From C64 Diskmag Wiki
--------------------------------------- *Introducing* --------------------------------------- Welcome to the introducing chapter for the third time! This time I will introduce you to a reformed goup, called HITMEN. Hopefully you will enjoy the little trip thru the history of HITMEN. /=============\ | * HITMEN * | \=============/ of H First let me tell you something about the members and their function.. Curlin One of the leaders in HITMEN. He is doing crackings, intros aswell as much (not to say most) of the organi- zation! Mostly he uses his codes to do voicecalls besides calling boards and being present at nearly every party. (ger) Dr.Doom A quite new member of HITMEN. Joined as a Megaswapper and original supplier. With 15 years he is the youngest member of the group. (hol) Groepaz He restarted his work on the C64 with the rebuilding of HITMEN. He is doing intros and also the mainpart for a demo HITMEN is releasing at the X96. Furthermore for he is modding a C*base version for the MYSTICAL PARADISE and he showed, that he is a qualified coder in different ways. (ger) Hi-Lite One of the first members in the 'new' group. Doing GFX mainly he is not often seen on the boards. He did the 2nd place at the party in Emsdetten with one of his GFX. (ger) Jihad The man who gave the posse its name! One of three leaders in HITMEN. He is doing cracks, intros and organization. On several meetings he showed how much beer he could drink } Besides C64 he is coding on PC. (ger) Jinx Long haired..... But doing a big part in the hacking area of the group. Showed his abilities in several cracks for the mail scene. Calling the internet, he is often oftenseen on irc. He also was one of the first guys, joining the rebuilded HITMEN. (ger) Peacemaker The third one in the leading position. Together with Jihad and Curlin, he reformed the HITMEN-gang. Running the EHQ 'Mystical Paradise', doing a few cracks, organizing, coding and (of course) fixing, besides calling the boards, he is one of the most important members of HITMEN. He is the one, setting up thounsands of 1-800 numbers and also tollfree numbers for Sweden and Germany to TMP. Also setting up tollfree numbers for other boards, shows something about his attitude.. (ger) Racoon One of three swappers in the team. Beeing in the scene for quite a long time, makes him knowing a lot of people in the scene. Sometimes he also is calling boards and shows, that he is not just interested in the mail scene. (ger) guys, Raze He mainly is coding intros for the group. Sometimes he was seen on the boards, but at the moment it is a little quite around his person. (ger) Sabotage He is the other one of the 'swapper-team' in HITMEN. Together with Racoon, he managed to cover the mail scene with their sendings. Frequently he was seen on the boards, but regular he is calling his EHQ. (ger) The Ministry After the kicking of Dodger, they do nearly all cracks. Why 'they'? With Jayce & Marcus two swedish crackers build a team that is well known for their weird ideas and behaviour. (swe) Tranziie He joined HITMEN to control the swedish section of the group. Besides his job in HIT, he is writing for the acewell known magazine 'PROPAGANDA'. His slogan is: PAY! And his hobby is: PARTY!... So he is known to the scene. Regulary he is calling out to the boards and is filling the subs with a little quality (?)... } (swe) Tyron A graphician! Not beeing long in the scene it comes that HITMEN is his first group. Mainly he is doing board-gfx besides other styles. Calling out the boards and writing for the DOMINATION magazine are his other jobs. (ger) Vortex Seen on nearly every board. Besides Lawnmower man (who left the group), he is the one doing hacking and phreaking for the group. (ger) Zore He is the newest member of the group. Primary he joined to do a GFX job. In former days he used to do this job for Hardcore.. (ger) tion. After this journey we will have a look at the story of HITMEN. It is well known, that HITMEN was existing in another form, with some different members. JIHAD, PEACE- MAKER, CURLIN and RACOON used to be in the 'old' formation. In former days they concentrated on cracking, while it is said that they nowadays concen- trate on fixing. Do they really just concentrate on fix- ing?? I guess not. Rumors say that they are working on a demo, to be released at the X96 for example. Also they showed (not just on the mail market), that they are able to crack games. Another point is that they can call out, what means that they have capable hackers/ phreakers. Nearly every member does his part to give the group the chance to call out. And even if somebody is 'just' scanning numbers, he is giving those scanned numbers to those people, trying to hack on them. At the moment they are the group calling out most. There were some changes concerning the member- stats in the last few month. First Shok'Ray was kicked, the Hbecause he didn't keep internal stuff for his own. Quite a while after this, Dodger was kicked, caused by his attitude towards the group, meaning his lazyness for a long time. Furthermore Moby was kicked after he showed how inactive a member could be. With his leaving, the polish section of the group died. Lawn- mower Man left the crew, infact that he does not get along with the behaviour of certain groupmates. Arro- gance also got deleted from the memberstatus! And last but not least, Zore joined as another graphician. With THE DUNGEON they got a well known BBS as their WHQ, even if THE DUNGEON was offline for a long period now. With the return of the MYSTICAL PARADISE, Peace- maker managed to have a EHQ for the crew, but not enough. WAQ was added to the list of their boards finally, so that there is a list of well known boards to mention. But back to the roots! Where for example does the name HITMEN come from? A song from the Sisters of Mercy was the source for the name given to the group by Jihad. That also is the reason for the Merciful Release sign they used in several intros. ise', The reason for the rebuilding was the fun they were expecting in and with the group. All in all we will hear from HITMEN, I guess. At least at the next party.. Their Boards: The Dungeon * new-number-soon The Mystical Paradise * XXXXXXXXXXXX (etc.) Warez Aquarium * XXXXXXXXXXXX Internetcontact: XXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX (Peacemaker) XXXXXXXXXXXX (Tyron) XXXXXXXXXXXX (Jihad) XXXXXXXXXXXX (Tranziie) That should be enough about Hitmen for now. Next issue we will have a look at another group. See ya latah.... Faithfully, yer TYRON
