IDKFA, IDDQD, IDDT... if these are familiar to you, then IDSPISPOPD should certainly be as well (unless you started at Doom II). But it may interest you to know that IDSPISPOPD or SPISPOPD isn't just a random jumble of characters. It's actually born from a Usenet post which emerged before Doom was even released, back in November 1993. This is a tale of excitement and anticipation amongst Usenet Newsgroup users. A tale of a game which would emerge from this excitement which no one suspected, and before Doom would even arrive. That game was SPISPOPD and it has a very special connection to Doom itself.

Many thanks to Octavius Kitten (v15 year old Eli) and Slopes Game Room (SPISPOPD Diary of Events) for their voice acting skills. Check them out on Youtube, because they are awesome;
