 -------------------------------------- 
   issue # 17 is delayed. what else is  
 new?  we still work towards releasing  
 THE GUIDE every 3 weeks.               
                                        
   the testing of games for this issue  
 was done by the TRIAD members in       
 sweden and holland and DUTCH/DUAL CREW 
                                        
   if your version can't be found here  
 even if you have sent it to us, it     
 means that you sent a non working copy 
                                        
   your contributions, be it a mailbomb 
 a love letter or some short info, will 
 be greatly appreciated. see chapter 2  
 for our addresses.

 |   to give you information of all   |

 |   of a game.                       |

         THE TRIAD GAMERS GUIDE         
 -------------------------------------- 
 games are added to the GUIDE as soon   
 as you send them to us. they may stay  
 in THE GUIDE for up to four issues     
 giving all a chance to appear.         
                                        
 we want ALL versions in THE GUIDE, but 
 there is no way we can hunt for them.  
 we need YOUR HELP to send them to us.  
                                        
 at least we test them, but mostly we   
 also try to play through them. thus we 
 do NOT accept only written reports.    
                                        
 versions are listed in order of their  
 length. this was decided after voting  
 open to all the readers.               

         THE TRIAD GAMERS GUIDE         
 -------------------------------------- 
                                        
 here are some rules we use.            
                                        
 separate pic, dox or other files are   
 not counted as part of the crack.      
 when pics are left in the game, this   
 is noted for fair comparison.          
                                        
 a separate highscore file is noted as  
 an H in the number-of-files column.    
 the length is included in the blocks.  
                                        
 added fastloader and some sort of      
 file-chain routine is noted.           
                                        
 other extras are noted separately.     

 the symbols used mean .. .   .     .

         THE TRIAD GAMERS GUIDE         
 -------------------------------------- 
 if you think that a crack or even a    
 group is better than the others, it is 
 your OWN business. send your votes to  
 one of the standard mags if you like.  
                                        
 if we find a version to be FAR better  
 we may FLASH it to make you note this. 
                                        
 the understanding of the game and the  
 play value when adding cheat mode,     
 smart actions like a good iffl routine 
 cleanout of crap-code and so on, could 
 make us add this rare FLASH.           
                                        
 however, THE GUIDE does NOT rank the   
 cracks presented.

 the 8 extra "levels" are identical to  
 the one in the game. they are meant to 
 be re-defined, but not needed.

 -------------------------------------- 
                                        
   the REBELS have released a game they 
 call POOL SIM. 92/RBL.                 
                                        
   the startup screen says coded by:    
 e3/rebels. nowhere in the code is an   
 indication that this is actually the   
 game released by mastertronics in 1987 
                                        
   the startup screen is slightly       
 different and music is added to the    
 game.                                  
                                        
   it has been spread as an original.

   i have stated that i can NOT handle

 an occasional sending with a disk full

   i could of course choose NOT to test 
 the games i get, but that will only    
 cause someone to complain about games  
 missing in THE GUIDE and that we are

 i'm just writing to point out that     
 you've made a little mistake in the    
 latest gamers guide.

 "against united europeans nazism"      
                                        
 the correct federation is:             
 "United Europeans Against Nazism"

 as i'm not an active member of the     
 c64 scene any more (since i have other 
 things to attend to) i can't really    
 be working for my own federation!      
                                        
 but i'm always willing to write text   
 against racism, as i feel it must be   
 said, as this europe is really in      
 trouble, if we don't stop the ultra-   
 right movements and parties.           
                                        
 and that's the REAL problem:           
 the political parties, as they can     
 increase their power in parliament.    
 and that's really dangerous!

 hhhmmm, what more to say, just that i

 violence against those motherfuckers   
 is the right thing to do.)

 the neo-nazis should actually all be

   MR.MOUSE! it is a pleasure to learn  
 that people note the TRIAD standpoint  
 on neo nazism and racism.              
                                        
   i can not agree on your comment that 
 the serbs are  the ONLY war criminals. 
 evidence show that they all act as     
 animals at occasions.                  
                                        
   however, i personally think that the 
 serbs have the full responcibility for 
 turning the division of yugoslavia     
 into a war. i also very much feel that 
 UN should treat BELGRAD the same way   
 the serbs treat ZARAJEVO. then maybe   
 it would end!                   JERRY

   now for another topic i was thinking 
 of after having seen your fine GG 15.5 
                                        
   what i am talking about is these     
 UGLY INTROS (your expression!). in     
 chapter 8 of gg 15.5 you wrote that:   
 "some crackers started to use these    
 ugly intros just to cut down on the    
 length of their crax."                 
                                        
   and then you wrote about that        
 "fairly short intro that also looks    
 good" the classic triad intro from     
 mr.z (8 blox).                         

