Skyhigh 21 The charts - part 1
From C64 Diskmag Wiki
Charts - part 1 Welcome, one and all, to the charts for issue 21 of Skyhigh, presented to you by the man with the can, Shuze/Afl. Well, this time 143 sheets were received by me, 118 of which were filled by different people, so only 118 have any effect on the charts themselves. But here is a quick breakdown of where the sheets came from: Pos. Country Name Amount Of Sheets --------------------------------------------- 1. POLAND 58 1. POLAND 58 2. Germany 22 3. Holland 7 4. United Kingdom 6 5. Australia 4 6. Hungary 3 Sweden 3 Turkey 3 9. Denmark 2 Norway 2 10. Belgium 1 Czech Republic 1 Finland 1 France 1 Switzerland 1 Yugoslavia 1 Yup, a lot of sheets have come from good old Poland this time, but that is expected these days I guess. And now lets take a look at who the guys were that actually spreaded all those sheets: Pos. Scener Name Amount Of Sheets --------------------------------------------- 1. SHUZE/ALPHAFLIGHT 22 1. SHUZE/ALPHAFLIGHT 22 2. El Banditos/Ascraeus 17 Sebaloz/Lepsi Developments 17 4. Creb/ex-Dytec 10 5. Rap/Onslaught 8 6. Biz Kid/Camelot 5 Visby/Icon/React 5 8.

Authentic/Acrise+Excess 1 Avalanche/Atlantis 1 Centrax/Beverly Hills 1 Junkie/Palace 1 Kildun/BP/Attic 1 Red Rock/Acrise+Excess 1 Reekol/React 1 Scratch/Megaunit 1 Spermbird/Chromance/Acrise+Excess 1 Splatterhead/SCS+TRC 1 Vague/Acrise+Excess OK, we at Skyhigh would like to thank ALL of those guys, and the one gal, for doing their bit to support us. Your help means a hell of a lot to us, and we hope you will continue to help us out! There were also 16 sheets spreaded with no name of any spreader on them, so, our silent stars, we thank you also! And this issue's award for the worst handwriting goes out to, dah da daaaaahhhhhhhh: STAN/X-RATED STAN/X-RATED For managing to push back the boundaries of writing as we know it, and diving headfirst into a brand new realm of scrawl. Thanks, mate, you made my life hell for about 20 minutes, trying to decipher the sheet! Hehehe..... And lets really kick this into gear with the: DEMO GROUP DEMO GROUP Pos. Last Group Name Points --------------------------------------------- 1. (3) REFLEX 832 1. (3) REFLEX 832 2. (1) Oxyron 802 3. (2) Byterapers 698 4. (4) Taboo 545 5. (5) Agony 541 6. (6) Nipson 216 7.

(*) Asphyxia 26 (*) Smash Designs 26 27. (*) Noice 25 (*) XL.C.US. 25 29. (20) React 23 30. (*) Padua 21 (*) System 21 Well, Reflex get to the top, which is odd considering the recent quality of releases coming from the stables of Oxyron.I have no idea why Censor are so high, and it is good to see the highly respected Polish group, Albion, entering the charts. On a more personal note, it pleases me immensely to see the hardworking UK group, XL.C.US, appearing in the chart for the first time. Camelot actually gained 6th place with 412 points, but are not included this time. Just missing the 30 group cutoff were: TOM - Lepsi - Light - Miracles - Caution - Megastyle CODER CODER Pos. Last Coder Name Points --------------------------------------------- 1. (1) MR SEX/BYTERAPERS 626 1. (1) MR SEX/BYTERAPERS 626 2. (2) MMS/Taboo 551 3. (5) Graham/Oxyron 460 4. (3) Quiss/Reflex 410 5.

