Skyhigh 16 Reactions

Yes, finally !

What did the scene think of the improvements ? Were they satisfied; did they like it or hate it, or didn't they care at all ???

Well to tell the truth then it's a bit too early to say. The reason is that I haven't recieved that many reac tions, YET... But I guess, and expect, that they will start dumping in from now on. According to spreading time, back - sendings and much more, it's a bit of a time pressure to expect them for this issue, but as said, then they will probably pop up in the nearest future.

So I'm quite excited... But anyway, someone did find its way for this issue, so let's cut the crap and get down to bizness..


The first one is a small one from Poland.


This mag is ruling in world scene! The outfit is nice but not ruling. Articles are cool. Charst is cool (?) Many musics. Graphics are cool... Don't change anything

Yo Tomasz.

Thanx for the nice words. Ruling the world scene !! Hmm, pretty hard words, but thanx a lot. Buuuaaaaah, my outfit doesn't rule ..... He-he... Well to be honest then I like it a lot myself, but why not change anything (the outfit) if it doesn't rule ???) I thought it was my job to seek perfection. Well any- way please send me a note telling me what you don't like, or could be better. Then we'll take a look at it. Charst is cool ..... Hmm, what do you mean by this. I couldn't figure out if it should be either charset or charts... Please lemme know ok.. Well, besides this then you sound very satisfied with the mag. So I'll try to continue it for a long time.

Ps. Thank you very much for spreading some sheets for me.. I really appriciated it..

Next one is from another good pal of mine. This is a pal who keeps pushing me to organize another co-op demo. Right Jonas - He he.

But read on pals.


Hi Jesper.

I just read the latest Skyhigh. It kicks ass!!! Just some small modifications on some text and it will be perfect. I read in one of your anti-nazi chapters that there is a guy called 'Onkel Adolf'/Censor in the scene. First : He's not in Censor and he hasn't been in for 2 years. His handle is only 'Adolf' and he is a Swe- dish patriot and skinhead. He got the handle from one of the big Swedish kings : 'Gustaf II Adolf'. He used to have a board called 'Third Reich', but it is down since a year. The name was invented by : Dr.Cool/ex-Censor, who is a nationalsocialistic skinhead. - Why not a anti-communism demo... The left wing parties and organizations are getting bigger. RAF, BZ and AFA are some of the names. Ok, keep up the good work and stay cool!!

Yo Jonas.

Thanx for your long reaction on various subjects brought up by me. It's cool to hear that you liked the latest issue so much. Just some small modifications in the text and it will be perfect. Hmmm, could you be more specific on what you mean!! Coz if you could point your finger on a text and say "that part could've been better" or "if you did this instad of that" then I could try to improve it in the future. Get my point?

Thanx for the information concerning this Adolf.. You might have a piece of truth in it. But honestly: I think that something does smell rotten. A guy named Adolf agrees to have a board called something as disguis- ting as 'Third Reich' !! Well I think something stinks. Well leave that for now - ok.

About doing an anti-communism demo.. He he you keep pushing me to do such a thing. Well lemme explain something then. To me communism is not really a huge threat. Just take a look around Europe.. It should be clear to everybody that communism is on it's way down. Numerous contries has had their fight against the communistic governments, and won.. The old Rus- sia is naturally the best example of 'em all. Unfortunately the 'victories' has lead to other, and perhaps ?? bigger, problems. What I'm trying to say is that to me this is not as big a problem as the nazism. I have nothing but contempt for nazism. Actually I believe that the world is mov- ing away from communism; which is good ofcourse..

Concerning the, by you, mentioned groups :

As I have understood it, then RAF are working on get ting away from the armed fights. Whether they are communist or not I don't really know! - Concerning BZ Then I presume you mean 'bes[ttere' right !! (A Danish word for a group of people who illegally sit in houses.) If you do then I have this to say. I never think that BZ have been Communistic. Honestly I just see them as troublemakers trying to reach anarchy. About AFA, well I don't even know what that is...

Well before this will be a political chapter, I better end it. But thanks a lot for the idea; maybe somone else will do the work and organize it.

I'll try to keep up the work. You to stay cool.

Up next are two small reactions from the scene


Yo staff, I haven't any comment at your mag. The outfit is terrific. Hold it so as now, but try to use an iffl-linker with the fastloader

Diamond/GD/Inz


Yo Remco.

Thanx for your kind words. It's my intention to keep this outfit for quite a while. Though small modifica- tions might appear. About the iffl-linking. Hmmm, no I don't think I will use it. 2 reasons :

1 : If a chapter bugs or have to be rewritten I'll have to pack it all over again.

2 : In my personal opinion a mag has to have a cer- tain look on the disk; the mainfile and the chapters. Then you might say that I can simply do a fake dir on the disk. Well sure I could, but still...

Furthermore what would the benefit be by using such an iffl packer ?? - None as far as I'm informed. Thanx for the suggestion anyway. Stay phonkee.

SKYHIGH is the best! - Cool outfit - Good zackx - More addy'S than in other mags.

Keep it up ! Sniper/Seminary


Yo Jan!

Nice words from you... I'll see to that Skyhigh will be there in the future aswell. About the many addies, take a look at Tha Biz-mix chapter. By the way; I simply love the word : 'zackx'.... He-he!!

Ok keep reading...

BIZ KID


Following reaction is from another good Swedish pal of mine. Not only a reaction, but also some feedback and/or information to my thoughts in the latest Biz- mix. Check it out ya'll...


Yabba Jesper.

