*15-6*: DOOM Color Changer v2.0
===============================
DESCRIPTION:
This program modifies the DOOM.WAD files' player pictures. This
allows a you to change the way other players are viewed in a
multi-player game. If you are playing a cooperative game, you can make
the players white so they stand out and you can avoid hitting them by
accident. Or, you can make the players dark colors so that a deathmatch
game can be more difficult. This program will only work on the
registered DOOM version 1.2.

*15-8*: DOOM EasyWAD v1.11
==========================
DESCRIPTION:
This program was made for all those DOOMers with loadsa WAD
files. It produces a nice WAD selection interface, which should put an
end to losing track of all these files. (At least I get more frustrated
from finding that particular WAD file and typing all that things on the
command line than from playing DOOM itself!).

(15-15): The DOOM Honorific Titles
==================================
DESCRIPTION:
When you think your DOOM skills are solid and that no monster in
hell can be a match for your shotgun, you have two basic ways of getting
street credit. One is to win lots of DeathMatches against well-known
players, and the other is to get one or more "DOOM Honorific Titles".
The DHT is a rating system that awards top players with standardized and
universally recognized titles. If you feel proud and/or silly enough,
you can include the relevant letters after your name in your .sig and
impress your fellow DOOM players.
There are four titles to be conquered:
DOOM Master (DM): can complete any level on Ultra-Violence.
DOOM Grand Master (DGM): can complete any level on Nightmare.
DOOM Tyson (DT): can complete any level on Ultra-Violence
using nothing more than fist and pistol.
DOOM Grand Ass Kicker (DGAK): has the combined skills of a Master, a
Tyson and a Grand Master.
The titles are awarded by passing an examination. As with most
examinations, this will only be a random sampling of your
capacity. You won't be required to complete all 27 episodes to prove
that you can do it.
You will be your own judge for the results. You will receive the text
of the examination, which tells you what to do to be awarded the title
you think you deserve; from then on you just have to produce the
corresponding LMPs and upload them to a specific public place in a
specific format to be able to call yourself a DM, DT, DGM or DGAK. There
is no time limit. The LMPs must be produced especially for the
examination -- you can't just send in your old ones. This is because
there is an authentication mechanism which prevents people from
recycling other people's LMPs.
