Talk:Maximum Doom

The maximum doom levels are all taken from old ftp depositories like the idgames archive. I know most of these wads are on the archive mirror already but some are not. All of the WAD accompaning text files say its ok to distrubte. The sound clips and images in Monty Python and Simpsons DOOM are fairuse, and are mirrored on idgames already in anycase.
 * The above was clearly written by someone who hasn't seen the compilation. All of the text files certainly do not say that (the majority of the WADs don't even have text files, and therefore must be assumed not to permit redistribution).  "Fair use" has a fairly limited definition, and tossing samples around to decorate your project is not included, as The Verve discovered way back when.  And no, they are not mirrored in the archive, which has a strict anti-bootleg policy.    Ryan W 01:13, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

Removal of contradictory statement
The summary given for Quasar's edit is as follows: "Removed contradictory statement; the BOX claims 3000, but 1830 is only 61% of 3000. I don't call that "nearly" by any stretch of the imagination. Nearly 2000, maybe." Just wondering, since the statement says that Maximum Doom has ~3000 levels, but 1830 PWADs, were all of these PWADs single levels? If there were enough with say 4 or 5 levels in them, I don't believe it would be too difficult to bring the total number of levels up to around 3000. --Eris Falling 23:10, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
