ADRENALIN U.K. (NOT OF T.B.A!) IS BACK! YOUR HOSTS FOR THIS MENU ARE... DIVINE, MAC ERROR, MOOKIE AND THE ASSASSIN. READ ALL SCROLLTEXT. IT'S MAC ERROR HERE INTRODUCING THIS DISK, DIVINE WILL BE BLESSING YOUR SCREENS IN A MINUTE BUT FIRST HERE'S SOME INFO ON CIVILISATION. NOTE THAT THIS DISK (ADRENALIN 35A) CONTAINS THE CIVILISATION GAME DISK AND ALSO CIVILISATION DISK C, THE REST OF THE GAME (DISKS A AND B) IS ON ADRENALIN 35 DISK B SO MAKE SURE YOU GET ADRENALIN CD 35 DISK B OR YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO PLAY THE GAME! PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS GAME WAS ORIGIONALLY ON 4 DISKS (ADRENALIN KICK ASS AGAIN!). NOW SOME WORDS OF KNOWLEDGE (NOT!) FROM THE MAN WEARING THE SILLY HAT... D I V I N E. DIVINE OF ADRENALIN WELCOMES YOU TO ADRENALIN DISK 35 SPREAD THE WORD ADRENALIN ARE NOT DEAD PRODUCTION HAS BEEN SLOW ILL ADMIT. WE HAVE ONLY PRODUCED 6 DISKS SINCE 1992. BUT WHAT A 6 DISKS THEY HAVE BEEN. EACH DISK CONTAINS A GOOD QUALITY INTRO WITH FULLY WORKING PACKED AND LINK FILED TITLES SOME OF WHICH WERE CRACKED BY ADRENALIN MEMBERS. BUT DO NOT THINK US SLOW INCASE YOU HAD NOT NOTICED BUT THEIR ARE NOW 9 TOP QUALITY MODULE DISKS FLOODING THE BEST PD LIBARYS AS WELL AS OUR USEUAL SUPPLIERS DISK BOXES. YES IT IS THE SAME ADRENALIN..... ASWELL AS MENU COMPACTS AND MOD DISKS WE HAVE ALSO RELEASED ADRENALIN PD 1 WHICH CONTAINS A LOAD OF PACKED LINKED OR TRAINED PD TITLES ALONG WITH UTILS AND DOC FILES. I D I V I N E AM LEAVING THE PIRATE SCENE FOR A FEW MONTHS AND TAKING OVER ADRENALIN PD DISKS FULL TIME. SO ILL BE PUMPING OUT LOTS OF PACKS AND LINKS LATER THIS SUMMER MAC ERROR WILL BE GIVEN FULL CONTOLL OF THE MOD DISKS WHICH HE MORE OR LESS CONTROLLS NOW. AND MOOKIE WILL BECOME OFFICIALY HEAD OF THE PIRACY SCENE. ADRENALIN WILL STILL REMAIN UNITED AND INTOUCH BUT WE WILL BE HITTING THE ST SCENE FROM ALL ANGELS WELL LET ME TELL YA QUICKLY ABOUT THE PD DISKS. THEY WILL CONTAIN A LOAD OF PD STUFF FROM UTILS TO THE NEWEST PD GAMES. THEY WILL NOT BE ALOAD OF SHIT AND OF COURSE THE INTROS WILL BE AS GOOD AS ALWAYS...... THE TOP ADRENALIN CODERS AND CEMI CODERS WILL BE GIVING OVER LOTS OF NICE CODE. I MYSELF HAVE CODED AN AVERAGE MENU BASED ON A SPRITE ROUTINE BY SOME FRENCH CREW. IF I CAN JUST SPEED EVERYTHING UP A BIT AND MAYBE GET SOME DIGI CHIP MUSIC GOEING I'LL USE THE INTRO ON SOME PD DISKS..... RIGHT THATS THE CURRENT NEWS ON THE ADRENALIN SCENE OH YES SOMETHING ELSE.... BACK IN AUGEST OF 92 ADRENALIN AND INSANITY FOUNDED A COLLABORATION CALLED THE BRITTISH ALIANCE.... WHAT I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE T.B.A IS SIMPLE ITS OVER..... ADRENALIN LOST TOUCH WITH MANY OF THE GROUPS INVOLVED IN IT.. APART FROM PELE OF THE LEMMINGS CODEING A BOOTSECTOR FOR THE T.B.A AND CID RELEASING A CODE DISK FOR THE T.B.A NO ONE REALLY DID MUCH. THEORY HAS IT THAT CERTAIN GROUPS WERE LIVINEG OFF THE BIGGER CREWS.... SOMEONE TOLD ME RECENTLY THAT MOST OF THE T.B.A WAS DONE ANYWAY. SO IF THIS IS THE CASE WE WOULD BE A BIT SILLY TO KEEP PUTTING THE NAME EVERYWHERE. SO WITH ADRENALINS FULL AGREEMENT WE ARE NOW OFFICIALLY OUT OF THE T.B.A NOT THAT I THINK IT IS STILL GOING............ IF THE T.B.A IS STILL UP AND RUNNING THEN OF COURSEE THE OTHER GROUPS SHOULD CONTINUE WITH IT. THE T.B.A WAS OF NO BENIFIT TO ADRENALIN AND SO WE HAVE NO NEED TO STICK WITH AN ORGANISEATION WE PERSUME DEAD...... WE WILL STILL GREET THE GROUPS IN THE T.B.A AS USEUAL.... WELL ONLY ONE MORE FUCKIN EXAM TO GO ONE MORE.......... EXAMS ARE THE WORST THING YOU CAN GO THROUGH ALTHOUGH AFTER SPEAKING TO MOOKIE THE OTHER DAY I DONT KNOW WEATHER I BELEIVE THAT ANYMORE RIGHT NOW ON BEHALF OF MYSELF AND MAC ERROR ID JUST LIKE TO SAY A B I G F U C K O F F TO FAT PETER AND M. BUTLER F U C K O F F F U C K O F F F U C K O F F AND YES F U C K O F F........ AH THATS BETTER. WELL MAC ERROR IS SITTING AN EXAM AS I WRITE THIS SO I CAN'T GET HIM TO COME AROUND AND TYPE SOME SCROLLER. THE TIME IS NOW NINE MINUTES PAST THREE ON THE AFTERNOON OFF FRIDAY THE 18TH OF JUNE 1993. MAC ERROR FINISHES THE EXAM IN ABOUT 20 MINUTES I THINK. I SUPPOSE ILL HAVE TO GO ROUND TO HIS HOUSE IN HALF AN HOUR TO GET SOME TEXT OFF HIM. WELL THATS ABOUT IT FROM ME (DIVINE) BUT MAC ERROR WILL FOLLOW AND THEN MOOKIE WILL TAKE THE KEYS FOLLOWED BY THE ASSASSIN. IN FACT THEIR IS A LONG WAY TO GO BEFORE WE ARE THROUGH... HELLO PEOPLE. HMMM. MR. PD IS HERE, THAT'S RIGHT, MACHINE (MAC) ERROR MAKES AN APPEARANCE WHICH MAKES THIS MENU ONE OF THOSE 'MUST HAVE' MENUS! DIVINE (MAN WITH SILLY HAT) ASKED ME TO TYPE A FEW WORDS FOR THIS MENU SO I'M SITTING IN HIS ROOM TYPING AWAY ON HIS POT NOODLE COVERED ST. AS THE OLD FRUIT (DIVINE, MAN OF MANY SILLY HATS!) SAID BEFORE, I'M DOING MY EXAMS AT THE MOMENT WHICH MAKES MY LIFE QUITE LITERALLY A BITCH, MAYBE BECAUSE I'VE FAILED THEM ALL! IT'S AMAZING TO LEARN EXACTLY HOW MUCH WORK YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE BUT DIDN'T DURING YOUR EDUCATIONAL YEARS. NEVERMIND. DIVINE HAS GOT HIS BELOVED RAVE MUZAX ON AT THE MOMENT, I FEEL LIKE I'M IN A FACKING SPACESHIP! NOW FOR SOME INTERESTING INFO (NOT)... DID YOU KNOW THAT AT THIS PRECISE MOMENT, SUPERDRUG STORES ARE SELLING CONDOMS FOR HALF PRICE? SOUNDS GOOD DOESN'T IT? BUT HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT WHY THEY ARE SELLING THEM FOR HALF PRICE? RE-USED, THAT'S WHY. HOW ARE THE GOVERNMENT FIGHTING THE RECESSION? THEY HAVE STARTED A 'RECYCLE YOUR RUBBERS' CAMPAIGN. JOHN MAJOR'S HAD HIS WILLY IN YOUR POCKET! SORRY, I'M TALKING CRAP AGAIN (AND AGAIN AND AGAIN!) CHEERS FOR THE TINNY ROB (HE'S JUST DELIVERED A REFRESHING CAN OF WHITBREAD (NOWT TAKEN OUT!) TO ME CHEERS EVERYONE). DON'T FORGET, ADRENALIN MODULE DISKS 1 TO 8 ARE OUT NOW AND MOD DISK 9 WILL BE OUT IN A COUPLE OF DAYS. GET THEM OR BE A ONE LEGGED AFRICAN PIMPLE FACED GIT WITH NO TESTICALS! (SO THERE!) I THINK DIVINE (MAN OF STUPID HEAD GEAR) THINKS HE IS MORE OF A MAN THAN I AM AND WISHES TO BUTT IN ON MY CONVERSATION HERE SO I SEND MY APOLOGIES TO MY THOUSANDS OF FANS WORLDWIDE... DIVINE ON THE KEYBOARD... WELL IT LOOKS ALTHOUGH MAC ERROR HAS BEEN WATCHING THE SIMSONS AGAIN AND IS IN A COMMICAL MOOD (AT LEAST I CAN SPELL COMICAL! - MAC). HA HA HA MAC ERROR YOU ARE SO FUCKING AMUSING. I AM SITTING HERE LISTENING TO A FUCKIN SMART PIECE OF TECHNO MUSIC THAT MAC ERROR REFERS TO AS RAVE HA HA ANYWAY ABOUT MY HEAD GEAR... YOU DONT