RIGHT WELL THAT ABOUT DOES IT FER FAMOUS PEEPS SHITE. I THINK I'LL TELL YAS ABOUT THE FOOD (NOT VERY INTERESTING I KNOW BUT I WANT TO HAVE 10K OF SCROLL TEXT FOR THIS SO FAR ITS ABOUT 7K. RIGHT, WELL YOU WON'T BELIEVE THE COST OF A BLOODY COKE, 80P FOR LESS THAN HALF A CAN. 80P TOTLLAY OTT, THATS WORSE THAN LAST YEAR, IT WAS ONLY 1 POUND FOR A CAN INSTEAD OF 1.60. ARGH, SANDWICHS WERE 2.75 FOR 2 BITS OF WHITE BREAD WITH A SLICE IF HAM IN IT. BLOODY DAYLIGHT ROBBERY AND BECAUSE OF THAT I HAD TO EAT BURGER KINGS AND KEBABS ALL THE TIME, IF THERE ARE THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW WHAT A BURGER KING IS IT'S BASICALLY A MACDONALDS WITH ABOUT 10 TIMES MORE RELISH AND SHITE ON IT. EH UM, THE KEBABS WERE REALLY NICE VERY SPICY CHILI SAUCE OH YEAH ON ME SECOND DAY THERE I SAY A ALMOST FINISHED COPY OF THE INNER CIRCLES NEW MEGA DEMO -THE DECADE DEMO- (IT WAS MENT TO BE OUT AT NEW YEAR) BUT IT WAS WELL WORTH THE WAIT. EH I STILL AIN'T GOT A FINISHED COPY, CONSIDERING THE FINGERBOBS HAVE A SCREEN IN IT I THINK THATS A BIOT BAD. I THINK THE MOST IMPRESIVE BITTY I SEEN WAS THE MAIN MENU, FULL SCREEN (NO BORDERS AT ALL) VERY LARGE AND VERY SMOOTH HORIZONTAL SCROLLING ALA UNION DEMO BUT MUCH BETTER, IN FACT THERE IS EVEN A RUMOUR THAT IT'S BETTER THAN TCB'S CUDDLY DEMOS, BUT WELL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE ABOUT THAT ONE. TALKING ABOUT MEGA DEMOS, IS THERE ANYONE OUT THERE WHO HAS HEARD ABOUT -RED SECTORS- MEGA DEMO 2 (YES I KNOW RED SECTOR ARE ONLY ON THE AMIGA BUT, QUITE ALOT OF ST OWNING LADS/LASSES HAVE AMIGAS 2 INCLUDING ME) ANYWAY I WANT TO KNOW IF ITS OUT YET OR WHEN IT'LL BE OUT. IF YOU KNOW AND YOU HAVE A MODEM THEN LEAVE ME MAIL ON -STEALTH BBS 0532 557739 - MAIL NAME IS -THE CAPED CRUSADER-. ANYWAYS YET AGAIN THERE WILL BE A NEW MEGA DEMO AT THE END OF THIS YEAR OR THE START OF NEXT FROM THE FINGERBOBS, AT THE MOMENT IT HAS THE TITLE OF -AUDIO ORGY- YES THATS RIGHT THERE IS GOING TO BE A LOT OF MUSIC PROBABLY ALOT OF NOISETRACKER AND TCB TRACKER STUFF.. ANYWAY LOOK ITS 4 MINS TO 1 IN THE MORNING OF FRIDAY THE 21ST OF SEPTEMBER, AND I'M WATCHING THAT DOUG MCCLURE FILM, -WARLORDS OF ATLANTIS- HMM ANYWAY I WONDER HOW MUCH TEXT WE ARE UPTO???.......... HMMM JUST UNDER 9K NOT TOO BAD WILL I MAKE IT 10K OR JUST LEAVE IT AS IT IS HMMMMMMM????? HMMMM YEAH I'LL GO UPTO 10K THEN STOP THERE, HMM SO I HAVE DECIDED TO TALK ABOUT THE -TCB TRACKER- WELL WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT THIS TOTALLY AWESOME PROGRAM, IT IS POSSIBLE TO CONVERT AMIGA SOUNDTRACKER MODULES ACROSS TO -TCB TRACKER- FORMAT, IT DOESN'T CONVERT ALL ASPECTS OF THE SOUNDTRACKER, IE, VOLUME SET, PITCH BENDING, PATTERN JUMP, BUT YOU CAN REINSTALL PITCH BENDING AND PATTERN BREAK, BT NOT PATTERN JUMP, PLUS IT ONLY HAS SPACE FOR 16 SAMPLES, THE NEW VERSION, COMING SOON, WILL HAVE UP TO 31/32 INSTRUMENTS, AS WELL AS PROPER FUNCTIONS AND SPECIAL EFFECTS PLUS THE FACT THAT THE REPLAY SOURCE CAN ALSO PLAY THE MUSIC BACK IN STEREO ON THE STE'S WHICH IS NICE... CONSIDERING THIS WAS PUT TOGETHER WITH THE -TCB TRACKER- WHICH BY THE WAY IS AVAILBLE FROM -MPH- FOR 39.95, THE NUMBER IS (0603) 503382 ASK FOR STEPHEN MINNS, OR PHIL HARMEN HMM WELL I THINK THATS ME NEARLY UP TO THE MAGIC 10K SO I'LL LEAVE YOU SOON, JUST A QUICK ADDITION TO THE GREETS 'THE ONES' I MISSED EARLIER, HEHE OMEGA.. OVERLANDERS.. ORACLE.. QUARTEX.. ANGELS.. SKID ROW.. RIGHT WELL THATS IT FOLKS, I HOPE YOU READ ALL THIS TEXT PROPERLY AND NOT WITH A BLOODY, SECTOR EDITOR OR WHATEVER. AND I'LL SEE YOU LOT IN AUDIO ORGY TILL THEN TDL... WHICH BY THE WAY MEANS, TOO DAA LOO. SO UNTIL THEN ITS GOODBYE FROM ME AND A GOOD BYE FROM -THE CAPED CRUSADER- FINAL TEXT SIZE - 10425KB...
