N.o.m.a.d.

For me, one of the best Amiga crackers it was N.O.M.A.D. . He produced many good cracks and also some cool stuff like TUDE and NomadWarp.
Something i wanna ask its the meaning of his name, i never knew the meaning of N.O.M.A.D. . Maybe Galahad can tell us the meaning of it(NOMAD for some time was member of Fairlight).

Yes. I remember that one of the games that he cracked for Scoopex was Flimbo´s Quest.

He was a member of so many groups. I have cracks where he was a member of Scoopex, Nemesis, Crystal, and so on. I think he also was a member of Genesis, but I could be wrong.

Wasn't he Marc of Slipstream at the beginning?


He did a lot of high quality cracks and also some nice trainers. I am using his utility boot on dozens of my disks.

N.O.M.A.D.

Started life out as Marc of Slipstream (Marc being his real name).

He quit Slipstream to then join Scoopex, and changed his handle to N.O.M.A.D., there is nothing special about the name, just that he had the idea to use the full stops just to be different.

After Scoopex he went and helped to create Genesis, which eventually evolved in Crystal. After Crystal, he joined Quartex for a brief spell, and then helped to create Nemesis, which then turned into Ministry. After that, N.O.M.A.D. finished off his time in Fairlight.

I don't have so many releases from him though (I have a lot more from e.g. the so-called super cracker FFC / Skid Row).

We had a swapping group back in the day and we merged with a different group of high school kids who went by the name N.W.A. I knew some of them liked rap music, so when they kept badgering me to guess what the NWA stood for, I just dismissed them. Finally they just told me: Nerds With Amigas!

Off topic, but I remember once I created an account on one of LSD's boards under the username Noah Plode. I though they might find the honesty-in-leeching approach refreshing. They didn't.