The new outfit woz great. It woz exactly what your mag needed. Too bad though that the pageflip rou- tine flips not just a page, but a page & 2 lines.

ANNOYING......

I also want to react on one of your chapters. I do not remember in which chapter it woz, but ya wrote about if you'd had your skills of today 10 years ago & so on. Anyway, in that chapter you wrote that it would have been a revolution if a musician would have used multi-speed players. The fact is that : MARTIN GALWAY sometimes used multi speed. In, Terra Cresta for instance, which is (c) 1986 Imagine, he used a quadrospeed for the main tune! I can mention more :

Short Circuit (c) 1986 Ocean
Yie Ar Kung-Fu II (c) 198?
Wizball (c) 1987 Ocean

& I could easily list at least 5 more. I know you couldn't know about this, but I just wan ted to inform that whoever claims HE 'invented' multispeed-tunes were far behind the real legend:

MARTIN GALWAY

Thank you for reading /Zyron.


Yo Johan!

Thanx for your very good and informative reaction. First of all; thanx for your nice words regarding the magazine. I also had found the bug in the page-flip routine. Actually I told Raz about it, but somehow he forgot to fix it. BUT he has promised that he'll fix it for this issue, and I believe him. Coz as you say your self : it's very annoying. I agree with you.

Concerning your feedback to my chapter. Hmmm, well you are absolutely right, I didn't know that it had been used (multi speed tunes) back then. And I appriciate it very much that someone, which have such informations, like you have, react and in- form about it to the rest of the scene. Well I presume it's no big secret that you are a big admirer of Martin Galway. But hey, maybe you've got something more to share with the rest of us. If so, then I would very much encourage you to think about doing a chapter for me and SKYHIGH. I myself find such information very interessting, and I believe that I'm not the only one. So why not think about it my friend. In the same time I would like to thank you many times for the update on the D.O.T.Y. situation. Best of luck to you...

Next on is quite cryptic, but I'll try to deciffer it anyway. Go ahead Rap.


Hi there, here's Rap/Jbl/NN/Lepsi.

I'd like to say that in the SKYHIGH #15 were to few articles. I mean not articles as a figure, but I men- tion the interesting ones. Addresses, charts, and history of OXY death (<- that was cool!). Hope to see mo' articles, anyway isn't bad, I'd say - very well! Rap


Yo Rafael.

Thanx for the reaction. Unfortunately I have a pro- blem understanding what you exactly mean. But I presume what you mean is : that you want more 'text-chapters'.. If so then this issue should satisfy you a lot. Take a closer look at chapters like :

Vision - Cupid Corner - Tha Bizmix! - Pirate BBS and all the others.

Anyway.... Enjoy this one. And thanx for the tunes.. Feel welcome to mail me more if you want to. I'm al- ways on the lookout for more tunes.

Stay phonkee. BIZ KID


Celtic of Genlog has some words to me on the way. Check it out ya'll!!


Yo Jesper, the new outfit is simply great, the up- scroll in proportionalchar is cool! Maybe you could change the logo, coz this one has already been in for a long time. The x-traz are nice too, good com- mercial info for E.B.E.S.! I hope to see a cool new issue soon. Celtic


Yo Joost!

Thanx for the nice words about this magazine. Be sure to find another cewl issue in the future as well.. About the logo : Well actually there should already had been another logo in the previous issue, but I couldn't make it in time. So here you get it instead. Satisfied - eh!!! I'm very happy that you like the extras.. I myself think it's one hell of an idea.. Brag - brag - brag, no seriously... I also think it's a great opportunity for everybody to spread whatever they want!! Pictures, tunes, demoparts, games, commercials .... You name it...

Once again, stay cool my friend.

BIZ KID


Next one has found its way to me from up north. To be more precise : Finland... Take it away boys..


Yo Biz Kid...

Here is Jer/Panic/No Name/Mystic giving reaction about your famous & old magazine, Yep.. your magazine is just fine, but always good ideas are welcomed ? Good I'm just thought about following improvements for SKYHIGH #16 :

- Lamiga mouse support. - Dual driver loader. If drive #9 = turn on, then check always b-side from drive #9, simple !! - 36-41 tracks using loader system. - Debugged loader system.

Ok.. sorry if this make you cry and saying " I wanna kill you!" he-he. I think this reaction keeps uou up- dated in quality of scene warez. Skyhigh rules, The magazine of gods !!

Jer


Yo Jari!

Thanx for the feedback with constructive comments. Sure new ideas are always welcomed. But why don't I just start answering your questions.

- Lamiga mouse support.... Hmm, not a bad idea, I will sure think about it.. - Dual drive loader... No, I don't think so. Why ? Well actually I believe that it's not such a good idea. The reason is that to make it work on two drives, you'll have to back-up copy the b-side to another disk. And honestly then I don't think people would do that... A nice gimmick though. - 36-41 tracks... Hmm I don't know much about this, so I don't really know what to say.. - Debugged loader system; well what are the bugs you're refering to ??? Please let us know and we'll work it out...

Well, probably my answers are not what you expected so I hopt that you want cry and say : 'I wanna kill'em' he - he... Well my friend, once again, thanx a lot for the cewl suggestions and ideas. Keep 'em comming.

If you have got something on your mind then don't be afraid to tell me. As a matter of fact then I would like you to write it down and mail it to me at this addy


BIZ KID/CAMELOT

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I will then try to answer it in an upcomming issue of this magazine. Exclusive tunes, feedback, chapters and good advices are all welcome. Just do it.
