First I got a HMP run in 1:57 and thought what about UV? So I tried it and got splattered a LOT! Then tried going straight for the Blue key using the Bezerk Pack and it was a winner, netting a 2:50 run. A little more polish nabbed this 2:07 run. TIME 2:07 PAR 2:30 Comments: Quit a few people have commented that the SG should be changed to UV. I think it would be ok ... but I also think most of us with titles missed the point (certainly I did). This is supposed to be a BASIC exam and by inference should be done before the advanced exams. I would be a better player now if I had done these exams first. Even so they have helped me think about working thru a level efficently. Still, looking at these exams I see lots of room for easy improvements. MAP03: Really like this MAP, trying to squirt off the ledge into the little underground side room always gives me a rush. Probably not necessary for this title but just too fun to pass up. TIME 1:27 PAR 2:00 MAP15: Knew this MAP from my D2M exam so when I saw it here I thought: How would it be possible to get much under par on this? But watched 19nm4658.zip and saw how to book thru. TIME 1:29 PAR 3:30 MAP16: Wow, did not know what MAP16 was so when the screen for the start room came up, I was shocked. Only did this MAP once when playing thru the whole game. All I could remember was that it was a real bear, even when saving the game a lot. TIME 2:02 PAR 2:30 Author info: Have been addicted to performance from about 11 years old. Racing of any kind; slot cars to SCCA Formula Atlantic, Motocross to WERA Production Roadracing, Autocross to Solo II - parking lots to airstrips. Mitsubishi Diamond Star Classic Ski racing, Short Board sailing, USPSA Tactical Combat, Competitive Slolam Water Skiing, USCF competitive Chess, Triathlons, Biathlons, CAT III racing, Marathons, 5Ks, 10Ks ... don't care can never be clean enough, fast enough, smooth enough ... zen enough. Always push the envelope. Just wish my Doom envelope were closer to SW's. This is my 5th title. D1M, D2M, D1T, D2T, D2SG, D1SG, D2GM ^^^^ (Last three also complete, all will go up together)
