THE STORY SO FAR
----------------
So who or what are "These Assassins"..... Well forget any threatening
insinuation from the name, we are a real friendly bunch of Amiga users
who have known each other for longer than some of us would care to say.
I think I can say in all honesty that we are all the wrong side of the
big 21...But then again that could be the right side...
As for the members names. The Assassins are.....

Basically we knew each other way back in the days of the good old C64.
But the group started around 1988 when Bryan and Artie met up,then Bill
and Stu completed the group in 1989.As we all moved over to the amiga,
we started to collect quite a few public domain disks between us.So if
you are quite new to the area of Public Domain,things are a lot different
now. We were all used to paying quite a bit of money for a disk somewhere
in the region of 3-4 pounds only to find that the disk was sometimes not
even a quarter full. Together we thought it would be a good idea to try
and compile these disks for ourselves with a easy to use Menu and so that
is how it all began. With us all being in regular contact with various
Public Domain libraries etc,we sent them copies of these disks,in exchange
for a new game or whatever... Soon we were being asked by these libraries
if we had done any more compilations and from there we just kept on swapping
and compiling. Slowly we noticed that more and more Public Domain libraries
were stocking these disks and they were becoming a bit of a talking point.
This was not something that we intended but was nice to see anyway.

I hope you agree that each and every one of our compilations are good
value for money. I also believe that as these disks are now so popular
that they will also benefit the games programmers.This is likely because,
Public Domain programmers will get there works seen by hopefully a bigger
audience and even Shareware titles will be a lot better distributed and
maybe attract more registrations etc. We have good relations with quite a
few of the better known games programmers and they seem to be happy with
the situation and for us to use their programs.As you can imagine we must
get all these games from somewhere,this is where all of our friends and
contacts come into it,So if it wasn't for their help and that of the
programmers you wouldn't be reading this waffle.So even though you all
get a mention in the greeting section, in our Catalogue Disk I would like
to take this opportunity to thank you all for everything...
