MIST NOVEMBER 1994 INFORMATION:
Note: This was originally intended to be a coupla articles for Kithe.
However, as time constraints and the dilemma of dinner versus mist
crept ever nearer, it was decided to just throw everything leftover
into a big ole text file, like the big boys do.
As was the original purpose of this text, I URGE you STRONGLY to unzip
KITHE2.ZIP included in the archive RIGHT NOW and read it 20 times. OK, you can stop now. But its a valuable source of information for anyone
interested in mist contains our member and site lists, entertaining,
and has a new MUSIC PLAYING FEATURE! w-o-w. So, go out and unzip it
today. And while youre at it, check out QT-MIST1.ZIP... a bouncy
.BIN Mist promo. Boy, can our dad beat yours at bowling or what?
Also of note, our viewer isnt screwed up massively this time, so all
the pieces of artwork should do fine under it except ALLEYCAT.MOD...
it makes my printer shart going crazy. So be warned...
As to the site listing, all the boards with Net next to them
indicates that, although the boards do not currently have kitschnet up
and running, they will shortly. Hopefully 8
Lit... if you dont like it, dont read it, but dont complain about it cause there are those of us who DO like it. Besides, youre grouping
us all together, and thats being narrow-minded. So read lit, and
become enlightened. Blah.
To get info on mist, in quebec, talk to Eerie... on the internet,
you should be able to find Dr. CPU, White Insanity, and others cruising the IRC in ansi, art, and, best of all, mist...
For you non-net-surfers, call The Screaming Tomato 604430-8805.
Nitty will be there on call to answer most questions, and I respond
to mail there within one day...
Last of all sheesh, I havent even started the article yet... this
really shouldve gone in kithe, I have been forced to retract my
terms of being willing to merge that I stated in last months pack.
Though I am willing to merge, the artists arent, so, sorry, Shiver.
And now... the actual ARTICLE! Yaayyyayyay!
1 NEW MEMBERS / OLD MEMBERS WELCOMED IN / KICKED OUT:
NEW MEMBERS:
Yog, Purple Haze, Excrement-Eater are all honourary lit members, me
having found them on Als House of Meats, home of the imagination
liberation front. Good board. Call it for REAL art.
Phaze yes, the guy who drew that neat turkey last month and got us
misters a buck off admission for New Media 94, yes, him. and
Red Scorpion are welcomed into our ANSI drawing department.
Professor Pukoid is welcomed into our music department...
And Illusionary Enigma is welcomed BACK into our music department as
well...
DEAD MEMBERS:
Darkseid, Visionary, and Archangel have been KICKED OUT due to
inactivity. You COULDA called, guys. Sheesh.
Addidas quit to join RAiD, which he was recently kicked out of because
of ripping. Sheesh... some people never learn.
Soul of Allusion er... well, lets just say that he caused a few
internal security problems...
THIS MONTHS GUEST ARTISTS:
Admiral Skuttlebutt, even though he quit, has decided to be amicable
and so THIS month we feature some of his music... whee!
Also, we have a sample of lit from Mars Blakminder. Woo hoo.
2 DISCLAIMER:
All the art contained within this archive, withstanding the text files
used as seperaters which have been RIPPED all credits go to whomever
wrote them, are the property of the individual who created it and all
rights are to them. To clarify: If anyone uses our stories and such
in english essays, well come over to your house and throw burning
hamsters at you. And if youre still standing, well get our top-notch
team of lawyers to push your mama over into a big mud puddle.
There, that pleased Nitty and Eoanya all in one disclaimer.
3 WANTED:
This is where I beg and grovel for unaffiliated as of this time
people to consider the mist alternative.
This months selection of people we have to be nice to include:
Sniper, for lit. Yes, we know youre doing ANSI for relic, but that
harmoon lit you did for distorted was what initially inspired
me.
The Digital Necromancer. We hope that THIS pack will be enough to let
you make an informed decision between mist and raid.
All former members of the Shiver lit department. We know its a cold
world out there for lit writers, and wed welcome you with open
arms.
Zorlak. Yep... you did pretty good lit, too. What? we dont have ENOUGH lit members as it is? Well, theyre all good, and thats good
enough for me.
Former members of Drift. Anyone interested in coming back to some of us
old NWA members and having a reunion?
Colouche. Hey ho. Ive heard youre sick of the scene, but wed love
to have you and get some of the old imp guys back... leading to
Reznor and The Drowning Man. I cant believe I havent seen your names
on any memberlists so far... beg beg PLEEEAD.
Voodoo. We can finally collaborate on that Blistering Heights thingy.
Young. Join Relic, fucker! That was for eerie.
Former members of Nation and Tribe. Sure, youre probably all in Dark
and Ice by now, and were too puny to consider. But I had to make the
offer at least or else I might be kicking myself later...
4 WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN THE FUTURE:
Well, Christmas is coming up, and youll be seeing some special
projects from us a music disk hopefully, and more, but, as a result,
less general art. Sorry to dissappoint you.
5 GREETS, SALUTATIONS, AND LOW THROATY SNARLS:
Only a few greets this month...
TABnet: Happy 1st!
Mister Secret Spy Person: We dont like you, whoever you are.
Raid: usage of the above was a low blow.
Reality and Revolt: Although your purpose is admirable, I hope you
realize that the only people who read your packs are other lit
writers... were a dieing breed, I tell you...
Toothbrush Condensed: Demos with a GUS Max and a CGA card! YESSS!
6 WHY THE HELL WAS THE PACK SO LATE? DID ANYONE EVEN NOTICE?:
Well... we were kinda basking in the outstanding praise from our first
pack too much lit! the viewers screwed up! by the time we
realized that we had squandered 3 of the precious 4 weeks lazing
around. Add that to school, 4 meets, and lots of politics stuff, and
you arrive at a very frenetic last week. In fact, to show my leadership loyalty type spirit for the group, as soon as I finish writing this
article, Im gonna write a lit. I do all my best work on deadline,
anyway. Besides, otherwise I wouldnt have anything IN! Ack! Well,
the time is 10:39 pm, November 21st. Wish me luck...
7 HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Almost forgot... this month we wish salutatory benefices to DArtagnan, Eerie, and Mavrik. Hats off to you, and many happy returns.
8 THIS IS TOO LONG
So Im gonna sign off, now, do my lit, and .ZIP this bastard up for
release. Gnite, folks...
