ParticipantHi BrainWalker,
Didn’t know about UnitA but they sure seemed skilled back then.And Paranoimia was World of Wonders as far as I know and their debut release was most likely DataStorm.

ParticipantALL might be abit of an overstatement but alot of the good cracking groups came from Germany. But then we all know that all good demos come from scandinavia (with less then 10 exception).

ParticipantWhat about Sweden (Horizon, Classic, FLT) and the UK (Oracle, Nemesis, Crystal) too?
September 4, 2005 at 13:10 #8768telgaa
ParticipantBrainWalker: DOH! sure i knew they came from Germany
Just i guess they been in other groups before
WayneKerr: I guess all in all Germany had the most dominating groups.. Except from Quartex, BS1 and such.
M0nkeyman: Surely Scandinavia were the best demo coders.

Participantheh, some ppl get awake now, great
well, first quartex came from germany…not talking about the "reunion" quartex…sure there where other great cracking teams outside germany, but i can count them with one hand…and then again you have to ask, who cracked for them really ? ;))heh, /me the wasp…double the trouble—twice the fun
p.s.: we should make sure not to mix different decades, i.e. horizon and BS1.

ParticipantFor some reason Germany seems to have the "early adopters" technical hardcore… On Amiga HQC and many others, on the Atari ST you had The Exceptions (TEX) … I wonder what it is about .de that causes this – are there just more strange/wierd people in Germany than anywhere else?

ParticipantThere is alot to what BW says. It quite possibly be some sort of era thing. At certain points in time there where lots of groups in France, UK, Sweden etc but there seems to always have been alot of crew in Germany (or atleast with alot of german members). For every era there has always been atleast one really good German crew while the rest come and goes.
If nothing else success does breed success. One great groups leads to more since people had falling outs or decided to change names etc for various reasons.
WK; Lots of weird people in germany? Do you really have to ask ?
