Hacked ENDOOM screen in Doom v1.6

Eric Yick Leung was a student at the University of British Columbia, noted for taking credit for releasing the "unofficial" v1.6 release of Doom. A self-proclaimed "King of DOOM" and "DOOM-GOD", Eric challenged John Romero to a deathmatch on Usenet. Among other boastful claims, he stated that he practiced "12 hours a day", taking "wake up pills" in order to keep playing.
