and off-beat humor.
·Kwest
released KFOREVER.ZIP, which was put together by
Mass Murderer instead of Cain.
·Odelay
release ODELAY12.ZIP, a surprisingly high quality
release.
·Remorse
released RMRS-17.ZIP, a combination of the oldschool
and newschool talents of the scene.
·Tyrone,
the first full-fledged ascii emag released a fourth issue
TYRONE04.ZIP.
·Mass
Murderer left Remorse to help Cain coordinate Kwest.
·Gravedancer
and Drax killed of Wax, a promising new group. Rumor has
it that Gravedancer might also have quit the scene.

Infamous Bugsy the Don is back from a two month vacation
from the scene and promptly released in AWE12.ZIP and RMRS-17.ZIP.
·Piromaniak
has re-joined the ranks of Remorse.

has gradually gotten back into drawing. You can find his
amazing works in KFOREVER.ZIP.
·Tum
and I (Pariah) have been appointed newschool "seniors"
in Remorse. We will handle all newschool applications in
conjunction with Necromancer.
·Odelay
managed to release one of the best newschool compilations
of the month without the organizational leadership of Prodigy,
whose computer stopped working.
·Several
new European ascii groups are popping up. Unfortunately
they all seem to die within a month so it's hard to keep
up.
·Remorsedraw,
the first drawing program enchanced specifically for ascii
is supposed to be out in the first quarter of 1998.
·Approximate
release dates for the late December/January packs are:
Homo!ascii : unknown
Kwest : the first week of December.
Odelay : the first week of December.
Remorse : the first or second week of December.

·Morph
Ascii, the group managed by Archangel, has died
after one release. The reason for its dissolution could
not be ascertained, as Archangel was not available for comment.
·Nahal
has quit drawing and quit the ascii scene
altogether. The ex-noname ex-remorse member gave no reason
for his departure; school and work likely have infiltrated
the artist's life, as they are so often known to do. He
will be missed.
