And I still do it for the same reasons as the last issue. I have again produced a magazine with Ascii-News, Facts and Lists. Since we have a scene out there with about 450 more or less active Ascii-artists (28 new since last issue the 12/12'95), and a lot bigger crowd with fans and supporters of the Ascii, I thought that it was time to define this subject, and bring you all a hopefully quite true story about what really went on during these years when it all happened. Here you could read about almost EVERYTHING that has something to do with Ascii. As someone told me, this aint a Gazette, it's a Dictionary for the Artist of Today! Do click your way through lists over the active artists of today and see who joined which group the latests days. Now with this new issue it all is a bit updated too, so hopefully even more entertaining this time! This is, and will always be really stunning experience, thats for sure. Special subjects for this issue are (together with many others) E-Mail, Boards, Release-Lists, and many explenations about what really happened to the groups that dissapeared. This production is absolutly not only for the ones involved in this wonderful scene. Quite the contrary, since most of the teaching parts of Ascii-Gazette are formed to get everones attention. A Beginners Guide, as well as the Professionals Dictionary! How to read this? Well, use your keyboard, or the arrows in the menu. First Page ^ Previous Page < · > Next Page v Last Page And the following buttons are used for: Menu: Got back to the Menu Note: Switch on/off the Music Exit: Exit Ascii-Gazette Search: Go to the requested Page I used a program called 'Magnum' to put together this production. Magnum is a program that I got without a doc, and since there aint no © info in the code of it, I could only thank the author, whoever it may be. About the comments that came when people discovered that I used this program, I have to say: I'm a very demanding person, I like to do things, I like to do them correct, and quite effective. I couldn't impossibly finish this project and the have to wait 5 mounths for a coder to make a special coded version of the Ascii-Gazette. That's why I choose the easy and simple way, using a program that some would call 'lame' like this one. But, I'm terribly sorry if this is the way you feel about it, but in that case don't even bother to execute the porgram, read the text-version of the Gazette instead. When I found this program I saw it as the best alternative, and though I probably shouldn't have done the same thing today, I'm not THAT disappointed with what it does. Think again, do you really dissaprove it THAT much? It's quite descrete and displays the ascii fast and easy, and it's really simple for me to use when I make the Gazette, so I can't say I concider it as THAT lame. I'd like to appoligize for my english grammar that probably is terrible bad at a couple of places, and for my lousy Iff that I used in the intro pictures and in the menu. Otherwise, the credits for this production would be like this; Facts and Text by: [ Xcluziwe / Sos ] Iff-Pictures by: [ Xcluziwe / Sos ] [ WGJR / Eup ] Module by: [ Laimbrain / Grt ] Additional Facts: [ Fatal / E^d ] [ Desert / Dzn ] [ Exocet / Al ] [ Drakar / At! ] [ Relief / -T ] [ Trivial / Ds! ] [ Cesium / Session ] [ Lord / Absolute ] [ Princip / Qtx ] Xcluziwe logo: [ Stylez / C! ] And other artists in the different parts. Most of them credited at next to their logo. Anyone forgotten? Hope not, sorry, in case! And please! DO NOT forget that also the Menu-Pages are two, so you could push the [>]-arrow there too, to list the second page of the menu. If you must/like to get in touch with me, do reach me at most of Swedens major Elite-Bbs's, or at the very exclusive Ascii-Gazette Contact Head- Quarter, Fatal's very recently opened board, Another Step. The Number is +46-21-330975, and do visit it, as it's swedens first 100% Ascii-Board, and this is where you find all the swedish artists. Hope you'll enjoy this, and perhaps even learn a bit? And to all the facts that may not be true, I'd really like to correct them, get in touch with me for updates, so that the next (if there ever will be any?) issue will bring the very correct facts. / Signed the Editor, Xcluziwe · xCz Last update made some minutes before release, 03h50m Am the 21/01 - 1996. The Real Background - -÷-------------------÷- - In last issue we gave you a story about the background of the ascii-scene that was quite made on unbased facts. But now, today we have here, with the facts directly from Exocet, a much more probably story about how it all begun. Many thanks to Exocet who gave these facts exclusive to A.g. The very first ascii-crew was Da Hood founded by a guy called Mofo. I guess, nobody remembers them nowadays. Next were Unreal, they had these famous ascii-conferences on boards like House of Pain and the Ghetto. G^style came up shortly after that the next crew to emerge was the group of your humble story - teller: Arclite :). After Unreal had died, Skin and Amblin founded a new group by the name of Dezign which seems to be regret- tably dead by now. When G^style had kicked the bucket , some of their members said good-bye or joined rather new groups like UpperClass or Art, one of them joined us. So, that's it, as far as i recall it, hope it was a help. / Exocet They sure was a great help! I'm really deeply grateful for information like this. If you could support A.g. with facts simular to this, do not hesitate to contact Xcluziwe today. Just a short notice, since Desert recently has been active releasing under the Dezign label, I still concider Dezign as an alive group, but do correct me if I'm wrong. And, please help me to fill in who all the members in Da Hood has been through times, would be appriciated. Do read more about this at the 'About Dezign'-part. Ascii-Group HeadQuarters - -÷------------------------÷- - Here they are, all the boards that have been more or less involved with all the ascii-crews through the years. Boards mentioned with ( ) are not hq's, only boards where you could meet users from the groups. And the sign - declares that I really don't know who the sysop is or if that group really had any own headquarters.

