Background
Mad Al is a member of a Clacks hacker group called the Smoking Gnu in Angh-Morpork, on Discworld.
During the events of Terry Pratchett's Going Postal (2010) played by Ben Crompton
Moist Von Lipwig goes to the roof of the post office and finds Mad Al, Sane Alex and Adrian on the roof with a sort of hacking machine. They lie and and come up with excuses for why they are on the roof and Adora Belle Dearheart appears on the roof. They admit they are part of a hacker group called the Smoking Gnu and they show Moist how they hack the Clacks system. During the race between Moist and Reacher Gilt, Stanley and Groat drop off supplies to Mad Al and Sane Alex and then continue on their way to Uberwald. Sane Alex and Mad Al then change the Clacks message and send it onward to the other towers.
