>> Child, are you listening?

There comes a time in life where hearing isn't im
paired

With much speculation and without further  adue, Echo
arrives on time keeping
our fans on their toes.  First off, apologies where they'r
e due; I'm aware of
the  fact that  there were several  errors that  remained
uncorrected in the
previous pack (ECHO0197.ZIP) and I personally say "sorry,"
we are only human.
Both positive and  negative comments  were fired towards E
cho, whichmeans we
are being  recognized either way, which gives us all the m
orereason tocarry
on.  And now we submit ourselves to you...

why we are here, and you a
re there ::

1. We try our best to succeed, defy all obstacles tha
t are placed in our
path, defeat the purpose of defeat and move on.

2. No matter how many downs are slammed in our face, we ov
ercome them
by erratically replacing them with ups, for we are not
swollen by
misfortune.

3. " I did it before, I'll damn well do it again "
- watOr

4. " When I was with Dark we got slammed, we prospered, an
d we'll do it
again here if we have to "
- 4th Disciple

5. " What I'd do for an internet account and a decent comp
uter... "
- Hexus

6. " I don't know what the hell watOr wants me to say here

- Black Jack

is Echo in the Dark(c) ? ::

No you  bastards, for all your claffs  out there that
think there is actually
something going on between  these two groups, you  are dee
ply mistaken.  Both
groups are  perfectly alright with each other's presence,
and there is no war
between Dark and Echo.

Echo  respects  Dark to the  fullest, and we  are aware of
the fact that they
dominate  the local  area code.  Why should we  move their
spotlight just to
make our own?  Duh.

I'm sure Dark gives  the same respect back..  perhaps just
a little less than
what we do *cough* Xypher.  Heh, but nonetheless, the bott
om line is:

There is no war.  If anything, it's like 'mutual respect.'

the army: wins & loses ::

Over the past  month (prior to our premiere release)
quite a bundle of people
have found themselves  swept up by the  current, yet remai
n standing.  As the
group  lives on, so  do the many  new  members.  In no  pa
rticular  order, we
present the dreaded fists of the northwest:
