Comments                : Overall, I thought DOOM I Grand Master (E3M7)
                               prepared me rather well for this one.  After
                               much thought, I decided to add Map09 to the
                               base.  It definitely belongs in the MEDIUM
                               set.  I also added Map24 to the base.  It's
                               a MEDIUM.
                         Map03:  The first time I played DOOM ][, I got to
                               this level and thought that there was no
                               way to get through the big room with all the
                               Imps and Chaingunners.  Good to look back
                               on that and laugh.  Dance is right after I
                               kill the shotgun guys through the window at
                               the beginning; otherwise, they wake up and
                               blow you away.
                         Map30:  At first, I couldn't believe that this was
                               only a medium level.  But then I tried it a
                               few times, and realized that its not much
                               more difficult than normal monsters.  Dance
                               is right at the beginning.
                         Map29:  I couldn't believe that I'd 'lucked out'
                               enough to get the last 2 levels of DOOM ][.
                               Set to work on it, and in 3-4 days had this
                               demo.  Just took alot of 3 a.m. playing
                               sessions, complete with all the
                               characteristics of an all-nighter:  Plenty of
                               pop, candy, cookies, and Advil.  Do my dance
                               right at the beginning.
                         Map09:  When I went looking into the current base,
                               there were only 3 levels left:  Map09, 23,
                               and 24.  I have -never- beaten Map23 on UV,
                               let alone with -fast.  (No patience)  So, I
                               tried Map09, and then thought I'd add
                               Map24 with my FREE.  This one should be
                               EASY, but you -do- have to think a -little-.
                               (As in, Don't kill all the Lost Souls 'til
                               you've knocked out most of the PE's)
                         Map24:  I did this one (as a substitution) for my
                               D2M.  -Fast is not much harder.  I rated it
                               MEDIUM because it's harder than Map03 but
                               not -too- difficult.  About the only hard
                               part is the driving.  (Shaddup, I didn't fall
                               off -that- much!)
Author info             : DOOM obsessed student who has trouble doing any
                         real work.  Once all the files get processed, I'll
                         be a D1M, D2M, D1SG, D2SG, D1GM, and D2GM.  I'm
                         currently working on D1T, D2T, D1I, and D2I, should
                         be done soon.  And, yes, in a fit of insanity, I
                         ordered a D2S challenge, but it will probably lay
                         dormant for all eternity.  I've created several
                         levels of my own, all of which are quite a
                         challenge on single player, and -very- fun on DM.
                         They can be found in a group called DOOM3.ZIP.  I'm
                         also working on a series of demos of both DOOM I
                         and ][ on Fast monsters, starting from "warp
                         conditions."  I just got tired of watching other
                         people's 'normal' demos, so I thought I'd put my
                         money where my mouth is and make my own.  They're
                         called U-WIMPS.ZIP.