UNDERSTAND THE MUSIC MARK SO YOU CAN'T EXPECT TO UNDERSTAND THE FASHION.... EVERY TIME I TURN MY HEAD TOWARDS THE TV SCREEN I AM FACED WITH A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF HAIR... YES MAC ERROR IS GROWING LARGE AMOUNTS OF HAIR ON HIS FACE. AND NO ONE HAS TAUGHT HIM TO SHAVE... I WOULD BUT I CAN NOT BE FUCKED TO... WELL I HAVE MADE MY POINT SO I WILL HAND YOU BACK TO MAC ERROR... WHO IS NOW EXTREMLEY PISSED OFF THE CAN OF BITTER I GAVE HIM.... HELLO AGAIN... SORRY ABOUT THAT MINOR INTERRUPTION, I'VE MANAGED TO WIPE THAT HUGE AMOUNT OF SHIT OFF THE KEYBOARD NOW SO WE CAN GET ON WITH THE SCROLLY. DIVINE MENTIONED THAT HE CANNOT BE FUCKED. CORRECT. HIS WILLY IS TOO SMALL! (I TOLD YOU HE WOULD BE PISSED - DIVINE) ENOUGH! IN CASE ANY OF YOU ARE GETTING PICTURES IN YOUR HEADS OF ME AND DIVINE PUNCHING THE SHIT OUT OF EACH OTHER THEN DON'T WORRY, WE'RE NOT. I'M, PUNCHING THE SHIT OUT OF HIM! I THINK IT'S TIME I MOVED ON NOW. A LITTLE MESSAGE (NOT A SLAG) MUST GO OUT TO TRONIC OF TRONIC PDL WHOM I AM IN CONTACT WITH. THIS GUY REACENTLY RIPPED OUT THE SOURCE CODE FOR ADRENALIN MENU 34 AND USED IT AS AN INTRO ON HIS PD CATALOGUE LIST. HE DID CREDIT ADRENALIN FOR THE CODE AND MENTION WHERE HE RIPPED IT FROM BUT EVEN SO, WE AT ADRENALIN THINK THAT IS A LITTLE OUT OF ORDER AS THAT CODE WAS WRITTEN ESPECIALLY FOR US TO USE AND NO ONE ELSE. THE POINT I WANT TO MAKE IS THAT PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT US NOT PRODUCING ENOUGH MENUS BUT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT WHEN PEOPLE RIP OFF OUT STUFF? HOW CAN WE BE ONE OF THE BEST CREW AROUND IF OUR MENU SOURCE IS AVAILABLE FOR ANY ARSEHOLE TO PLAY AROUND WITH? THAT CODE BETTER NOT APPEAR ON YOUR CATALOGUE LIST JOHN AND IF WE FIND OUT YOU (OR ANYONE ELSE) IS SPREADING OUR SOURCE WITHOUT PERMISSION THEN THERE WILL BE TROUBLE FROM ADRENALIN U.K. (AND OUR FRIENDS). PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT A SLAG, WE ARE JUST LAYING DOWN SOME GROUND RULES. LET'S ALL WORK TOGETHER TO STOP THE ST SCENE DYING COMPLETELY OKAY? CHEERS. I HOPE YOU'RE NOT OFFENDED TRONIC. WELL, I'M OFF NOW, NEXT COMES MOOKIE OF ADRENALIN..... HI THERE EVERYONE !! MOOKIE HERE ON THE KEYS AND WHAT CAN I SAY BUT... LIFE'S A BITCH!! JUST RECENTLY I'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH A ROUGH PATCH. I'VE JUST BEEN MADE REDUNDANT YOU SEE. THAT' TWICE WITHIN SIX MONTHS, AND I'M STARTED TO GET PISSED OFF!! I MUST THANK SLASHER BOG FOR SENDING SOME ORIGINALS AND GENERALLY CHEERING ME UP RECENTLY!! SLASHER IS SUCH A NICE GUY, I WISH I HAD GOT IN TOUCH WITH HIM SOONER!! OH WELL SLASHER, AS YOU SAY... TAKE EVERYDAY AS IT COMES AND DON'T LET LIFE GET YOU DOWN. I GUESS THAT CRACKING MY FIRST ST GAME CHEERED ME UP A BIT, ALTHOUGH NOT BE ABLE TO LINK CIVILISATION IS A BIT OF A GIT 'COS IT WOULD HAVE BEEN REALLY NICE TO HAVE TWO LINK FILES INSTEAD OF OVER 100 FILES ON THESE DISKS!! DON'T EXPECT TO SEE ANYMORE CRACKS FROM ME 'COS THE CIVILISATION CRACK WAS A FLUKE REALLY. THE DOZY GITS AT MICROPROSE HAD LEFT THE LABELS TO THE GAME IN THE MAIN PROGRAM FILE. AFTER LOOKING A WHAT I FOUND THE INSTRUCTION JSR PROTECT AND AFTER A BIT OF CHECKING, I CONFIRMED MY HUNCH THAT