Artists with E-Mail-adresses - -÷--------------------------÷- Theese are the artists who have been smart enough to get their own e-mail- adresses, and are available on different amiga channels on the IRC etc. Many thanks to Cesium/Session and Lord/Absolute who made the original E-mail lists where I found these artists. Sorry that my own adress aint there, but I havn't got it yet, but it's just a matter of hours before I join this list.

Because there must be more artists out there with their very own adresses? Right? All the Releases - -÷----------------÷- - A pretty common answer to the question if a artist reads all the coll- ections that are released is probably 'No there are way to many to notice them all'. Here have I tried to complish a list of all collections that came to Sweden (and that ought to be atleast about 97%) during the period since the latest Ascii Gazette. And how many are they then? The first Gazette was released the 12/12 -1995? Well, the ones I've stored on my harddrive aint less than 150 collections! And the last update was made just some hour before this Gazette was released. Note that Jedi Arts won't use any abbrevation so their two collections are on different places, and that the 7 House Of Style-releases are originally two but splitted into stylish 2 and 5 parts.

Style - 1 ---- Total Group Releases = 85 Artists with Release-Lists - -÷--------------------------÷- - A list of most of the artists who in their latest works have included a release-list. So, here they are, the REALLY active ones. Now, I know many have very special thoughts about Quality and Quantity, but you all gotto admit that activity sure is fun. And all Quantity DON'T have to be of less good Quality. The artists who now follows are sure also probably some of the absolute most active, you'll see that for yourself when you see their amount of releases. If I've forgot some productive oldskooler/newbie who should be here then feel free (as always) to update me with the latests facts. And why is then the design of these lists different? Well, all the lists are snapped from the artists lastest collection, and in some cases a bit edited to be as fresh as possible (sorry for that guys!) but kept in their original style to please (?) the author. Do notice that this list is very limited, I only included the artists from who I recently had got a collection with any release-facts within. These are the artists I found lists from in pretty recent released collections; Handle Tag Group Land Amount Size ------ --- ----- ---- ------ ---- 2Fast - 2F - Contra - Ger - 33 - NoIdea!

Rip- ping has been a part of the Ascii-scene for a long time now. People being accused for rip's in collections is something that aint to uncommon in collections from years ago, and recently happened 'quarrels'. To describe this as simple as possibly, I choosed to include two of all thee quarrels trough times, I have NOTHING against the artists involved, and the reason I choosed these two was only a coincident. The first one is from an 'oldskool' colly by 911, where he accuses Exocet. | |oNE oF tHE wORST tHiNGS| | | |tHAT cOULD hAPPEN tO aN| | | |aSCii-aRTiST iS rIPPiNG| | | | - - - - - - - - - - - | | | |LoOK aT mY oLD "A.F.L."| | | |dESCRiPTiON, aND fUKKiN| | | |-EXOCET's nEW "aRCLITE"| | | |LoGO!! : rEALLY sTRANGE| | | |tHAT a dUTCH aND a gER-| | | |mAN cAN hAVE eXACTLY dA| | | |sAME iDEAS!.. | | | | _||_ | | | | \ / | | | ___________|___________\/__________|____________ | | | | | | | -O-______-_____________ - - -- --- ----O- | | | | | \_ _ \\_ ____/ /__ | | | | | :/ < \ .__) _/ \ : | | | | / . \ | \ V \ : | | | | \____|__ /__· /_______ /\ : | | | | :\___\\_\/\__\/\_______\/ / | | | | | -O--------\/---\/--------\/--------<-911'>O- | | | |________________________________________________| | | | | | | | rELEASED iN | | | | | | | | "-G'CONS.TXT" | | | | | | | | bY (911/G^S!) | | | ___________|_______________________|____________ | | | | | | | O--_______-_____: - -----------------------O | | | | |·_\___ ¬\ |____ | | | | | :/ ¬ \ | ¬\ | | | | | / | \ | \ | | | | | \ ___|_____/_______ /\ | | | | | :\/\__\_____\_______\/ / | | | | | O-\/÷e÷--------------\/--------------------O | | | |________________________________________________| | | | | | | | rELEASED iN | | | | | | | | "AL-PHANT.-E-" | | | | | | | | bY [eXOCET/AL] | | | | | | | | - - - - - - - - - - - | | | | | | | |sO!, mR.eXOCET! wHAT dO| | | |yA hAVE tO sAY yOURSELF| | | |aBOUT tHiS "sTRANGE cO-| | | |iNCiDENCE" ????????????| | | |sTAY wiTH yER hANDS oFF| | | |mY sTYLE yOU m.F!, oR i| | | |wiLL pERSONALLy cOME tO| | | |GERM-aNY aND bASH tHOSE| | | |pUNTOGEN oF yOURS iN 12| | | |piECES! i hAVE sPOKEN!!