OCR: Futile Newz Part 1 by Whodini [FUTİLE/VORPİL ] Dear Mom, Welp, after a Wig release, 1000 flames, and disco. . here is the Futile packet . Omot and I have been put'n Futile on our ansis, so I figured I'd just put in some junk about where we all got started from. It all started when I had sex with ostscout's mother. Out pooped Ostscout Ooops .. wrong story. It all started when I was actually publishing my lit. Echo, Totemo, and I were all together in a group called PaGE (People and Gods Endowed) that was a lit-only group. Welp, the lit scene started to grow right after we were formed, and the scene was flooded with insane-wannabe poetry. Echo decided to pack up his lit bags. I lose contact with Totemo. That Leaves me. On the other side we have TUBE. Run by the ever-famous Omot. His group, much like mine, had only one working member .. Him. So, I talked to him on the phone, and we decided to be elite and merge. After a few names. . Boom. . FUTiLE is born. Ok, so all the people who thought they were in TUBE come into FUTiLE, and Omot and I tell them they either do some shit, or boom. I think thats about that same time the group quickly grew to 2 members. Omot and I. I decided that the lit scene was a peice of dog shit, 2-3 groups were pumping out decent lit. The rest was crap. I had worked on Ansi before, and gotten good at it, just never really a lit person. followed it up because of lack of time. I was a Hack/Phreack person, along with I couldn't just say "Hey, lets do ansi also!", I'd produce the same shit that was goin' out in the lit scene if I tried publish all 3. So I started doing ansi. Omot was producing some dope ass shiznit artwork, and after a while, I was doing the same. FUTiLE was put on all our ansis. I applied to RELiC, didn't get accepted. So I stuck around. Here I am, doing ansi for one of the most prestigous groups in the country. Two members, now THAT is presti- gous. After RELiC didn't accept me, I realized that I still had alot of work to be done before I could truly be an ansi god. Unfortunately, I'm lazy. So I'm an ansi peasent. Thats alright, cuz if you compare me to the rest of the 614 people, I am Zeus, sitting on Mount Eliteness, ruling over all the other gods. A little competitive. Really Though, work'n w/ a 2 man group is really nice. Very relaxed. You don't have to worry about 'group communication', just post your newest works on Inner Tube ( The remaining ashes of TUBE, FUTiLE WHQ), and then go about your business. Gave me a chance to learn from Omot's mistakes, and masterpeices. No bullshit, no apps, no sites, no members, no packs, and no feuds between members. So WTF are we missing? We've got the elite name, the talented artists, the neato WHQ, and the elite FILE_ID.DIZ! This is how all groups should be run! Greetz- Dmot : FUTiLE will never die. H . P . Hovercraft: Yo' G money, I've worn that saying out. Echo: I am god, bow in my presence. GreepFreek : Stick around, maybe some day we will have three members. {CiD, iCE, TRIBE, CiA, NATION, UNION, and all the other groups w/ a small in their name : No, we will not be assimilated, resistance is futile. Leave me alone. No, you can not join FUTiLE. Omot and I will rule the world before you guys die. JooDoo Child, ASYLUM, BLADE, and Psychosis (Sorry, but VooDoo is elite .. ): Jh. . Hi. Keep the lit come'n out. I may not be around to show ya'll how its done, but I feel for ya'll. You take alot of shit from people like me. Part 2 by Omot [FUTİLE] Hello world. It's me, Omot, co/founder of that one art group, Futile or something. I guess, you've already heard Whodini's side of the story, so I won't bore you with mine : ) We're just your average ol' two-man local Acid-quality [Hehe] group. Which reminds me, if you actually want to join [How'd that happen?], then you can either find either of us or wait until the next pack [if there's a next] and utilize our sure-to-be-groovy app, which couldn't be coded in time for this release [Hey, assembly isn't really known for fast coding]. Sure, we suck, but don't take my* word for it, look at the rest of the damn pack : ) "If you've never heard of us, you aren't as / <- r41> as you thought." Either that, or you don't live in 614/C' lumbus or listen to our faint pleas for acceptance. The reason is. .. I dunno. We're just a real laid-back [meaning we'll lay just about anyone] group, out to have a little fun. I know Acid and Ice are trembling in fear as the era of the Futile revolution dawns and that's why we purposely make our ansis not look so good :) All groups should be like this, absolutely no deadlines whatsoever at all [This is our first release since we started putting "Futile" at the end of our sigs a few months ago], no pressure, and xgreat* member-to-member communication [We can get our whole group in a teleconference faster than you can say ATDT]. Futile, FUTiLE, FuTiLe, FTL, Ft1, futile, FUTILE, howevertheheck you write it, that's us your talking about. "Resistance is Futile. You will be assimilated." -Borg Oh yeah, before I forget ... Tadah! Instead of wasting a whole file on our membership list, here it is, in no particular order: Handle Position Omot Co/Founder, artist Whodini Co/Founder, artist -Cut on dotted lines- I'm done babbling for tonight ... "Until next time, enjoy our wild cabbage." -Marty Stouffer
