Paramount are a German cracking group. They used to be in importing partnership with Random. Rick (90) left the scene at some point, but returned to the scene in Alpha Flight 1970 around january 1996. 1989 - Stefan joined from Duplex, while Morris was kicked out around september. That same month also Joe Cool, Magic Circle and Dr.Death joined the group, and Breaker was caught by the police. He decided to stop all illegal activities, and instead concentrate on coding a game. Parabound left for Rough Trade Inc., while Toad and Mr.Stal joined from Abyss in december. 1990 - Expert was kicked out, while Hybrid left for Hurricane around february. Toad (ex Abyss, new 12/89) left for the reborn Fusion early this year. Sky'n'Ass and Tom Taylor/Alpha Flight 1970, Gorilla/Sire and Wildstyle/Vision all joined around august. Sting (crack) was busted in september, but continued in the group. Twist joined from Conflict around september, and released an issue of the diskmag "Coocooc" under that label. However, due to conflicts with the original editor (Roy), he was not allowed to continue the mag. Twist then left for Hitmen in december. 1991 - January saw Jack Daniels and 3DK leave the group for Genesis Project, taking the mag "Corruption" with them, and Airwolf (swap) joining from Action. Scratcher (code, 89) was kicked around february. The board WARES DOMINE went to Triad sometime in the first few months of the year. The group was then dealt a fatal blow when their most active crackers, germans Sting (89-) and Maniac (89-) took Joe Cool (89-) with them and departed for the Ikari + Talent cooperation in late march or early april. Former member Wildstyle then recruited Tyger, Brego, Godzilla and Crockett for his newly formed c64 section of TRSI, and thus the group was dead. :(
