Misc. Author Info       : A programmer by day who is WAY to busy to be doing this by night,
                         but I do it anyway. DOOM is just that much fun! heck, I might end
                         up DOOMing all the way into my 60's!

                         Check out my website at http://theSil3ncer.tripod.com (Coming Soon)


Description             : A re-release of the first of my *completed* abominations released
                         to the public. The previous release had a bug in the yellow door.
                         Was supposed to be a Halloween special, but I find election days
                         MUCH more scarier -- Um, I mean black friday =)...

                         Story:

                         Just as you where about to take your much deserved vacation, you
                         receive a distress call from UAC, another alien invasion, hmm...
                         You can barely make out what the operator is saying, so you press
                         your finger against your earpiece, hoping to at least capture some
                         of what he's saying. The man's voice sounds a bit frantic. You
                         reminisce on the last alien invasion and wonder why this guy is so
                         worried. Until you hear that this time, the aliens have invaded the
                         local mall. Several civilians are killed. Well, you're always
                         cleaning up people's mess, so you might as well clean this one up...

                         Ending: This is DOOM, but hey, let's provide an ending story:

                         Upon discovering the portal that the inhabitants of hell used to invade the local
                         mall, you decide to seal it off. You can only hold these demons back for so long.
                         Plus, backup should've arrived by now. As you wait for what seems like an eternity,
                         you decide that it's time to take matters into your own hands. You reach for your lucky
                         grenade and toss it into the portal, destroying it. Hopefully that should do it. Now,
                         as for the employees responsible for this carnage that damn near cost you your life,
                         well, they are in hell, they wanted it that way anyway. But from now on, you decide that
                         you will begin a boycott against that particular shop.

Notes:
------
1. Don't be a wimp, play this wad in the dark the way DOOM is supposed to be played.

2. Wad was meant to be tough on UV for first time players, so please don't send me any
emails regarding the skill level, instead, play the skill you are more comfortable with.