(*) Iceball/Motiv8 18 29. (*) D'Arc/Topaz 16 (*) Ed/Wrath Designs 16 (*) Gremlin/Beyond Force 16 (*) Swoffa/Noice 16 Mr Sex holds off the competition by some way. It seems that Graham is still not as recognised as he should be, as otherwise he would be higher. Quiss is out of the race completely, over 200 points behind Mr Sex (that is like saying I got 20 sheets with Mr Sex on number one, and Quiss not voted for at all!) Guru finally gets some recognition, and the very popular "king of plasma", Jer, also gets some good vibes! Stilgar, one of Poland's most popular coders, finally makes a mark on the charts, expect big things from him. Slammer gained 6th place with 320 points, Glasnost took 14th with 84 points, Raz managed 17th with 52 points, and Cruzer brought up the rear of the Camelot ranks with 25th place, and 24 points. Just missing the chart were: ASL - Bacchus - Explorer - KB - Aristo - Kerk MUSICIAN MUSICIAN Pos. Last Musician Name Points --------------------------------------------- 1. (1) PRI/OXYRON/TIA 634 1. (1) PRI/OXYRON/TIA 634 2. (4) PVCF/Reflex 578 3. (3) Shogoon/Taboo 561 4. (2) The Syndrom/Tia/Crest 499 5. (5) Compod/Charged/Funeral Moon 372 6. (9) Moog/Agony 253 7. (6) Fanta/Oxyron/Bass 223 8.

(*) Echo/Comic Pirates 23 The usual top 5, but Moog and Fanta are definitely pushing hard, the only question is if one of the top 5 will move away for them, but it doesn't seem that likely, looking at the points gap. Jeroen Tel starts to fall at last, as does A-Man, maybe for good? Cubehead finally gets noticed by the voters, and so does Praiser, who got a huge amount of votes this time. I am not joking when I say that probably 90% of the sheets had a vote for him on. Huge drops for Cleve/Charged and Decoy/Acrise+Excess, who both lost a massive TWENTY ONE places! Yow! Just missing the cut were: Cane - Froyd - KB - Scortia - Gaston - Morbid - Spike ARTIST ARTIST Pos. Last Artist Name Pois --------------------------------------------- 1. (1) CRUISE/TABOO 831 1. (1) CRUISE/TABOO 831 2. (2) Electric/Extend 499 3. (3) Joe/Wrath Designs 423 4. (4) Creeper/Antic 395 5. (8) Astaroth/Agony/Avantgarde 392 6. (5) Fazee/Taboo 351 7. (7) Carrion/Taboo 294 8. (9) Roder/Agony 230 9. (6) Ogami/Fairlight j198 10. (11) RRR/Oxyron 172 11. (*) Skyle/Agony 116 12. (13) Stone/Taboo 97 13. (*) Jester Kyd/Nipson 83 14. (*) Mike/Byterapers 78 15. (19) Hein Designs 70 16. (10) Cupid/Avantgarde 69 17. (12) Shaman/Taboo 63 18. (*) PVT/Reflex 61 19. (17) Jetan/Agony 60 20. (*) Appacz/??? 56 21. (15) Lord Red/Creators 53 22. (*) Dane/Triad 47 23. (*) Nylu/Samar 42 24. (*) Cseszo/Therapy 39 25. (*) Thorp/Idlers 37 26. (*) Seytan/Arcoss/APS 36 27. (*) Compyx/Focus 31 28. (20) Owen/Agony 28 29. (*) Atte/Extend 27 (*) Draz/F4CG 27 There is obviously no doubt at all in the voter's mind who the ruling artist in the scene is. Electric gets a severe beating at the hands of the spectacular Polish artist, Cruise, and from the looks of things, Astaroth could be soon to follow in Cruise's steps, by some amazing moves. Maybe next time he will kick Creeper out of the top 5? PVT gets a lot of votes after his hard work for Mathematica, and so does the extremely hard working Hungarian, Csezso of Therapy. Also nice to see Draz popping up in there. Biz Kid would have gained place 14 with 81 points, and Rob would have got 23 with 52 points. I'm sure we should change the title of this category from "artists" to "vote for your favourite 10 Taboo or Agony members....." Just missing the charts this time were: Earthquake - Condic - Cronos - Mirage - Ollie - Edge Now load the next charts chapter.
