Alpha Man (computer game)
There are several MS-DOS games named Alpha Man that are arguably notable, and this one is none of them. My best guess is that it's yet another Young Zaphod/Doctor Octagon/Herb Gilliland vanity article. If you polled every roguelike expert on Wikipedia -- save YZ -- I predict that none of them would ever have heard of this. Nandesuka 22:31, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom; no hope of expansion if it's none of the known MS-DOS games. Danny Lilithborne 00:29, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Please cite your sources for it being 'not known' Herbert Elwood Gilliland III 19:08, 11 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep this is my favorite MS-DOS game. Herbert Elwood Gilliland III 18:58, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I contest User:Nandesuka's use of the word WP:Vanity here, as it is not a game I wrote just played. Also, I don't think Nandesuka is being fair or at all considerate. Herbert Elwood Gilliland III 19:08, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
