This pack is dedicated to James L. Earl.
<which I have no idea who he is, just sounds good>
THIS IS THE MIRAGE COMPENDIUM VI (Pronounced Vee Eye, er six).
This pack is SOOO big! Wow! Bigger then any other Mirage Compendium! Wow!
<I'm sure you'll figure out why tho :) ... >
Top Ten Intros for the final Mirage Compendium <Compiled by R.Noble>
10) Star Trek/Beavis & Butthead Intro
This is the final voyage of the StarShip Mirage. It's 6 Compendium
mission to bring you more and more vapor ANSIs, to explore new
worlds, and discover strange new members. To boldly do ANSIs that
Ren would never do. Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-huh huh huh... that's cool!

market, featuring dual NFO files, stainless steel ASCII codes, and
the all new, never seen before ANSIs! Yes, all this at your nearest
art oriented bulletin board system!
8) CyberLit Intro
There once was a group called Mirage, it was so nice and had members
in a caravan, much like a Dodge. Each artist was cool, and all of them
left for their own rules. But now, the end of the road is here, and boyz
become men, so now let's see the ANSIs that make us cheer.
7) Anonymous Intro

H) BatMan Intro
"Who, who are you?!" "I'm Batman. I want you to tell all your friends
about me."
<what does that have to do with Mirage? Nothing, just sounds good>
I) Knights of Nee Intro
We are the Knights we say "Nee"! Give us a shrubery or we will give you
the last Mirage Compendium!
J) Ugh... this is enough...
Anyways, this is the last, final, numero last, ANSI pack Mirage will ever
put out, unless some idiot wants to try and restart Mirage for nth time.
C'mon guys, after Metal Head left, Mirage was basically on a downhill from
then, right Ben?! :) . Oh well. I would put all that stuff like where we
were started, when, etc etc, but that's too serious, and this is the last
pack, so might as well do anything that I can get away with, and this is
it. Lalala. Since there are no comic book rendering artists in Mirage,
we're very sorry to disappoint those who love Chapel, Youngblood, and all
those other comic characters. Sucks for you! And if this pack sucks, SO
WHAT? It's out, don't ask us to do too many things at once...
Why we <or I> call it 'The Final Joke'? For NO good reason, just sounds
good. Look at the dedication. And no Shihear, I'm not drinking Sunny
Delight now! And this doesn't mean any of us are retiring, just that the
group is FINALLY, officially, no-fakin', DEAD and GONE! I'd like to retire
the name, but I dunno if some idiot will use the name again. Oh well.
- R.Noble ...
Shadow Knight/Resinator/Ren/R.Noble/r.noble with all his crazy paragraphs.
Anyone else think he's crazy or just sick of da scene? More so than me?
But, hey.. he actually compiled the Compedium more or less. So, let's
give a hand for his great articles, posts, and introduction/conclusions.
Just had to get this last word in. Mirage has finally appeared to have
faded, but only after iCE melted.. a few times. :)
- Sylk/Ricochet
Well it finally happened. Of course this Compendium VI has been promised
since June I believe it was. Kinda sad it took this long. Of course Mirage
had always just been hanging in by a thread. So today its OFFICIAL. Mirage
is dead, and if anyone tells ya different he's a FOOL!!!!!!!.

