CODING BY EPSILON, GRAPHICS BY PAL AND MUSIC BY FEGOLHUZZ. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP GUYS! YOU´RE REALLY AWESOME. <3 MORPHEUS HERE AT THE KEYS... SO, I´LL BE BRIEF BECAUSE WE HAVE SOME AWESOME GUEST WRITERS IN THIS DEMO, GUEST WRITERS THAT HAVEN´T WRITTEN A SCROLLTEXT IN 35 YEARS. AND IF YOU KNOW ME WELL, YOU KNOW THAT I LOVE BOTH WRITING AND READING SCROLLTEXTS. SO, WE MET AT THE LIFFEY IN OLD TOWN FOR FOOD AND BEERS, AND THESE ARE THE GUYS THAT ATTENDED... THIS IS SMC/P.L (EX HZ) AND MASTERMIND/HORIZON MEETING WITH FRIENDS AT A LOCAL PUB IN STOCKHOLM. LOTS OF OLD LEGENDS HERE AND GOOD TO RE-VISIT OLD MEMORIES. WHEN THINGS STARTED FOR US WE WROTE OUR FIRST SCROLLTEXT TOGETHER. SOME 35+ YEARS LATER WE´RE DOING IT AGAIN. THERE ARE LEGENDS, AND THEN THERE´S MR.Z. OH HELL YEAH A PLACE THIS IS! BEST OF COMPANY AND ALL THE TALENT IN ONE PLACE!!! AND THERE IS SOME SECRET MEMORY MAGIC TECH INVOLVED HERE - PEOPLE KNOW AND REMEMBER STUFF I COULD ONLY DREAM OF HAVING REMEMBERED - SO COOL. NEXT TIME, MAYBE WE SHOULD DO A LITTLE JSR AND PUT SOME MOOSE ON THE BBQ (NOTE: ANALOG TERM) - CHEERS FROM JONAS, 3D/TRIAD. SOME THIRTY YEARS AFTER ME SENDING OFF MY LAST C64S IT IS NOTHING BUT FUN TO TYPE UP A SCROLL TEXT AGAIN. I WAS BACK THEN AND I STILL GO BY THE NICK NAME BAGDER IN MANY PLACES. THE TEAM WE BUILT BACK IN THE LATE 1980S STILL EXISTS TODAY AT LEAST IN PARTIAL FORMS AS FRIENSHIPS CREATED BACK THEN HAVE SURIVED. THE DEMO GROUP WE CALLED HORIZON BACK IN THE DAY CONSISTED OF A TEAM OF INDIVIDUALS WHO THOUGHT PROGRAMMING AND HACKING WAS AMONG THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE AND THOSE VALUES HAVE TO A LARGE FREE REMAINED WITH US AND WE ALL KEEP DEVELOPING TO THIS DAY. AT WORK, AND AFTER WORK. CONTINUE TO DO WHAT IS FUN. ENJOY LIFE, ENJOY COMPUTERS AND CHEERS EVERYONE. LIFE CAN BE GOOD. C64 WAS THE SHIT! BUT THAT WAS IN THE PAST. FORTY YEARS LATER AND WE ARE NOT SO YOUNG ANY MORE. SOME ARE A BIT DEAF AND BLIND AND WE HAVE TO SHOUT TO EACH OTHER. BUT DEEP IN OUR SOUL IT FEELS LIKE TIME HAS STOOD STILL AND NOTHING HAS CHANGED. WE ARE STILL COMPUTER-NERD PEOPLE, ENJOYING THE COMPANY OF LIKE-MINDED PEERS, LAUGHING AT JOKES THAT NO-ONE ELSE UNDERSTANDS. LONG LIVE THE C64! GREETINGS FROM Z TO MORPHEUS FOR MAKING THIS MEETING HAPPEN. HEEEEEEYYY, ZAGOR/HZ HERE. I HAVEN´T WRITTEN A SCROLL TEXT IN, WHAT, 35 YEARS? LET´S SEE IF I REMEMBER HOW. TIME FLIES, BEARDS GRAY AND BROWS CREASE BUT THE HEARTS OF YOUR TRUE FRIENDS STAY FOREVER GOLDEN. MORPHEUS IS SOME KIND OF TIME GOD, REMEMBERING DETAILS OF THE PAST THAT FEW OF US HAVE IN CRISP RECALL. BUT IT´S MASSIVELY FUN SEEING THE FACES AND REMEMBERING THE TIMES OF THE PAST. ENJOY LIFE, DO WHAT IS FUN AND ALWAYS, ALWAYS, KEEP HACKING. HELLO HELLO, DUSSIN IS AT THE TABLE. I THINK IT WAS A WHILE SINCE I WAS WRITING SCROLL TEXTS LIKE THIS, BUT THAN TEH SPELING WAZ WORZE. WAS JUST HANDED THE COMMODORE 64, SO WRITING ON THIS CRAPPY KEYBOARD AGAIN. THANKS TO MOFFAN FOR ARRANGING THIS BEER NIGHT, WITH LOTS OF GREAT SINGALONG GUITAR NOISE AMBIENCE, BUT GREAT COMPANY WITH FELLOW 6502 GEEKS. SO CLOSE TO WRITE THIS