RELESE DATE: 05.09.88.... WELL, WOT'S ALL THIS ABOUT?? WHO ARE WE?? WOT'VE WE DONE?? THERE ARE LOTS OF QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED BUT FIRST SOME CREDITS! THIS CHAR-SET WAS MADE BY GOD-KNOWS-WHO.... ALL OTHER CHARS WERE DRAWN BY SARUMAN... ODD EFFECT GRAPHICS FROM 'ACTION BIKER' AND 'I-BALL'.... MUSIC BY MARCEL DONNE (MAD/MANIACS OF NOISE) CALLED 'SCORPION'... CODING BY SARUMAN... IDEAS BY SARUMAN AND IT.... THIS DEMO IS WHAT ONE CAN CALL, 100 PERCENT UNPLANNED.... I JUST SAT DOWN AND MADE THIS SCROLLER FOR A START AND THEN THE IDEAS CAME ON ONE BY ONE, SO THE CODE IS RHAA CLUMSY BUT WHO CARES... AND NOW AFTER A WEEK ALL IDEAS ARE PUT ONTO THIS SCREEN... IF YOU FEEL THERE'S SOMETHING MISSING THEN I CAN TELL YOU WOT IT IS.. I ALSO SAT HERE THINKING 'IT LOOKS A BIT STRANGE' AND ACTUALLY IT TOOK ME A FEW MINUTES BEFORE I REALIZED THAT THERE ARE NO RASTERS... WELL, THERE ARE A FEW LINES IN THIS SCROLLER BUT NOT IN THE BORDER! YOU MUST AGREE IT LOOKS A BIT ODD... WELL, ANYHOW THIS IS WOT CAME UP AFTER NOT TOO MUCH PLANNING... THE LIFE-LOGO LOOKS A BIT WEIRD BUT IT'S DUN ON PURPOSE COZ THIS IS WEIRD... THE OTHER TWO SCROLLERS ARE: CONTACT AND GREETINGS SCROLLER (THE ONE CONNECTED TO THE LOGO .ED) AND A 'SHIT' SCROLLER (THE BOUNCING ONE AT THE BOTTOM .ED)... ALLRIGHT, WHO ARE LIFE?? WELL, A FEW WEEKS AGO THERE WAS A GROUP CALLED 'FRONT' (HEARD OF THEM?), THEY WERE ASKED BY FAIRLIGHT TO JOIN FLT... SO THEY DID... AFTER 3 WEEKS STRIDER CAME HOME FROM HIS TRIP TO THE STATES.... BLACK SHADOW HAD BROUGHT A COUPLE OF MEMBERS INTO FLT ON THE AMIGA... THEY DECIDED TO START 'FLT' ALL OVER AGAIN AND WE WERE ASKED TO STAY BUT WE DIDN'T WANT TO... WELL, AS TONNES OF GROUPS HAD STARTED TO USE 'FRONT' IN THEIR NAMES WE DIDN'T WANT TO CALL OURSELVES 'FRONT' ANYLONGER SO WE FOUND THE NAME 'LIFE'... THE GROUP CONSISTS OF THE OLD FRONT TEAM AND A FORMER 'DRAKKAR' MEMBER CALLED 'VIRGIL' (YOU'LL SOON SEE SOMETHING FROM HIM .ED)... WELL, THE FIRST THING WE DID WAS CRACKING 'THE VINDICATOR - GREEN BERET II' FROM OCEAN (THE CRUNCHERS ALMOST CRACKED SARUMAN AND IT .ED).... THE NEXT THING TO LAY OUR HANDS ON WAS 'PSYCHO PIGS' WHICH WAS CRACKED 2 DAYS AGO (31.08.88)... AND NOW WE ARE BACK IN THE GOOD OLD UNION....THE RIFFS - YEAH RRRRIGHT! THIS IS A GROUP WHICH HAS MEMBERS IN HOLLAND - ENGLAND - SWEDEN AND WEST GERMANY... I THINK YOU ALL HAVE SEEN SOMETHING FROM 'RIFFS' SOMETIMES BUT HAVE YOU SEEN "MARC'S MOVEMENTS"??? IN CASE YOU'VE MISSED IT.... STIFF SHIT! TRY TO GET IT AT ONCE!! YOU WON'T SEE TOO MUCH FROM THIS COOL BLOKE AS HE HAS MOVED TO THE PLACE WHERE HIS SCHOOL IS LOCATED, NOT SO MUCH TIME FOR PROGRAMMING, UNFORTUNATELLY! WELL, AS I HAVE TO DASH DOWN TO BUY 23 LITRES OF BEER I THINK I'D BETTER LEAVE OVER TO 'IT' FOR A WHILE..... BY THE WAY, IT'S A HOME-BREW BEER! SEE YOU LATER... HI! SO, THIS IS LIFE, YOU THINK?! AND IT SURELY IS! WELL, I THINK SARUMAN HAVE SAID THE MOST NECESSARY THINGS, AS THERE'S ONE 'SHIT-TEXT' SCROLLER SOMEWHERE IN THE BOTTOM BORDER, I THINK I'LL SAVE THE MOST OF MY TEXT TO THAT ONE.... I JUST TALKED TO GETAFIX OVER THE PHONE, HIS NEW COMPACKER IS FINNISHED. BY THE WAY, YOU'LL VERY SOON SEE A COOL DEMO FROM 'GSS (GERMAN SPREADING SERVICE) OF THE RIFFS'! YES, THEY'RE ALSO IN THE ULTIMATE UNION....RIFFS! HMM..HERE'S SARUMAN BACK WITH HIS 23 LITRES OF BEER, SO I THINK I'LL LEAVE OVER TO HIM AGAIN...SEE YOU SOON IN THE BOTTOM BORDER! HELLO AGAIN, SARUMAN HERE... AS YOU SAW WE'VE MANAGED TO GET 2 MORE MEMBERS INTO RIFFS.. YES, MARAUDER INC. OF GSS INTL.!! THEY'LL SOON RELEASE THEIR DEMO WHICH WILL CONTAIN A NEW EFFECT...

SO, NOW WE ARE IN THE BORDER TRYING TO GET SOMETHING SAID... WELL, WOT CAN I SAY?? NOT VERY MUCH, BUT I CAN TAKE UP THE STUPID QUESTION: WHY ARE JETSPEED TALKING SHIT ABOUT THE MOST SWEDISH GROUPS?? WELL, AS WE ARE SORT OF CONCENTRATED ON CRACKING WE'LL GET TONNES OF CHANCES TO SLAGG THEM OFF SO I WON'T DO IT HERE... JUST A NOTE TO 'FUZZ' (OSCAR KUKASKALLE) AND THE 2 FORMER BFD GUYS IN KARLSKRONA: SO, THE WHOLE JETSPEED ARE GOING TO START A WAR AGAINST US!? WELL, WE'D LIKE TO HEAR THAT FROM THE 'REAL' GUYS IN JETSPEED AS WELL! THOUGH WE HAVEN'T SAID A WORD THEY STILL GO ON TALKING NONSENCE ABOUT US, FAIRLIGHT, TRIAD, RIFFS AND SEVERAL OTHERS.... AAAH, WHY BE BOTHERED!? I DON'T KNOW WOT MORE I CAN SAY... TOMORROW 'ALF' STARTS ALL MVER AGAIN WITH 6 NEW PROGRAMMES!! REALLY SMASHING.... I GUESS I STOP HERE, JUST A NOTE TO GOBLIN/AGILE: WHERE IS THE TAPE??? DON'T WAIT TOO LONG!! TO INJUN/AGILE: WRITE YOU AS SOON AS I GET THE ADDRESS AGAIN!! LEAVING.... -
