@1Hubba Hubba ! @2Welcome@1 to another edition of the ever so popular
@3Crusaders@2 Euro Chart @3Top Ten@1 This time the scrolltext will feature part
two of the also very popular @2Cyberpunk@1 story about @3Ken@1, so stay tuned for
that after the usual amount of information. First some small messages from
me. Well the most important message from me would be that our board, the
one some of you would know as @2"Home Sweet Home"@1 just got a @3US Robotics HST
@2Dual Standard@1 modem so I guess you could say we're joining the Hi-Speed club.
Numbers ? Here they come @3HST@1 users call @3+47-6-810864@1
@3+47-6-810864@1 Ordinary @2300-2400bps@1 users call @3+47-6-810881
+47-6-810881 The number for @2Golden Gate@1 is
@2+47-42-46718 +47-42-46718 @3See you at the board guys !!!
¶ @3OH!@1 Look, there's Waldemar. @2Hi, Waldermar! So you decided to drop
by this time too ? @3 Hope you're not still angry about loosing your job! @1
If you don't mind we'd like to get on with the scrolltext....@1
After christmas our Elite board, The @3Crusaders Golden Gate@1 will also get
their HST modem. In the future we will probably set up a mail network between
the two boards too. Then I would, as usual to say a big hello to all users of
our boards. The months has been a bit record breaking. Not that I began
smashing all my LP's or anything, but we had like 3 new users every day !
If you're a user at our HQ board you have to log in at least once every eight
months or your record will be deleted. We expect even more users now with
the @3HST@1 modem and the total number of users today is @21003.@1 ...and that's
quite a bit if I may say so! You have probably heard lots of shit from other
groups about our boards, but why not check it out for yourself ? They're only
a phonecall away, and they're both open @224hrs a day.@1 Now I guess it's time
for some important messages from the EuroChart administartors. Stay tuned for
part two of the story about Ken after the break....
.... Zooooooooom!! Guess who is here?? Yep, yep,
calm down everybody!! This is once again @2Bustman@1 knocking on your front
door, asking if you want to buy some graphics. So, do you want to improve
the graphical layout of your productions?? @3Yes, I know!! @2Some of you groups
out there already have excellent graphicians. But you people are not my
target concerning this advertisement, I am talking about all you groups that
do not have that good graphicians. Or, simply, you do not have graphicians
at all. So if you want to get a logo for your group, a charset, a picture
or whatever then just let me know. @1Just give me a note and I will fix it
for a reasonable price. When ordering, remember to state exactly what you
want. This way you can be more sure¶ on what you get, and we will avoid a lot
of problems. @2Also remember to state how many bitplanes, which size if it is
a matter of charsets, and the resolution. The more details you can give, the
better. I will charge in new and unformatted quality disks, price depending
on the size of the work. Ok, do you feel this is something for you and your
group?? Then let me know. You can contact me at the following address, at
any time. Just drop a letter with your request at this mailbox...
@3BUSTMAN/CRUSADERS @1-@3 MYRDALSKOGEN 379 @1-@3

@1... ... Gee, I have just finished off the graphics for this
issue of our popular @2Eurochart@1. I hope you readers are satisfied with my
work, I should tell you that I really put my soul into it. Hmm, let us change
subject. I think I will finish off with some very special regards to my cool
friends around. Since I have stopped making all those freeked out pack-disks,
I have also stopped greeting my dear contacts. I think some of them deserve
to get a snort of busemenner when I am at this scroller. If you are missed
then tough luck. @2When I say very special regards, I mean @3VERY@2 special.

days. @3ABSENCE@1 - Yahoo!! Finally, here is a hello to you two guys living
here in my neighbourhood, @3Quest@1 and @3Goofy@1. I guess I could say that since I
talk to you every single day, I have never found it necessary to give you a
special message or so. But anyway, here is a greet to you too. Keep up your
work with the graphics, but remember that only practise makes master. Also a
hello to some of the other dudes in @2Absence@1 that I met at the Arendal-party.
I think one of you had the name @3MCS@1, am I right?? Nice chat. To the rest
of @2Crusaders@1 I can only say that it will be cool seeing all you fellows and
guys again at the forthcoming party by @3Network@1 and @2Theatre@1. Hello to

messages. Pretty much, eh?? Shit, the clock is now an hour past midnight and
it is school tomorrow. And I have not even done all my homework!! Double
SHIT!! Who the heck invented sleep?? I could have killed him. This is the
end for me... See you around in another scroller sometime... So long... ....
..... Back to Dr.Outtasight: ¶
There we are. Now that you've read all the important messages and got your
coke and your potato chips and your best chair our, relax and lean back and
just enjoy the story about Ken, part two. If you've missed part one, it's on
a music disk from a group called @2Abusive@1 which was released 01.12.90, or you
could just download it from our boards under the filename @2KEN1.LZH.@1 Now back
to the story Last time we left Ken, he had just brough back his brand
new cybernoid model - a girl to be exact. After getting all the boxes in to
his room without his mother noticing anything, he started opening the first
box. It was the one with the head, and the head module. She sure was pretty,
but that's not the only reason for Ken buying this cybernoid, or Replicant
as some people called them. The name came from some early models made by
freaked-out genetic designers back in year 2020, which constantly
malfunctioned and caused harm and death to humans. They were taken out of
production and nowadays one had to have a license to manufacture them. And
all models had to go through certain goverment inspections. This of course
added a lot to the price. Ken took the head out of the box and sat down
to have a real good look at it. Suddenly he heard someone outside his door
and he quickly dropped the head back in the box. Before he could close it,
his mother yelled "What on earth are you doing !? And what's that ???"
"Ehrm..." Ken was in a bit of a situation now. He had promised his mother
that he would use his saved-up money for a new aero-bike and not for a
cybernoid model! "Hi mom. This is Tanisha. Roger's new cybernoid. She's
really funny. Do you want to hear her speak ?" Ken knew that his mother
hated everything that had to do with cybernoids, and the box with the head
was right in front of her, so this was the best way to get her to leave
the room - she once had a date with one and she didn't notice that he was
a Replicant before it was too late. "NO!" his mother yelled, seeing the
head with the cables sticking out of the neck, and she slammed the door
behind her. "I'm going over to Sally. Don't stay up to late Ken" his
¶mother shouted from the kitchen. Great! Ken was alone. He removed the
transportation brackets and began to open the other boxes with legs, arms,
and the main body. The battery was in a box of its own and after opening
it he had the complete cybernoid in parts spread across the floor of his
room. Ken didn't need an assembly manual - he had watched the techincians
for hours at the computer shop, and now it was time to assemble his own.
All the connectors fitted snuggly into their slots and in just a couple
of hours the cybernoid was assembled. Without noticing it Ken had been
fumbling around with a naked body. Very human like and very perfect in
every way. Ken had never seen a completely naked girl before, except for
all the dirty video disks they used to watch over at Collin's place. He
was amazed that this body was even more pretty than the sex-model they
used in dirty videos. Ken snapped out of his trance and rushed over to his
mothers bedroom to find something she could wear. If his mother saw a butt
naked girl lying on his bed she would really freak out for sure. He brought
back what he thought would fit. He put the clothes beside the cybernoid on
the bed and left the room with the remote control. He closed the door behind
him and pressed the power switch. All he heard was the small beep
from the remote control, but he decided to wait a bit longer. Shit. Something
must have gone wrong. The guys at the computer shop had probably ripped him
off and sold him a bad model. He reached for the door handle and turned
it. Just as the door opened he could hear someone moving on his water bed.
He quickly shut the door again and tip-toed over to the chair by the kitchen
tabel. "Hello?" a smooth voice sounded from behind his door and Ken didn't
know if he was dreaming or not. He had never actually been so close to a
droid that just had woken up before so he studdered a bit "Eh..Eh..Ye-Yeah?"
"Would someone mind coming in here and help me a bit?" the smooth voice
sounded again. "Ehrm..well, ok.." ¶Ken didn't imagine it to be so hard to
speak to a droid. This was just like trying to ask a girl at school out for
a date... maybe even harder... Ken slowly opened the door and looked accross
the room over to his bed. The clothes were still lying on the bed, but the
droid had moved to under the sheets. All he could see was her head above the
sheets. She had a perfect tan and her skin was much more human now that the
bio-mechanisms had started. "Hi." she said "Who are you?" "I-I'm Ken. I just
bought you" "Oh, well.." she said "Let's get started with transfering my
software. I'm feeling a bit empty-headed". She pulled out a small optical
cable from her purse which came with the model and connected it to the back
of her head under the long, slightly curled black hair. Ken reached out for
the cable and their hands touched. Her hands were warm, just like a human
being...She stopped. She knew Ken didn't have the greatest experience with
Replicants. If this wasn't romantic, nothing was.. Ken pulled the cable
over to the EISDN slot in the wall and plugged it in. The droid slowly put
its head back on the pillow and closed its eyes. What happened now ? Ken
hadn't seen this before, and he picked up the manual from one of the boxes
to see what she was doing. "The basic software will be transfered free of
charge blah-blah-.. Do not interrupt software transfer blah-blah..." There!
"While transfering the basic software, the PX-1600 will close all life
functions. Please stand by while the transfer is progressing. The complete
transfer, depending on the amount you have ordered will take approx. 1-2
minutes." Well, that wasn't such a long time. Ken was glad he wasn't paying
for the transfer. Optical hi-speed transfers on the EISDN network wasn't
exactly cheap, all though Roger probably could fix a a Red Box for him so
that he could transfer software free of charge. Suddenly her eyes opened
and she turned to him and smiled. "That's it." She removed the cable and put
it back in her purse. Ken didn't exactly know what kind of software he had
ordered with the droid, but it was probably the standard package - 5
languages, household utilities, diagnostics and so on.. "You must be about
16 years old so I guess you should turn your head the other way while I
dress." she said. While Ken was loo¶king the other way she quickly dressed
and after jsut a minute or so she was finished. "It's ok now. You can look.
Well, what do you think? Just like you wanted?" she smiled again. "Eh..aw..
Sure. Yepp. Just like I expected" Ken studdered. "Awf. It's quite painful
to be closed down and switched on again like this. All though I don't have
the pain sensors of a human beeing I do have the ability to feel some forms
of pain. By the way, what's your name ?". She stood up and walked towards
him. "I'm Ken. Ken Miller. It's really Kevin, but all my friends call me
Ken." He fealt it was a bit easier to speak to her now. "So Ken. I have
received a lot of information about you from the central informations
system so I know most things about you already, but I would like to add
something to my records. Like what kind of food you like, what you do for
fun, and so on.. Tell me about yourself." She sat down on the chair beside
him and took his hand. Ken told her all about himself. They must have
been sitting like this for at least 4 hours when Ken heard the front door
open. "Sssshh. I'ts my mother. Be quiet. She thinks I'm sleeping" "Ken!
are you still up?" his mother yelled. She must have seen the light from
under the door. "Well, I was just going to bed" "Is that droid still here?"
his mother asked. Tanisha looked at Ken. She realized that Ken hadn't told
his mother that he had bought a complete cybernoid model. Many grown-ups
had one or more cybernoids, but it was rather seldom that a 16 year old kid
had one. Tanisha stood up and opened the door. Ken's mother was on the edge
of brain close-down. In front of her stood a girl, or rather a female
cybernoid who was wearing her clothes and coming out of her own sons room.
Ken knew that this had to be the end. His mother wouls surely have him
terminated tomorrow morning. Tanisha closed the door behind her and left Ken
sitting in his room by himself. She pulled out a chair and helped Ken's
mother on to it. Ken could hear them talk., but not exactly what they
were talking about, but it had to be about him.. Every now and then he
could hear his mother screaming "I don't want a Replicant in my house!"
The time had passed 04:00 when Tanisha opened the door and when she
and Ken's mother came in to his room. They sat down on the bed. "You could
have told me that you were going to buy a Replicant, Ken. But we have come
to an agreement, Tanisha and I. She's going to do some of the household
things around here, so that I can start working again." "Hey, that's great
mom!" "Tanisha better sleep in the guest room I think. Come Tanisha, let's
get that spare bed out of the storage room for you. Replicants didn't
actually sleep like a human did, but they closed down their life funtions
and recharged their backup batteries during sleep. All though the cybernoids
didn't run on electricity, the central nerve computer system had a battery
backup unit just in case. Their bodies consumed food like any normal human
beeing, and got energy from that. Ken wanted to stay up and talk about him
self all night but Tanisha followed his mother out the door. "Good night
Kevin. Sleep well. Dream sweet dream and come up with a name for me. Tanisha
is just my model name.." "Good night¶ ....Tanisha" See you in the morning....

@1That's right - this is the Official
Crusaders EuroNews - the News-
section of the EuroChart!
First of all, the Crusaders wish
you all a happy new year, and a
good 1991 for all Amiga freaks!
@2 What you see is a
@3 NEW AND IMPROVED
@2 EuroChart!!
°@1In addition to the Charts
themselves, you now get:
- The EuroNews (This part)
- The Gallery !
The three parts will be more or
less integrated. You will see that
when you quit from the EuroNews,
you can either Quit to CLI, or get
back to the EuroChart. In other
words, the charts are still the
most important thing here!
No, we're not turning the EuroChart
into a disk-mag. Not yet anyway.
There will not be any articles in
the EuroNews, no interviews, no
coding lessons - just the news,
that's it. (Oh, and some jokes..)
°@1Some of the text parts from the
EuroChart are moved into the
EuroNews section. The EuroChart is
now ONLY the charts - all the other
stuff is in here, like the "Thanks"
section, and the "About EuroChart"
section and so on. We have also
introduced a "jokes section" for
those interested. Maybe in the
future, we will add a little to the
EuroNews. Let's just see what the
future brings, shall we?
@2Controls:@1 See those 4 arrows at
the bottom of the screen? See'em?
Got'em? Good. Now, the left and

Before you start reading the news,
please note that some of them are
just rumours - we do not guarantee
that they are all true. We just
tell you what we've heard. Well,
off we go then..
@2-----------------------------------
@1
It is heard from BitNet that a new
soundchip is being made for the
Amiga. It is called @3"Mary"@1 and
will be a replacement for "Paula".
The chip is supposed to offer @3"CD

@3Soundtracker for the PC!
@1
Dr.Awesome had the doubtful
pleasure of trying out
"Screamtracker" for the IBM
compatibles. He reports quite good
editing and it was very user
friendly, and it DID give you 4
°@1channels of digitized sound!
However, the sound quality was less
than good, it sounded as though you
had made your own loudspeaker out
of some cardboard, and played on it
whilst holding it under water. In
other words, totally unuseable.
Might be worth a try, just for the
sake of a good laugh.
There is also a ripper available.

@2-----------------------------------
°@1Here's quite an interesting story
picked up from BitNet. An Amiga
owner was visiting a computer show
and wanted to have some fun with
an Apple MacIntosh salesman. The
conversation went as follows:
@2Question: How many colours can the
Mac display?
@3Answer: 16.7 million
@2I know that's the palette, but how
many can it actually display?
@316.7 million.
@216.7 million on screen at once?
@3Yes.
@2At what resolution?
°@31024 by 768.
@2That gives only 786.432 pixels on
your screen, so how can you display
16.7 million colours with 786.432
pixels?
@3Well, um, that was theoretical.
@2So, for the 4th time, how many
colours can it actually display?
@3256, but out of the 16.7 million it
can chose from.
@1New topic:
@2How many expansion slots does it
have?
@3One.
°@2Why so few?
@3Because, most users have no need
for them, and the computer has
everything built in.
@2What is built in?
@3Video, HD controller, floppy,
networking ability, modem.
@2How would I add memory?
@3Use the expansion slot.
@2How would I add a fax?
@3Use the expansion slot.
@2How would I add an accelerator?
°@3Use the expansion slot.
@2How would I enable it to record on
video tape?
@3Use a Genlock.
@2But don't I need an NTSC signal
first?
@3Yes.
@2How would I get that?
@3A card in the expansion slot.
@2So where would I put the Genlock?
@3In the expansion slot.
@2But the NTSC card is already there.
°@3You'd have to purchase more
expansion slots.
@2What is the internal modem like?
@31200 or 2400 baud.
@2Does it have level 5 error
detection and data compression
built in?
@3Not yet.
@2But I want my modem to have these.
@3Well, you can't have it. (Salesman
getting very angry by now)
@2Does the Mac multitask?
@3Of course, using Multi-Finder.
°@2Can you show me?
@3Sure, no problem.
@2Can you show me how to format 2
disks at the same time?
@3Hum, let's try.
@1<<<<>>>>
@3Guess it can't do that..
@2But you just told me it could
multi-task.
@3It does, there must be something
wrong with the drives...

þ@3To all voters: @1 For the last time:
Do @2not@1 put your votes as text
files, pictures, or in any other
way vote on disk!! Write your
votes down on PAPER or print out
the text file! We will ignore all
votes coming in on disk. We don't
have the time for that kind of
crap.
@2-----------------------------------
°@3To all DiskBack Service users:
@1
For the last time: If you want to
use the DiskBack Service, it COSTS
ONE DISK, so don't just send us one
disk - send TWO. If we receive
only one disk from you, we will NOT
return it.
@2-----------------------------------
@3Mick of Daniax:
@1
Sorry we got your name fucked up
last time. Hope we got it right
this time! It doesn't matter
whether you write 1,2,3 or just
group1, group2, group3 and so on.
They will be given 3,2,1,1,1...
points after the order in which
°@1you wrote them. We'd like to
include some more crazy sections
like you mentioned, but we don't
have any more time to spend on the
counting. Sorry.
@2-----------------------------------
@3Clash of Paradox@1 had some thoughts
about the charts, about the voting
etc. He thought that maybe it's
not such a good idea that everyone,
even total lamers, can vote for the
EuroCharts, because many of them
might vote for something totally
out of date, maybe even crews that
don't longer exist etc.
Well Clash, in one way you're
right, if only the "elite" voted,
the charts would be more
°@1up-to-date. But who are we to
judge who can vote and who can't?
We can't sit and say "You can
vote.. You CAN'T vote because
you're not cool enough... You..
hmmm you're almost cool enough to
vote but.. no.. And this dude can
vote, but this one can't..." You
get the idea? For this reason we
think it's better that everyone can
vote.
Clash/Paradox would also like to
see a "Best intros" chart... well
we will think about it - for the
moment, let's just settle with the
fact that Paradox is undoubtably
Nr. 1 on this chart. We don't
think anyone would disagree that
Paradox is the Number One intro
group in the world.
@2-----------------------------------
°@3Tricky T of Genesis:
@1Thanks a lot for the nice picture
you sent us. We might use it some
time in the future. I hope it's ok
if we take out the Crusaders logo
and use only that, ok? Anyway -
why didn't you vote for the charts?
@2-----------------------------------
@3Proxt of Cave...
@1...wrote us a nice letter with a
few questions etc. We'll try to
answer them here:
@3How do we handle the votes,
calculate the results etc.?
@1We have developed a special program
°@1for helping us keep track of all
the percentages etc. All we do is
tap in the votes (mostly we just
tap in numbers), then we use the
program to generate the lists,
including percentages etc. and
just include them in the EuroChart.
@3How many vote sheets do you get for
each issue?
@1For the Nov-90 issue, we counted
402 votes. For the Jan-91, we
estimate the number to about 350.
(We write this before counting
them, see?)
@3How many use the DiskBack Service,
after you started to charge one
disk as payment for it?
°@1For the Nov-90 issue, there was
about 90 DiskBack users. The way it
looks now, there will be about 100
for the Jan-91 issue.
@3Who takes care of sending all those
disks back to people with the new
EuroChart?
@1We do. (i.e. El Cubo, Dr.Awesome
and Lazerbrain of Crusaders)
@3Hope the answers are satisfying.
Also, thanks for the ideas, the one
with "best stuff" is quite a good
one. But the EuroChart is growing
quite big now, and it takes quite a
bit of time to do changes like
this. We will think about it,
though.
°@2TCB of Pussy@1 wrote to us and
pointed out that we should not
place @3Flash Prod.@1 in the
Pack-disks chart, because they
don't make packs any more.
First of all TCB, it is @2not@1 we who
put @3anyone@1 in any of the charts.
It is the hundreds of voters - so
tell them, not us! Is there really
someone out there who @3still@1 thinks
that @3we@1 decide on the charts???
In that case, you have not
understood what the EuroChart is
all about...
Second, as far as we know, Flash
Prod. are still making the
@3"Evolution"@1 packs.
Thanks to Pussy for spreading vote
sheets for us!
°@2A little message to @3Anarchy@1, the
authors of "@1Stolen Data@2":
Great mag - we think maybe you
should double check what you write
in it, though. For example,
@3Dr.Awesome@2 is not a member of
@1Walkman@2... In fact, Walkman is not
a group - he's a guy. Second,
@3Grubi@2 is not a member of @1Crusaders@2.
He's a member of @3Brainstorm@2.
Third, @1Alcatraz@2 is spelled with a
C, not with a K. We found these
mistakes ONLY in the "Best
musicians" charts... You have a
neat mag, but you should take a bit
more time proof reading and
checking information. Keep on
truckin'!
°@1To @2Alliax@1 in France:
Thanks for your votes and the
letter. No, I was not in France in
October/November.
Signed: Dr.Awesome
To @2Maestro / Kefrens:
@1
Thanks for sorting out a few "bugs"
for us. If you see any more of'em -
let us know.
To @2Swapperjack / Euphoria@1:
We really do appreciate that you
spread vote sheets and collect
votes for us, but please note a few
things:
°@31)@1 All the votes you collected
looked more or less like 20 guys
had been sitting in the same room
and voted for eachother, and for
you.
@32)@1 Can you please tell your voting
friends that we do not find their
"humourous" voting very funny.
Either they vote properly, or they
don't vote at all. Counting the
votes is one *shitty* job, and when
we're in the middle of this, the
last thing we want is poor jokes
like "Best single - Beethoven" etc.
etc. etc. It's wasting our time,
and we didn't even laugh once.
We know that it really isn't your
fault - and we DO appreciate you
helping us. So the message above
is really more to your voting
friends, than to yourself.
®þ@3LIST OF VOTERS
þ
@1This section contains the names of
all the voters for this issue of
the EuroChart. We wish to thank
each and every one of you for

wouldn't be what it is without all
of you. Don't forget: Next issue
1st of March - all votes welcome,
as usual.
If you expected to find your name
in the list, but can't find it, it
is possible that your votes arrived
too late. In that case, they will
be counted for the next issue. To
those who voted on-line on our BBS:
Unfortunately we had a severe
disk-crash and the votes were lost.
We're sorry!

@1 Once again: Thank you all!
®þ@3JOKES !
þ
@2You are most welcome to send us
cool jokes for the next issue of
the EuroNews. The more, the
better!
@3Here we go:
@1
The female teacher asked the class:
"Does anyone know why cows have
such funny faces?"
After some time, little Ken says:
"Wouldn't you have a funny face, if
you had your tits squeezed twice a
day, and only got fucked once a
year?"
@2
- What's the name of Santa's
girlfriend?
- Mary Christmas..
°@3There was a worm eating the leaf of
a watercress in a little pond.
A bird lands nearby, sees the worm,
gets closer, but decides to eat the
worm when the worm has got a little
tastier after eating some more of
the leaf.
A cat sees the bird and decides to
eat it. The cat gets closer and
closer and sees that the bird is
watching the worm. It waits a bit
longer and eventually it jumps
towards the bird.
It is a near miss and the cats ends
up in the pond. The bird flies
away. The little worm gets
underneath the leaf.
What do we learn from this ?
The longer the foreplay, the wetter
the pussy gets.
°@1- What's the favrourite x-mas song
in South Africa?
- That's easy - "White Christmas"..
@2
"And how are we today?" the Doctor
asks the patient one day at the
hospital.
"Well," says the patient; "by the
way you look and I feel, we should
both be dead!"
@3
A man was out driving nearby a
farm. He suddenly saw a chicken
jump out in front of his car. He
tried to stop the car but...
"SQUASH!" The man picked up the
chicken and rang the doorbell at
the farm. The farmer opened up,
and the man said "Is this your
chicken Sir?". "No" said the
farmer, "..mine aren't that flat."
°@1The wife to her husband: "I made
that soup after a receipt I saw on
TV."
The husband: "Really? Well I
better go see what's wrong with our
antenna then..."
@2
This one happened in Canada:
In an indian village the people
asked their meidicine man what kind
of a winter will the next one be.
The medicine man studied the nature
and told the people that the winter
would be very cold and long.
Indian women went to the mountains
to collect wood for the coming
winter.
°@2The medicine man wondered, will it
really be that bad a winter. He
went to city met and asked them.
"The winter will be very bad", was
the immediate answer. "How can you
tell that so sure?", asks the
medicine man. "The indian women
are collecting wood in the
mountains", was the answer.
@1
How many cops does it take to
change a light bulb?
10. One to change the bulb, and 9
to write the report.
@2
How many programmers does it take
to change a light bulb?
None. It's a hardware problem.
°@3Two gays were walking down the
street when another gay passes by.
The one gay says:
"That guy is a real good fuck!"
The other one replies:
"No SHIT!"
The first on says:
"Well hardly any....."
@2
Did you hear about the Swedish
parachute, it opens on impact.....
@3
To all girls:
What's the dumbest part of a man?
His prick. (It's got no brains,
its best friends are two nuts, and
it lives right next door to an
asshole...)
°@2Best@3 joke this time:
@1
A guy entered a bar he'd never been
to before. He noticed a monkey
sitting by the bar, but didn't
really think much about it - he
just wanted a beer, so he ordered
one. The monkey kept looking at
the guy and when the guy got his
beer, the monkey seemed very
interested in it. It kept staring
at the beer, and this guy was
beginning to feel a bit awkward
about it, but tried to enjoy his
beer anyway.
After a while, to the man's utter
surprise, the monkey suddenly
pulled out it's "willie" and
urinated in the beer! The guy got
furious of course, and asked the
°@1bartender who owned this
godforsaken monkey.. "The piano
player owns him, he's over there
playing right now." the bartender
says.
The guy walks up to the piano
player and says: "Hey, do you know
your monkey just pissed in my
beer??!"
"No", says the piano player, "but
if you hum a few bars, I can fake
it!"
:-D
@2Here's the most disgusting joke we
have received this time. It was
sent by Genesis of IMX Australia:
°@3- What's the last thing that goes
through a baby's mind when it's
being raped to death?
- A dick.
@2What can we say? Gross.
@3Here's one that was submitted to
our board, by Shady of MegaExpo:
@1Ok, there was this old bum, ya
know. He walked from house to
house and tried to bum things (like
bums do). Anyway(s), one night he
came upon a house and knocked on
the door. A farmer opened the door
and asked him his business. The
bum asked for a place to stay for
the night, and perhaps some food.
The farmer was willing to give him
°@1food and shelter in the barn. The
bum then asked if he could stay
inside, perhaps on a sofa or even
better in a bed as he had this bad
back, ya see. Well, the farmer
agreed after a long period of
thinking. The bum could stay in
the farmer's and his wife's bed if
he promised not to fuck his wife.
The bum agreed to do so and came
inside. They ate supper and went
to bed. The wife was already in
bed, so the bum dropped next to her
as the farmer was still downstairs.
The bum lay there for a while
before he forgot his good
intentions and fucked the wife of
the farmer. After he finished the
farmer came up and they all
slept... The next day the farmer
called from downstairs to the bum
°@1to come down for breakfast. The
bum then had a sudden sense of
regret for doing such a hideous
thing to a good man's wife, so the
least he could to do he thought was
to clean her up. As said as done,
and then he went downstairs. The
farmer looked at him frowned and
then said to the bum: "Hey, didn't
I tell you not to touch my
wife????". Well, the bum said that
he had so, but he was mighty
curious about how the farmer could
know he banged his wife????
"Well," said the farmer,"ya see,
you got little white maggots all
around your face, as my wife has
been dead in bed for over two
months!!!
°@2That's the end of our Jokes section
for this issue. If you've heard a
good joke lately, why not share it
with the rest of the EuroNews
readers?
®þ@2ABOUT THE
EUROCHART
þ@1
If you're an old EuroChart reader,
you've probably read this a hundred
times before, so just skip to the
next section, ooOOrait! All new
EuroChart fans, read on...
The EuroChart is different from
other charts, because everyone is
invited to vote - not just a few
selected groups. It doesn't matter
if you're a leader of a big group,
or just an average user, everyone
can take part in the EuroChart, and
all votes are treated equally.
°@1The people behind the EuroChart are
@3Crusaders@1, located in Norway. Main
organizers are El Cubo and
Dr.Awesome, but with good help from
the rest of Crusaders, and guys
from other groups too. (Check the
"Thanks" section)
The votes are counted every 2nd
month, and the results are
presented in a "demo/diskmag-like"
program. You've just been watching
it, before you entered into this
section, which is the EuroNews.
The EuroNews and The Gallery
sections are both integrated parts
of the EuroChart. Also on these
sections, everyone is invited to
take part.
°@1If you want to send your votes, any
news, a joke or a photo for The
Gallery, send it to:
Crusaders EuroChart
Po.Box 45
1474 Nordbyhagen
NORWAY
Votes, news, jokes and photos are
always welcome!
@2A few hints for the voting:
@1
You don't have to have a special
EuroChart voting form. You can
write your votes down on any old
piece of paper. One guy had ripped
out a page from the phone book...
another guy ripped off some of his
°@1wallpaper and voted on it. (PS.
This is TRUE!)
The EuroChart is now a SCENE ONLY
chart. That means, no more entries
such as "Graphics from 'Beast'" or
"The coders of 'Elite'". Only
persons from the scene will be in
the Charts.
When you vote for more than one
group/person/whatever, then the
first one you write down will get 3
points, the second 2 points, and
all thereafter 1 point each. For
example: "Red Sector, Paradox,
Scoopex, Angels, Kefrens, Skid Row"
- this would give 3 points to Red
Sector, 2 points to Paradox and 1
each to all the others.
®þ@2ABOUT THE
EURONEWS
þ@2
The idea behind it all:
@1We always thought that one of the
most interesting parts of the many
disk-mags was the "News & Info"
part. So we decided to introduce a
little mini-diskmag, with ONLY this
part. After working with the idea
a bit, we decided to include an
"Advertisements" section and a
"Jokes" section as well.
We will gladly accept any news sent
in by our readers. Also, for this
reason, we can not go about and
check that every news item is true.
So we'll take our precautions:
°@3*@1 News or messages that are
insulting to other groups or
persons are not welcome, and will
not be printed. We've been
"burned" on this before, and we
learned our lesson.
@3*@1 Some of the news presented are
just stuff we've heard, and we pass
them on to you. We do not
guarantee that everything is true.
We can't possibly check everything.
@3*@1 Not-so-serious news are also
accepted and welcome. Let's not
get too serious, and forget that
it's all supposed to be fun.
Right?
®þ@2ABOUT THE
GALLERY
þ@1
@3The Gallery@1 is an integrated part
of the EuroChart. For every
release we will bring you pictures
of various guys from the scene. Of
course, we don't want to print only
pictures of ourselves, so anyone
interested in having their pretty
face displayed in The Gallery,
should dig up a photo and send it
to us.
@3You don't have to worry about
digitizing etc. Simply send us the
photo and we will take care of the
rest.
°@2Group photos are best - collect as
many members of your group as
possible and get a picture taken!
If you have a cute girlfriend, send
us a picture of her, and watch her
face when she sees herself on the
screen! In a program from Norway!
Hehe.
@3We're sorry to say that we don't
have the capacity to send the
photos back to you.. so if you
send us a photo, you will not get
it back. (Unless you use the
DiskBack Service, in which case we
will send it to you with the disk).
We hope you can live with this.
@1If you send one photo with several
guys on it, remember to write who
is who on the photo - For example:
°@1Left to right: Dode 1, Dude 2,
Dude 3 etc. We will not use a
picture if we don't know who's in
it.
®þ@3ABOUT THE
DISKBACK SERVICE
þ@2
If you would like to receive the
EuroChart, The EuroNews and The
Gallery directly in your mailbox,
immediately after the release date,
then do the following:
@3*@1 Write down your votes for the
EuroChart on a piece of paper.
@3*@1 Write your name and address
clearly on a 3.5" disk.
@3*@1 Pick up one more fully working
3.5" disk to pay for the DiskBack
Service.
°@3*@1 Send your votes and the two disks
to the EuroChart address.
@3*@1 Wait for the goodies to appear in
your mailbox!
@2A few "rules" to follow:
@3*@1 You can @2not@1 send return postage
instead of the extra disk. The
DiskBack Service costs one fully
working 3.5" disk. This covers the
postage @2and@1 the work we put into
it.
@3*@1 If you send us an unuseable disk,
you get the same unuseable disk
back.
@3*@1 If you send two unuseable disks,
you get nothing back.
®þ@3ADVERTISEMENTS
þ@1
There are very few actual
advertisements this time, since
this is the first time we've had
them. More ads will turn up later.
If you would like your
advertisement printed in the
EuroNews, just send us your ad on a
disk. We will keep the disk as
payment.
@2Follow these instructions:
@3*@1 Use a text editor, not a word
processing program
@3*@1 Max 35 characters wide
@3*@1 Max 22 lines tall
°@3Here's an example:
@2**********************************

*@1 beer in exchange! @2*
*@1 @2*
*@3 P.S: Anyone interested in @2*
*@3 swapping keys? @2*
* *
**********************************
°@3Note!@1 An advertisement costs one
disk @2and@1 the DiskBack Service costs
one disk.
So, if you want to use the DiskBack
Service @3and@1 place an advertisement,
you should send us 3 disks, of
which we will return 1 with the
latest EuroChart + EuroNews + The
Gallery.
We might give away free
advertisements to those who have
helped us a lot with the EuroChart.
Right, here are the few
advertisements we have this time...