| | As you could see, quarrles have always been a sad part of the ascii-scene, a more recent, acctually pretty noticed, quarrel was between Desoto and Czar, or more likely between Fatal and Czar, since fatal were the one who spoke for desoto. Czar had ripped Desotos dot-characters, and Fatal proved this in a textfile where he compaired the logos in a way which looks like this; ____________________________________ ____________________________________ | | | | | | | ......:::::::· | ......:::::· | | ·:::::::::::·····::· | ·:::::::::·····::· | | ·: ::: . | ·: ::: | | ... .:::::. .:: .:: | _ .:: | | ::: :· ·:: ::·.::· | __/\ \ ::·_ __ | | :· ::. .:: ::: :: | ___/__ _ ::: _ __ | | · :::::::· ::: ·::. | ·:\ \ ::: | | ····· .::: ·· | \ .::: | | :.. .::::..::::. | .::::..::::. | | ··::.. :::::····:::· | ___ _ :::::····:::·_ | | ·· · | ··· · | | | | |____________________________________|____________________________________| If all people who have 'borrowed' others ascii should be mentioned here, a way to long and sad list would appear. But this is something that noones likes, and I really hope that it is something that will disapear in the future. There is many types of 'ripping' too. These are four of the ways to rip; 1. To 'snap' out a part/whole logo from someone elses works. 2. To 'snap' out characters from someones else so you could write whatever you like with the other ones style. 3. To take a single/some few characters from someone else and use them together with your ordinary style. The most common way of ripping. 4. To look at someone elses art and try to/succeed with a freehand copy of it just because you thought it looked nice. The most harmless way. Coop-Collections - -÷-------------÷- - This is something that recently have been popular. Also some old legends like Skin and Amblin used this way to present their art. Coop is the same as Coperative, and the idea is simple enough to release your art together with a another artists creations, that results in a for the reader a more variating collection, and it increases the size. Famous Coop-collections; Skin & Amblin Fatal & Chrombacher And many, many more, but to mention one of them would demanding to mention so many more, so I could only adivce you to check out the rest of them. And coop-collections seems like something that will be really popular in the future too. Loads of projects are on the scetchboard, and many of them seems to prove that the future will bring many good coop-releases. Ascii-Magzines - -÷--------------÷- - Is something that defintly seems to be really popular right now. After the great success of the first real Ascii-magazine, the ArtMag produced by RoadHogz (who they are? see the RoadHogz-part) suddenly the whole scene went crazy and started to support and follow the evolution of the ascii-scene. ArtMag was created using amiga-guide and included lists over the latest mounths released collections and a special vote-panel where the best artist and the best ascii-group was voted. The votes were made with simple messages and text-files to the editors, and therefor not what I'd call the 100% reliable thruth. But there was a /X-door-project going on and ArtMag hoped to be able to use Flite's 'ArtChart-door' as soon as possible. What was RoadHogz created for then? And what did they do if the liked ascii but didn't produce any themselves? The answer were that they concisted of some pc-dudes who leeched the collections and spread them through their pc's all over europe. And they also added a special tag at the bottom of every collections which proved that the collection had been spread by a RoadHogger. It looked like this; [%::::::::::::%] rOadhOgged [%::::::::::::%] This passage through a pc made some chars in the collections to change. Acctually quite alot, just look at this; Original: Roadhogged: ¦ ------------> ª ¬ ------------> ¼ ¯ ------------> » · ------------> Ä ------------> ä ------------> S ö ------------> ÷ í ------------> ø ì ------------> ¡ ------------> í ¤ ------------> ñ That makes quite a difference, take a look at this ascii by DeathLord, and how it looks like when Roadhogged; Original: Roadhogged: . . . . ¯| |||/ »| |||/ | | +\_ | | +\_ _j .(__o/ _j .(__o/ |_ ¦¯ ¯¯\ |_ ª» »»\ |\\l l\_)_ |\\l l\_)_ | \(____¯__ ) | \(____»__ ) |{_¯ _}|| ¦ |{_» _}|| ª `-| | || l_ `-| | || l_ /¯dL! ¯\ll___) /»dL! »\ll___) There came a converter from Count Zero ( rooDe-Hog 1.0 ), but some chars became single spaces, and that's impossible for every converter to fix. So everything wasn't as pleasing as it could have been. Phase and Vinzi didn't at all like the pc-transport of the collections and created a group called A4 (Ascii Artists Against Artmag). Also the general reaction of the trade with pc's were very bad, but the scene seemed to like the idea of a ascii-mag though, and the general advice was for RoadHogz to quit the trade but to keep their mag. ArtMag dissapeared with Zen as he moved to Botswana (see the RoadHogz-part) and the new main-editor became Satans Fire. Now, this was where the mag started to dissapear. It got heavely delayed and when it came were it fill- ed with really stupid mistakes that made the main impression really nega- tive. Every since that latest double-issue hasn't anything at all been heard from RDZ and I think the mag is delayed with about 4 