- The Ruling Company [TRC] — Netherlands, founded September 1988
The ninth intro from The Ruling Company, released in November 1991 with code by Trax — a member who also contributed extensively to the group's joint releases with Success (SCS+TRC). Founded in the Netherlands in September 1988, TRC maintained a website at scs-trc.net reflecting their long-standing alliance with the German group Success. No music or graphics credits are listed on CSDb for this particular intro, and no SID data was identified. Trax was a key figure across TRC's output, contributing code, graphics, and charset work to multiple intros documented on Doc Snyder's page under the SCS+TRC banner. A joint SCS+TRC intro appears at #785 SCS_TRC-14, which features different contributors. The intros.c64.org listing attracted comments from Rough and ZTH/Abnormal. By November 1991, TRC had been active for three years and was building toward the partnership with Success that would define both groups' later output.
