Big Belly Productions: Slim beginnings
(c) Osmium
Hi S.E. editors and readers! This is Osmium on the mic, and I'm one of the coders on a new and exciting ZX demo crew which we would like to present to the whole wide world!
Our previous name was "Fucking Awesome Rockstar Transcendent Squad" (F.A.R.T.S. for short), but it was too long so we decided to change it. So, after weeks of serious deliberation (and eating loads and loads of oven-baked Doritos), we decided that our group should have a name that carries some weight, one that will inspire both fear AND respect on our competitors. Thus, we will henceforth be known as "Big Belly Productions".
Our current memberlist is as follows:
| Handle | Role | Weight | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Osmium | Coder | 148Kg | This is me (Osmium). Hi mum! |
| DJ Porkchops | Musician | 169Kg | The best+fattest AY musician |
| MetricTonne | Graphics | 233Kg | Unfortunately he's bedridden |
| Styrofoam | Coder | 90Kg | Tried to eat a z80 CPU once |
As you can see we are a force to be reckoned with, packing a combined weight of 640Kg and the highest blood pressure of any other team on the scene right now!
We are not sure if Styrofoam will stay for much longer because he did a gastric bypass and we don't believe he has what it takes to be part of the B.B.P. (just look at his weight, I mean at this point it's not even funny anymore).
If you wish to contact us, just get in touch with your local McDonalds branch and tell them that you have a letter for MetricTonne - they will know what to do. We are also on the lookout for new members, so if you fill the requirements below send us a letter:
- Must have a ZX Spectrum (or clone)
- Must have a Big Belly
And that's all folks, we just wanted to present ourselves and warn all the heavyweight scene groups to be on the lookout for our very first production, which we aim to present at a future demoparty (we just need to try and get MetricTonne out of his bed first, and get him a new Speccy because he accidentally sat on his and we can't seem to find it anywhere).
We are also hoping to do a monthly log of our efforts and send it to be published in future S.E. issues, but of course it all depends on free time in between meals.
Bye and keep on munchin'!
