It's time for that special feeling children, and I'm
talking about Anemia's 4th packet, and it's going to
be the best yet.  The good get better, and if that's▄█▄ ▄▄▀█▓▓█true, then this is the best improvement in the history
of Anemia.  However short that history may be, it's
still great to see an improvement.
On top of all news, Silver Blade, Virtuoso, and myself
decided it was time to drop the TMS merge.  Although
we love TMS, and believe they are great at what they
do, it just wasn't working out.
We decided with the loss of TMS, we needed to add
something to the Anemia ranks, something that will ▀▄▄▄▀▀▓▓█▀ make Anemia even better than before.  We went with
Suicide, and Silver Blade will tell you all about what
is going on with his addition to the information file,
check it out when your done reading my lame shit.
Infinity Electronic Magazine, the long time and well
know supporters of CiA, are now supporting Anemia,
look for their magazines in the Anemia packets.  There ▀▄▄▄▀▀▓▓█▀ would have been an Infinity magazine in this packet,
but Superfly and Mr. Muff are having a couple problems
with other more important business, so they decided
to delay the magazine.

Although Virtuoso did drop the very fun job of doing▐▓████▒▓▀▀▄the Anemia page to me, he is still running a little▄▄▀▓▀▄▓██▓█ page of his own about himself, and about the 206.
This page is GREAT for anybody interested in learning
about a weird history of art in the Seattle area

You are probably wondering, what's the Anemia homepage?
You can check it out at http://www.zipnet.com/~mistawho ▀▄  ▀▒▐▓▒▌▌I would like to give a few thanks to the people who are
doing or have done art for the page:

Visigoth [acid]
Stone the Crow [acid] ▄▀▀▀▄  ▄▄▀ Obsidian [soon to be ice, woop]
Locke [Anemia]
The page isn't done yet, I'm not going to work on it
until I get more art, and not until I can think of
something smooth enough to say to Borian to get him to
do me some damn art for the page :).  Thanks to the
people who have done art, and I hope to get more
contributions to the page.  Also, don't check out the▄█▄ ▄▄  ▄▄▀ page with lynx, I will add a text based HTML sooner or
later when I feel like redoing a WHOLE page just so
you can view it.  It will be something like ▀▄  ▀▀▓▓█▀ http://www.zipnet.com/~mistawho/text.html.

Now, enough bullshit aside, it's time to tell you who
is new, and who left.
Spear leaves the group this month, he thinks I am a big
asshole, while that is true, I wasn't to him, but it's
more power to his elbow, have fun with whatever you  ▀▄▄▄▀░▓▓▒▓▌choose to do, and I hope you get into a group better or
just as good as Anemia.

MayTrickZ comes over as the VGA coordinator, check out his
work too.  Had has too VERY nice VGA's in the packet, and
he will only improve (he took a break from the art scene  ▄█▄ ▄▄▒▐▓▒▌▌for a while).

Shatters from his old Shiver days is now in Anemia.  Check ▀▄  ▀█▓▒▓▌▌out his work, it's awe inspiring to say the least.  I think
he is almost as good as Mung, and dammit, this boy will
only improve.  I am glad to have him.

Deeply Disturbed asked me to put him in the member list,   ▄▀▀▀▄▀▓▓█▀ as it's his goal to reach 1000 groups this month, at least
he wants to be in 1000 groups.  I think we were the first
other than acid, neato, eh?  Well, not really, next topic.
Penguin is the mascot, she will just sit in #acid and
#anemia and say doodle until you die.  She will also do
a VGA or two the group, look for it next month.

Psycoholic joins us, and in trade, Silver Blade joined his▄█▄ ▄▄▀▓▓█▀ group gOo, goO, Goo, gOO, hell, I can't remember, check
his two neato logos in the packet, they are spiffy.
Miasma from the 516 area code joins Anemia.  He's the
second decent artist from 516, the other being in iCE,
so check out his work.  He does some wonderful ASCII and
some great literature.
We have a second Locke in the group.  I don't know why I
didn't tell him to change his nick, mostly because that
would have been very rude.  He goes by LK-*.whatever, and  ▀▄▄▄▀▀█▓▓█he is a VGA artist.  He does some different, yet great,
work.  A definate plus to the VGA division.