               REACTIONS                
 -------------------------------------- 
   my little problem is that you TRIAD  
 always talk about others using short   
 intros just to have short crax.        
                                        
   but you always use an 8-blocks-intro 
 without music, it's classic but u have 
 to admit that it looks not VERY good.  
 triad is a great demo group, you could 
 do marvellous intros (gg 15.5 !!!),so  
 why don't you show those shitheads how 
 an intro could look ?                  
                                        
   anyway please give me the reason for 
 TRIAD using always the same (short)    
 intro. isn't it for having short crax? 
 i am very interested in this topic.

   the two previous pages were cut from 
 a private note from neotec, but i      
 expect that he doesn't mind me showing 
 it here. the text is complete from the 
 note and only changed in the format to 
 fit THE GUIDE.                         
                                        
   i want to answer in public this way  
 since i got a similar reaction from    
 another person.

   first of all there are two factual   
 points that i have to set straight.    
                                        
 1. we do NOT use the old intro without 
    music all the time. checking up the 
    4 latest disks i found that for 33  
    games we had used the "old" intro   
    16 times and an intro WITH music    
    for 16 more games. in the 33rd case 
    i had used an old german intro that 
    doesn't include music, but still is 
    longer than an intro having music.  
                                        
    people only THINK that we always    
    use an old short traditional intro.

 2. it is NOT true that TRIAD is the    
    one talking about others using      
    short intros.                       
                                        
    when we started THE GUIDE in early  
    1991 it didn't take more than a few 
    issues before people said that the  
    only reason that the TRIAD cracks   
    were short was because we used such 
    a short intro. maybe this was the   
    case at a few occasions, but mostly 
    we just did a better job.           
                                        
    every time we have brought up this  
    subject, we have done it ONLY in    
    self defense.

   when i talk about short and uggly    
 intros i mean an intro with two colors 
 which is no longer than 1-2 blocks. i  
 am sure that others think that a lot   
 more intros are ugly, but that is what 
 I mean.                                
                                        
   when NEOTEC said that our MR.Z intro 
 doesn't look very good, i was truly    
 surpriced. i suppose i should not be,  
 but in this case i am totally blind.   
                                        
   i honestly DO think that the MR.Z    
 intro is extremely cool. i loved it    
 long before i even considered joining  
 TRIAD.

   the first time i got the chance to   
 use this intro it made me happy. not   
 only because i now was part of TRIAD,  
 but also because of the intro editor.  
                                        
   it must be one of the smartest tools 
 ever coded for the 64. most people     
 today don't know that the colors of    
 the logo originally was a way to rank  
 the game. black, gray, green, red,     
 blue and gold, with gold being tops.   
                                        
   when i stop listening to my feelings 
 i realize that a lot of you out there  
 must be tired of this old intro, but   
 i can assure you that I am not.

   NEOTEC points at the intro we use    
 for THE GUIDE and indeed this shows    
 what we can do.                        
                                        
   from the very beginning of TRIAD in  
 1986, the crack intros had the logo    
 built by 40 x 6 chars. i have never    
 asked why and i don't know who decided 
 to keep it this way, but when i joined 
 TRIAD, this was a rule and we have     
 keept it.                              
                                        
   remember that this was many years    
 before THE GUIDE and before people     
 bothered about the length of a crack.  
 when we still today follow that 40x6 >

 tradition, we do it just because it is 
 a tradition. it is like the star in a  
 ring on a MERCEDES or the four rings   
 on an AUDI or the lightning bolt on a  
 ring on a OPEL.                        
                                        
   for years i have pointed out that    
 the 40x6 logo still allows a lot of    
 cool intros to be coded. my favourite  
 example so far is the DUTCH intro made 
 by SEAL and REAM when they were in     
 TRIAD. ALFATECH recently did a new one 
 that is nice.                          
                                        
   another point is the length of an    
 intro. my very personal view is that >

 -------------------------------------- 
 the intro should be no more than an    
 introduction to the game giving the    
 facts about it. i especially hate the  
 kind of intro that forces me to sit    
 and wait for a while. i want a crack   
 intro to be short and to the point!    
                                        
   another important point for me is    
 that a short crack occupies less disk  
 space. i am a collector, so this is    
 important for me.                      
                                        
   my attitude most likely has rubbed   
 off onto the others, but there is no   
 rule in TRIAD that our crack intros    
 MUST be short and without music.

