Doomkid	5 pretty darn good DM maps, most of which can be found in LBDWANGO.wad. Using "Finish Him!" as a pain sound must have been SO ANNOYING, but other than that, 3.5*	x

                          DOOM ADDICT! (Of course!  ;)  )
                          Also a qualified L.O.R.D. and Exitilus nut!
Description             : Ahem, here goez...

All the sounds sound a lot more realistic and less harsh sounding now. Such
as that deafening roar emitted from the plasma gun when firing off a single
shot! OUCH..You may also wonder just how Shang Tsung got into DooM! ehehe
The ENDOOM screen has been replaced, without taking away from iD's
credit BTW, plugging our local DWANGO server and of course this awesome series.
Just go check out all the nifty new things in here...

This applies to MOST levels:

Skill levels 1 & 2    -The rocket launcher is the best weapon
                          available (depending on your opinion! >:) )
   Skill levels 3        -The Plasma gun is the highest weapon available
                          here.
   Skill levels 4 & 5    -BFG is the highest attainable weapon.

******************************* NOTE: *******************************

- MAKE DEMOS ON THIS WAD AND SEND EM TO ME! I WILL INCLUDE THEM FOR EVERYONE'S
  VIEWING PLEASURE!

There will be six other collections of five levels each, along with all the
FX. Look for the individual levels (they are released sooner) on the INet
as BACRDIxx.ZIP where xx is the level. I will make 32 levels in all in the
Bacardi series. So look forward to MANY more quality levels, and WAD's...

Also be on the lookout for Morbidity 2 (MORBDTY2.ZIP)! The awesome sequel me
and Anonymous are working on for Doom2 also. Look forward to more awesome
special effects, sound fx, music, and poss. textures (?). Be on the lookout
for RAPNROCK.ZIP, which will replace all 32 level's music, skies, all the sfx,
and implement that kewl statbar. I will start work on another series too the
SL SERIES! Levels like SLDETH, SLCATWLK, SLARENA, SLGORFST, SLBLKDTH, SLCRTYRD,
SLBASTRD, SLNUKE, SLBLAST, and such...

*WHEW* I'm gonna be busy all the way til Summer at very least! =)

And my 2 cents 'bout QUAKE...

Look NOTHING will EVER top the success and popularity of DooM, ok? I mean
nothing against QUAKE or any other past or future Doom-alike...it is just
so damn awesome! The atmosphere and the simplicity, I mean it's indescribable!
DM is so fast with DooM and just so kewl. I mean this game is so DAMN
customizable!! Maybe iD did make a mistake...THEY JUST CANNOT TOP THE BEST
GAME EVER MADE! Well I guess they should relax now. Johnny boy...just relax
buddy. Carmack(s)...go on a LONG vacation! You all deserve it there at iD!
I can't thank you enough for providing us with so much fun times, and with
such a bloody mess of a game!!!! DOOM RULZ 4EVA!

PLENTY OF THANKS TO TiC FOR MAKING THOSE GREAT (MOSTLY SINGLE PLAYER) WADS
LIKE OBTIC AND MEMENTO MORI! ALSO THANKS TO BRIAN VANATTA FOR MAKING THE
AWESOME DANZIG DEATHMATCH SERIES! THANX TO THE MAKERS OF DWELLER, MANCER,
AND QUICKEN TOO! YOU ALL INSPIRED ME TO GET OFF MY LAZY ASS AND UNLOCK THAT
POTENTIAL HIDDEN SOMEWHERE INSIDE MY HEAD! THANX A MIL! :)

* Play Information *

Episode and Level #     : Map 01-05
Single Player           : Kinda       (Just to check out the levels)
Cooperative 2-4 Player  : Um...yeah   (BUT WHY?!)
Deathmatch 2-4 Player   : HELL YEAH!  (THAT'S WHY YOU PLAY DOOM, RIGHT?!)
Difficulty Settings     : Yes         (Read above)         
New Sounds              : YES         (Pump up the volume f00l!)
New Graphics            : Yes         (Read above)
New Music               : YES         (KICKASS NIN, AIC, ZOMBIE MUSIC!)
Demos Replaced          : DEMO1 v1.9  (Read NOTE!)
                                      The demo is pretty sucky only because
                                      it was a converted between BOND and
                                      ANONYMOS on the OLD version. When
                                      converted to the new level, with the
                                      addition of sectors, etc. the players
                                      misfire. Amazingly, the total actually
                                      ended up in frags (2-0 I believe)! I
                                      just inserted it cuz, well, it was there
                                      and BOND and ANON. are my good buds
                                      anywayz.

                          graphic-modifying program? Crappy anti-aliasing as
