- The Survivors — United States, dissolved 1990
The Survivors — abbreviated TS, with the "2019" suffix derived from the alphabetical positions of T (20th letter) and S (19th letter) — were an American cracking and import group that dissolved in 1990. The group operated multiple bulletin board systems across the United States and functioned as both a demo group and import operation. Members included Badd Boy, Black Beard, Devastator, Extremist, Hitman, Kid Quick, Satan, Silver Surfer, and others. A 1990 revival briefly reunited members including Pathfinder, Villain, Illusionist, Wanderer, and Scatterbrain. CSDb catalogues several Survivors intros, including "Survivors Intro 13 — Raster Effects" coded by Satan with music by The Sad Sausage. The group collaborated with Ikari on crack releases such as Lazer Tag and Prometheus, connecting the American import scene with one of Europe's most prominent cracking operations.