 -------------------------------------- 
   i understand that in a pure cracking 
 group like ILLUSION, a coder/cracker   
 has no other way to use up his coding  
 energy than to make cool intros.       
                                        
   in TRIAD we have other ways to do it 
 so we will stick to our tradition.     
                                        
   i am sure that some people will hate 
 us for it, but i am fully honest when  
 i say that we love our tradition and i 
 love the old MR.Z intro and that THIS  
 is the reason we have used it all the  
 time, and NOT to win any contests in   
 having the shortest cracks.

                TRACK 18          jerry 
 -------------------------------------- 
                                        
                                        
   while testing games for THE GUIDE, i 
 ran into boxing championship cracked   
 by ASSAILANT of HEARTBEAT.             
                                        
   there was a divider in directory i   
 suspected to be a file in the game. i  
 used the fast way to test and thus i   
 file copied the game to another disk   
 leaving out this divider.              
                                        
   then the game didn't work, but as a  
 pure reflex i filecopied that divider  
 to the disk and tried again and lo and 
 behold, it still didn't work!          

                TRACK 18          jerry 
 -------------------------------------- 
   i loaded my trusty old DISK EDITOR   
 to have a look at the disk. there on   
 track 18, sector 0 was a batch of data 
 on the free area and two more sectors  
 (blocks) on track 18 were used.        
                                        
   as you know, that means that this    
 disk has to be backed up to work.      
 depending on the loader routine the    
 files may be possible to file copy     
 anyway, but you HAVE to back up the    
 disk first to copy the extra data on   
 track 18.                              
                                        
   in the case of boxing champion it    
 did work to scratch all files and then 

                TRACK 18          jerry 
 -------------------------------------- 
 to filecopy them back to the disk.     
 what is on track 18 is the drivepart   
 of the fast loader.                    
                                        
   what this means is that this crack   
 can not be copied to a 1581 disk or    
 any other media than a 1541 drive or   
 a full clone. to keep a full back up   
 on some other media, the 1541 disk has 
 to be zipped first.                    
                                        
                                        
   once again i will stick out my neck  
 and this time by stating that i regard 
 using track 18 like this to be LAME!   
                                        

                TRACK 18          jerry 
 -------------------------------------- 
   okay, okay, there ARE cases where it 
 is reasonable to use track 18.         
                                        
   if you need only a very few sectors  
 to avoid a two-sided version it makes  
 sense from the spreading point. still  
 as a collector i prefere not to.       
                                        
   if it would cost an unreasonable     
 ammount of re-coding of a mega filed   
 game, then i realize that a cracker    
 will not be interested in doing it.    
                                        
   most people don't bother one second  
 about this, so i suppose that you      
 wonder why I am so worked up.          

                TRACK 18          jerry 
 -------------------------------------- 
   there are several reasons, one is    
 that i am a serious collector. if one  
 day i want to preserv my colection on  
 a more secure media, i have to give    
 those lame track-18 cracks a special   
 treatment.                             
                                        
   as a collcetor AND swopper i also    
 want to make sure that my copy works.  
 of course i could play every game to   
 the bitter end, but you know that is   
 not a realistic option. life is too    
 short. in my experience making file    
 copies is the best way to make sure    
 that a copy works, so i want to have   
 that option.                           

                TRACK 18          jerry 
 -------------------------------------- 
   i suppose that using track 18 for    
 code is a remnant from trackloading.   
 if the crack is built on files, there  
 can be NO reason what so ever to fuck  
 up things that way. it will only mean  
 trouble for the user and no advantage  
 for the cracker.                       
                                        
   so crackers, if you REALLY want to   
 show us how clever you are, then show  
 this by NOT using track 18 for other   
 things than dir.