Nuremberg will move to the ASCII coordinator, and will be
putting together the ASCII section of the group this
month, he will also move his board to the Western ▄█▄ ▄▄█▓▒▓▌▌Canadian headquarters, and good all Sabotage from little
old acid will be heading the Eastern Canadian HQ, look
for the numbers in the site listing.
We need more ANSI artist that do pics, if you are, you
have no choice but the join, because I WILL find you
sooner or later, and you will find out why some people
used to call me MistaNag, save yourselve's the trouble ▄▀▀▀▄ ▄▄▄▄▀ and give into my powers, le-w00p.

We had a HUGE amount of ASCII in the packet this month, I  ▀▄▄▄▀  ▄▄▀ had to skim it down to 40 ascii's out of around 72.  That
is a lot of quality control, ain't it?  Anyways, since the
size of the ascii was so huge, it was zipped into a small
and convenient file for your viewing pleasure.  I also use
this zip file to find a place for Silver Blade's file_id.diz
and that should make him tingle.  yAY!
For all members reading this file, check out ANE-1195.RUL
and be sure to read it all the way through.  I have a few  ▀▄  ▀▒▓▀▀▄new rules that are going to be added to the list, and you
will need to know them.  If you have any questions, you
find my e-mail address somewhere down there with my super
super leet sb made sig.  Check it girls.
We have a Norway HQ, woop.

Obsidian loves us, obsidiwh0r3, we love you, don't join ▀▄▄▄▀▒▐▓▒▌▌ice, join us, nah, dualgroupit, we always will love you

As you can see, I have no more news, so on the bottom of
the news, I won't be putting together next months' packet,
Virtuoso will do that.  We will be alternating, so the▄█▄ ▄▄ ██▄▓ ones Virtuoso will put together are going to suck and mine
will rule as usual.  Just kidding, check it out next month
as you all should, cause..  I own you, yeah.
Until then, peace, I need to find that bean dip for the
Nachos, I just can't seem to find them down my pants
anymore.  Er, yeah, bye.

Virtuoso's Coolio thing for the NFO thing

Anemia has come a long way these past four months, farther than I▄▀▀▀▄▄█▓█▌▌ had expected.  When we first started,  honestly thought that we'd
be around the ranks of groups such as where ink and era are, but
we've far surpassed that.  I don't consider myself a biased ▀▄▄▄▀▄▀■█▓█ person when I say this, but I honestly feel that Anemia is a top
ten group and is out to stay that way.

It looks like we're Mung-less this pack, and that will hurt it a▄▀▀▀▄  ▄▄▀  little bit since he's the best ANSI artist this side of the
Emerald City.  However, I do like what I see in this Anemia pack.
It doesn't have as many ANSI pics as I'd like, but there are quite  ▀▄▄▄▀▀▓▓█▀  a few excellent logos and VGAs that I really like.

I would like to welcome one person in particular to Anemia, ▀▄▄▄▀▌ █░▀▓ Maytrickz.  This deity of IRC produces VGAs that will make your
girlfriend fall in love with you again, or maybe not.  He's not
the best VGA guy in the scene, but he is a very strong addition to
Anemia.  Not only that, but he's just a really k-Spiffy kind of
guy.  He chills on IRC with the pimpin'est of them.

