Comments:              Pacifist is by far the MOST intricate challenge yet!
                      Not only can you NOT pull out the BFG and turn him to
                      chunks of meat, but you can NOT EVEN pull out your
                      pistol or punch him into submission!
                      It makes for a VERY different playing style, and I
                      enjoyed it tremendously!  How about a round of applause
                      for the guys who dreamed this up!
                      When I began this challenge, I thought it would be
                      like Tyson style - not so!  The skills used are in
                      some respects the same (like the dodging and clinging
                      onto every shred of health) but Pacifist concentrates
                      more on dodging and survival when running through the
                      bowels of hell, while Tyson encourages you to go
                      wild with fist or chainsaw.  In many respects, Tyson is
                      MUCH easier, because one can punch out the demons
                      onesself, but in another way, pacifist is easier
                      because you don't HAVE to kill all the enemies.
                      What would be interesting is trying to get a
                      Incubus/Pacifist or Pacifist/Master(or Tyson - makes
                      no difference) or Velox/Pacifist (Pacifist/FAST
                      monsters?) mixture. (Just for the helluvit :)

                      Anyway, enough babble.

                      E3M7:  Definitely easy, though I don't look very great
                      in this lmp (I just started playing doom again - 1st
                      time in a month :)
                      I don't know what I am doing, and I only have a sketchy
                      idea of where to go.  I could redo it...naaah
                      Authentication is almost at the end (I do it while
                      watching lost souls infight) .

                      E4M5:  Not that I have much qualification for making
                      this call, but 4-5 is an easy medium.  A little bit
                      of luck, a need for speed, and a few tricks make this
                      level simple.
                      Get the green armor - it really helps, and it drags
                      the imps away from the door to the red key room
                      Once you get the soul sphere, dodge the first skull
                      and just ram into the second.  Because his attacks do
                      so little damage and he moves backward (and you have
                      approx 150%H and a bit of armor) you will make it out
                      of the passage with a decent amt of health.  Then, it
                      is a race for the exit.
                      Authent at begin

                      E2M7:  Not so much hard as it is long and demanding of
                      attention.  The blue key is easy to get to.  Use the
                      baron and imps and cacos to kill off the demon
                      population in the next room.  I think the baron even
                      died but I'm not sure (I can't find his body in the
                      lmp.  Get the 1st invuln to get the yellow and get to
                      the 2nd invuln.  Use the second baron to kill everyone
                      and drag all the imps from around the red key to the
                      baron to be "processed" hehehehe ;)  The hardest
                      part of this level is keeping your mind on what you are
                      doing.  My attention slipped a couple of times, and
                      I nearly paid the price (Baron got me with a huge
                      scratch, two demons nearly trapped me in that same
                      place and then I calmly watch as the imp hits me with
                      a fireball)
                      Then, it is just easy to duck the caco and hit the
                      switch.
                      BTW the second baron dies - his body is in the corner
                      where the spectre is.
                      37:08 minutes of boring material
                      The authent is in the red key area, after it has been
                      mostly cleared out (just outside yellow door)


Free interpretation:   E4M9, pacifist and a bit of E4M3

                      I just FELT like doing 4-9 pacifist, and then
                      I realized I forgot to authent so I do it in 4-3
                      (after clearing out some baddies) and then I fight
                      half heartedly until I die.

Author info:           DOOM maniac.
                      In DHT5 I had 5 titles (Although my last title was
                      sent in about 15 minutes after the log was updated
                      for the last time, so it hasnt been officially
                      recognized yet...)
                      That includes D1M, D2M, D1GM, D1SG, D1T I think...
                      This is my 3rd DHT6 Title: D1M6 D2M6 D1P6
                      Next stop?  D1T6

Thanks to:             id, of course.
