CSDb catalogues this as the Random Intro, released 25 October 1990. Excell — credited for both code and graphics — was a member of Ikari+Talent, and the scrolltext includes explicit thanks to him for the intro. JCH (Jens-Christian Huus) contributed no fewer than four SID tunes, all preserved in the HVSC: "Feel It," "Super Oswald," "Stopform+," and "Craptune." The scrolltext reveals Random importing a Genesis Project crack of "Sidewinder II" and adding additional trainers, demonstrating the transatlantic supply chain between European crackers and American distributors. Random's membership included Blue Devil, The Cure, Pudwerx, and Stormbringer. Doc Snyder's page documents the intro with full credits. Greetings reach NEC, XDS in the States, and Dominators, Genesis Project, Illusion, and Ikari+Talent overseas. Founded in October 1990, Random was a short-lived but well-connected American outfit.
