Ditto. I lucked into being a courier. We had a second phone line at my house and while we cancelled it, Bell Atlantic left it active for three YEARS, but no active billing attached to it, so I could call anywhere in the world for free. I used Slip.NET for years too, and became a courier between EU and North America, since I had free long distance I could make the long calls to upload/download. To this day I have spok…

The 412? As in the Pittsburgh area?

Indeed. Born and raised in Pgh, moved out of PA in 2009.

I used to sell copies of pirated games on tapes and 5.25" floppies for the C64 in the 80's in a third world country. Made some good money as a teenager. I predate most people here. It was very hard to get these games in the country. Used snail mail which took weeks. I remember Hotline, Fairlight and many other cracking groups. Trainers at the beginning of the games were cool. Also remember the Freezeframe and Expert cartridges that freeze a games and enable you to save it.

Definitely not me but man I remember headbanging to my friends keygen software from Razor1911

I have an mp3 of the patcher/keygen by Digital Insanity for Sony Vegas in my music collection. Such a banger, even after all those years.

Gotta be this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9STiQ8cCIo0 ("Unreal Super Hero 3" by Kenet & Rez)

It has been stuck in my head for years and I was able to find it now!

> On April 22, 2011, Razor 1911's demo division won the public choice award[7] during the Scene.org Awards ceremony at The Gathering for their 64k intro "Insert No Coins" coded by Rez with music from Dubmood.[8] Insert No Coins: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5CNlMGcARA

This and The Scene Is Dead[1][2] are some truly extremely memorable 64k intros. I immediately thought of them when I saw this on the frontpage here. [1]: https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=59105 [2]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFXIGHOElrE

Then Neverlock came around. Was incredible.

Still remember the small loader files that ran before the game started - 'cracked by ... (INC, Razor, Fairlight, whoever). Those were cool.

Loved demos back in the day. Second Reality is still one of my favorites.
