Mamba 21 ch01 The Month in Brief
From C64 Diskmag Wiki
hye there...
despite the holidays, summer time etc
there have happened some interesting
things that you will be informed
about...
the most surprising news this month
comes apparently from london, where
the organizers cancelled the eces-
show in the last minute...
no further informations available
at this time, as noone was able to
name any reasons yet.
we'll keep you informed!
very bad news arrived from a little
town in germany called ohlum.
nemesis (x-dom, i+t etc) has had a
serious accident, he,riding his bike,
was colliding with a car, and suffers
from interior injuries.
he had to undergo an operation and
was in coma the first day...
now the worst is over, and we hope
for a speedy, complete recovery !
...back to the normal business
(quite difficult though)
for a change we thought it might be
interesting to list up all the
people that makes one normal issue
of mamba< possible. this one for
example : (thanks to all of you!)
bod/talent despiser/mirage
aycee/tsm shark/censor
deltar/tsm skater/censor
frank/enigma tristan/empire
gotcha axl rose/attacker
hok/action magic man/enigma
gadget/action sebio/enigma
spitfire/action chrysagon/x-ray
tricket/dom cosmo/dominators
asterix! and some more...
opinion poll
------------
you are in a club/disco and all your
friends are dancing leaving you
alone. you look around for someone
to dance with and see 4 nicely built
girls standing in a group chatting.
which girl do you approach and ask
to dance ?
votes %
1) the girl with black hair 17 23.9
2) the girl with blonde hair 27 38
3) the girl with brown hair 11 15.4
4) the girl with red hair 5 7
5) flip a coin 11 15.4
(ed. somehow i think this poll is
more interesting for girls, you might
show that to your girl-friend ?!)
another one...

they prefer calling. what makes a
board your 'favourite' ??

* note that both opinion polls had
been set up on the shaolin temple.
again you are going to witness the
first-release charts, based on the
first version uploaded to our three
boards we take into account for these
charts...
* the forum
* the shaolin temple
* second to none
+
ok here are the new look charts.
as always we have tried to be as
objective as possible where the lamer
charts are concerned.
check the lamer chart itself for more
details of the way these games are
judged. as you will notice all four
charts will be seperated and there'll
be a section at the end for details of
other releases. ie. previews and
utilitys.
