I can tell you I've got a LAN right here and bog standard quake is still just as boring with pings of under 20.  But QR rules!

I agree about Doom being better overall for multiplayer but I find that there's more skill involved in Quake because it doesn't come down to luck as much as Doom.  But Doom is totally better if you do a 'First to 100 wins unless the 15 mins expires in which case the highest wins'.  (Thats just the kind of
DMs we like :-).