THIS WAS JUMPING TO THE PROTECTION ROUTINE. I DISCUSSED THE BEST WAY OF CRACKING IT WITH MAXIMUM VELOCITY, I FAVOURED GOOD OLD NOP, BUT M.V. SUGGESTED USING RTS AND AS HE IS AN EXPERIENCED CRACKER, I DID HIS WAY. AFTER AN HOUR OF PLAY TESTING I KNEW THAT I HAD CRACKED IT SUCCESSFULLY. THE ONLY PROBLEM NOW, WAS THAT IT WAS BUGGED. I HAD TO WAIT FOR MICROPROSE TO FIX THE BUGS AND RETURN SLASHER'S ORIGINAL. A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER IT ARRIVED. THEY HAD REMOVED ALL THE LABELS, BUT 'COS I WROTE DOWN THE OP CODE, IT TOOK LESS THAN FIVE MINUTES TO CRACK!! IT TOOK AGES TO PACK THE THING THOUGH!! WELL, I SHALL LEAVE THIS SCROLLER WITH MY SUCCESS STORY... HOPEFULLY MY NEXT ONE WILL BE THAT I'VE GOT ANOTHER JOB. IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED THEN I WISH YOU LUCK!! I'LL NOW HAND YOU OVER TO MY GOOD FRIEND (NOT THAT GOOD ANTHRAX) THE ASSASSIN. THIS IS MOOKIE IN 1993 SIGNING OFF.... HELLO THERE EVERYONE!! YES... THE ASSASSIN IS BACK ONCE MORE WITH ANOTHER BIT OF SCROLLY TEXT... JUST BEFORE I START HOWEVER, I WOULD LIKE TO APOLOGISE TO MOOKIE FOR THE SLIGHT INTERFERENCE DURING HIS PHONE CALL THE OTHER NIGHT. IT'S O.K. FOR GIRLS TO INTERFERE WHEN LADS ARE TALKING ABOUT COMPUTERS BUT IF WE BUTT IN WHEN THE LASSES ARE DISCUSSING THE COLOUR OF THEIR NEW WALLPAPER THEN WE'RE FOR THE BLOODY HIGH JUMP. ANYWAY I'VE DEALT WITH THE PERSON RESPONSIBLE AND YOU'LL BE GLAD TO KNOW THAT AFTER VISITING HER IN THE INTENSIVE CARE WARD AT THE ROYAL INFIRMARY YESTERDAY WE'RE NOW BOTH FRIENDS AGAIN. ... ... ... WHICH BRINGS ME ON TO MY NEXT POINT ... ... ... MY LIFE HISTORY. BECAUSE I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING INTERESTING TO SAY AT THE MOMENT, I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO TELL YOU ABOUT MY LIFE WITH REGARDS TO COMPUTERS. IN THE EARLY DAYS I HAD A SPECTRUM 48K PLUS. OF COURSE, IN THOSE DAYS I WAS ONLY A TEA BOY AT THE BBC (OOPS SORRY!! MONTY PYTHON GETS EVERYWHERE THESE DAYS!!). ANYWAY, I GRADUALLY ADDED BITS AND BOBS TO THE SPECCY SUCH AS A LIGHT PEN (WOW!!), A MULTIPRINT AND OF COURSE MY TRUSTY MICRODRIVE. I EVEN HAD A MODEM BUT ONLY USED IT ONCE (ON A FRIEND'S PHONE OF COURSE!!). A YEAR OR TWO LATER I BOUGHT A SPECTRUM PLUS 3 WITH THE TOTALLY SHITE THREE INCH DISK DRIVE. BLANK DISKS COST ABOUT FOUR QUID AT THAT TIME SO NEEDLESS TO SAY I DIDN'T KEEP THE COMPUTER FOR VERY LONG!! I CONSIDER MY NEXT COURSE OF ACTION TO BE THE BEST MOVE I EVER MADE, SO READ ON AND SEE IF YOU AGREE... ... I WAS DOWN AT THE YOUTH CLUB ONE NIGHT PLAYING ON THE ACORN ELECTRONS WHEN ONE OF MY FRIENDS (HI SMOD!!) SET UP HIS 520 STFM AND STARTED TO PLAY. THE GAME WAS XENON AND I JUST STODD THERE WITH WIDE OPEN EYES AND AN EXPRESSION RESEMBLING THAT OF DELILAH THE DWARF STARING AT LINFORD CHRISTIE'S CROTCH. I MADE MY MIND UP THERE AND THEN THAT I WAS GOING TO GET AN ST, AND WOULD YOU BELIEVE IT, NEXT CHRISTMAS SANTA BROUGHT ME ONE!! I PLAYED THE SAME OLD GAMES FOR A WHILE AND GRADUALLY STARTED TO LOSE INTEREST AS MOST OF THE SOFTWARE THAT I HAD WAS UTTER CRAP. IN NOVEMBER 1991 I WENT TO WORK FOR A COMPANY WHERE I MET A GUY CALLED MARK. AT THAT TIME MARK OWNED AN ST, AN AMIGA, A BBC, AND MSX AND GOD