Misc. Author Info       : An avid Doomer since 12/10/93 (The Day),
                          now working with a cool new P90 (Yay!)
                          at home and the 386/40 (Yuck!) at school.
                          A sophomore at U of Michigan, currently
                          studying CS.  I haven't made a deathmatch
                          WAD yet, so I had to try my hand at it!

Description             : A deathmatch designed with fun and balance 
                          in mind.  The feeling of this level is fairly
                          open, just a few largish rooms and some
                          interconnecting passageways.  It's not
                          intended to be a frag-fest, but more of a
                          fair competition.  (Average life span is
                          greater than 5 seconds... :)

                          Everyone has a weapon nearby when they
                          start, generally within 10 or 20 feet.
                          All players start with 200% health, to
                          make the battles a little longer lasting.
                          The deathmatch spots are designed to 
                          eliminate unfair "start-up frags".

                          Every weapon is available, although it is
                          more and more difficult to get to the
                          more powerful weapons.  There are some weapons
                          sitting in cages, with a switch next to 'em;
                          hit the switch to give access to that weapon
                          elsewhere in the level.  
                          A quick rundown:
                            Rocket launcher:  switch and weapon itself
                              are in the arch-room.
                            Plasma:  has two triggers, the switch and
                              walking on one of the ledges.
                            BFG:  The easiest weapon to get, but you
                              pay if you do.  Or, go the hard way (no
                              secrets involved, but still a long ways
                              to get there), find the BFG-in-a-cage,
                              and get it that way. You'll be off free
                              as a bird.
                            Super Shotgun: (Doom ][) Check the green
                              room.

                          It's a very good idea to play this level with 
                          the alt-death rules.  <hint hint>
                          The exit switch is clearly marked, non-coop,
                          and can't be hit accidentally.