* OLD ANSI. Then again, that's stupid, cuz all of these ANSIs are old.
+ Group ANSI.
- Excellent ANSI worthy of an A++++++ by Paradigm, Iridium, Critic, Encore,
and any other art reviewing group. NOT!
@ Mostly Harmless Mirage Virus, but don't count on it...
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Greets and all that jazz...
Ren/R.Noble
- Kaska F. Kaska : Can't say it wasn't fun eh?
- Ricochet : It's over! It's over!
- G.Washington : How's boot camp? btw, Mirage is gone. :)
- Beez : God, leave the group for Tribe?! Oh well, have fun.
Amy rules...
- Metal Head : You Mirage killer! You sadistic, necrophiliac! You
sicko! ... I guess I can join iCE now. btw, A's rule.
- Shihear K : Hey d00d.
- Deep Freeze : hmph... I don't know you. But I know your PW on
Corrosive Poison! Muahaha!!
- Zandorf : Judgement Something eh? Crack? Forget it!
- Tempus : BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM <Miami bass> BOOM BOOM BOOM ...
- Black Ire : Pongee! Legacy was great, BUT it should've been Mirage!
ah well. hi.
- Midnight S : uh... wonder why I put that... uh.. hi!
- Terminator2 : Can't believe ya stayed so long, thanks man.
- Crushed Ice : <who cares, you'll probably never see this>
- Voivod : Sorry for the short stay.
- Everyone else : Hi.
Ricochet
- Kaska F. Kaska : So, is this the end of yer ground? W/ it all started
out as PAC 51O - > ELiTE - > PE? Well, don't think
that those will never appear.. <hint>
- Ren/Resinator : Welp, looks like this is it. I never was part of the
rise of Mirage but viewed it as it did from BART on
up. Too bad, but it happens, doesn't it? ..but hey,
look, I told you you'd reach the stage I did.. u just
reached it later. You'll reach the next one which is
what I was at a few months ago soon enough.. SaLaD '93!
- Zandorf : So is this what happens then? Too much work? I told
you you'd burn out. The people within the group are the
people that really run it; that's where the enthusiasm
and dedication come from. It comes from you originally,
but w/o any backup, a group goes nowhere.. good luck
w/ anything you do in the future my friend..
- Terminator2 : I hope you find a place in the art scene because you
sure are improving and can be made to be an excellent
artist, with the right people to guide you. Good luck.
- Kinslayer : Dude, why u so interested in all this now?! It's all
been "played out". Exactly. Thaaanks. Puh-leaze.
Pace. So yer board is expected any day now. BTW: U
still suck at Mortal Kombat 2, teacha' berry. <grin>
- Rad Man Dude : Hey, you still interested in what was discussed on IRC?
- Midnight Sorrow: CCi looks good. Not great, but good. Keep up the work,
enforce a bit more, and perhaps it'll be like it was 2
years ago.
- InterPooL fans : There might be a network under 10 bases soon but even
smaller than what IP was. Perhaps.
- Adrenalin fans : Look out for an issue and stop applying damnit. To the
scene, we are inactive, but we are still in production
when we get the time. But hey, it'll sure be nice when
issue three hits da fan.
- Everyone else : Lah, nine-qua in 'da house now. Can't we all rag so the
scene will even suck more? <disgusted>
Zandorf
- R.Noble : Hey too bad things didn't work out. I appreciate all the
help, but ricochet is right thats its the group that
makes it what it is. Without dedication from everyone
it never works. Good luck in iCE!.
- Ricochet : Thanks for letting Mirage use InterPooL, it sure saved
Mirage alot of time. Still appears the communication
problem never got solved, however I don't blame that
as the entire problem. stay in touch.. late.
- Slammer : Hey man don't worry about it. It was bound to happen
someday. A little unexpectedly soon, but ya guys in
the 516 Area code helped out alot, it looked like that
was the only thing going on.. too bad..
- Deep Freeze : Thanks for your advice, and help. Sorry VODs merger with
Mirage didn't work out. I don't think I'm interested in
Strating another Group right now. My life is tooo busy
good luck with CRaCK or whatever ya do...
- Sly Boy : Hey don't worry what other people say about ya. Ya don't
Move up in the world by making enemys. Also thanks for
your help with Mirage. I know ya really wanted it to
work out. keep in touch..
- Pnakotic : You were right from the beggining. Hope the switch over
have the quality!!.
- To T2, Beez, Bad Karma and the rest of the crew. I appreciate ya guys
sticking in the way ya did. The dedication ya showed Mirage is beyond
words. I know ya guys have a bright future in the Art world if ya
stick it out. I wish ya guys all luck.. late

So where does leave Mirage? Nowhere. Bad Karma and Terminator2 joined ACiD,
Beez left to TRiBE, Kaska and Ricochet don't really care because the scene
sucks, and Zandorf and Deep Freeze are scheming for some new group <or
something>. As far as I know, those are the only members that did anything.
Me? Who knows. Who cares. Mirage was fun to have around and now it's gone.
Oh well. I wish everyone would release packs like this one :) ...
- r.noble <ELiTE/PE, Mirage, ACiD, Legacy, Mirage, iCE>
pft. And if you're wondering why we/I released the pack with no compression,
it's because we/I wanted to make the last pack the biggest Mirage Compendium
and this was the only way to do it! ...