Mistawho has been really good with the group.  Silver Blade and I
are the presidents of the group, but Mistawho has been the guy ▀▄▄▄▀▀█▓▓█  that's been making everything happen, well, not everything, but
quite a bit.  We have given Mistawho the task of being the head
coordinator guy for the group.  Everything still goes through ▀▄▄▄▀ ██▄▓  Silver Blade and me, but he's the one that gets the everything
going.  I admire him for his vigor and initiative.  He doesn't
have to keep asking Silver Blade and me if he could do this or
that, but he knows what he can and can't do on his own, and he
really knows what he is doing.  I'm not saying that Anemia
wouldn't survive without Mistawho, but there are a lot of things▄▀▀▀▄█▓▒▓▌▌ Anemia would be without if there was no Mistawho of Anemia.
Thanks, Mistawho, for everything you've been doing for the group.
Keep up the good work.  I don't know how you do it.  Maybe it's ▀▄▄▄▀ ██▄▓  the nachoes...peace!@#$

I have been relinquished of the duty of doing the Anemia web
pages, and Mistawho will be doing them from now on.  They are not▄▀▀▀▄▄▀■█▓█ completely done yet, but you can check them out at the following
URL when you have a chance:
http://www.zipnet.com/~mistawho/anemia

Since I will no longer be doing the Anemia pages, I am planning
to put up Virtuosity, a WWW bulleting board system.  It will▄▀▀▀▄▄▀▀▓▄▄ include some files, but this web site will feature message bases.
This site will be dedicated to the art scene, and it will be a
place where ideas and thoughts can be exchanged, just as they are   ▀▄▄▄▀▄▀▓▀▄░ in regular bulleting board systems.  If you would like to help me
with Virtuosity, you could e-mail me.  My e-mail address will be
at the end of this message.
As for now, my humble home page is up:

http://www1.cortland.com/lowell
Please go there and check out my coolio home page.  It's not much,
but there will be more.  It looks like this will be the site of
Virtuosity once I get it up.
The last thing I will talk about will be ripping ANSI.  First of
all, Anemia does not rip ANSI, and members caught ripping ANSI ▀▄▄▄▀▓▄▀ ▀░ will be immediately kicked out of the group.  In a time when our
eyes weren't fully opened, we took in someone named Skatin.  We
thought his logos were decent.  Then we found out that he ripped.
He was immediately booted from the group.  I don't think he knew▄▀▀▀▄░▒░▓▄  right away, but you won't be seeing him in any Anemia packs any
time soon.  If you're planning on joining Anemia, make fure you
don't rip, because if you do, it could be the end of your scene ▀▄▄▄▀░▓▓▒▓▌ life.

I would like to say thank you to everyone who deserves thanking.
You can e-mail me at the following address
lowell@cortland.com
I am looking forward to all your thoughts and comments.

For now, I'll leave you with this quote:

Greetz:  [due to my lack of energy right now, Virtuoso greetz
will be shown next month.  Instead, you will have to▄▀▀▀▄░▓▓▒▓▌look at who Silver Blade greets, and that just about
who Virtuoso would greet.]
wOOP, a lot of Silver Blade's info got cut off at the end
because he was too retarded to format his information for
his own information file, if you are good at guessing what ▀▄▄▄▀▓▄▀ ▀░     someone might say, read on, if not, read on anyways, cause
I said so.  Isn't green great yet annoying?  Yeah, fuck you

I'd like to say that I am entirely fully impressed with Anemia
productions as of this pack. Although our previous pack was not up t ▀▄▄▄▀░▓▓▒▓▌par with Anemia standards, it got the job done, and MG-MAY .ANS sure
got everyone hyped about Mung. :) I will be covering in this article
the new members of anemia, some member reviews and hell, maybe I'll
even write my opinions about the scene as many people probably know  ▄▀▀▀▄▄▀■█▓█how pissed I got on October 26th at [CHaOS].:)

