So, I have a special fondness for it. Anyway, I did it under par at UV. Didn't kill everything since there just isn't time. This was a stylistic stretch for me since I'm not a speed player, I'm a kill-them-all-dead player. But, after this little experiment, maybe I will try the D1SG and D2SG challenges. Oh, and I could have shaved off about 10 seconds if I had avoided a few dawdles. So, I figure a really good speed player could get it in 2:00 flat. Comments : E1M4 - authenticated at the start E1M9 - authenticated after cleaning out the plaza E2M2 - authenticated after killing one Imp E3M9 - authenticated, died, ran for par After conquering the D2GM title before anyone else, I slacked off and did not actively pursue completion of my other challenges. Well, I did all the required stuff on a Sunday and then got stuck on what to do for the Free Interpretation. After all with all the talent out there, it's hard to do something impressive that hasn't been done to death. Take a look at all the DOOM 2 Map07 (Simple Dead) Nightmare LMPS out there if you don't believe me. So, I decided that I'd better the D1SG folks by doing one of the levels at UV rather than HMP and still make par. It's not as easy as I thought it would be, but I still dawdle too long collecting health and ammo. Bad habit from the kill-all days. I also had to stop bouncing off the walls since that slows you down alot. Author info : I'm the first D2GM. That's my claim to fame. I'm also the archiver for the idgames/lmps directory on ftp.cdrom.com. So, I'll be expediting the delivery of your exam files to the repository. Other than that, I'm just a regular DOOM/DOOM2/HERETIC player. Of course, I have strayed off onto ROTT and DARK FORCES a bit. Sometimes even WC3. But, I always come back to good old DOOM eventually (okay, I like DOOM2 better because of the double-barrel jobber).
