Csonicgo Posted November 23, 2010 He is living in Pennsylvania. From http://doom.wikia.com/wiki/John_Anderson_(Dr._Sleep) : "Dr. Sleep is alive and well and currently living somewhere in the Laurel Mountains of southwestern Pennsylvania." A contributor that goes by "drsleep" edited the page. Is this fake or is this legit? What do you think? 0 Share this post Link to post
Gez Posted November 23, 2010 If it is legit, then Dr. Sleep has not been found -- he revealed himself. If it is fake, then Dr. Sleep has not been found -- it's a bunch of unbacked lies. :p 0 Share this post Link to post
Csonicgo Posted November 23, 2010 Either way, he wasnt found. We need to double our efforts! ;) 0 Share this post Link to post
Technician Posted November 23, 2010 It'd be nice to know he's still alive. 0 Share this post Link to post
Reisal Posted November 23, 2010 Doesn't Romero have some beef with him for unpaid debts he's been avoiding? 0 Share this post Link to post

J-selva Posted November 24, 2010 Ah, that's interesting. I still often wonder whether this whole matter will be settled and whether more and more details slowly revealed on this... 0 Share this post Link to post

If he is indeed a fugitive from the law, then he is quite bold in posting online to a public website that tracks IP addresses visibly. Dr. Sleep the legend will last forever, but Dr. Sleep the man may be rotting in prison for 15 to 20 :P 0 Share this post Link to post

DuckReconMajor Posted November 25, 2010 Or a prestigious Doomworld "mapmaker" was his prison guard and agreed to break him out early in return for maps he could claim as his own. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sporku Posted November 25, 2010 So... why does Dr. Sleep owe John Romero such a large sum of money? Well, aside from, you know... John Romero making people his bitch and whatnot. 0 Share this post Link to post
Quasar Posted November 26, 2010 AgentSpork said:So... why does Dr. Sleep owe John Romero such a large sum of money? Well, aside from, you know... John Romero making people his bitch and whatnot. Romero claims he loaned him $10k during the Daikatana era and then he skipped town. I cannot verify the veracity of any such claim and therefore this is not to be construed as slander/libel of any sort. Dr. Sleep always seemed like a good guy to me and I was worried when I noticed he had seemed to drop off the face of the earth. 0 Share this post Link to post

Ralphis Posted November 26, 2010 All Dr. Sleep would have had to do was pay Romero just like a few hundred to start and he would never have to worry about criminal charges ever. What a poor criminal 0 Share this post Link to post

What a poor criminal I don't think the charges supposedly pending against him are supposed to have anything to do with Romero. Romero only added that bit as his personal beef. Romero claims Dr. Sleep was involved in some kind of fraudulent activity. Again, not my words and I know nothing about it and therefore do not make any judgment myself :P 0 Share this post Link to post

Reisal Posted December 1, 2010 The question is, why would Sleep skip town after being loaned a chunk of money from him? 0 Share this post Link to post
Never_Again Posted December 2, 2010 It is all hearsay. I'll believe it when I read it in an authoritative source, not a forum post. 0 Share this post Link to post
RestlessRodent Posted December 2, 2010 The Drsleep guy added a web archive page from 6 years ago that says he lives in Uniontown, PA. Then edits that he's alive and well in such town. He also removed the last paragraph saying he's under investigation. Alot can happen in 6 years! In 6 years I moved 3 times and if he's on the run from the FBI there would be no reason why he would stay there at all, unless he's a dumb criminal (since alot of criminals are complete idiots). He could already be in jail. The better proof is what Ashley said in the discussion, he posted to more recent articles. 0 Share this post Link to post
sargebaldy Posted December 13, 2010 I'm still waiting for him to release that goddamn Waters of Lethe map he was working on. 0 Share this post Link to post