KNOWS WHAT ELSE!! ANYWAY, HE PERSUADED ME TO GO TO A LOCAL COMPUTER CLUB AND THE FOLLOWING WEEK I TRUNDLES OFF DOWN TO SEE WHAT IT WAS ALL ABOUT. AFTER A FEW WEEKS I MET A GUY CALLED ANDY AT THE CLUB. HE SEEMED O.K. SO WE STARTED CHATTING AND SWAPPING STUFF, NEITHER OF US KNOWING THAT EACH OTHER WOULD EVENTUALLY BECOME BIG NAMES ON THE ST SCENE. ANDY WAS THEN IN A GROUP CALLED THE CRYPTIC CREW WHICH PRODUCED PD GAMES COMPILS AND ALSO RELEASED STUFF THAT ANDY HAD WRITTEN HIMSELF. AFTER SEEING THE CRYPTIC CREW DISKS, ME AND TWO FRIENDS FORMED A GROUP CALLED THE WIZARDS OF EARTHSEA. ONE OF THE MEMBERS (SMOD) WAS A GREAT FANTASY BOOK READER AND THIS IS WHRE THE GROUP NAME CAME FROM (APPARANTLY!!) MY HANDLE IN THE GROUP WAS PIGEON (PEOPLE WHO KNOW ME WILL KNOW WHY!!) AND THE OTHER MEMBER WAS CALLED MC CONFUSION. WE RELEASED ABOUT SEVEN DISKS FULL OF UTTER CRAP, PRODUCED A UTILITIES DISK UNDER THE NAME OF THE BOMB SQUAD AND THEN DECIDED TO SPLIT. BY THIS TIME ANDY FROM THE CLUB HAD JOINED A GROUP CALLED DARK FUTURE WHOSE MAIN MEMBER WAS THE BANSHEE. THEY STARTED TO PRODUCE MODS DISKS AND WERE ONE OF THE FIRST IF NOT THE FIRST GROUP TO DO SO. I GOT TO KNOW THE BANSHEE AND SOON JOINED THE GROUP UNDER THE NAME OF THE CRYPT STALKER. WE PRODUCED ABOUT FIFTY MODS DISK AND I THINK MAYBE EVEN SOME MORE PD GAMES COMPILS. THE GROUP SPLIT A FEW MONTHS LATER AFTER THE BANSHEE LET TOO MANY MEMBERS INTO THE GROUP AND ALL THE ORIGINAL GROUP MEMBERS LOST INTEREST. I CONTINUED THE GROUP ON MY OWN AND PRODUCED A FURTHER THIRTEEN MODS DISKS BUT FINISHED WHEN MY SUPPLY OF NEW MODS DRIED UP. BY THIS TIME A NEW MODS GROUP HAD BEEN FORMED CALLED NEON LIGHTS. IT CONSISTED OF THE THREE ORIGINAL MEMBERS OF DARK FUTURE... THE BANSHEE, FLAV, AND THE CAFFEINE KID. THE CAFFEINE KID WAS ANDY FROM THE CLUB AND ALTHOUGH HE HAD ALWAYS BEEN CALLED TCK, IT WASN'T UNTIL NOW THAT PEOPLE OUTSIDE HIS OWN TOWN AND EVEN HIS OWN COUNTRY HAD HEARD OF HIM. WHILST ALL THIS WAS GOING ON I HAD BEEN ASKED TO JOIN A GROUP CALLED OUT OF ORDER. EVERYTHING WAS GOING FINE BETWEEN MYSELF AND THE HEAD OF THE GROUP (ICE) UNTIL TWO MEMBERS LEFT AND SOME OTHER GUYS JOINED. ONE OF THE NEW MEMBERS WAS SONIC. HE STARTED SLAGGING ME OFF AND AFTER A WHILE ICE SUDDENLY STOPPED WRITING. AT ABOUT THE SAME TIME, THE BANSHEE OF NEON LIGHTS LEFT THE GROUP CLAIMING THAT HE DIDN'T WANT TO BE PART OF A GROUP THAT PRODUCED SHITTY LITTLE MODS DISKS THAT NO ONE WANTS (QUOTE). TWO OTHER MEMBERS JOINED NEON LIGHTS (THE SLAYER AND ZODAK), AND THE BANSHEE JOINED OUT OF ORDER. A FEW WEEKS LATER I WAS ASKED BY MOOKIE IF I WANTED TO JOIN ADRENALIN U.K. AND SINCE THEN I'VE NEVER LOOKED BACK!! OUT OF ORDER ARE APPARANTLY DEAD NOW, WHICH IN MY OPINION IS GOOD 'COS THE SCENE DOESN'T NEED A BUNCH OF LAMERS LIKE THEM. AS FAR AS I KNOW, NEON LIGHTS ARE STILL GOING UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF FLAV. THE CAFFEINE KID LOST INTEREST IN THE ST SCENE AND BOUGHT AN AMIGA. HE HAS STILL GOT HIS ST BUT IS HOPING TO SELL IT SOON. AS FOR THE OTHER GUYS MENTIONED ... ... SMOD IS SELLING HIS ST AND GETTING AN AMIGA, M.C. CONFUSION IS SELLING HIS ST AND GETTING A PC, AND MARK (THE MAFIA) HAS SOLD ALL HIS OTHER COMPUTERS AND BOUGHT A