The /newstuff Chronicles #402
Many die-hard Doomers would rather poo their pants live on the six o'clock news than play someone else's Slige maps. It's fair to say that Doom map generators unleash abominations that look like they came from the womb of Shub-Niggurath, and are as much fun to play as a game of American football where your testicles are the ball. Did this deter the Skulltag forum members? No, they paused for nary a second when one of their number announced, "I know! Let's build some maps that look like they came from Slige!" (more)

Odamex Saturday Nitro #25 - Staph1 FFA (9:50 pm)
Classic Doom - Posted by HumanBones
- 3 Comments
Odamex Nitro would like to dedicate this session to one of the lead developers, Dr_Sean. He showed up from nowhere about a year ago and started fixing Odamex bugs like a madman. Before he became a full-time Odamex developer, he and some of his work buddies worked on a 6-map deathmatch set called staph1.wad. It may only be 6 maps, but these 6 maps are fantastic for large or small games, and do not get old fast being rotated. Thanks for all your hard work Sean.
WAD: Staph1
Maps: 6 (map01-06)
Mode: 10 player FFA
Fraglimit: 100

ZDaemon Thursday Night Survival #26 - Scythe 2 (Part I) (4:10 pm)
Classic Doom - Posted by Evolution
- 7 Comments
We're making an early return to the Scythe series in this week's edition, but don't expect the same antics that went down last time though. This sequel steps things up a notch. There's larger maps with larger hordes to keep you busy; some nice gothic and Egyptian themes going on too. The map list is halved so we can save some for later. Fear not, there's plenty of pain rotations to go around. Oh, and don't forget to bring your mic along. - Skill: Ultra Violence
- PWADs: scythe2, scythe2-extras, tskins1e
- Maps: 01-21, 31, 32
- Lives: 1
- Players: 25/50
- Servers: [L@P] & [DUI] NJ
- When: 20:00 GMT (Euro session) / 20:00 EST (US session)
There's even more survival this Saturday as ZDS hosts Obituary - a very old school 1995 PWAD for Doom 2 - Nightmare! style. Just grab the latest version of ZDaemon and join all the fun.

ZDaemon Thursday Night Survival #25 - Base Ganymede: Complete (5:15 pm)
Classic Doom - Posted by Evolution

We've played through Khorus' works before, and that session was certainly one to remember. Well, Base Ganymede is finally complete, a three episode replacement for Doom set on one of Jupiter's moons called Ganymede. These maps look like they'll cater nicely for just about anybody who enjoys ripping shells into demons, so come down and make your presence felt!

On another note: Just how good is your aim? This month plays host to xc7, instagib style, for the official Euro New School Tournament February '12. It's open to players outside of Europe too.

The guys at id have set up a GitHub page for all the studio's open-source efforts. This of course includes the source releases for Doom, its recent iOS port, and of course Doom 3.

It's time once again for another Nitro session filled with BFG, BFG, and more BFG. And well, what better fits that description than Exec? 17 small, cramped maps filled with a bunch of maniacal Doomers. Does it get any crazier? Well, maybe that omgmaps session...
