Comments                : E1M3 - Easy, once you survive the start. I get the
                         shogun quite cleanly and it's all downhill from
                         there... NOT!! The shiftkey on my keyboard got
                         stuck whilst legging it form the room with the
                         first soul sphere to the acid pit with the rocket
                         launcher. This makes movement quite precarious and
                         I get stuck a few times. Still finish it with 200%
                         health and armour (via the normal exit). Dance at
                         the beginning.

                         E2M9 - Don't like this one very much - I like to do
                         my own killing :-). Get ready for the dance as soon
                         as I get out of the tomato room. Bit silly to step
                         back into the path of the barons "sweaty palms"
                         scent, but I survive. Note the incorrectly pegged
                         texture on the sector that the blue key is sitting
                         on. It's been there since V1.2, surely someone must
                         have noticed, jeez.. ;-)! I end the level with
                         hundreds and narrowly par it.

                         E3M3 - I take the fairly conservative approach by
                         killing the first demon and then legging it for the
                         box of bullits and the chaingun. This doesn't go
                         very smoothly but I scrape through, even though I
                         make the mistake of thinking I've killed both imps
                         in the cage - until the survivor takes a healthy
                         chunk out of my shoulder. Futher down the line I
                         get a bit loose in the blood pit because its full
                         of imps I woke up while getting the chaingun. Dance
                         is before I raise the platform with the two demons.

                         E4M1 - You've got to love it! It took me days to
                         figure out how to get all the monsters out, then
                         another week to work out a strategy to make do with
                         the limited ammo and health (not a single medikit
                         on the damn level!). I can still only do it once
                         every 10 attempts. I've experimented with trying to
                         lock the spectres and the barons together in the
                         palindrome room, but can't do it. (If you can,
                         send me a lmp!). The key to a successfull run lies
                         in not taking too much damage but still stopping to
                         aim well to conserve ammo. This is why I nail the
                         first baron with three rockets to leave enough
                         shotgun ammo to mop up the last resistance after I
                         kill the others. In the lmp I recorded (attempt 13
                         -nerves I guess) for the DHT the first baron gets
                         to nail ME twice as I get distracted by an imp.
                         Futher scary moments ensue as another baron has the
                         sense to take the long way round, - first time
                         that's happened. Dance is after I initially clear
                         the courtyard and get the rocket launcher. I forget
                         to show you that a skull wall rises if you walk
                         over the palindrome, but, who cares? -It's not a
                         violent affair.

Author info             : I'm selfemployed doing a lot of subcontracting in
                         PC hardware and installing small Win95 peer-to-
                         peer networks for dokters and small businesses.
                         I play a lot of computer games, notably racing
                         simulations and, of course, DOOM.
                         I feed my doom-addiction by regulary watching other
                         peoples lmps and playing pwads.
                         Future plans include desinging a pwad of my own and
                         getting more involved in deathmatching and multi-
                         player gaming in general.
                         On a personal level people say I tend to be long
                         winded from time to time... surely not?
