Description             : This is a DEATHMATCH WAD! Yes, there are co-op 
                          starts in it, and yes, you can play it co-op if you
                          _really_ want to, but it's kind of pointless. The 
                          exit is visible almost as soon as you start and 
                          there are only enough monsters to make DM play a 
                          little interesting for those who don't use the 
                          -nomonsters parameter.  So PLEASE don't e-mail
                          me about how bad this WAD sucks in single or co-op
                          modes. I made it for my friends and I to DM
                          in, and don't really care if it plays in any other
                          mode... That said, I do hope you enjoy it...
                          If you're wondering about the name, it's named for 
                          the large lighthouse-like structure in the SW corner
                          of the map, which is a warning beacon to all other 
                          players if someone attempts to get the BFG in the 
                          building to the east. It'll take you well over a 
                          minute to get it and get out, so try for it at your
                          own risk!

                                       tricky to get up and running, but it's
                                       one of the best level editors I've 
                                       seen -- and it's FREEWARE!!!)