PC. MOST OF YOU WILL KNOW THAT I TOO HAVE GONE AND BOUGHT AN AMIGA AND I AM ONLY USING MY ST FOR COPYING AND PLAYING THE ODD CLASSIC GAME. THE IRONIC THING IS HOEVER, I'VE NOW GONE AND BOUGHT ANOTHER SPECTRUM!! YES, I PAID FIFTEEN QUID FOR A SPECTRUM 128K THE OTHER WEEK AND I AM NOW IN THE PROCESS OF COLLECTING SOME OF THE CLASSIC GAMES THAT I USED TO OWN... ... GAMES SUCH AS TARGET RENEGADE, AUF WIEDERSEHEN MONTY, MIKIE, HYPERSPORTS ETC.. ETC.. I'LL LEAVE ALL YOU EX-SPECCY OWNERS CRYING INTO YOUR TISSUES!! OH WELL, I THINK I'LL LEAVE IT THERE FOR NOW. I HOPE YOU FOUND ALL THIS STUFF INTERESTING AND IF YOU DIDN'T THEN YOU ARE A SAD LAMER WHO IS ONLY ON THE ST SCENE TO GET WHAT YOU CAN OUT OF THE PEOPLE AT THE TOP... ... THE SORT OF PERSON WHO DOESN'T COPY DEMOS OR DISK MAGS SIMPLY BECASUE THEY'RE NOT THE LATEST GAME WHICH IS PAKCED FOUR BYTES SMALLER THAN YOU MATES VERSION. O.K. THEN, THAT'S DEFINITELY IT NOW... AND REMEMBER... DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AND BUY A SECONDHAND SPECCY!!! THANKYOU FOR THAT MR. ASSASSIN. MAC ERROR BACK AGAIN TO GIVE YOU A QUICK CREDITS RUNDOWN BEFORE WE DO ONE... CODE BY... SPACEMAN SPIFF OF ADRENALIN, SOME CRACKING AND PACKING BY MOOKIE OF ADRENALIN, DISK AND INTRO COMPILED BY DIVINE AND MAC ERROR OF ADRENALIN U.K. I DON'T KNOW WHO DID THE PICCY SO THAT'S ALL REALLY. I SUPPOSE YOU WANT A GREETS LIST RIGHT? SORRY BUT WE ARE COMPILING A NEW OFFICIAL GREETS LIST AS THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME CONFUSION OVER GREETINGS AT THE MOMENT. ALL I CAN SAY IS HELLO TO ALL THE USUAL DUDES AND LOOKOUT FOR AN OFFICIAL GREETINGS LIST ON AN ADRENALIN MENU SOON. I'M OFF NOW COZ IT'S GETTING DARK AND DIVINE IS TOO POOR TO BUY A LIGHTBULB SO I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING! STAY COOL, LIFE'S A FOSSIL FUEL! (SORRY WIZPLOP!) SEEYAR! ADRENALIN U.K. JUNE '93. WREEP!

THIS GUY REACENTLY RIPPED OUT THE SOURCE CODE FOR ADRENALIN MENU 34 AND USED IT AS AN INTRO ON HIS PD CATALOGUE LIST. HE DID CREDIT ADRENALIN FOR THE CODE AND MENTION WHERE HE RIPPED IT FROM BUT EVEN SO, WE AT ADRENALIN THINK THAT IS A LITTLE OUT OF ORDER AS THAT CODE WAS WRITTEN ESPECIALLY FOR US TO USE AND NO ONE ELSE. THE POINT I WANT TO MAKE IS THAT PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT US NOT PRODUCING ENOUGH MENUS BUT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT WHEN PEOPLE RIP OFF OUT STUFF? HOW CAN WE BE ONE OF THE BEST CREW AROUND IF OUR MENU SOURCE IS AVAILABLE FOR ANY ARSEHOLE TO PLAY AROUND WITH? THAT CODE BETTER NOT APPEAR ON YOUR CATALOGUE LIST JOHN AND IF WE FIND OUT YOU (OR ANYONE ELSE) IS SPREADING OUR SOURCE WITHOUT PERMISSION THEN THERE WILL BE TROUBLE FROM ADRENALIN U.K. (AND OUR FRIENDS).

DON'T EXPECT TO SEE ANYMORE CRACKS FROM ME 'COS THE CIVILISATION CRACK WAS A FLUKE REALLY. THE DOZY GITS AT MICROPROSE HAD LEFT THE LABELS TO THE GAME IN THE MAIN PROGRAM FILE.

