Hmmmm... Vancouver BC.... now WHO do we know from that area... ?
*snap* I GOT IT !!
You, my friend, are a lucky son-of-a-gun ! You just HAPPEN to reside in
the same breathing space as the famous ERIC *snap* *crackle* *pop* Leung !
The self appointed DOOM-GOD who brazenly emptied his nostrils in the face
ID's John Romero, by proclaiming his DeathMatch superiority (BTW, I don't
mean the nostril blowing in the LITERAL sense... if he hadda used Romero's
noggin for a kleenex, he'd *still* be ironing out the Ferrari dents in his
forehead. :) ).
In the last episode of "As My Stomach Turns", we found Eric residing out
of the country..so stay tuned for his return to our fair shores when you
can get the chance to challenge him. If you want his email address just
download his file from INFANT2 (15regv2.zip) and read the "humble" <G>
text file.
As I've said before, the guy seems to be able to code quite well, but he
could use a dose of modesty to keep us on his good side...
Anyways, I wish SOMEBODY would play the guy, whether locally or over TCP or
IHHD or AT&T or whatever is cheapest (I don't have access to any of those).
Even if they lost, at least we could get an LMP or their impressions on his
actual skill level. Eric has stated that he accepted Romero's challenge, but
a suitable date couldn't be arranged for the match. That's fair enough, but
hopefully some of the more ambitious DOOM experts can be waiting for his
return to "the continent" and give him an opportunity to face the best DOOMers
in North America.
So (to the original poster), I'd suggest you make sure you're pretty good,
and then email Eric for a match when he returns. In the mean time, you
should check out some BBS's local to you; every one in my town has more than
a few DOOM fans willing to take a shot at me (which reminds me, I'd better go
get a new mouse; the old one's got SO many notches in it, that it's practically
useless! <G>).
Good luck and keep DOOMin 'n' DeathMatchin' !
