Dear Frank, we once cried together over how January 2011 left deep scars and changed us both. Sadly, I have not seen you in years, but the day we spent reminiscing about what happened in 2011, all those years later, was one of the most positive gifts I ever received in my life. It eased one of the worst pains in the world by sharing it with you. Hearing the news today, I came here to share my deepest condolences with your family and friends and to make sure people know what a positive impact your life had on others. Thank you, Frank. Forever grateful. Tim |

That was some really sad and unexpected news.
Although I was not really close with Tuffi, I first met him at Evoke 2012 and we had quite different personalities, but we always got along pretty well with each other when we met at some party. Years ago we made an agreement to play a back to back DJ-set at some party but it never came to be. And now it won't happen anymore.
RIP Tuffi |

Frank was one of the most intimate people I have ever come across in the scene. Loved for his classic Asperger's and his social streak, which was so sensitive despite everything, the asshole pussy Pillemann Sau, who had his heart in the right place. I really loved getting into Discord and hitting his fucking ass in the video chat. One of the people you still find lovable as a misanthrope. Shit, I could think of a bunch of people who deserve more to step down like that. Guy You're one of the few people I'll really miss.
I sacrificed a few beers especially for you.

Oh Jesus Christ.. Not Tuffy! :_(
He was one of my favourite people in the scene, and there are many great fun memories I have with and of him..
..hanging out with him at CeBit (must've been 2006 or so), meeting some random UK guy outside the Oktoberfest tent when smoking that asked him if he had been DJing UK hardcore in England a decade ago...
..him projecting pr0n onto the ceiling at Breakpoint when Scamp was showing the official Bingen delegation around the party..
..when he sold *all* his bitcoins years ago (he had started mining very very early on when you could still find new bitcoins!), I think it was a three digit number, to pay for his trip to X...
..when he proudly showed around the DTV Gameboy he had built on X (he built a DTV into almost everything!)..
I'll never forget hanging out with you and drinking on parties.. Thank you for your awesome contributions to the scene, be it on c64, DTV or VC20! YOU WILL BE GREATLY MISSED, not just by me! |

I am very grateful for the decades of friendship we shared and
you will never be forgotten.
I think about our boozing-sessions,
your maximally annoying BAMBAMBAM! breakfast-hammerfist performance on X,
your terrible music-taste and
all those moments we shared with tears in my eyes.
I still can not believe that it is actually true
that you are gone.
Rest in peace, good friend, and send greets
to MBB and Acryd once you meet them.

Frank had released a tiny 256 bytes demo called "Z-rasterbar" back in 2011 and
I had squeezed it into 128 bytes calling it "Z-rasterbar 128" the following day.
It was the only product Frank and i shared credits together. When i heard
Frank's passing away, this demo effect popped up in my head imagining Frank
appearing over the horizon of his own lovely colorful 3d sliding raster bars
with a beer in his hand surrounded by clouds.
Here is my tribute to Frank's memory.

This is a true loss and incredibly sad...
I recall that I started to meet him regularly ever since a maximum overdose party 20 years ago where he won the compo.
Had many great chats at parties and online over the years. My thoughts are with his very close friends he made in the scene. You will be remembered for very very long, Frank! |
