Gods was originally a French demo group, which also eventually got good
divisions in Norway and Germany. The group died around march 1998, as a
result of several very important members leaving. First Sixpack left for
Haujobb, then German swapper, trader, packer and sysop of their WHQ 'LOS
ENDOS', Ghandy (ex Bonzai Brothers, late96-early97), decided to end his
double membership to a Darkage-only member. Next Caramel left the group,
with no certain destination, and English trader Lithium (ex Eltech, new
late96) left the scene. After their death was a fact, English graphician
Wade (ex Eltech, new late96) joined Nerve Axis. XBarr has, though it was
stated so elsewhere, not left the scene. He has however, most probably begun
working as a coder on the PC rather than for the Amiga anymore. I believe he
is now in Syndrome on the pc.
Check out Bridgeclaw's homepage (http://members.xoom.com/bridgeclaw/) for
some amazing pieces of art! Just CHECK out his latest work, seems like
paintbrush - great!!
1995 - German musician The Loop left for Artwork in december.
1996 - In april Xanth was kicked out of the French section, and they
announced that Wilsh was never a member since they don't allow doublemembs
anymore. French graphician Geist (06/96) left to be a Balance only member
late in the year. News in Ethic's "X-Files #11" [11/96] that Ghandy and
Sixpack had left for Syndrome were incorrect.
1997 - Artwork's "Generation #24" [04/97] reported that norwegian Typhoon/
Avalon (gfx) joined.
1998 - English sysop Zoltrix ('SPACED OUT', new late97) left in february.
2000 - Norwegian graphician Bridgeclaw doublejoined Darkage early in the
year.
2001 - In the early part of the year, Norwegian swapper Punisher joined
from Apathy and Darkage.
Norwegian sysop Sealapex ('PITSTOP'/'CLIFFHANGER' WHQ, 11/94-late96) sold
his Amiga, so he left the scene. 'LOS ENDOS' is the new WHQ, 'DIGITAL
CANDY' the new EHQ.
Norwegian coder Zytrox' (Morten Brudvik) code for "Jurassic Pack" is still
being used, long after he has left the scene, and even Norway!
