It may be the ad I saw in a magazine about a year ago(more or less.)
I saw the ad in a computer games mag of somesort(which I had bought/saved
it for that ad!) It was after I first heard about the game and
maybe seen one screen shot. I never saw the ad again. 

It was mainly just the doom logo, but that tag line ('have an excit...)
sounds familiar. I think they expected to get it out much sooner
so they sent out the ad, fell behind,never posted the ad again.
So I think it was for the share, mailorder release.
