Due to popular belief Crossbow is a myth!

Due to popular belief Crossbow is a myth. All the coding is done by Deekay, and Crossbow is his alter identity to keep all those code related questions at moderate rate. Even some members of Crest were not able to meet Crossbow even being in his hometown multiple times. Crossbow was never available. Deekay? No problem - you can meet him there or on the parties, but not Crossbow. That is the longest, most guarded secret of the scene. Not anymore :) All thanks to some old pricks meeting up and being provided with excessive amounts of alcohol

I'm suspecting that crossbow may have once been a real individual. But something happened, maybe he got abducted by the aliens or smthn. Probably around 1993.

Before he disappeared, he taught deekay all his wizardry. Since then, deekay has been leading a Jekyll and Hyde existence.

I mean, it's too obvious. Deekay knows way too much about code and shit. And everytime you ask him he says "oh but i dont really know anything, crossbow just told me a few things" and then goes on to explain in detail technical stuff like a boss.

Yeah sure :-D

Deekay == Crossbow or vice versa i'm not sure.

Maybe we got it all wrong, in reality its Crossbow who is acting out his artist persona as Deekay.

So, maybe Crossbow == Deekay ?

I'm getting a little confused now. Hmm.

DeeKay: can't you drive a car into his house and put him in it and kidnap him and take him to X

The drive from Munich to Someren is already long enough, thanks!

Does it really matter who Xbow is? I mean, so long as Xbow puts out quality, mind blowing stuffs (as always), knowing who the person is just seems moot.
What IF it is DeeKay (nice GFX dude)? How will that change things? If anything, I think the discovery of who this person truly is would scare them into hiding even more, which would suck.

Both Deekay and Crossbow have helped me in the past. Crest fulfilled my request for an NTSC compatible NUFLI engine. For that I am eternally grateful.
If both the men I communicated with are the same man, that is cool. The legend of Crossbow is great. If he is a myth, that is fun too. Sasquatch is a legend we all love. Santa Claus, oh how dear to heart he is for many. The Monster of Loch Ness is elusive. These are all great legends we can continue to enjoy.
Crossbow rocks!

How to become a myth:

1. Do something cool
2. Stay away from the public

It's pretty easy. Except for #1 maybe :)
