So there will be an event in my city, and guess what: John Romero will be there and will play classic doom deathmatch against the fans. The event will be hosted at my university, so wish me luck against the master Very Happy

Well they didn't say which port, I suppose it will be in original doom with dosbox emulation, or maybe chocolate doom (I suspect this because the whole event is quite oldschool, there will be C64 games and such). In any case, I will tell about it once I've been there. Smile

So, the port was GZDoom, we played Doom2 map07 (4 player deathmatch). Although I was ill, I managed to get into the final round where the players with best scores played dm against each other and Romero. It was tough but I won the match. The hardest thing was actually that the weapons stay dmflag was off, so you really needed to grab any weapon you can, as fast as you can.

Overall it was fun Smile

Well done Body-Guard! Glad to hear you had fun. After all, that's most important.

Interesting settings indeed. Not something we're used to here, so you had to adapt. Looks like you did well. Smile

There was no particular reward, the final round itself was not even planned originally (I think), though it makes sense to have something like it if there are enough good players. After the deathmatch round, Romero signed basically any stuff the fans brought.

I got a Doom poster at the event, and he signed it. I didn't really bring anything else, I was there for the challenge Smile
