Free interpretation : MAP18, Master style. I felt that if I was going
weasel out of a HARD, I should do one for
a free interp. This is an easy "Hard" --
relatively speaking
Comments : I believe that MAP28 should be rated HARDEST
because I cant do that one, yet I can do the three
HARDEST with no real problems
Heck, if I took the time to redo MAP13, I could end
With 200-200 Health and Armor, just that that time
I forgot about the 2 cacodemons, and that level
takes so @$%!^$@ long, I said, who cares, I have
170%. The other 2 I ended with 200-200. Yet
I cannot beat MAP28.
MAP04 was easy, as it should be
The hardest part is the beginning, where
there are zillions of shotgun and chaingun
guys and you have only pistol. Once you
get a weapon, its smooth sailing from then
on.
MAP17 is my least favorite map. Partially because
I can never remember how to beat it.
Many Thanks to, I think it was Jonathan
"Hunter" Hoof...yes, the guy with every
title except Schwartz, for his route...I
think it was his, anyway.
Dance right before the elevator into the
left imp sanctuary, after killing
The Baron of Hell.
MAP28, I did not complete, partially because it is
near-impossible. If you wanna see someone
MURDER this level...not in master style...
not in Grand Master style....but of all
things in TYSON STYLE, get D2T-AVM.zip
Its awesome. Hats off to Anton
Magleli (AVM)!
I think this level should be rated hardest!
MAP13, Thanks to watching Andreas "Anthe" Kren's
lmp 6 billion times (D2M-AAK.ZIP),
was as easy as pie. Just one mistake on
this level...after I had collected the
supercharge, I remembered a couple of
cacodemons I hadnt punished yet so I didnt
end with 200-200. And it takes too damn
long to record that lmp so I just left it
as is. Shouldn't be rated HARDEST. Try
HARD
MAP20, Gotcha!, was fun, to say the least. Using
Andreas "Anthe" Kren's route again (Same
zip as MAP13), it was less of a challenge
and more like a stroll in the park. But
I hate those Pain elementals!
Those stupid skulls get too close to quick
for my rockets! This map is at MOST a HARD
maybe even a MEDIUM.
Ended with 200-200%
MAP24, and guess who's route I used?? That right,
Kren's route Again. He's got some good
routes! I suggest if you are going to
attempt this level, you download his exam
right now. This is an easy level, the
hardest part being the thin rails and
staying on them. I suggest using the
keyboard for that part, as it doesnt require
speed nor agility. I designated . to turn
left and / to turn right, and took it slow.
Dont fall in the pits with the cacodemons,
there are no teleports in them. Also, avoid
fighting cacodemons on the rails.
The reason I use the mouse at all in this
level is for accuracy, circle strafing
(Watch the First Imp Massacre) and after
the teleport with the dead guy hanging over it
I shoot the skulls, quickly turn around and
shoot the other skulls. You cant turn that fast
keyboard.
This level is a HARD, but for Keyboarders,
should seem more like a medium.
Author info : All I really want to say is that I just got
and just got on DHT and you should see me
again in the DONE entries...This
should be my 4th title...D1M, D1SG, D1GM,
and D2M
More still to come, as soon as I find a new
NM level in Doom2....
Oh Yeah, and my Internet address changed from
the challenge. Is is not
[email protected]
but is now at

Happy Fragging!
