1 WHY TAPP I THEN???
1 WHY LONG IS IT THEN? COZ IT FEELS IT LIKE A GUILTY TO BE LONG!
1 WHAT WAS THAT?
1 WELL, THAT'S IT FOR THIS ONE, I AM GOING NOW TO HAVE MY SHOULDER MASSAGED BY MY CAT (COSMO)!!!
1 WELL I'M PRETTY WARM AND DRY ACTUARLY!
1 WELCOME BACK, THIS IS THE TOTAL FM OUTSIDE BROADCAST AGAIN, BROADCASTING BETWEEN 20 AND 20000 HZ FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT. WE'VE GOT A GREAT CROWD HERE! (SILENCE) AH, HAHAHAHAHA! THINGS ARE GOING GREA...
1 URK, AND THEN I MUST GO AND MAKE A VISITATION TO MY SISTER!
1 THIS IS MY THIRD ATTEMPT AT TAPPING THIS BIG SCROLL FOR MR. STEVE AS THE LAST TWO TIMES THEY WENT CORRUPT AND WE BOTH CRIED AND DRANK COFFEE!
1 TECH INFO: There are 9.34K of Graphics, all created on The Artist II, and fonts are converted to font data on Total Eclipse's FontMake V1.0. The actual code amounts to just under 1K (including Music Replay Routines), and incorporated with the music and graphic data, # the entire demo (bar scrolltexts) comes to 23396 bytes (about 23K). The music was made on Soundtracker V1.1 and ST Compiler V1.2, and was converted from the Amiga ProTracker V1.0 MANUALLY (gasp!) thanks to Gar's Canon BJ-10e (a magnificent printer!) and it's print function.

1 STEVE THNIKS SO
1 STEVE CLAIMS THAT THIS SCROLL IS LONG!
1 SO I THINK THAT IT IS TIME FOR ME TO LEAVE YOU FOR NOW AND LET MR STEVIL WEEVIL TAPP SOME MORE
1 SEE YOU ALL TOMORROW (MAYBE!)
1 Right, if you've got any really good demos (not by Hacker Chris!), and by demos I mean like this (scrollies, graphics, animations, music, etc.), or if you've got a newer version of Soundtracker or ST Compiler, or if you're a graphics, sound or code wizard and would like to join Total Eclipse (we need you!), send what you can to...
1 Right, I'm off to make my T. End of scroll iminent...
1 Of course, you can write to me as well if you want a chat, or to offer me a job, or to meet me at any computer shows (female letter authors get preference, I must warn you) or anything similar, press your Multiface button and dredge the address out. My number again? (0452) 302579. And if you want to write to Gar (with or without Amiga stuff), write to my house and I'll pass it on to him!
1 OUR SIXTH FORM IS GOOD. WE'VE GOT LOTS OF PEOPLE DOING A LEVELS, AND THEY'RE (MOSTLY) COOL. (I SOUND LIKE MARKY MARK, DON'T I?!?) THEN THERE'S THE BTEC AND CPVE GANG, WHO AREN'T AS COOL (THEY DON'T COME INTO THE COMMON ROOM, AND THEY DON'T DO A LEVELS!) AND THEY DO SILLY THINGS LIKE GET STONED (BEST NOT SAY PI...) ON SCHOOL TRIPS. AND WE'VE GOT SYD LEUILETTE, THE TEACHER WHO "KEEPS AN EYE ON US", BUT THE LEAST SAID THE BETTER!
1 OOPS, WATCH OUT FOR MY AMIGADEMOS IF YOU HAVE AN AMIGA, IF YOU HAVE NO AMIGA THEN WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
1 OOPS! LET'S PACK UP THIS OUTSIDE BROADCAST, AND GET BACK TO A COSY BEDROOM IN URBAN GLOUCESTER...
1 Now, hello to the YS Crew, the JAM Crew, the MAD Crew, the Amiga Shopper Crew, Chezron, Propac, NBS, David Gommeren (aka Lord Insanity, the Speccy's greatest programmer) and The Lords, The Jokers, Mez, Hacker Chris (only joking), Mahoney and Kaktus, { Ret Traektor (?), The Silents, Crusaders, Crionics, Budbrain, Phenomena, Yankee (BIG JOKE!) [\]^
1 NOPE, IT WAS A DISKETTE!
1 I WOULG LIKE TO SEND THANX TO MYSELF FOR TYPING THIS SCROLL!
1 I WILL KEEP THIS LITTLE MESSAGE SHORT AND SWEET (A BIT LIKE A CERTAIN PART OF JASE'S ANATOMY HUR HUR!)
1 I WAS LOOKING THROUGH YOUR SINCLAIR JUST THE OTHER DAY YA KNOW AND I SAW MANY THINGS THAT BOTH AMAZED AND IMPRESSED ME! MOST OF THESE THINGS THAT I SAW WERE FEMALE BUT THAT'S NOT FOR YOU TO KNOW!
1 I SHOULD BE AT SCHOOL RIGHT NOW YOU KNOW EVEN THOUGH IT IS 20.05 ON A FRIDAY! WHY IS THAT? WELL IT IS PRIZE GIVING TONITE AND I AM EXPECTED TO BE THERE AS I AM A SIXTH FORMER! UNFORTUNATELY FOR THEM THEY DECIDED NOT TO GIVE ME A PRIZE THIS YEAR SO I AM NOT GRACING THEM WITH MY WONDEROUS AND EXCLAIMABLE BEAUTY! (AHEM!)
1 I PULLED MY SHOULDER MUSCLE WHILST PUMPING IRON AT THE GYM TODAY! (URK!)
1 I DUNNO, IT IS ALL FAR TOO COMPLEXLY STRUCTURED FOR ME!
1 I AM TAPPING, I AM TIRED!
1 I AM GETING WORN OUT WITH ALL THIS TYPING OF SCROLLS, I STILL HAVE MANY TO TAPP IN MY OWN AMIGAPRODUCTION THAT ISN'T QUITE FINISHED!
1 I AM ALSO FEELING VERY TIRED AT THIS MOMENT!
1 I AM A MUG. WHY MUG AM I THEN? BECAUSE I FELT IT LIKE A GUILTY TO WATCH OUR SIXTHFORM PLAYING RUGBY THIS AFTERNOON! THEY LOST! (YUK YUK)
1 Hey, people who've ordered THE MIX! from me and haven't got anything returned. I'm really sorry, my printer has had his job moved to Bristol. I will return your cash if you want me to, don't worry! But if you have the stuff needed to print THE MIX! dirt cheap, please grab me on (0452) 302579. Repeat? Well, grab a pencil and paper and wait until the end of the scroll! Okay?
1 Hello to the guys that jingle our ears, namely... The KLF/The Justified Ancients of MuMu/The Timelords/The Jams (they're all the same people!), 808 State, Erasure, De La Soul, Jarre, Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk, Abba (another joke!) No more hellos. I can't be bothered. Oh, except for all of those girls who have said that I'm cute (there are some... somewhere) because flattery gets you anywhere! %? No, no % for me, I'm always at the wrong place at the wrong time. I'm right, awful, me. Gar's %? No his % isn't, as it were, either... Horrid job, this programming lark. Doing all this work to impress people and end up without special people... Sigh. (Jon North's love life is electric compared to mine!) Let's just wait until the Xmas bash again, like last year, shall we? Yes, I think so...
