: OK, let give us some closer informations about the future
plans of Visual Reality.
T: We´re are currenly working with DOMINIC, and as soon as we
are done with that, we´ll release some more demos. We will
come back, and show the public, our newest stunning ideas.
with some stunning graphics, and coding.
TR: Do you know some further infos why Dominators died?
T: Sure, As 30% of DOM´s members joined the ARMY, all
our activities dropped to "0". Our plans was to crack like hell for
just 1 month, and then annonce ourself as dead, but we all was too
fucking tired in the weekends because of the army. Most of the
members lost all their interest in the 64, and decided to join the
PC scene instead. Thats what happend. The Dominators has moved
to the PC now, Where they are doing pretty AMAZING. I´ll join
up aswell. I won´t drop the 64, But stay in VR at the 64, And
Keep DOMINIC alive, while I´ll be in DOM at the PC aswell.
TR: Who are the best callers on your board?
T:HARD Question..My Best callers? Guys like: DEFF, Jack Daniels
Peacemaker/Chromance, Crossfire/Epic, Majesty/Talent.
I get approx 20 calls aday all in all.
TR: What´s your opinion to the US boards? What´s the diffrence
and why does most of the elite call these boards?
T: Its a pretty easy question, Its hard to call the European boards
with credit cards, as the card dies faster by calling Europe than
calling the states. Its hard for the phreakers to get good lasting
codes nowadays.

Tricket/VISUAL REALITY tells...
TR: What´s your opinion to mags?
T: HAHA..Plenty of mags, Less good mags. I hardly never read the
mags, but okay..Sometimes I do take myself in reading one or
2 magazines once in a while.
TR: Wanna tell the scene something?
T: Sure, Grab a pen and write down the # for my system, its
where the action happens in Europe.

Well, this month was quite sad. 3 of my friends died in a car
accident, and I had much luck that I´m still alive. More details
follow...
The first accident happend near a disco called "Rustikal".
This disco is really no nobel disco. It´s a meeting for punks,
grufties and some more normal guys. Well, sounds strange but if
you was there you´ll like it. Indeed it´s fun if you´ve drunk some,
because you have much fun there then. The girls are mostly
"looking for a guy for a night" and the music is also my taste.
That shouldn´t mean that I like these punks and grufties but I also
have some against them.
OK, the first car accident happend around 3:30 am. Rainer K. was
already quite drunken and searched for a driver to bring him
home. Unfortunately he failed because at this time all his friends
already moved at home. So he decieded to walk home (alone!).
Well, that was the last time I saw him. Some times later we heard
a loud "booom" and nobody knew what was happend! Some guys
tried to find the reason for this noise (also I). And then we found
it out. Rainer was liying on the street with much blood around
him; a car crossed him. As I saw him there I already thought that
he must be dead as it wasn´t a nice picture. The driver of the car
Nagelmaier N.(21) (also a friend of mine) told me that Rainer was
moving in the middle of the street and he saw him too late. Rainer
was thrown on the wind-shield and later then to the street.
Fuck it was really not easy for me to forget this picture of the
dying Rainer.
Ok, let´s chance to the 2nd accident.
It was also in Rustikal. Rene told me that he and a friend will
drive to the near bordell. That was the last time I saw Rene alive.
On the next day I heard that they had a deadly accident. I don´t
know if the following is true as I heard it from some friends.
The accident should happend like this:
Rene the driver (who has boozed a bit) drove near the middle of
the street due the fog which were at this time. There he crashed
with an other car and in the crash they killed 2 guys who were
also at the street. Rene died. The other 3 guys which were in the
car were seriously wounded and one still lay in coma! The reason
why I say at the beginning that I had luck that I´m still alive is
because Rene asked me if I´ll go with him. Btw, this was the 2nd
time I had big luck! Maybe you remember that Charlie of
VARSITY died in an car-accident. In the car were Charlie,
Andrea and Mr. Alpha. One day before this happend Mr. Alpha
called me and asked me if I´ll go with them!!!!
OK, guess that´s enough for this issue, hope in the next one I can
tell you some more funny thing.

Again troubles with Bigfoot/ex-Paramount
Again troubles with Bigfoot/ex-äPå
Article by Bizarre/TRANCE
Today, August 21st, 9:40 pm, I gotta call some EXCESS pals, just
returning from Venlo! They told me they got an antinote spread
by Bigfoot/ex-Paramount under the TRANCE label, where he
attacks all groups with his bloody nazi-parols...
Red Rock even told me he spreaded cracks under TRANCE label..!
Well, I´m of course very upset, that´s why I write this note....
Believe me: This asshole never has been a TRANCE member, and
will never become one of course...
So ..whenever you see one of his notes or cracks being spread as
TRANCE stuff remember: TRANCE has nothing to do with it,
and be sure, this pig won´t survive this! OK.. here I give you his
phone number. Yeah.. let´s do some phoneterror:

Dying C64?
Dying C64 (again?)
This article is for all of you that consider the C64 as a dying piece
of equipment.
Maybe you´re right, but still this article can be found in
COMMODORE FORMAT September issue!
Lies damned lies and statistics
In a reasent national survey of 205 retail computer outlets the
C64 software market comes up trumps. It´s at number seven in
the best selling games software top ten, if you take it by revenue
or by the quantity of games sold.
Basically, 64 software brings in more money than the Game Boy,
Game Gear or Mega CD software! And more C64 games are sold
than the Game Boy, Game Gear or the Speccy. What´s more we
are catching up on the Atari ST; outselling it already in some
cases.
So if your local retailer tells you that there´s no call for C64
games anymore, don´t believe him. The format is alive and well,
lots of money for the shops that do stock it.
Enjoy the scene and please don´t vote for all "has beens", do a
reality check.

Reformation mag rules man! Keep on doing it...
Black Priest
Nice to hear this from you Balazs, and as you see the show must
go on...
Walker / GENESIS * PROJECT
Hey improve the mag! The texts ain´t good. The news are really
old!
Black Priest
Yes, Jonas this happand in the last issue (#4), because some
easy understandable reasons. Like sommer time, girls, alcohol,...
to say it with one sentence.. "I wasn´t in the mood to fix this issue"
and therefore it got delayed a bit. Anyway if I look around the
mags which got spreaded 1 (!) month later our news would be still
hot! So far to the news.
I don´t think that the texts last time weren´t good! To be honest I
think they were pretty OK! Why not write an article for us to
show the world what in your eyes a real hot article is.
Ha no time? Girls eh the old thing!
Nightshade / SUCCESS
The Reformation is one of the ruling mags at the moment, keep
it up.
Black Priest
Well, Norbert, I guess it doesn´t need so much quality to be under
the top mags these days. Nearly every concurrence quitted like
Brutal Recall, Script,... so in my eyes The Reformation doesn´t
have any concurrence and should be on #1, but I would never
say that as it would sound arrogant. Got it?
