Hmph What a boring month and school sucks By - Who do you think dumbass ! Howdy cowboys and cowgirls they had rodeo week here a couple weekends ago and I m still recovering ! This month pretty much sucked At least for me during this wonderful Rodeo week we had I rear-ended some old man driving a tank err an el camino Caused $3100 in damage to my front end and left a mark of paint on his bumper At least he didn t go into fits of eppeleptic seizures(sp) Anyways oh this is the ALIVE article that s right Publicity for us - This month we had a corruption #3 article lined up but when psyco child lost his 800 I lost the time to call grin So the official corruption #3 article on the alive history - is now the official corruption #4 article Iridium article as well was planned - but I finish writing the sucker and I call ShadowLands can t connect all of a sudden Then I try the next day - line s disconnected Anyone know what s going on over there If someone wants to call up my board and get the two articles feel free New Members - This month saw the welcomed addition of a few new members First off was Illusive Criminal s complete welcome in from a somewhat sketchy standing last month Next Biscuit a previous no-name has joined us - and he s great This dude will turn some heads so keep an eye on him But of course Einstein One day I was cruising my local VBBS board on VNET and of course on ANSI ELITE is that a paradox or irony or what when I see EN posting that he isn t going to join the union empire merger Hmph I think So I sift through an old empire pack for a board number or two I call up Straight No Chaser on accident - PsycoTrane s board and ask for a voice No go but I do have Falling Fast s number EN s own board Called it up left him email he joined alive In the process PsycoTrane previously of empire told me that he wasn t going to union either ed note why was empire so anti-union not that i m complaining but it s interesting that s all Soon PT calls my board u ls an application and is a member Cool a lit guy now we can have some multi-media productions graphics AND literary prowess =) The other thing this month - was the re-establishment of contact with Mr Sinister ours not the ex-tribe one and picking up one of his works It s for Legion of Silence which has overall dropped out of contact with us but nonetheless it s for you SD New Site for 6 94 - Well last month I said that sites were going out to friends on an invite only basis Ok maybe not I forgot we only had two canadian boards and RipTide of Nation called me up with a application We talked and I decided it would be good to pick up one last canadian site MaelStrom in 905 is now an alive board We regretfully inform the public that we ve dropped Sushi Bar Z What happened to this guy Did he fall of the edge of the planet Sushmeister - you were like our very FIRST site and we haven t heard from you in 6 months did you get shot in compton or If Sushi X reads this and is still interested in an alive site he can call up PR and chat with me on the issue and we ll work something back out There is also a certain board run by a certain sysop in a certain ac like 413 who happens to be a nation whq and who would like to think he s an alive site Too bad this sucker hasn t called me back =) Now by the chance that he does call me back perhaps such things as him being added to the site list could happen To Hammer in 413 - Sorry man I have to do what I promised first =( Requests during 6 94 - ALiVE has a request to put out I recently have aquired an account on the internet via Delphi oh joy ren And I m now a certified IRC junkie but Delphi is gay There is no DCC ing and it s not UNIX based so I can t run bots Our request is this - could someone setup and run an ALiVEBot for us on channel #ALiVE Just have the bot log all the messages and send it to me each day in email or however it works If you re interested in taking us up on the deal - mail me at massdelusion@delphi com Thanks Oh and I can be found on #acid #ice #alive but mainly #ice And thanks to quazar for his help on this subject BTW I JUST found an account to use muhaha #alive #alive #alive #alive #alive =) *** TRADITION *** Tradition you ask No not the normal kind well that too but it s actually a mag A mag you ask No it s not a normal mag to compete with the countless others What s the difference Well Tradition is COMPLETELY alive based It s about alive by alive on alive and for alive We don t plug other groups other artists or non-alive boards (not very often) The point It s just about our six-month anniversary and we want to do something special to show how much we ve improved This mag is not intended to be a regular production like Corruption or Iridium (as regular as they ve ever been anyways =) but more like a bi-annual production probably It s going to showcase our work the few best works from each pack It s going to have articles on the past present and future alive by each member But best of all - it s not generic We ve taken a new idea and incorporated it into our mag interface We ve been seeing lots of side-scrolling ansi s lately right Tribe and Crisis had some of the first then Acid had a really sweet ASM one by Tasmaniac Well our interface is SIDE SCROLLING In fact my interface is a huge Tradition font that is approxiamately 200 columns wide (2 1 2 Screens) We ll be using a standard Iridium styled pulldown but you ll scroll sideways with the choices on top Neeto huh Just wait - it should be out this month sometime providing school gets out and we get to it Summer - It s 3 51 right now AM I should be studying for a government test and doing my physics homework Oh well I m writing an info file for a computer art group =) This summer is going to be a major stress reliever and will bring a higher echelon of work from alive We ll all really be able to concetrate for once and our packs should get even better Hopefully y all twang! will be around to check it out md alive te94 suck cor I greet therefore I m cool ALiVE Art Productions Love ya all men you guys made it happen variation stop working and give me that damned ansi of mine thee 3rd busy huh i know the feeling =) byteman thanks for helping the viewer along ascnesion thanks for being so busy j k the prosecutor krazi karma you guys are great can t wait to get it out minor threat hmmm alive just maybe just maybe and let s trade calvins quazar uhhh ALiVEBot LargeCoke psst do you know this one guy rad man yeah I heard that =) the guardian good god all these greets later shouldn t i get an ansi CRiSiS and i never even got an ansi sheesh =( Neurotic Neurotic put your hands all over my err hmmm scuse me Shasta Union High School District umm you like uhh suck irc #acid #ice #vi #bad #shiver but what about #alive ) syntax error where s da merge !
