There they are, major changes! Almost everyone who's left from
the previous chart, climbed some places. Partly that's because
dead groups were removed, partly also because voters recognised
active teams at last. Also, AMD is alive! They recently cracked
Miracle #3 and therefore well deserve a place there. Not much
heard from FTL lately cracking-wise, so can we expect a fall
next time?

The 63 Bit series helped AC to jump nearly twenty positions up.
First place without changes, PGS is falling apart because of
idling of ages. Also XTM is leaving, this year there were only
intros and one quite poor demo from this famous demo group. Nice
to see here Slovakia's 3SC and Czechia's K3L entering the top as
well as DKG who finally managed to get in. And, strange enough,
EMG climbed three places despite very low activity demo-wise.

Wow, Fyrex! Last time noone out of over 100 voters mentioned him
but now he is number one thanks to bunch of quality cracks. But,
weren't these done in the end on 1998? Or am i wrong? Pol did
some nice cooperation with FTL, releasing such games as Quadrax,
Sherwood and Twiligh, that's why he is here, but Maddy surely is
the best and most active PHT cracker today, sho he should be
first in the row of PHT cracking quattro.

Even can't tell you what's more cool - Serzh from 24th to second
place or Freeman from 43rd to seventh! Anyway, active people's
ratings are raising. Exploder did leave speccy and therefore he
is moving out, just a natural thing. Being really productive,
Phantom Lord enters the top ten, also people who were previously
in lower positions before, like Kva, Dc Pak and Baze, are coming
in. The question is, will they stay here?

Some kept their previous positions, some moved up or down a bit,
but the surprise of the season is Diver ofcourse! Considering
his incredible activity it's only logical, however not much of
people nowadays tend to notice and dynamically accept changes,
therefore it came as surprise anyway. And Werewolves taking
chart by the storm, is there any reason? Didn't see anything
from him for a quite long time.

A lot of changes there. Who expected to see Mast at the very
top? Definitely not me. 10th place is also surprising, climbing
30 places isn't a joke! Ea lately became very popular as well as
Zhenya, who nowadays arn't interested in speccy anymore. Where
are Agent-X, Ironman and Andrew Fer? Very close but this time
they are still left outside.

Ufff looks like i should say something about organizers... there
is everything written down and crystal clear! Just like any
other chart ;] But well i know you're all waiting what the hell
i will say, for example, about fact that Arty is absolute number
one getting twice as points as nearest follower. Good question!
I don't know! But i know why La Esq appeared here. It's because
he made RA to release some nice demo finally. You did it Neil!

Ha-ha-ha! Now, maybe my russian isn't that bad at all? Better
try to judge my journalistic skills in english! Or in latvian,
what's perhaps even more interesting. Anyway, here we are with
this chart for first time, and my advice is to look closer who's
writting what so you will know your speccy journalists a bit
better. FTL dudes are still popular but where's promised RIP?
And what happened to #Z80? Deja Vu turned commercial, phew!
