Misc. Author Info       : I play at the DWANGO server and I like to
                          look and study wads to see what makes them
                          great and fun.  I decided to make a wad
                          myself and got oppionons for many people.
                          Everybody said it's AWESONE, or a PERFECT
                          combo of everything for a great frag fest.
                          I guess my studying of other wads payed
                          off, if only every wad builder would just
                          take some time to look at other great wads
                          then we wouldn't see the shit that most
                          wads are.

Description             : It's a small wad, after playing countless
(Read it!)                hours at DWANGO I realized that a small
                          wad is the most fun of all because you
                          don't have to look too hard for a frag.
                          The wad is dark but not too dark, I like
                          it dark because it sets that killing mood.
                          The wad is spacy but there are columns
                          that you can duck behind.  The starting
                          points are hidden behind an invisible wall
                          and raised so that you don't get fragged
                          right after reappearing (I always hated
                          that).  You also receive the Super Shotgun
                          right when you respawn so you don't get
                          caught with a pistol against a guy with a
                          Rocket Launcher.  The Chaingun and Super
                          Shotgun are readily available laying on the
                          level. There are two elevators that contain
                          high powered weapons, it takes 4 seconds
                          for them get down and the wait could get
                          you killed.  There are also two other
                          secrets that hold goodies and are risky to
                          enter because you could get blown away. I
                          feel that you have to work to get goodies.
                          The ammo is spread out evenly on the level
                          so that you have to hunt for it, there is
                          enough ammo for a ultra fast 4 player game.
                          The difficulty settings also determine the
                          weapons available on the level, I put this
                          in to suit everybody's tastes. Finally keep
                          in mind the extensive detail in the level,
                          the support columns, the texutres, the
                          lighting and the positioning of the items
                          because I put in a shitload of time to
                          tweek everything perfect.
