- whelp we have barley squeaked out our 5th pack.
the quality isnt up to par, but we have some good
ones in here. Also due to many personal problems,
some members have not been able to do their art
and get it in on time. Though, we are getting
bigger, we are seriosuly in need of members!! So 
if you got skillz and talent and are interested
in joining, mail tek@irbcg.com for an application
or get on EFnet and /join #Overdose.

- As for overdose we are in desperate need of new
talents. Our current members are dwindling, except
for a small group of about 10 or so dedicated
members. The others are very un-frequent visitors, 
which means we need members, like you, to help get
the grewp goin. So follow the insctructions above
to join.

- I'd like to say thanx to Frodo for backing us 
back up with some bots MrBean and MrsBean, thanx
bud.

- Also to the new t1 server provided by Monroe AKA
Hobbe, we have a web page up at:
  http://overdose.pp.se 
which is being updated by Frodo.

- Also now since Lum|nate has had a few troubles,
Frodo and I will be takin up the heirarchy for
Prez' in OD.

- whelp, that wraps up everything that has happend in
the last month. its been hectic, hopefully we will still
be around for next month.

I'd like to thank right now these people :
Lum|nate, Hex, Tarmac, Frodo, Monroe, Merchant, and Purp|e..

these are the most helpful, and best crew a group could ask for...

lata all.. see ya next pak

- Hi. I'm finishing up this month's pack because
frodo was so anxious to get it out 3 days early
that he didn't wait for people to finish, and so
the pack he compiled was incomplete. He also
managed to "lose" have the ascii's I did for this
month's pack:)

- A lot of people this month made their filenames
longer than the MSDOS 8.3 format, so if you're
using PKZIP for DOS, you will probably see trun-
cated filenames, but Winzip for 95/NT, and unzip
for Linux/UNIX should unzip fine, and leave the
long filenames intact.

- I've got a new ftp server up for everyone to
upload their packs to, and it's *ALWAYS* up, so
we shouldn't have any more problems collecting
the art, as we did in the past, with both Lum
and Frodo setting up temporary FTP sites on
dynamic IP's in an attempt to give our members
a place to drop their art.

- The way things are going, it looks like I'll
be compiling the 7/97 pack as well, so until
next time, don't drink the shampoo, no matter
how nice it smells.
