FIRST WORDS...
The Chart-Staff.
Hi again all n64-freaks all over the world.
We got many mails concerning the Ind. Releases-Rule!
OKAY! OKAY! - Now ind. releases will be counted, too. The idea behind this
rule was very simple: We just wanted to get a clean scene - clean of ind.
releases - Just more groups who are trying to do something on N64! We hope
you will understand this and furthermore we hope that you will
forgive us! :-)
(But anyway we dont think that many ind. releases will come this year!)
And we got a nice mail from Actraiser concerning the ALL-TIME CHART list:
Of course this is just a list for 1998!! This was definitively OUR fault..
take a look at the end of this TXT file.. now it *IS* "BEST GROUPS 1998"
Thanks Actraiser and all the others for their constructive HELP!
Furthermore it has come to our attention that "fake" charts are floating
around! You can recognize this charts on the Notes string which begins with
"NotIcarus" or "NotZigor"! .. thanks for your attention! :-))
SO LET'S GO FOR THIS MONTH...

Judgement for this month:
Nice releases and (okay, okay) the first ind. releases! :-)
And thanx to CZN we could play all the nice titles!
If other groups will start to do trainers, too - i think then we open
a special Trainer-section in the chart! lets see whats happening in April!
For suggestions, flames etc.. contact the major chart staff at:
N64CHART@HOTMAIL.COM
see you next month!