 -------------------------------------- 
                                        
   i got a "crack" of a game called:    
 POOL SIMULATOR 92.                     
                                        
   i knew that game and a fast scan of  
 my files brought out a version of it   
 cracked in feb 1987 by YETI FACTORIES. 
                                        
   so i knew that the startup screen of 
 this new version was a coverup to hide 
 the fact that this was actually a game 
 released by MASTERTRONICS.             
                                        
   this startup screen says that the    
 game is coded by e3/rebels and the     
 scrolltext in the crack intro also ->  

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92           
 -------------------------------------- 
 says that it is coded by e3/rebels.    
                                        
   all indications in the code that it  
 is a mastertronics game were removed.  
 as far as i can understand it, this E3 
 wants us to believe that he actually   
 did the code. else he would have said  
 at least somewhere that he only meant  
 to have a version with music added.    
                                        
   to do things like this is low in my  
 book. ultimately lame!                 
                                        
   i put the old YETI version and the   
 REBEL 1992 version on my next spread   
 disk along with a note asking     -->  

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92           
 -------------------------------------- 
 people to have a look on their own.    
 there was no accusation made and the   
 word recrack was not used at all.      
                                        
   i also refrained from making a       
 comment in THE GUIDE #16. some members 
 in REBELS think that i have some sort  
 of campaign against them, so i didn't  
 want to take it any further. maybe     
 that was wrong since we work hard to   
 keep THE GUIDE objective.              
                                        
   i should have known that if someone  
 is lame enough to pull a stunt like    
 POOL SIM 92, he wouldn't recognize     
 that i gave him the chance to let -->  

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92           
 -------------------------------------- 
 the subject slide off into oblivion.   
                                        
   instead E3 spreads a note to make    
 really sure that his beautiful recrack 
 doesn't pass by unnoticed.             
                                        
                                        
   what is the normal reaction from a   
 looser when he is cought with his      
 trousers down and his pale ass exposed 
 to the world?                          
                                        
   to draw the attention from his own   
 actions he starts hitting in all       
 directions with wild accusations.      
                                        

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92           
 -------------------------------------- 
   so does E3 too of course. the intro  
 to that note hints that TRIAD is       
 dictating what the scene should be     
 like and that we are destroying        
 friendship and brotherhood.            
                                        
   in the note itself i am told that    
 since i don't understand the principle 
 behind GCR code i should not comment   
 at all on code.                        
                                        
   he also states that since the old    
 group REBELS is dead and the old TRIAD 
 is dead we should allow the new REBELS 
 to work in peace. he points out that   
 he has seen a demo where it says  -->  

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92           
 -------------------------------------- 
 NEW TRIAD instead of just TRIAD.       
                                        
   he shoots off a number of questions  
 like how many TURBO ASSEMBLERS have we 
 released, when are we going to release 
 another SEUCK game and when will MUSIC 
 ASSEMBLER 1.4 be released with another 
 version of our old intro.              
                                        
                                        
   i got a bit pissed when i got that   
 note. not about the text, i am used to 
 that. no, what pissed me off was that  
 he didn't send the note to me. instead

   i decided to write to E3. i hoped to 
 find his address in NEWS PRESS. i did. 
                                        
   and i got myself a laugh!  it turned 
 out that E3 is the same person as      
 good old TRISECT/TRIAD. what do you    
 give me for that?  what a joke!        
                                        
   that sort of gave a new meaning to   
 the note and some of the comments in   
 it. after all, a guy who was kicked    
 out of TRIAD may have personal reasons 
 to critizise TRIAD.                    
                                        
                                        
   let's examine those items      --->  

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92           
 -------------------------------------- 
   let us first examine the statement   
 from E3 that he really never meant to  
 appear as having coded the game.       
                                        
   if that is the case why did he make  
 sure to remove the mastertronics name  
 from the code while he left so much    
 crap code in there?                    
                                        
   knowing E3 since his days in TRIAD,  
 no way i accept his explanation. it is 
 only a desperate attempt to save his   
 face as a REBELS member.               
                                        
   if he never meant to make it look    
 like he coded the game all on his -->  

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92           
 -------------------------------------- 
 own, then how come he and the REBELS   
 spread it as an original for others    
 to crack?  come on. get real!          
                                        
   without understanding it, E3 himself 
 shows you the proper way to credit a   
 piece of code when he mensions MUSIC   
 ASSEMBLER! take a look at $4a00 in     
 V1.3. that is TRIAD quality and class! 
                                        
   E3 states that i am not capable to   
 comment on code because i don't under- 
 stand gcr-code.                        
                                        
   well, actually i DO understand gcr-  
 code and i DO understand the thought > 

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92

 behind it, but i don't understand what 
 that has got to do with anything.      
                                        
   anyway, in 1541 USERS GUIDE there is 
 a fast explanation on pages 295-296.   
 and in INSIDE COMMODROE DOS on pages   
 114-117 there is a detailed explana-   
 tion to GCR-code and why. E3 could     
 surely learn a thing or to from it.    
                                        
   interesting enough the notefile by   
 E3 didn't work after the intro unless  
 it was started from monitor! to make   
 sure that i could read it, NEOTEC had  
 supplied the note itself separately.   
 now, WHO doesn't understand code?????? 

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92           
 -------------------------------------- 
   in the intro to the note, E3 says    
 that the scene is about friendship and 
 to unite people and it shouldn't be    
 run by dictatorship.                   
                                        
   he doesn't mension TRIAD directly,   
 but he implies that we hurt the scene. 
                                        
   i think that is a sick comment, no   
 group, TRIAD, TALENT, DOMINATORS or    
 any other group has power enough to    
 dictate the action of the scene or any 
 other group. the only possible reason  
 for making such a comment is to try to 
 make people feel sorry for little      
 REBELS terrorized by big TRIAD.        

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92           
 -------------------------------------- 
   i wonder how many times it has to be 
 said?                                  
                                        
   TRIAD has nothing against REBELS and 
 we don't care one bit if they use that 
 name. there has been at least two      
 groups before, who used the name       
 REBELS so why not a third one?         
                                        
   in the beginning BISMARCK/TRIAD did  
 object to the NEW REBELS and i allowed 
 myself to get stired up by this at one 
 occasion. i am sorry for that now, but 
 i didn't serously mean it. that is a   
 bad excuse, i know.  anyway, NO ONE in 
 TRIAD is against REBELS.  no one!      

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92

   i am fucking tired of hearing that   
 the present TRIAD is not the real      
 TRIAD. this is only another lame try   
 to make us look bad.                   
                                        
   TRIAD was formed on july 28th 1986.  
 since that day, TRIAD has been active  
 continously releasing wares. ever      
 since the start there have been active 
 members in TRIAD so how can we have    
 been dead?                             
                                        
   IXION spread his last TRIAD disk in  
 august 1988. i joined in october 1988  
 and took over the post as managing     
 director.                              

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92           
 -------------------------------------- 
   the members when i joined were:      
 801dc, twilight, titan, acu, pumpa,    
 skyie, devil & porta. does that sound  
 like TRIAD was dead?                   
                                        
   i, jerry, wanted us to change name   
 into NEW TRIAD, but the old members    
 didn't want that. SERGEANT PEPPER used 
 NEW TRIAD in a few small demos.        
                                        
   E3 wants to know when we are going   
 to release another seuck game. he is   
 sarcastic of course. THE SARGE/TRIAD   
 made 5 seuck games. 4 were released    
 before i joined. the 5th was completed 
 by 801dc affter i had joined.          

           POOL SIMULATOR ´92           
 -------------------------------------- 
   i have never liked seuck games much, 
 but as those games go, the 5 made by   
 THE SARGE and TRIAD are some of the    
 very  best ever done. at least         
 regarding the graphix.                 
                                        
   E3 wants to know when TRIAD will     
 release another version of TURBO ASS.  
 i am not aware that we have released   
 even one version.                      
                                        
   it is of course possible that one of 
 our coders has made a personal version 
 that has found it's way outside TRIAD, 
 but i don't think that is something    
 unique for TRIAD. what about it?

   E3 wants to know when we will        
 release MUSIC ASSEMBLER 1.4 with a new 
 version of our old intro.              
                                        
   well, GREG/FACES had a suggestion    
 for yet another improvement, but there 
 are other more important things to do, 
 so i can't give an answer.             
                                        
   as for yet another version of our    
 old intro. we can make you happy and   
 you don't even have to inhale. there   
 will be more of those intros comming,  
 that is a firm promise.

