Welcome…
This new version of the Daily Imp is still being tweaked and massaged. Please feel free to offer any input, advice, feedback or complaints by using the Contact page in the main menu... still to do: the categories are a bit of a mess, plus there are some well-known maps that need to have posts about them. ALSO, new policy: whenever I see an informative or entertaining post on the the Imp_List group, I'll repost it here.Ads

I strongly recommend this game." -- Rob "Xemu" Fermier, Irrational GamesArchives
