Description:	A DEATHMATCH ONLY wad for Doom][. The general idea I had when designing this level was to keep it fair. Everyone starts in a similar area and gets a chance to pick up a shotgun before they enter the arena. Almost anything that one player may decide to try, an alert player can attempt to prevent. The exit is cooperative, easy to figure out. (Hint: There may be a little more than the exit switch in the red room! keep an eye open for it to lower when someone goes for the rocket launcher, and you'll be well prepared to handle them when they re-enter the arena! :) )
Credits:	Ben Morris for designing the best DOS Doom editor out there, DCK! The entire staff at Renegade Graphics for putting out the only Windows Doom editor that doesn't crash every five seconds, DoomED Deluxe! (Soon to be called EgoED) The author of "Photographic," a MOD which I converted to MIDI and then to MUS for game music. Alexander Stock, author of the MOD2MIDI utility. Olivier Montanuy, author of Wintex. Virgil Itliong, for the sky texture from his well- designed CHURCH.WAD Herb Myers (EET) for _EXTENSIVE_ 2 player beta testing. The entire gang of Doomers at Surf Board BBS for comments and suggestions!
Base:	New level from scratch
Build time:	Way too long!
Editor(s) used:	DCK 2.2, DoomED Deluxe, WinTex, MOD2MIDI, MIDI2MUS, TBSP
Bugs:	So all the textures may not be perfectly aligned. Sue me! I did my best to get all the major ones though... :)

***PLEASE NOTE : This is a maintenence release v. 1.01 of cntrmsur.wad, and 
                 is NOT compatible with earlier versions... Just a few minor
                 adjustments of vertex positions, and a new (cooler) LMP is
                 included. After 40+ hrs of playtesting, I discovered that 
                 the BSP program had somehow created a very small  (as in
                 several pixels wide) hole you could fall into and get 
                 trapped in... highly unlikely, but possible, as I found out!
                 :) Well, this may or may not interest you, but I just wanted
                 to explain the reason for this update... thanks for playing 
                 my WAD and enjoy! :)