ANYWAY I'VE DEALT WITH THE PERSON RESPONSIBLE AND YOU'LL BE GLAD TO KNOW THAT AFTER VISITING HER IN THE INTENSIVE CARE WARD AT THE ROYAL INFIRMARY YESTERDAY WE'RE NOW BOTH FRIENDS AGAIN. ... ... ... WHICH BRINGS ME ON TO MY NEXT POINT ... ... ... MY LIFE HISTORY. BECAUSE I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING INTERESTING TO SAY AT THE MOMENT, I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO TELL YOU ABOUT MY LIFE WITH REGARDS TO COMPUTERS. IN THE EARLY DAYS I HAD A SPECTRUM 48K PLUS. OF COURSE, IN THOSE DAYS I WAS ONLY A TEA BOY AT THE BBC (OOPS SORRY!! MONTY PYTHON GETS EVERYWHERE THESE DAYS!!). ANYWAY, I GRADUALLY ADDED BITS AND BOBS TO THE SPECCY SUCH AS A LIGHT PEN (WOW!!), A MULTIPRINT AND OF COURSE MY TRUSTY MICRODRIVE. I EVEN HAD A MODEM BUT ONLY USED IT ONCE (ON A FRIEND'S PHONE OF COURSE!!). A YEAR OR TWO LATER I BOUGHT A SPECTRUM PLUS 3 WITH THE TOTALLY SHITE THREE INCH DISK DRIVE. BLANK DISKS COST ABOUT FOUR QUID AT THAT TIME SO NEEDLESS TO SAY I DIDN'T KEEP THE COMPUTER FOR VERY LONG!! I CONSIDER MY NEXT COURSE OF ACTION TO BE THE BEST MOVE I EVER MADE, SO READ ON AND SEE IF YOU AGREE... ... I WAS DOWN AT THE YOUTH CLUB ONE NIGHT PLAYING ON THE ACORN ELECTRONS WHEN ONE OF MY FRIENDS (HI SMOD!!) SET UP HIS 520 STFM AND STARTED TO PLAY. THE GAME WAS XENON AND I JUST STODD THERE WITH WIDE OPEN EYES AND AN EXPRESSION RESEMBLING THAT OF DELILAH THE DWARF STARING AT LINFORD CHRISTIE'S CROTCH. I MADE MY MIND UP THERE AND THEN THAT I WAS GOING TO GET AN ST, AND WOULD YOU BELIEVE IT, NEXT CHRISTMAS SANTA BROUGHT ME ONE!! I PLAYED THE SAME OLD GAMES FOR A WHILE AND GRADUALLY STARTED TO LOSE INTEREST AS MOST OF THE SOFTWARE THAT I HAD WAS UTTER CRAP. IN NOVEMBER 1991 I WENT TO WORK FOR A COMPANY WHERE I MET A GUY CALLED MARK. AT THAT TIME MARK OWNED AN ST, AN AMIGA, A BBC, AND MSX AND GOD KNOWS WHAT ELSE!! ANYWAY, HE PERSUADED ME TO GO TO A LOCAL COMPUTER CLUB AND THE FOLLOWING WEEK I TRUNDLES OFF DOWN TO SEE WHAT IT WAS ALL ABOUT. AFTER A FEW WEEKS I MET A GUY CALLED ANDY AT THE CLUB. HE SEEMED O.K. SO WE STARTED CHATTING AND SWAPPING STUFF, NEITHER OF US KNOWING THAT EACH OTHER WOULD EVENTUALLY BECOME BIG NAMES ON THE ST SCENE. ANDY WAS THEN IN A GROUP CALLED THE CRYPTIC CREW WHICH PRODUCED PD GAMES COMPILS AND ALSO RELEASED STUFF THAT ANDY HAD WRITTEN HIMSELF. AFTER SEEING THE CRYPTIC CREW DISKS, ME AND TWO FRIENDS FORMED A GROUP CALLED THE WIZARDS OF EARTHSEA. ONE OF THE MEMBERS (SMOD) WAS A GREAT FANTASY BOOK READER AND THIS IS WHRE THE GROUP NAME CAME FROM (APPARANTLY!!) MY HANDLE IN THE GROUP WAS PIGEON (PEOPLE WHO KNOW ME WILL KNOW WHY!!) AND THE OTHER MEMBER WAS CALLED MC CONFUSION. WE RELEASED ABOUT SEVEN DISKS FULL OF UTTER CRAP, PRODUCED A UTILITIES DISK UNDER THE NAME OF THE BOMB SQUAD AND THEN DECIDED TO SPLIT. BY THIS TIME ANDY FROM THE CLUB HAD JOINED A GROUP CALLED DARK FUTURE WHOSE MAIN MEMBER WAS THE BANSHEE. THEY STARTED TO PRODUCE MODS DISKS AND WERE ONE OF THE FIRST IF NOT THE FIRST GROUP TO DO SO. I GOT TO KNOW THE BANSHEE AND SOON JOINED THE GROUP UNDER THE NAME OF THE CRYPT STALKER. WE PRODUCED ABOUT FIFTY MODS DISK AND I THINK MAYBE EVEN SOME MORE PD GAMES COMPILS. THE GROUP SPLIT A FEW MONTHS LATER AFTER THE BANSHEE LET TOO MANY MEMBERS INTO THE GROUP AND ALL THE ORIGINAL GROUP MEMBERS LOST INTEREST. I CONTINUED THE GROUP ON MY OWN AND PRODUCED A FURTHER THIRTEEN MODS DISKS BUT FINISHED WHEN MY SUPPLY OF NEW MODS DRIED UP. BY THIS TIME A NEW MODS GROUP HAD BEEN FORMED CALLED NEON LIGHTS. IT