Author:	Mike Watson, aka Cyb
Description:	My best work ever, I'd have to say. I spent a good amount of time on lighting(or at least a lot of thought heh), architecture and gasp texture alignment. In Version B: I merged the two maps, so now it's one map. Also I used a dehacked patch for the final boss(the mastermind), so now you have to kill him to exit. Because of the internal dehacked patch you can't use Boom.
Credits:	id Software for their wonderful game which, without, I'd probably have higher grades in school ;) and TeamTNT for the BOOM engine. Also Nick Baker and the Surge Team for the snow graphics and Eugen Woiwod for the sky(which is a photograph I believe). ===============================================================
Base:	New level stolen from GothicDM 2 and graphics from Overload(heh, that's a joke for you slow guys again hehe).
Build time:	Original: Two weeks New Version: Two hours(I fixed a few bugs in the original too)
Editor(s) used:	WadED, WadAuthor, CLED, NWT and WARM Wadauthor used for merging the two maps. Copy all rocks me down!
Bugs:	Should be bug free now...I hope * Copyright / Permissions *

Anonymous	Seriously flawed ! This was clearly not tested when the wads were merged ! No Exit and sector 396 had tag # 3 left in so acted as a door, like sector 19, meaning that sector 396 cannot be entered. Play artica intead, yet map 2 does not have an exit either ...	x
Anonymous	some nice spots here and there, boring fights, unreachable switch, still bugs in there, could easly have been done better 2/5	x

Game                    : MBF or ZDoom with doom2.wad
			  Note: If you use ZDoom turn off jumping since this wasn't made with 
			        jumping in mind.

Note                    : One puzzle may confuse you, but you really should
                          open your mind and remember that maybe you CAN
                          interact with the enviornment(that's a hint for
                          you slow folks).  Also, don't complain to me that
                          'the deep water hurts me!'  It's really cold water,
                          and you'd be hurt too.
