These files have been included in the self-excuatable file RIPFONT S.EXE. Make sure to type RIPFONTS before viewing the pack. If you are somehow a little behind the times and do not  have a .s3m player, the world's standard, scream tracker 3, has been includ ed. Type STRACK3 then, after uncompressing, type ST3. It s pretty self explanitory from there pack 11 Welcome to the pack 11 compilation. This pack is  not really a pack at all but a collection of the best work from the last ten pac ks, a sort of year in review. A dozen or so VGA's were picked out, and fo r the most part all the rips from the past year were included. There is no  music section to this compilation, because there its just not popular to  release a 5 meg pack. Soo, a part two might be released which contains some o f the best music from last year. There is no basic rating system when choosi ng the best rips and vgas, what looked good basically was tossed in, and the n a lot more were eliminated because of size limitations, but what it com es down to is that just because a piece of work is not in this pack doesnt  mean that it was good or anything. And this pack is NO excuse  why you should not download every pack, print out every vga,rip and ansi and wallpa per your house with them, as well as record every s3m to tape and listen da y and night. No reason at all. lagged Since the anniversary pack, stab has taken a break  from the month to month droll of producing pack after pack. Actually this was  my (straka) decision to do this, and after being bitched out by other stab m embers I have learned my lesson and have quickly and spontaneously put togeth er 11. Next pack will be a pack with fresh work, creatively called  stab 12, which will be released sometime in the future and will be a very good  pack filled with vga and music and such. It might even be a two part pa ck, who knows. NAID NAID- the north american something something is a  large demo contest hosted in Canada and STAB is a PROUD SPONSOR OF NAID 1996 . Acutally, we are not an offical sponsor, or actually a sponsor at all, but i f it was free to be a sponsor and if they asked us to sponsor them, we prob ably would of. But because we have no idea how to sponsor NAID nor would w e shell out a dime for NAID, were not a sponsor. But a bunch of stab memb ers will be attending NAID which is happening in March during sprin g break I believe. So, if it has always been your dream to meet a real,  flesh and blood stab member, youll be able to at NAID. For a short time we will be  signing autographs at the stab booth, and make shure you pick up some  8x10 glossys of your favorite stab member at the concession stand. If you h ave never been to NAID, or even a demo party for that matter, nows the ti me to do so. NAID is going to be a really big, cool e vent this year, with a ton of cool, 3l33t ppl coming to it. So save up, and take  a bus to NAID this year. You might be wondering where exactly NAID is going to b e, what it costs, what is consits of, and so on, and I am happy to tell y ou that I have no fucking idea, just be patient and wait for the inf ormation to float around. You might try ftp.cdrom.com /pub/demos and lo ok for something that has NAID on it. But once again, stab encourages you to go  and attend NAID this spring. Cool demos, 3 days, and your supporting the de mo scene, as well as the fun time you can have laughting at all the pathe tic computer dorks. the stab 10th newsletter was written by straka,  stab founder S T A B - D E A T H B E F  O R E C O R R U P T I O N