CONSISTED OF THE THREE ORIGINAL MEMBERS OF DARK FUTURE... THE BANSHEE, FLAV, AND THE CAFFEINE KID. THE CAFFEINE KID WAS ANDY FROM THE CLUB AND ALTHOUGH HE HAD ALWAYS BEEN CALLED TCK, IT WASN'T UNTIL NOW THAT PEOPLE OUTSIDE HIS OWN TOWN AND EVEN HIS OWN COUNTRY HAD HEARD OF HIM. WHILST ALL THIS WAS GOING ON I HAD BEEN ASKED TO JOIN A GROUP CALLED OUT OF ORDER. EVERYTHING WAS GOING FINE BETWEEN MYSELF AND THE HEAD OF THE GROUP (ICE) UNTIL TWO MEMBERS LEFT AND SOME OTHER GUYS JOINED. ONE OF THE NEW MEMBERS WAS SONIC. HE STARTED SLAGGING ME OFF AND AFTER A WHILE ICE SUDDENLY STOPPED WRITING. AT ABOUT THE SAME TIME, THE BANSHEE OF NEON LIGHTS LEFT THE GROUP CLAIMING THAT HE DIDN'T WANT TO BE PART OF A GROUP THAT PRODUCED SHITTY LITTLE MODS DISKS THAT NO ONE WANTS (QUOTE). TWO OTHER MEMBERS JOINED NEON LIGHTS (THE SLAYER AND ZODAK), AND THE BANSHEE JOINED OUT OF ORDER. A FEW WEEKS LATER I WAS ASKED BY MOOKIE IF I WANTED TO JOIN ADRENALIN U.K. AND SINCE THEN I'VE NEVER LOOKED BACK!! OUT OF ORDER ARE APPARANTLY DEAD NOW, WHICH IN MY OPINION IS GOOD 'COS THE SCENE DOESN'T NEED A BUNCH OF LAMERS LIKE THEM. AS FAR AS I KNOW, NEON LIGHTS ARE STILL GOING UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF FLAV. THE CAFFEINE KID LOST INTEREST IN THE ST SCENE AND BOUGHT AN AMIGA. HE HAS STILL GOT HIS ST BUT IS HOPING TO SELL IT SOON. AS FOR THE OTHER GUYS MENTIONED ... ... SMOD IS SELLING HIS ST AND GETTING AN AMIGA, M.C. CONFUSION IS SELLING HIS ST AND GETTING A PC, AND MARK (THE MAFIA) HAS SOLD ALL HIS OTHER COMPUTERS AND BOUGHT A PC. MOST OF YOU WILL KNOW THAT I TOO HAVE GONE AND BOUGHT AN AMIGA AND I AM ONLY USING MY ST FOR COPYING AND PLAYING THE ODD CLASSIC GAME. THE IRONIC THING IS HOEVER, I'VE NOW GONE AND BOUGHT ANOTHER SPECTRUM!! YES, I PAID FIFTEEN QUID FOR A SPECTRUM 128K THE OTHER WEEK AND I AM NOW IN THE PROCESS OF COLLECTING SOME OF THE CLASSIC GAMES THAT I USED TO OWN... ... GAMES SUCH AS TARGET RENEGADE, AUF WIEDERSEHEN MONTY, MIKIE, HYPERSPORTS ETC.. ETC.. I'LL LEAVE ALL YOU EX-SPECCY OWNERS CRYING INTO YOUR TISSUES!! OH WELL, I THINK I'LL LEAVE IT THERE FOR NOW. I HOPE YOU FOUND ALL THIS STUFF INTERESTING AND IF YOU DIDN'T THEN YOU ARE A SAD LAMER WHO IS ONLY ON THE ST SCENE TO GET WHAT YOU CAN OUT OF THE PEOPLE AT THE TOP... ... THE SORT OF PERSON WHO DOESN'T COPY DEMOS OR DISK MAGS SIMPLY BECASUE THEY'RE NOT THE LATEST GAME WHICH IS PAKCED FOUR BYTES SMALLER THAN YOU MATES VERSION. O.K. THEN, THAT'S DEFINITELY IT NOW... AND REMEMBER... DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AND BUY A SECONDHAND SPECCY!!! THANKYOU FOR THAT MR. ASSASSIN. MAC ERROR BACK AGAIN TO GIVE YOU A QUICK CREDITS RUNDOWN BEFORE WE DO ONE... CODE BY... SPACEMAN SPIFF OF ADRENALIN, SOME CRACKING AND PACKING BY MOOKIE OF ADRENALIN, DISK AND INTRO COMPILED BY DIVINE AND MAC ERROR OF ADRENALIN U.K. I DON'T KNOW WHO DID THE PICCY SO THAT'S ALL REALLY. I SUPPOSE YOU WANT A GREETS LIST RIGHT? SORRY BUT WE ARE COMPILING A NEW OFFICIAL GREETS LIST AS THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME CONFUSION OVER GREETINGS AT THE MOMENT. ALL I CAN SAY IS HELLO TO ALL THE USUAL DUDES AND LOOKOUT FOR AN OFFICIAL GREETINGS LIST ON AN ADRENALIN MENU SOON.
