Free interpretation:
        It's E2M2 on ultra violence.  What's special is that one the
        only weapon used was bezerk fists and that I end with 200%
        health and armor.  There was one point where I did lose quite
        a bit of health, though, because my strafe left key stuck, so
        this left me vunerable and I lost around 40% health.  I did
        recover to end 'perfectly' though.

Comments:
        This is my first title and I just got it today.  Needless to
        say, it's not at all difficult.  But it's a good warmup of
        what's to come as I intend on competing for some advanced DHT
        titles (which I also got today).

        E1M3: It was assigned as easy, but as far as I was concerned,
        it was the hardest of the lot.  What makes it rough is the
        fact that it's cramped with little maneuvering space and it's
        densely populated. But the par time was high, so it didn't
        really matter.
                        Time- 0:54         Par- 2:00

        E1M5: This level has all the elements of a classic deathmatch
        and solo-play level.  After E1M3, it wasn't at all difficult
        to swerve my way through those monsters.
                        Time- 1:26         Par- 2:45

        E2M1: What really slows you down is that last cacodemon in
        the rising staircase.  You have to get up there to flip that
        switch, but you just sit there and wait until he comes out.
        The demons that swarm you by the lowering wall were a pain,
        but there is plenty of health anyway.
                        Time- 0:54         Par- 1:30

Author info:
        Just another student hacker.  Started playing DOOM way back
        when in December 1993 and quickly kicked the crap out of it
        with default keyboard keys.  Sat on it for two years, and now
        only realizing it's appeal have started playing it again.  I
        am a Wing Commander nut, so I love to play them all.  When I
        started playing Descent I saw how much potential the 3D genre
        has for entertainment.  With mouse and separate strafe keys,
        I play DOOM much better and therefore better enjoy pointing
        your gun at someone and shooting.  Quake is fun in it's own
        right, but lacks the sheer 'zing' that makes it so playable.
        But as a C programmer and UNIX junkie, Quake's very superior
        in terms of customization.
