SCHSC Madness & The Great ZXDB Theft
As if 2020 wasnt barmy enough, in September, the SCHSC (Spectrum Computing Hi-Score Challenge) went inexplicably mad for Micromania's Kosmic Kanga. Lord of the loonies was Clebin, who managed to complete it and clock up a whopping 11739 points in doing so.
The Great ZXDB Theft
This tape magazine is intended to be fun, but it would be wrong not to mention the dishonourable actions of a prominent err... resident of the Speccy scene this year. It transpired in June that the "World of Lee" was using ZXDB while trying to disguise it and pretend it was his own database. Specifically, ZXDB version 1.08 released on September 2, 2018. It was performed with all the brass neck of donald trump, and all the competence of Frank Spencer. Some ugly scenes followed. ZXDB is for anyone, as long as they give credit to the countless hours of work by the community. For more info, and the proof, go here: spectrumcomputing.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=2829