Where to begin... hmm. After the packet was released on October  ▀▄▄▄▀░▒░▓▄ whatever'th, I think it started spreading like hot-kikes..er.cakes.
Mistawho got a total of 204 people to get the pack from him, and     ▀▄▄▄▀▓██▓█  although I didn't log how many times people got it from me, I'm sur
it was way up there too. * Editors Note: Thanks meeSta!#@ .
those 204+ people , I believe about 8 people applied and about 6 of
them made it into Anemia. Those people are: Zero Cool, WarHammer, ▄▀▀▀▄▀█▓▓█ DarkPhoenix, Flight, Clorox Cowboy, and as much as I hate to think
how stupid I was, Skatin. Although he didn't apply, he is VERY
important to anemia production's VGA team and this man is none other ▀▄▄▄▀▄█▓█▌▌than Imaginik-famed MayTrickZ. The following will explain a bit abou
these new artists and what to expect from them soon.
Zero Cool was an application brought up to me by Nuremberg. I
got a dcc from nuremberg one night and he told me that 0c wanted to
join, so I figured I'd take a look at the packet O' ascii. I was ▄▀▀▀▄░▒░▓▄ thoroughly impressed by his asciis and decided then that he is in.
Nuremberg sure as hell better've told him that he's in. :)
WarHammer was brought up to me by Virtuoso. I first saw his
stuff and thought that it wasnt that up to anemia standards, until I ▀▄▄▄▀▓▄▄▄▄▀saw this logo by him that made me think how if he were to do more
logos like that he'd be great. So here he is now. :)

DarkPhoenix was a difficult one to handle. For starters he      ▄▀▀▀▄▄█▓█▌▌wouldn't decide wether or not to send me the damn application to me
:).. But then he sent me a VGA and I suppose it just kinda went from

Flight was sent to me by Príng of tms. Dont know much about thi ▀▄▄▄▀■█▒   guy; just hope that I can get some more stuff from him. I was pretty
impressed.

Clorox Cowboy I believe was the first one to call the WHQ to    ▄▀▀▀▄░▓▓▒▓▌apply. Punk-ass.[(c) mung 1995]. Anyway, he's like some coolee-o ans
artist. Could always use more of them. :) Dope. I dont know what els
to say really, Just hope he sticks around in Anemia for a while.
Skatin is an application I'm so sorry I accepted. He sent me an ▀▄▄▄▀ ██▄▓ app with two logos in it which I thought were outstanding pieces of
art, until I went on a viewing frenzy and saw Blindman of Saga's log
that looked exactly the same. I booted Skatin immediately for rippin
artwork, so donut worry. And if anyone thinks of attempting to apply ▄▀▀▀▄▄▀■█▓█to anemia with ripped artwork I'll fucking murder you. :) Thanks.

MayTrickZ on the other hand is an application I'm damn proud of ▀▄▄▄▀░▒░▓▄ Well, sorta an application. I was just informed of his VGA Co-ord
of anemia status one day by Mistawho, not that I have a prob with it ▀▄▄▄▀▓██▓█ MayTrickZ is a damn good VGA artist and his 2 VGAs in this packet ar
of some great quality.

As always, feel free to fill out an application to anemia and   ▄▀▀▀▄▀█▓▓█ send it to Mistawho, Silverblade or Virtuoso. Soon we'll have an
account where you can just send general comments/applications/etc
to anemia@scn.org, but its not up so dont bother trying just yet. :)
Anemia has merged with Suicide this month. All of their members ▀▄▄▄▀▓▄▀ ▀░have been transferred over into the anemia member list. If you are i

While on the subject of merges, Anemia has dropped TMS' merge thi ▀▄▄▄▀▓▄▄▄▄▀month. Many of you believe it is because of Anemia not liking TMS, b
that is the exact opposite. I would like to remain friends with TMS
and believe they are the #1 modding group in the entire art scene. A
if you must know why the merge was dropped is because of Anemia (or  ▄▀▀▀▄▄█▓█▌▌mostly <G> ) being overworked with artwork to do for Tms and no time
for artwork for requests. Thus showing how I am backed up about 10

As many of you know now, I am no longer doing free art. Before yo ▀▄▄▄▀■█▒   get all mad at me, hear me out. Through the summer, I did many pics.
Actually , alot of pics. So now that school has started, I'm kinda
busy, almost too busy for the art scene. If you would like to get so
art from me, fill out the order form (sborder.frm) , print it out an ▄▀▀▀▄░▓▓▒▓▌send it to me as it says. Dont bother asking for a free doodle from
cuz I can guarantee I will NOT do one for you. I am taking paying

This concludes my part of this informational file. Enjoy the Anem ▀▄▄▄▀ ██▄▓ packet, and let us know how we are doing! Thanks, and goodbye.