mounths by now. Well, read more about this matter in the RoadHogz-part, and now to what else is coming up in the ascii-magazine business. The rumors about Mark Ryder's ascii-magazine has been quite well-spread by now, and Mark Ryder himself tells us that it'll be out sometime after he has finished his military service later this year. But no further comments about what it'll include and how it'll look. But it'll be a amiga-guide- project. I've also heard about another big project that is on the scetch-board, ready to get released soon, anyway this winter/spring. It'll be a special- coded ascii-magazine with loads of feautures and many wellknown editors. But as it's really classified I can't tell you any more. This magazine, Ascii-Gazette, has rechieved many positive reactions (not only positive ones though) and I'm pleased to see that all my work wasn't just thrown away. This issue, Number 2, will perhaps/probably be the last one, the requirements I had to continue with the Gazette-project was that I got help from persons, and that I developed new parts of it as AsciiCollection-reviews, Previews, Interviews, Group-pages, Advertisments and much more. I now has gotten a new offer to join a different magazine, which I'm very interested in. And I will perhaps also make some ascii- pages in the ST-magazine that will be reborn soon. That is what has made me change my mind about this magazine, and that is perhaps also the reasons that I abandon it after this issue. But we never know for sure, do we? And I havn't made up my mind to 100% percent yet... RoadHogz - -÷--------÷- - Was created by Zen (known as =Zen=, he quitted the scene after his first and last collection and moved to Botswana) and made for the reason to spread collections all over Europe and to create the worlds first ascii- magazine, called ArtMag. But members who only traded ascii on Pc's based really big problems (see the Ascii-Magazines part) and the earlier so positive reaction to RoadHogz became reversed as they acctually did destory large parts of several collections. The complete memberlist of today would look like this; Zen - Ascii: Independant - Editor: Ex. - Tag: =Z= - Amiga Satans Fire - Ascii: Caustic Style - Editor: Main. - Tag: sF! - Amiga/Pc SalOne - Ascii: Twisted - Trader: Yes - Tag: sAL1 - Amiga Diablo - Ascii: None Trader: Yes - Tag: - - Pc Mario - Ascii: None Trader: Yes - Tag: - - Amiga Twister - Ascii: None Trader: Yes - Tag: - - Amiga Hybrid - Ascii: None Trader: Yes - Tag: - - Pc Jopiter - Ascii: None Trader: Yes - Tag: - - Pc Inferno - Ascii: Independant Trader: Yes - Tag: IfN - Pc The Doctor - Ascii: None Trader: Yes - Tag: - - Pc Zaphod - Ascii: Caustic Style Trader: Yes - Tag: zd! - Pc As you see are many pc-owners, and thats where the problem with RoadHogz lies. They had searched for the coder of the Pc-asciieditor they used to ask him if he could fix the converting-problems, but he refused. So, as it seems now could we only hope that RoadHogz will continue to release the ArtMag (it sure is a great idea, and now is the ArtChart finished too) and that it'll be as great as it was in the first issues. But dont bring back the roadhogging on collections, since it seems like the ordinary amiga- traders can take care of that part themselves. But we do miss the ArtMag. Atre - -÷----÷- - Atre (please do notice, not the same as Crazy and GraveDancers old, dead group Arte) is perhaps the newest ascii force on the scene of today, and this is what Drakar (one of the founders) tells us about this group; Arte are Artists from Honey, Whale and Shoot. Atre is a sub-division of Honey that is totally dedicated to doing asciis and ansis to compete in the rapidly growing Ascii Scene. Hopefully we will prove to become a major ascii force in the years to come! I'm just curious about one thing, 'artists from Honey, Whale and Shoot' ? Drakar is from Honey, Gozz is also from Honey, but the third member, Homicide were in Offspring. So, who are the artists from Whale and Shoot? Please do tell me this if you know anything! About Dezign and Arclite - -÷------------------------÷- - There is some fuzz about however ShapeChanger is a member of Dezign or not. I, myself choosed to include him on both groups since it seems like nothing is for sure right now? Acctually I do live in the same part of Stockholm (Tyresö) as ShapeChanger and we even went in the same school together, all- though I don't know him personally, so it would be quite easy to get this problem solved, but Patrik will probably tell us himself soon, when his first 'back from the army'-collection arrives. But this part that comes now is written by Exocet/Arclite; Just for the records and to stop some rumours going around: ShapeChanger has joined arclite a while ago + isn't a member of dezign,whale or shoot ascii department or whatever. Arclite artists produce for arclite exclusively as you certainly have noticed in the past. The same is true for our newest member a.k.a U-man who has left whale to hang out with us in the future. His awesome bbs Final Impact will be available for your pleasure as an arclite swedish hq soon again. Dhm is not in Arclite anymore. so would all the guys publishing a mag please pay attention to that, thanks. I am also available for all the newest info on arclite via my e-mail address. Could be found in the 'Artists with an E-Mail'-part. Earlier in the text there is a part where Exocet declares that; 'The group by the name of Dezign which seems to be regrettably dead by now.' And this, together with the ShapeChanger quarrel, is what have causted the reply to the latest part, which comes here from Desert/Dezign; To the rumours that Shapechanger left Dezign and joined Arclite: i don`t believe that especially coz it`s spreaded by Mogue, and why should he left ? I think that will be solved soon. To Dezign: Most of the old members are inactice since a long time, Skin left the scene, Amblin concentrates himself more in consoles , Red Devil worked for a Softwarecompany but what he is doing today , nobody knows, heard nothing of Boomer since 2years and Shapechanger is still in the Army. But that all doesnt means that Dezign is dead or nearly dead than Dezign was never planned as a normal group. The idea was more a label of quality under the name DEZIGN including some of the world-best ascii and ansi freaks with friendship as mainconnection between the members. So as long as anybody of the real members is still in the scene under the DEZIGN label, Dezign is still alive, if not it will still live as a legend. There is no chance for anybody to get into the group. It will live or die in it`s existing form. It has nothing to do with Arrogance, it just results in the conception of the group. So there they are, both of the sides of the story. Until the real facts apprears, I guess you'll all just have to make your own conclusions and wait. About OffSprings Death - -÷----------------------÷- - Here is the words from Relief of ex-OffSpring and where he declares about the reasons that killed OffSpring especially for VietCong. Directly from the nowadays Twisted member, the real story; At one point hotwire had been busy with other stuff and oS! sort of needed some one to orginize the different stuff,or at leeast thats what i thought, then he told me that he would be away for some time and i was given the 'control' of oS! untill he returned,he told me not to let inn to many members and mess things up too much etc. at that point i had tried for some time to keep track of different things is oS! I then let Snuffy join in,since i thought os! could use his skills and i asked him and it was okay.Then time whent by and htw! came back and things where going okay,alot of releases etc then suddenly drakar was a member,which i and nobody else in os! knew about,just saw a os!colly where drakar wrote that hotwire had let him in our crew...i then got sort of pissed at htw for no telling me that a new member had joined,then a week after a new colly was u/l'ed at our board where it said that some doode called homocide was the arthour and again nobody knew about it,not even htw! At that point i was getting a bit borred with ascii and os! and thought about leaving os! to go on a solo tip! At that point me and htw had talked a bit about it and we where both angry about shit happening.We talked about kicking members and came up with some doodes which we agreed on shoudl be kicked,your name was also there,but htw said that you where on of the original members and shouldnt be kicked and i agreed on that. So we didnt kick any members afterall things just whent onn.I didnt feel like being the one who should kick one member,i feelt that i where pretty good friends with everybody is os! and didnt want to ruin that. One week after or so,htw said that he would leave os! and asked me if i wanted to stay in os! and then be the main man. I didnt like that idea it was a bit borring in os! and as i wrote,i had thought about leaving os! so we talked abit and we wanted to start a new group,found a name for it,talked about which members we wanted from os! to join us in the new crew...we wanted both to start on a fresh,things was getting borred with os! we had gotten respect from most crews,had gotten all the logos we could dream of,the troubles with members and i didnt feelt like being the bad guy who had to fuck everybody up,so im sorry Tobias,that you feelt like i screwed you over. I just wasnted to start on a fresh! new set of rooles,pure friendship,not that i dont consider you as my friend,but you know friendship rooels ;) All this text found in one of Reliefs more recent collections. Thanks for letting us know the facts friend! About Divine Stylers - -÷--------------------÷- - The story about why Divine Stylers aint a 1oo% Ascii-group, and how it all started, here it is! Brought to you by Trivial; What happened 1995 then? well, divine stylers was formed in june 1995 by trivial and mortimer twang. we wasn't a 'group' from the beginning. me and mortimer just formed the group because we thought it was a fun thang, and we still do!. and it just went on. orlingo, radavi, ramirez dino, whirlwind, vietcong! cybergod!, tommy and other people joined and 'whoops' we were a ascii-group. after one month of existance we was voted as 4'th best artgroup in roadhogs ' art-mag ' what a surprise!. people worldwide has heard about ds!, and this was not the main thang about our 'group'. we just want to have a good time!. i mean 'how to join divine stylers?' you dont have to do anything your ascii's may be a nighmare you'r more than welcome if u just got the right attitude!. People in divine stylers can release whatever they want, whenever, however we don't care!, because we know that all our members has got the right att- -itude. some of us, has left for better offers from other art-groups. sure! we miss them alot!, but we hope that they are having a good time and they are welcome back at any time. in 6 months time we released 'bout 3o collections. anyway, who care's bout collections. those textfiles with alot of chars and stuff that nobody want's to use!(?). maybe we are goin to stop our ascii activities and become a 100% scene grafitty group. the fact is: 95% of all divine stylers members are involved in grafitti activities in real liphe!. And the latest news are that yUk (Krusty), ex. pro^arts that had left the ascii scene, has joined us, fucking great!... Yours forever... / Trivial/Ds! And b.t.w., Trivial, you sure made the text-fixing of this part to a real heavy thing to rewrite. Jesus, I worked on it for hours. :) Groups Active - -÷-------------÷- - These are instead the active groups of today. With the members as they are situated today. And about Divine Stylers and Grotesticle, they are the only groups that aint 100% Ascii-groups, but I included them anyway, since they have members who releases for them as they were ordinary Ascii-groups. And if there are artists who appear on more than one place, thats only because they are about to change group or simply are accepted as artists in more than one clan. As I've never heard of some of these groups members, I can't possible know their tags, so these few tags are written with a ' ° ' infront of them, to make you aware of this. I only made a few guesses to these names. Arclite: Exocet, Gem/GreenEyedMonster, Karma, Sy-Klone, Danzig, Hijack (÷e÷) (gEm) (kRm) (SyK) (dZG) (hJ) Mogue, ShapeChanger, U-Man (Mo!)

The names listed below, My gentlemen, are The Artists. Quick key-definition should go like this: - = Artist don't use any tag. Easy eh? Well, lets go then, 452 Artists. And that means that there since the first issue of the Ascii Gazette has appeared 28 new artists on our beloved Ascii-scene. Please bring us more names, if you know any, by telling about them to xClUZiWe at any board or (for fastest update) at the Ascii Gazette Station, Another Step. By the way, this part of the Ascii- Gazette was done with some help from the sysop himself, Fatal. 2Fast [ 2F ] 610 [ 6¹° ] 911 [ 911 ] Acid Kid [ adk! ] Adon [ AdN! ] Adrock [ aRk ] Afg [ AFG ] Aguila [ -aGA ] Amblin [ aBn! ] Anf [ AnF! ] Antopheles [ -AnT!] A Perfect Craziness [ ApC ] Appomatox [ aptx ] Aqua [ aQua ] Aragon [ arg ] Artic Cat [ AC ] Aryan [ aRYAn] Atlantic [ atl! ] Atom [ AToM ] Axe [ aXe ] Axeblade [ ab ] Axy [ aXY ] B.Cyclo+ [ bC+ ] BashGuard [ BsG ] Bastard [ b!d ] Bc [ BC ] Beavis [ bvs ] Behemoth [ bHm ] Bhudda [ bUdd] Bibopp [ b¿b ] Biscrok [ bIS ] Black Dragon [ B.D. ] BlackPanther [ BP ] Blazer [ bZr ] Boheme [ bHe ] Boone [bOONE!] Boomer [ ßmR ] Booth [ Bo ] Boozo [ bOz ] Breeze [ bRZ ] Btw [ BtW ] Bugge [ bUG ] BuzzWipe [ b!w ] C-Real [ cRL ] Caine [ c ] CaptainCaveman [ [CC] ] Carbon2 [ c2! ] Case [ -cASE] Cateye [ cte ] Caxx [ c% ] CeeJay [ cJ ] Cenobite [ ©nb ] Chrombacher [ cRb ] Cip [ CIP ] Clairvoyant [ (c) ] Clone [ cL! ] Coco Pops [ cp ] Cola [ cOLa ] Cook [ c0ok ] CountDan [ cD! ] CountZero [ c0! ] Crack [ Ck ] Cray [ CRaY ] Crazy [ -cR ] Crocat [CRoCAT] Crusader [ cDr ] Crypth [ CrT ] Cryptor [ cP! ] Cuz [ CuZ ] Cybergod [ cG! ] Cyberkid [ ck! ] CyberPunk [ !cP! ] Cyclone [ cyc! ] Czar [ czar ] Dale [ DaLE ] Danzig [ dZG ] Dartagnan [ -DtN ] Dash [ d! ] Data [ dA! ] Dave [ ÐÅ! ] Daze [ dAZE ] DDay [ dDay ] DeathLord [ dL! ] Dee [ dee ] Delite [ dLT ] Demax [ -d- ] DeOne [ ^d1 ] DerHm [ ð ] Desert [ D! ] Desoto [ dto ] DethCrush [ dC! ] Devistator [ dV$ ] Dexter [ Dt ] Dino [ dNo ] Dirk [[DiRK!] Dizy [ dIzY!] Dmd [ dmD! ] Doc [ DoC ] Dos [ dOS ] Dr.AnalFreser [Dr.AnL] Dragon [ dGN! ] Drakar [ dK! ] Drastic [ dRS ] Draw [ dRAw ] Druid [ dRD ] Dual [ (d!) ] Dvize [ DVz ] Dyonisos [ dNSs ] Eagle [ egl ] Easy [ eZY ] ElBruto [ eb ] Elf¡n [ e! ] Elric [ EL? ] Elvis [ ] Enforcer [ eNf ] Epitaphic [ iC ] Everslick [ vsl ] Evrimsson [ evr ] Exciter [ eXC ] Exocet [ ÷e÷ ] Fatal [ fTL ] Fate [ fATE ] Fckw [ fCkW ] Fiddler [ &f ] FireMan [ F M ] Flexor [ fXR ] Flite [ ÷f!÷ ] Flux [ fX ] Foss [ none ] - Frame [ fRM ] Frb [ fRB ] Fred [ fRD ] Funki [ F@nK!] G.d.m.

Randy joined Save Our Souls. Grimlock joined Epsilon Design. Vinzi joined Mo'Soul. Krusty joined Divine Stylers. Dash joined Divine Stylers. Velvet Jones joined Divine Stylers. Matt joined Divine Stylers. Soxius joined Azkiness. Dave joined Azkiness. Jack Danielz joined Contra. Artists Leaving - -÷---------------÷- - These are the guys who left a group for another Ascii-group. ShapeChanger left Dezign and Whale for Arclite? Or will he stay? U-Man left Whale for Arclite. Cybergod left Divine Stylers for Whale. Acid Kid left Whale. Mazza left UpperClass for Art. Nup left Whale for Atre. Leaving the Scene - -÷-----------------÷- - This are the guys who left their groups and also the whole Ascii-Scene. Count Zero left Whale and the Ascii-Scene? Dhm left Arclite and the Ascii-Scene. Skin did obviously leave the scene a while ago but is still within Dezign as an ascii-legend. Artists News - -÷------------÷- - Shapechanger is within both Dezign and Arclite? Arclite will soon open a IRC channel especially for Arclite. Twisted has their own Internet-HomePage? Protest was formed by GraveDancer and Data. Atre was found by Drakar and Gozz. Head was found by Punk and Gangsta. New Whale leader is Lord Chaos? Rotox returened to the Ascii Scene. Desert returned to the Ascii Scene. Seems like WishBringer is back in House Of Style? Another Step is now Epsilon Design Whq and Azkiness Shq. Renames - -÷-------÷- - The ones who during their history as Ascii-artists have changed handles. This could be a hard part for a artist, as there is very hard to get an reputation, and when you've got it, to get the crowd to understand that you aint the one you used to be, that could take ages for some. The same problem exist when you change/rename a group. Grimlock ( GRiMLOCK ) -> Jedi ( Jedi ) Note that this Grimlock is NOT the same as the one known as g®m. Jedi has acctually sadly enough quitted the scene a while ago. He was within here because he was the only new one through times that I've discovered has changed his handle except for the other ones in the first issue. Questions - -÷---------÷- - Here they are, the questions that the poor victims have to answer. If you don't remember, these are the victims who until now have had to stand up and answer; Fatal - fTL - E^d Desoto - dto - M's Grimlock - g®m - E^d Behemoth - bHm - Sos Mazza - mAZ! - Art Skize - skZ - ex-Wl! And this is what they had to face; o1. When did you make your first Ascii attempts? o2. Do you know how many Ascii-productions have you released? o3. What's so damn special with Ascii? o4. Have you got any special idols from the Ascii-scene? o5. What's your opinion about the Iff2Ascii-Art? o6. Are dot's more stylish than 'regular' Ascii? o7. Do you read every single collection that is released today? o8. Do you answer requests made to 'All Available Artists' ? o9. How should a request be written to be guarantied a answer from you? 1o. Are there more Ascii-groups than there has to be? 11. What do you think of the attitude in the Ascii-scene of today? 12. What do you think about the idea of having special magazines dedicated to the Ascii-scene? 13. Is there a big difference between Old-skool Ascii and Ascii of today? 14. Have you any special projects going on that will be released in a near future? 15. What would you be doing instead of Ascii if you suddenly quitted? 16. Do you have a horny snoop doggy dogg? Behemoth - -÷--------÷- - o1. When did you make your first Ascii attempts? It was in early '93, after being amazed with what you could make with only standard chars. I developed a own style after I had gotten my first request. o2. Do you know how many Ascii-productions have you released? Yes. (15) o3. What's so damn special with Ascii? I think it is just like everything else that you can create in the scene, you get amazed by what others create and want to try it out. I get that feeling everytime I see something that is new. o4. Have you got any special idols from the Ascii-scene? Yes, Karma and Shapechanger really amazed me when I watched their collections for the first time. o5. What's your opinion about the Iff2Ascii-Art? I really love it when the person knows what they are doing. Like the way Mortimer Twang uses it in his collections. o6. Are dot's more stylish than 'regular' Ascii? It depends on how you use it, regular and dots look great together, but I think it's harder to come up with goodlooking regular style than it is to create dotstyle. o7. Do you read every single collection that is released today? No, only the ones from artists and groups that are rather well known. I almost never read peoples first collection. o8. Do you answer requests made to 'All Available Artists' ? Only when I'm working on a ascii collection that I want to fill up a bit since I don't get any requests (that's why I have lots of logos to those who actually request from me ;)) o9. How should a request be written to be guarantied a answer from you? As long as it isn't insulting in any way, you can write it in about any way you want. But if you throw in a few nice remarks that you like what I'm doing you'll be the first to get an answer. 1o. Are there more Ascii-groups than there has to be? Maybe in some aspects. The group can hold together better if they're more local, but it almost seems like everyone has to start a new ascii group, like he belives that he is too good/bad to be in one of the existing ones. 11. What do you think of the attitude in the Ascii-scene of today? We're seeing to many hostile remarks from ascii artists. This is supposed to be a friendly scene, remember? 12. What do you think about the idea of having special magazines dedicated to the Ascii-scene? As long as the ones who pulls the strings know what they are doing, it can really become something interesting (like this!) 13. Is there a big difference between Old-skool Ascii and Ascii of today? Definately, oldskool ascii are more symmetric while today's ascii can look in almost any way. Newskool artist rely more and more on design and humor. And if we compare the newskoolers with the oldskoolers they have a nicer attitude to ascii. That ascii is something individual and not so serious. 14. Have you any special projects going on that will be released in a near future? I have an oldskool collection, that is waiting for me to fininsh. I have tried to make it look like collections from '92 - '93. 15. What would you be doing instead of Ascii if you suddenly quitted? Studying, my grades look lite shit! 16. Do you have a horny snoop doggy dogg? I'm fucking collecting them!

Hmm... not very long ago. My first colly was released in May'95, but my very first ascii-attempts must have been around November'94! So I am not really an ewldskewl dude... thank god! - o2 - Do you know how many Ascii-productions have you released? Yes, of course I do; 15 collies by me, and a coop by Snuffy and me (TjaSiDet.Txt) - a very nice colly, in fact.... (click!) - o3 - What's so damn special with Ascii? Weirdness. The darn weirdness. It is kinda weird making logos and pictures of letters, isn't it? Weirdness has always been a part of my lame soul. - o4 - Have you got any special idols from the Ascii-scene? No, they are all bigtime loosers, whom never could be my idols! ... geeeh.. sorry, that must have been my dark half. Whut can I say? Read the respect list in my colly! But I do like artists who appreciate the art of orginality. - o5 - What's your opinion about the Iff2Ascii-Art? I have no opinion about it. Just know that I have never used it, and that I probably never will. But that doesn't mean I hate the iff2ascii-art! It just isn't my style! - o6 - Are dot's more stylish than 'regular' Ascii? Dots are very nice - IF you know how to use them!! I have tried dotting ... and failed! - o7 - Do you read every single collection that is released today? Do you watch every soap-opera at television? It is simply impos- sible to read all collies, there are just too many of them! I down- load all collies I get my hands on see, and that is kind of many!!! - o8 - Do you answer requests made to 'All Available Artists' ? I don't even read them. I am an arrogant lamer!! Hehehehehe.. - o9 - How should a request be written to be guaranteed an answer from you? It should be written on a rektum-super-huge-dildo, and sent by mail to me. Then you have a 100%-guaranteed-answer-request. If you can't afford a dildo, or simply want to use it on yourself, then do not fear! There IS another way! Just write me a non-asciidoor-messy, and you will probably end up with a lame ascii from the slave of lameness (yours truly, that is!). - 1o - Are there more Ascii-groups than there has to be? No, there should be more! Just like the once-so-kool demoscene! More groups = bigger asciiscene = najs!! - 11 - What do you think of the attitude in the Ascii-scene of today? Fuck the standard ascii-attitude! It is way too serious!! I hate the whole oldskool-idea!! I hate it so much, that I want to convert to heterosexuality! What is the point of being an arrogant son of a bitch, who doesn't have any respect of todays newcomers, and just respect the "talented" old farts who haven't released a colly in years. And do you know why they haven't!?!! Because their asciis suck so much, that they would probably loose all the respect they once gained.. haha.. I do only respect active artists! It is they who keep the ascii-scene alive, not them "oldfoolers"!!!
