- The Seventh Sector [fake rebuild] + Dualis — United States / Germany, 1989
This joint intro represents a collaboration between two groups — a 1989 rebuilding of The Seventh Sector and the German group Dualis. According to TSS founder Optic Freeze, the 1989 version was a "fake rebuild" unrelated to the original Seventh Sector that he founded on 1 April 1988 and which disbanded in June of that same year. The fake rebuild's members included Amigaman, Jedi, and Mister X, and the operation was described as either the USA section of Dualis or a close collaborator. Dualis itself was a German group founded in 1988 by General Hardy, active until 1991, with over 40 members including coders, crackers, and swappers. The group absorbed Destruction in 1989 and had Raiders Design as a graphics subgroup. This cross-Atlantic partnership between an American and German operation exemplifies the international networking that defined late-1980s C64 software distribution, with BBS systems bridging the gap between the two scenes.
