Game and version used: Ultimate DOOM v. 1.9

Substitutions? no

System used: 486DX/2 66Mhz with S3 VLB, sound galaxy 8 bit stereo
            & 8 meg ram.

Controls used: Microsoft mouse with keyboard as follows:
               A: Speed on
               W: Strafe left
               R: Strafe right
               E: Forwards

This is a new key config since my last dht titles.  The seperate strafe keys
make it a lot easier to dodge.

Free interpretation: E1M7 Speedy Gonzales style.

Level           Par             My time         Difference

E3M5            1:30             :43            :47
E3M9            2:15            1:39            :36
E2M6            6:00            3:54           2:06

E3M5: Easy when you know how.  Just the one key needed, and with beserk and
partial invisibility bonuses on your side, nothing can touch you (or else!).

E3M9: I had recently been playing this level quite a lot, so I found it very
easy.  The thing that makes it so easy is that you can grab the invincibility
from the cyberdemon room, take a truckload of rockets with you, and anything
that gets in your way ends up as a mushy red paste lying on the floor.
[see end part of lmp after I get the red key, shotgun guys.]

E2M6: This level always used to get me very lost, but it now seems a lot
smaller.  Main problem area is the red key.  Once you get it, quite a lot of
traps are opened up and trying to run through it all is suicide, which is why
you see me clean up a lot of dogs first before I go into that room.  Blue and
yellow keys are simple to get, just a snatch and grab job.  I try to kill the
pink dogs in two shotgun shots, so when the last dog in the level had taken
two shots and hadn't died, I gave him a good punch in the head for it. :)


FREE: E1M7 Speedy Gonzales style
Found it hard to think of a free for my title but here it is.  Ranked as
hardest in the base along with E1M9, it ain't a piece of cake.  The real
problem is the shotty ammo.  Near the end after you pick up the blue key a
trap opens which has a few shotty guys and a box of shells, but I decided
not to take them this time.  The mega armour and soul sphere helped me
greatly, especially when I was out of shells so I was left to take hits from
troopers without shooting back.  My time was 2:31 out of the 3:00 par.