TEXT IN HEXADECIMAL, TO PUT IT TO ANY USE AT ALL. GREETZ, K12 / WHATEVER. HI THERE! THIS IS REALLY A FANTASTIC GATHERING. LOTS OF OLD FRIENDS, SOME I MEET REGULARLY AND SOME I HAVEN´T SEEN IN A LONG TIME. IT´S NICE TO TALK ABOUT THE GOOD OLD TIMES WE HAD! FOR ME PARTICIPATING IN THE C64 WORLD WAS A GREAT START IN WHAT WAS TO BECOME MY WHOLE CAREER, AND I GUESS THAT IS TRUE FOR MANY AROUND THIS TABLE. A FUN QUOTE FROM TONIGHT WAS ONE PERSON SAYING "I FIRST LEARNT CODING IN ASSEMBLY" AND THE REPLY WAS "WE ALL DID", WHICH IS TRUE. STAY C64! THE LEADER / TLR YO, WHAT AN EVENING WITH A LOT OF OLD FRIENDS FROM THE 64-SCENE IN A PUB IN STOCKHOLM. FIRST TIME IN LIKE 35 YEARS I WRITE A SCOLLTEXT. GREETNING TO EVERY ONE THAT REMEMBER INJUN, AND ALL THE NICE FIRENDS OUT THERE. AS YOU KNOW I´M NOT ACTIVE ON THE SCENE TO TODAY, BUT LOVE THAT MORPHEUS MADE THIS EVENT FOR US. STAY SAFE, AND HAVE FUN. CHEEEEERS BR INJUN HELLO FRIENDS, HAPPY TO BE HERE WITH OLD FARTS, GREY OR NO HAIR, BUT STILL BRAINS AND A LOT OF FUN. THANK YOU MORPHEUS FOR INVITING ME TO THIS GREAT EVENT. LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT YEAR, CHEERS! /METAL MANIAC ANOTHER YEAR HAVE PASSED, TIME TO ONCE AGAIN MEET UP WITH OLD FRIENDS FROM THE SCENE, TALKING, LAUGHING AND SHARING NEW AND NOT SO NEW MEMORIES. SOME ARE STILL HAUNTING THE SCENE WITH RELEASES, OTHER THRIVE ON MEMORIES, AND WAR STORIES OF ALL KINDS ARE SHARED. IT IS ONE OF THOSE OCCASIONS THAT LIGHTS UP THE WINTER DARKNESS. KEEP THE SPIRIT HIGH /RICO I WAS TOLD I SHOULD NOT MISS THIS EVENT. I DIDN´T! MANY PEOPLE AROUND THE TABLE, SOME WHOM I HAVE NEVER MET AND OTHERS THAT´S BEEN TOO LONG. ALL TOO AWSUM. FIRST GUY I NOTICED WAS INJUN. I STILL HAVE HIS MOVING OUT LETTER, FROM LIKE 93. IT STATES HE´LL CALL ME WHEN HE HAS HOOKED UP HIS C64. NO, HE HASN´T "CALLED ME" YET HAHAH... GREAT TO SEE THE CREATOR OF ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE DEMOS: LICKPIPE! DAW, YOU´RE THE MAN. REMAKE COMING UP! STAY KOOL DUDES! AND WHERE THE FK IS SIR EPSILON? TRASHER WOW THIS IS A LONG SCROLLTEXT YOU PROBABLY THIS NEVER READ THIS. HELLOOOO FROM DAW OF TRIAD DRINKIN BEAR WITH THESE SCENERS FROM THE OLD DAYS... WHAT CAN I SAY - SO NICE BEING HERE AND JUST TALKIN BOUT THE TIME THAT WAS THEN. WHAT MORE TO SAY? C64 EVER! YEOW! WRITING A SCROLLTEXT IS ALWAYS FUN. I ASSUME THE DEMOPART IS AS COOL AS THE PEOPLE WRITING THIS SCROLLER. THANK MOFFE FOR THIS GATHERING AND LET´S DO IT AGAIN SOON. AND YOU GUYS WHO MISSED THIS, YOU ARE KICKED! / PROBE OF ANTIC HOWDY HACKERS! CONTRIBUTING TO A SCROLLET AFTER A CHRISTMAS TABLE AND A NUMBER OF BEERS WITH THE NERD PALS MIGHT NOT BE A GOOD IDEA BUT LET´S JUST ADMIT THAT I JUST LOVE BOTH. HAVING BEEN AROUNF THE SCENE FOR DECADES ALL THAT REMAINS ARE THE RELATIONS AND THE HISTORY WE HAVE TOGETHER- GOSH WE ARE BLESSED HAVING THE COLL FRIENDS WE HAVE. LONG LIVE THE SCENE LONG LIVE US! /BACCHUS OF THE EVERGREEN FAIRLIGHT - RULERS OF ALL SCENES... AAAND ON THAT DISCRETE STATEMENT (HEHE), IT´S TIME TO GET THIS CRUNCHED AND PUBLISHED ON C64.COM AND CSDB. WE HOPE YOU LIKE THIS LITTLE PRODUCTION. SEE YOU IN THE NEXT ONE.
