Description:	DEATHMATCH !!!! This is designed for deathmatch only . There are monsters in the wad but they are also placed with deathmatch in mind . It can be played single player but there would be no purpose other than for firing practice. I tried to make an evil cross between levels one and seven
Credits:	Jimmy Sieben for answering the questions I had and for the willingness to die so often in testing ;) I would never have finished as painlessly as I did without you . Also a big thanx to Warren Rice for sequencing the "Head Like a Hole" track and to Dan Teeter whose wad Surreal2.wad I borrowed it from . I would have used an original tune but this one fit the theme so well
Base:	Dont want to say and you wouldn't believe
Build time:	Read above and apply it here
Editor(s) used:	DCK ( it may or may not be the best . It is just the one I decided to use . I would like to say that it was not to diffucult to learn on and gave me little problems
Bugs:	The doors seem to roll up since the wad has a sky texture . I thought it looked bearable and it doesnt detract from general aesthetics much at all . One other problem I did encounter was in making the top portion of my window show a wall texture to create a window to the sky . The result looks cool anyway and may/may not have hit you as unintentional. If anyone would care to e-mail me a remedy I would appreciate it . All in all I consider this wad heads above the average first-timer . I would never have released it if I didnt honestly think it rocked .

Episode and Level #     : MAP01
Single Player           : Not at all . Really . It would bite.
                          but <sigh> you can if you must
Cooperative 2-4 Player  : Nope nope nope . DEATHMATCH !!
                          But , still , would be possible .
Deathmatch 2-4 Player   : This is all I thought when I designed it
Difficulty Settings     : PAY ATTENTION !! This may seem odd but
                          it plays so well . On skills 1 & 2 there 
                          is an icon thrower in the BFG room in 
                          front of the door . 
New Musics              : Sequenced track of Nine Inch Nails jammin
                          tune "Head Like A Hole"

New Graphics            : No .
                          I tried a few but it came off better with 
                          the originals

                          of you that STILL haven't upgraded!>.

This is my first wad ..... BUT WAIT ...... dont pass it 
    up without trying it first !! I am a long time deathmatcher and 
    some of you may know me from IRC #DOOM . I felt starved for a 
    wad that emphasized what I refer to as "technique kills". 
    Seasoned players will know what I am referring to . I finally
    got so tired of the MAP01/MAP07 look and feel . This wad is 
    the best of both their worlds plus some more . Yet , you will
    in no way feel as if you are replaying either of them . 
    
    For a complete set of what I consider the best "technique" 
    levels that I have played to date get AVATAR1.WAD and AVATAR2.WAD
    Part 1 rocks all-round and so does 2 even though It is , I feel ,
    a little more specific with the moves it enhances/audience it may
    attract . Nevertheless IMHO they both rock !! The author of these
    two wads , and the avatar himself :) , is Mackey Mccandlish .
    Mackey helped influence the style of this wad even though he 
    probably wont know it til he reads it here <hope ya feel flattered>

*IMPORTANT NOTE*

On skills 1 & 2 there is icon thrower in the bfg room . 
    It has two icon landings on either side of the BFG altar . THIS
    IS ON PURPOSE and might I say works wonderfully . In skills 3-5
    It remains up to the other player/players to guard the bfg room
    while in skills 1-2 there is the added component of the icon
    thrower to deal with . There is also another landing that is in 
    megasphere hallway , and two that are located in a crusher that 
    is not accessible by players . This keeps the flow down to where 
    I wanted it .But since it is either skill 1 or 2 the 
    activity in the room is very manageable . It plays as more a 
    destraction than a direct threat . If you wanna play deathmatch
    with monsters this is the way to do it . If not then the much
    preferrable skills of 4 & 5 are free of it . It rocks either way

Editor(s) used          : DCK ( it may or may not be the best .
                          It is just the one I decided to use .
                          I would like to say that it was not
                          to diffucult to learn on and gave 
                          me little problems
Known Bugs              : The doors seem to roll up since the wad
                          has a sky texture . I thought it looked
                          bearable and it doesnt detract from 
                          general aesthetics much at all . One 
                          other problem I did encounter was in 
                          making the top portion of my window
                          show a wall texture to create a window to
                          the sky . The result looks cool anyway 
                          and may/may not have hit you as unintentional.
                          If anyone would care to e-mail me a remedy

                          this wad heads above the average first-timer .
                          I would never have released it if I didnt
                          honestly think it rocked .
