Free interpretation: Episode 1 Nightmare until death.

         Not much to say about this except that it will not take very
         long to watch this.

Comments: " ... the often discussed 'impossibility' of playing at
         'Nightmare!' skill is a prejudice."  This line is cut directly
         from Steffen Winterfeldt's D1S-SW.TXT file.  In my case the
         same applies to -fast.  If I play -fast the same as straight
         UV, it soon becomes the same.  If I think that it requires more
         caution or whatever, then it will.

Addition: E3M4 (Medium)
         I have seen this Map way to many times but it was one of the
         two available for expanding the base so here it is AGAIN!

                             The stats are:
                                     Kills           100%
                                     Items            93%
                                     Secrets          50%
                               TIME   17:03         PAR   2:30


       E3M9: Unlike the other GM exams I reviewed, I used the first
             Invulnerability Sphere to punch out the Specters instead of
             on the Cyber Demon since he is harmless and it helps
             conserve ammo, which is a plus for this Map.  Forgot to
             even pick up the Plazma Gun as it is not needed using this
             strategy.
                             The stats are:
                                     Kills           100%
                                     Items            91%
                                     Secrets         100%
                               TIME    8:12         PAR   2:15


       E2M4: Tina Edwards added this Map and commented that it was
             necessary to watch the ammo a little.  I used Phidias
             Bourlas tactic of keeping the Imps and Barons in their
             rooms (in circular underground area) to help out with
             this.  Unlike Phidias, I used the shotgun on the Cacodemons
             to do this because I think it makes a more interesting LMP.
             This tactic helps out on ammo to the point that I never
             fire the Plazma Rifle (do not know why I even picked it up).

                             The stats are:
                                     Kills           100%
                                     Items            60%
                                     Secrets          90%
                              TIME    16:03         PAR   2:00


       E1M3: This is the Map that started the Nightmare Free idea.  When
             I saw how hard it was to get out of the start room on -fast,
             I started wondering how anyone could do this on NM.

                             The stats are:
                                     Kills           100%
                                     Items            73%
                                     Secrets         100%
                              TIME    6:06          PAR   2:00
