new credit needed
just wondering if people think we should have a new credit title added which should be INTRO
as alot of cracks i have seen someone has been credited with the intro for a crack and you cant add that to a release

every intro has a different scrolltext at least and we're not going to add all of those as separate intros, are we? it's why we have the crack release type. |

err no, scrolltext should be obvious
however, anything else should....else it would be kinda hard to draw the line. whats a new intro? is a new logo enough? a new tune? a new logo, tune, and colors? or what? :) |

new intro: new gfx
not new intro: different tune
I dont see a problem in adding multiple music credits to an intro, like I've done here: Success Intro 07 |

I think this can be derived from the release date.
Also, I don't think this should be a credit, as it can not be attached to a scener.
This is good info for 'trivia'. |

I was wondering, do we have to make a new entry for a crack intro every time a bit or byte is changed? (for instance, different tune or logo)
I stumbled upon this when I checked the Turtles intro in front of Kamikaze. Rough created a new entry for it (Turtles Intro), but there was allready a 'released as intro' entry (Turtles Intro 2) only with different music than the one used for Kamikaze.
Discussion is unneccessary, I simply overlooked Violator's Turtles Intro entry, of course intros will not be added just because of another tune or charset.
I even don't make extra entries if just that the logo is changed, for that case I put a second screenshot in the comments. For me it is a different intro when there is enhanced code e.g. Triad Intro from Mr.Z and the advanced version from Janitor. |

Mace: I wish I had more energy at the moment to describe this to you. Maybe someone else will.
First release = original scene, it isn't "trivia" but paramount (and often neglected by the modern and in some cases naive scene :)) |

I think this is where demoscene and cracking scene clash.
I can see it's of importance, but it's a bit beyond me to make a fuzz about it, sorry.
Kind of 'harsh' to say it's naive, to be honest, but let's not go there in this thread :) |

it's quite comparable with party results for the demoscene.
if you think who was first with a game is just a bit of trivia, then yes, that's a bit naive ;) |

it also can't really be derived from releasedates. quite often the official firstrelease wasnt actually the first release =) |
