 Date 91-11-05   ³Victim¹ : ²Circulator / Silents³ Aggressor¹ : ²TFG / Majic 12¹

³ Your name,group and function ?
¹
   - 'ebba ! Ich bin Circulator and I'm besides mail- and  modemtrading  also
   doing a little organising. I am a male (no shit !) and I  guess I have the
   same interests as  most  other 16  years old  dudes : partying, computing,
   girlfriends, taekwondo and so on.

³ How long time have you had your Amiga ?
¹
   - I have had  my Amiga since the  begining of 1988, but I have had several
   breaks  in computing since then. I was  also only playing games during the 
   first years ! The  first copy-party I ever visited was  the Bamiga  Sector
   1/Warfalcons-party in February '89 ! - the  only reason  why I  went there 
   was that one of my friends just had become a member of Warfalcons. 

³ Which other groups have you been in before ?
¹   - Just to mention some of the groups I've been in ... : 
   Arcane, Flash Production (hi crazy dudes !), Rebels, Palace (yo Alf & Drac
   + the rest !) and  now since  May '91 Silents (- and I  do intend to  stay
   in Silents !) 

³ How many contacts do you have ?
¹
   - 3#87.11b ... hard to say ?! Approximately around 50 dudes ! (- and  that
   is  far  to many  for me !) I'm  probably gonna  cut down  on my amount of
   contacts soon in order to get more time  to  modemtrade  and  to  get more
   sparetime in general, but let's see ...

³ Why did you join Silents and not another group ?
¹
   - Lots of reasons ! (Silents = old legend, nice demos, I already knew Lord
   Dredd + Gizmo = easy 2 get  in ... ) And  I'm  quite  satisfied with  that
   choice.

³ Tell a bit about coming productions from Silents ?
¹
   - These are some of the coming releases from Silents :
   Global Trash II (made together with Crionics), The  Power  & Glory-trackmo
   , a new demo by the french section, a  dentro  which  was  supposed to  be
   released  at  the  Lowlife  '91-party, and a   project  to be shown at the 
   Anarchy/Quartex/Silents-party this christmas (! TOP SECRET !).

³ Your copy-party was cancelled.Why ?
¹
   - Because of economical reasons ( - not very exact, but ... ).

 ³Will you make a new party this year or later ?
¹
   - Silents has joined the staff behind the christmas party in Denmark this
   year. The party  is (if you already didn't know) going to  be arranged by
   Anarchy and Quartex and now also the Silents has been involved as one the
   organizing groups. It  will among  other things  feature : a bar, lots of
   space for  everyone, big  competition prices, the  usual amount  of  high 
   quality demos released at a cool danish party + a lot  of other  things -
   for more info get your hands on an invitation or check  out the  official
   invitation-demo which was released  a week ago.

³ How much money do you spend on modem and swapping etc. every month ?
¹
   - It  differs  quite much (depends on  how active  I am ...) - about  600
   danish kroner ! ( - which I earn back by selling  demos  and  stuff  like
   that !)
 
 ³What do you think about the danish modem-scene ?
¹
   - To boring to be mentioned ! No, actually there are not that many boards
   yet, but I think the danish modem-scene will develop fast within the next
   months !

³ What's your opinion about the "modems destoys the scene"talk ?
¹   - I think that the scene has got both advantages and disadvantages as the
   hst modems entered. There are probably many opinions about that ! 

 ³ Why did you continue with mail-swapping when you got your modem ?
¹
   - I'm NOT like some maniacs up- and downloading 24 hours  a day (actually
   I'm mostly calling around in the weekends) and therefore I still want  to
   get  demos & games by  mail - it is still  a nice way of getting stuff, I
   think !)

 ³What do you think about the "Friendship-movement"
¹
   - I have nothing against  the "Friendship-movement", but  I either  don't
   find the group(s) who found it better than others ! I don't even know  if
   it's still existing ? ... 

³ What's your opinion about cracking ?
¹
   - I personally have nothing against  the cracker groups  and I also think
   that they are  a (more - or less) important  part  of the scene. It would
   on the other side also  be very bad if the major software houses left the
   Amiga-market completely  as a consequence of  games being cracked  before
   releasedate and so on so I will leave this question ananswered.

³ What's your opinion about the development in the scene in the past year.
 ¹Is it worser or better than it was a year ago ?

   - I don't think I am the right person  to ask this question  as I haven't
   been  involved in the  scene for several years -  and therefore I haven't
   been able to feel/notice the development.

   Please state your favourite:
   Groups       : Phenomena, Fairlight
   Demos        : Enigma/Phenomena, Cube-o-matic/Spreadpoint
   Boards       : Hard to say ...
   Mags         : Maggy (KEWL articles !), Stolen Data, Zine, Hack-mag
   Copy-Parties : The Dexion X-mas Conference 1990
   Drinks/Booze : Tequila, Bacardi, DANISH Tuborg beers
   Women        : Every good-looking scandinavian blonde !
 
³ What do you think about the incredible amount of disk-mags in the scene,and 
 will Silents make a diskmag,too ?
¹
   - No, Silents won't release a diskmag. Some diskmags are  worth reading -
   some ain't ! (he, he) I just don't read the one's that I find  lame  and/
   or uninteresting !

³ Okay,we have reached the end.Now you can say whatever you want to !!
