Bitchin ANSi Design Presents The July 1993 BADPack This month in BAD has been a very INTERESTING one to say the least Many things have happened and most of them prolonged the compilation of the pack BUT it finally has happened and we now present you with this quality piece of artwork Before I go too far be sure to take this chance (if you re not already) to load up BAD-0793 EXE With it you will see some amazing ANSi graphics and coding Also you will be able to view both this file and the member and site listings Special thanks to Number Cruncher for taking the time to code this He is as most of you know an ANSi artist but took time off to do some coding I know there s quite a few bugs in this but I think we did a pretty good job and the bugs should be out next time If you haven t seen any bugs yet wait till you check out the Site Listing Ok now let s get to the nitty gritty of what has been so interesting this month First off after putting the last BADPack together I noticed that I left out the highly praised BAD Application Generator So I then tried to distribute it along with the pack But that was one of the least of my problems I also remembered that I forgot to put Squirrel s last ANSi (that he did for BAD anyway) into the pack So this month both are in the pack We ve also experienced the merging problems that many groups have when trying to become larger After grabbing and looking through the EViL ANSi Pack I applied my board for a distribution site Soon afterwards G-MoNeY (head honcho at EViL) approached me and asked me what I thought about a merge of two groups He told me that keeping the name of BAD was just fine since EViL was thought up quickly and hastily Of course since the quality of EViL was so high (and I expect it still is) I agreed to this idea Unfortunately after trying to contact him to get the final touches (and ANSi s nonetheless) I cannot find out what has happened to the whole idea So maybe next month EViL and BAD will be as one Also near the end of the month I was approached by Zodiac who wanted to know if BAD wanted to merge with SoLo Not having heard of them before I asked for a sample of their work In it I got some nice ANSi s and a huge SVGA loader Since my moniter is such a piece of shit I was not able to view it but two other members of BAD said it was amazing So I then told Zodiac that it would be great to merge with SoLo Again while trying to finish up the final touches it seems as if contact was terminated So maybe next month EViL SoLo and BAD will be as one But not all is BAD in the world of BAD some of it is actually bitchin We have a new member named Jesa He s a new and young artist but he shows good promise and every new ANSi he does is better than the last So you should be seeing more of him soon Now I d like to remind everyone of what BAD is STILL looking for We re looking for new artists (be it ANSi VGA or even poets) coders musicians and couriers After ripping two songs this month I d like it if we could get some original stuff out If you are in charge of a large group or are just a member and are interested in joinging BAD contact me at the WHQ and I m sure something can be worked out BAD is also looking for an 800 VMB It d be used as a request line and to tell everyone the current BAD news (no pun intended) I m sure this would make things much easier for people to contact us We would like to welcome The Black Gate as our Western HQ We also have SEVERAL more distribution sites If you wish to become a dist site or an HQ fill out the BADAPP and send it to the WHQ and then check back in a few days Most all sites are approved unless there is already a site in the areacode I d like to announce the addition of another part of the members list Since BAD is a relatively small group any and all help we get is always appreciated and ever since Section 8 has left for iCE he s done whatever he can to help out and look out for BAD So the members list will now include a Special Members section where people like Section 8 who have helped out BAD time and time again will be listed to show that they are a part of BAD and do things for us even if they aren t represented in the pack Well that s about all I have to say Sorry again about the delay of the pack but at least I could see all the other groups ANSi s beforehand so I could greet them on their quality At any rate see ya around laTeR Black Knight BAD Senior Member Greets go out to Section 8 Thanks A LOT for the info and advice Persecutor Contact me when you want to do an ANSi Squirrel Sorry bout the delay but it kept them on their toes!
