some imprecision about Crystal Crack Group

W4r3DeV1L · 30 May 2008, 20:08

Hello Amigos,

I am not a registered user of some sites of the Amiga Scene but all of them reports sometimes informations not correct at all.
For example I was on the scene as sysop of the Crack Group Crystal
as italian member and these sites report my handle as Zaracon that I
used only for 1 week while my real name that is present on the most of bbs world lists is Kadaver.

ITA

Gulliver (sysop 'HEAVENS DOOR')
Zaracon (sysop 'ANCIENT DREAMS', 05/92)

Another error is concerning the story:

Crystal was formed in 1991, likely by Scott (scotland) and I.B.M. (denmark). The group became known from day one as one of the best cracking groups in the business, and I.B.M (originally from Poland, real name Roman) was their main cracker for years and years. Another dane, Harmonica, also did a fair few cracks for the group. The group's main supplier was Englishman 2tuff (also known under several other handles, a.o. Tutoff and Ghetto Boy).
The group itself never produced any demos, but their subgroup for a while, Melon Dezign (see separate entry) certainly made some memorable demo releases. Melon was also responsible for many, many of the best crackintros ever, almost all for Crystal. There are reviews of some of these under Melon's entry.
There is some confusion around the 'OASIS' boards; in addition to the information above, I also have a bbs ad and other supporting information that reads sysop: Dan/Crystal...

Well instead reporting a fake name for the main cracker : I.B.M. better to not tell any name! His name wasn't Roman but Sebastian. I listened him at the phone almost 3 times a week.

Well , these are the things that are must important for now.

But past is past but ... I prefer the right things...

Scott and Mr.EE were the founders of Crystal, and rather than focus on Harmonica (AKA Bananasoft), you might also want to mention the contribution of N.O.M.A.D.
