welcome to this message about cracking
games and stuff
a lot of you people think that they are
pretty good crackers. they get their
'originals' from their friends and put
1 or 2 trainers into the game and send
it to to their pals.
but your naive behavior destroys the
scene, because your so-called 'originals
are no originals.
i hate it when someone gets a frozen
original from someone and it is even
'game on' and he writes in his groups
intro that he cracked that game!
listen, you nerds!
adding a simple trainer and running
it through some cruncher is and never
was the work of cracking.
cracking is removing a copy protection.
if there is no copy protection there is
nothing to crack!! simple, eh?!
there's a copy protection if you cannot
copy the program with a simple copy prg
or by hand else there is none!
so don't tell me that you cracked the
'originals' you got from your swap
partners!
mostly these so-called 'originals' lack
extras like loading pictures or include
a lot of crap in the memory, so the
versions get unnecessarily long and in-
complete.
according to a group called excess it
even happened that some jerk simply
froze group-released games and spread it
as 'originals' to their swap partners!
you shouldn't be surprised then when you
are accused of being a re-cracker one
day when you always put out those fucken
fake cracks!!!
- change what you cannot accept -
my opinion is to follow
the upcoming simple rules
just put out cracks from real originals
because...
- the amount of versions of one single
game will decrease. who needs twenty
cracks from one magic disk shitgame
when there is already a jewel version
by some group (e.g.laser.,hehehehe!)
- put out a version of a game if you
can do a better one than those you
already know. ain't that a challenge?
so you won't waste your time on things
which the scene doesn't need!
- when you just put out cracks from real
originals you'll learn to crack for
real. there's a lot to discover in
the world of copy protections, esp-
ecially from past games.
- the more people need real originals
the more real originals will be sold
-> the software companies earn more
money with 64 software and will cont-
inue to produce software for our small
commie.
- don't concentrate too much on the
actual scene, have always an eye on
the past of the 64 because his glory
times are gone, but there is a lot
of interesting software around which
got released in the 80's.
i hear you crying:
'but if we shouldn't use the fake
originals from our swap comrades anymore
what else should we release?'
if your group really depends on this i
gotta say that your group is not good
enough to survive. why don't you spend
your time on something productive on our
old machine, coding games (the 64 is
sold in eastern part of europe like
hell), you can still earn some money
with it. or code a demo or don't spend
too much time on your computer.
this was always a small hobby for me and
i'm always surprised when certain people
put all their life effort in gaining
a good reputation in a computer scene.
get real! a computer is not truly
important!!!
if you like to add something to this
i kindly await your letter...

your name will be mentioned in the mag,
where it's used. furthermore i will (if
there's space on the disk) spread the
used tunes with every issue!
finally i will pay even more respect by
putting out a compilation of the tunes
from time to time.
the name of the compilations will be :
T U N E H I G H
and if everything went ok, it should be
on the flipside of this disk!

hello dudes n dudettes out there!
welcome to the official note of the
WORLDFIRST music-mag! that there are no
missunderstandings, this mag is not
about real music! this mag is only
about music that is done on the c64! i
mean, music like this tune, you can
listen at the moment! but let me
explain you the main idea of the mag.
oh, the mag is called TOP 40 TUNES or
shortly said, T40T. but to realize this
idea, i need everybodies' help! on the
next pages i will introduce you!
i hope that this note reaches nearly
everybody and will be spread like hell!
the system of the mag is very simple. i
suppose, averybody of you know the mtv
european top 20, or? or a local
musiccharts on the radio? this is the
same system. but the difference is,
that i'm not a radio sender or so. i
also don't have all tunes, that exist
on the c64! so i need your help! if you
will take part in influencing the
charts, you only have to vote for YOUR
favourite tune! al what you have to do,
is to send me your tune or to one of
the offical spreaders.
you can be sure, that your disk would
be lost, if you are not one of my
contacts, bocoz i won't take up the
money to send everybody his disk back!
so, i suppose, one of the following
dudes and dudettes is one of your
contacts. if one of the following
persons is one of your contax, send him
or her your tune with following dates:
name of tune (if the tune has one)
name of musician
name of player
tune should be located by $1000!
this persons are collection the tunes,
and send it to me! i count how many
tunes i got, and how many tunes are
present more than one time! if you vote
the next time for the same tune, you
only have to send me your vote again!
or to the spreader or you can call me!
but you have only one vote per issue!
ok, the official spreaders are:
