INTERVIEW WITH AVALON / CELTIC 47 ! ICE: HI HO !!! TELL ME WHO YOU ARE (NAME & GROUP) !!! INTRODUCE YOURSELF ... CELTIC:Well, I am Avalon of Celtic. Here some data about me, even if they don't interest you. I was born on the 28th of november 1969 (yes, I'm 20) in Oppeln/Poland (Polish Power, hehe). When I was 11 we settled down in West-Germany. Living for some years in the capitalism I discovered the computers. At first of all I bought of course a C64. I wasn't confronted with the scene for a long time, so I only played games and was satisfacted. 2 years ago I bought an A500. I just continued playing games and started swapping. At this time I was a big loser, so I hadn't very many and very good contacts. One day I got fed up with playing games and so I started to code my first demo. Well, it was quite difficult in the beginning, but after 2 months I managed to finish it (I was a member of Avoid Int. at this time). I wrote some more demoes and got many friends in the scene. ICE: OH, I SEE YOU'RE A COOL GUY, TELL ME ABOUT YOUR ACTIVITIES IN THIS GROUP! CELTIC:As you can see, I'm coder and swapper in CELTIC. But I would like to stop nearly all swapping to have more time for coding. But on the other hand I wanna get all the cool demoes, so if there's anybody who has enough money to become a good swapper, he should contact us !!!! ICE: ARE THERE ANY FUTURE-PRODUCTS FROM YOUR GROUP IN THE NEXT TIME ?? IF YES TELL ABOUT IT ! CELTIC:Yes, of course there are. At the moment I'm working on three things.... The first is a new menue for our well known CELTIC PIONEER CDs. This shouldn't take very much of my time. The second project is a very big demo, 2 disx which will contain many new ideas, very well coded routines, excellent graphics and fabulous sounds. So get it !!!! If my monitor won't fuck up too often it should be ready to the AmigaExpo in Cologne. The third project is an action-game with some new features and very fast routines, which means a very cool gameplay. You should be able to see a preview of this at the AmigaExpo, too. ICE: WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THESE FUCKING RELEASES OF TOO MANY DISK-MAGAZINES ARE YOU GOING TO START A MAG ,TOO ??? CELTIC:Of course we'll start a mag !!!! (Just joking) There are to many mags in the Amiga-scene. Some of them are very good, those like Zine, HackMag, 4th Dimension and DISC. But the most of them are pure shit !!!! (Hey Zico, what do you wanna do with this axe ?????) I hope that this one will have an own concept and won't just be a copy of another mag. ICE: YEAH , WHAT A COOL STORY ... IS THERE ANY LOCAL SCENE NEAR YOUR TOWN ?(IS YOUR NEIGHBOUR SOMEONE LIKE PARADOX OR SKID ROW? OR ARE THERE ONLY SOME LONLEY LAMERS ?) TELL ABOUT IT ... CELTIC:Paradox or Skid Row ??? No, we have no guys here who are known as well as these ones. At my hometown there is only one guy who was a member of Tarkus Team (Butcher), but he has stopped nearly all his activities. But not very far away, there is a cool guy called Guardian who is a member of UNITED FORCES. We are very good friends and we made some meetings in the past with beer, Amigas and no girls !?!?!?! Another good friend is Coke of RSI, he's the sysop of the TOUCHDOWN BBS and he's a very cool guy, too. And of course there are many local lamers, but who cares ??? ICE: DOES YOUR GROUP HAVE ANY BBS ??? IF YES,LEAVE NAME AND NUMBER AND TELL ME SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR MONTHLY PHONEBILL...ARE YOU RICH ??? CELTIC:We will open a BBS here in Germany very soon (perhaps it is opened when you read this) It will run with an A2000, a 14400 baud modem and a 80 mb harddisk. So look out for the number !!!! My monthly phonebill isn't higher than 100 german marks, but this should be enough coz I'm only a stupid pupil, so I haven't very much money. And as I'm swapper, too, I can't imagine to be rich ever in the near or distant future. ICE: OK, HERE WE GO FOR THE LAST QUESTION... ARE YOU GOING TO COPY-PARTYS ?,OR ARE YOU GOING TO START AN OWN PARTY IN THE FUTURE ??? CELTIC:We won't start a copy-party this year because this means too much work and spending of money. But I love parties, coz you can meet there all these cool guys you know and you don't know. But there are still too many lamers who just go to a party to start X-COPY and to get all the latest cracks from group X and group Y. But the really cool people know that business is shit !!!!! ICE: NOW HERE COMES THE VERY LAST QUESTION...WHO IS THE MOST ALCOHOLIC IN YOUR GROUP, OR ARE THERE ONLY ALCOHOLICS ??? CELTIC:A human who is no alcoholic never will get the chance to become a member of CELTIC (hicks) We all love german beer (hichs) And tha beast isz off courze WARSTEINER (hiegktsz). vell, ei sink ai vill ztop nau....