 -------------------------------------- 
   some people wonder why i bother to   
 comment when a guy like E3 makes a     
 recrack of an old game.                
                                        
   the reason is that he really treats  
 us as if we are too fucking stupid to  
 notice. it also upsets me when people  
 assume credit for something they have  
 no part in.                            
                                        
   maybe it is even worse when they are 
 cought in the act and they try to talk 
 their way out of it instead of taking  
 the heat.

   well, though TALENT are still alive, 
 they have cracked nothing since last   
 september. accessing the boards has    
 been the problem for them, as it has   
 been to all U.K. members of the group

 releases being distributed elsewhere   
 in europe before they get into the

   the scene here is disappointing. no  
 new groups coming through, just        
 ENTROPY and MAYHEM digging in, but     
 they are doing very little on either

 be back on line in mid-january.        
                                        
   meanwhile, the guys  in ARCADE split 
 up and four of them asked to join us.  
 this only lasted for 24 hours. then for
 some reason still unknown to me, they  
 left again. so we did have a board for 
 24 hours. HOLIDAY INN CAMBODIA, but    
 now this has all gone as water under   
 the bridge. i suppose it will make

 news in all the disk mags. but i still 
 await the full truth of this episode.  
                                        
  well not much more to say, only that  
 i heard from a good source that at     
 least budget games will be still       
 released throughout 1993. some small   
 comfort.

   here i am after having been "asked"  
 to write some words about THE          
 NETHERLANDS or better known to most of 
 you as holland.                        
                                        
   before i start talking about the     
 dutch scene, i will tell you why       
 holland is actually the netherlands    
 and why most people call it HOLLAND.   
                                        
   okay, the above may sound crappy,    
 but it is the way it is... it all      
 started back in the mediaevel when the 
 provinces north- and south-holland  -> 

              DUTCH CORNER              
 -------------------------------------- 
 were the most important provinces. as  
 in north-holland you have amsterdam,   
 which had a big harbour where a lot of 
 merchants and their ships and their    
 warehouses etc. so you can conclude    
 from this that it was a very rich      
 province.                              
                                        
   south-holland also had a harbour     
 which you all know as the biggest      
 harbour in europe... these             
                                        
   these were the two richest provinces 
 where a lot of foreign merchants and   
 normal people came. and since then     
 they call the netherlands, holland.    

              DUTCH CORNER              
 -------------------------------------- 
   if you ask me if i would offended    
 when you say that i live in holland,   
 i would say no!!! but i would tell you 
 that holland isn't the same as the     
 netherlands... compare it with the     
 united kingdom, great-britain and      
 england. anyway, i guess this all is a 
 bit confusing now... let me know if i  
 am wrong!!!                            
                                        
   now something about the scene. to be 
 honest, i haven't been around that     
 long on the scene. but that doesn't    
 mean i can't tell something about it.  
                                        
  okay, i got my first 64 in early   -> 

              DUTCH CORNER              
 -------------------------------------- 
 1986. i wanted to have one as my uncle 
 had bought a c-128! at that time my    
 hobby was horse-back riding. i asked   
 my dad if i could get a commodore      
 computer. as it had much better gfx    
 than the spectravideo 328 mkii we had  
 at that moment. i had to give up my    
                                        
   i had to give up my horse (pony)     
 and then i could get a 64. so i did,   
 perhaps the most stupid move i have    
 ever made as i was rather good at it.  
                                        
   after having the 64 for about 6      
 months, i got in contact with a dude   
 at school. he had an msx at that time. 

              DUTCH CORNER              
 -------------------------------------- 
   but a cousin of his also had a 64!   
 this is the way i got in contact with  
 the scene, but i didn't even bother to 
 enter the real scene as i only played  
 games etc. then after some years of    
 doing nothing, i had the courage to    
 contact some 20 dudes and after that   
 my scene-life started.                 
                                        
   here in holland we have had a lot of 
 famous groups like artworx, m.o.n.,    
 tmc, bcc, hotline and some more i      
 cannot remember at the mo'.            
                                        
   at present we have some minor crack- 
 ing groups and one or two big ones.    

              DUTCH CORNER              
 -------------------------------------- 
   success is the group of which i know 
 most as the only bbs here is the       
 success ehq! all my friends are also   
 calling there (all successers).        
                                        
   without being prejudiced i'd say scs 
 is the 'best' cracking group in the    
 netherlands and black mail should be   
 the best demo-group. (ever)            
                                        
   hmmm... i wish i would be a bit more 
 updated about the scene here, but the  
 fact is that i live in the north-east  
 of the netherlands and the majority of 
 the scene is situated it the south and 
 the west of the netherlands...         

              DUTCH CORNER              
 -------------------------------------- 
   okay, this is all i can tell. sorry  
 for not being detailed but that is due 
 to the fact that i have a lot of       
 studying to do and it kills most of my 
 leisure time.                          
                                        
   anyway, i hope you'll be satisfied,  
 as i have never written text like this.
                                        
   okay, perhaps i'll see ya all later!
