I already knew this level since I did it on UV as my free interp for my Doom 2 Master exam. Should have tried to do it under Par on UV instead of HMP, but I'm more interested in working on my advanced title exams. Oh, yes, I "pretended" that this level is a "Peaceful Start": I ran around to the back of the guardhouse just south of the start to do my dance. The monsters heard me, but I could just finish the dance before the sargent found me and started shotgunning me. Comments : Map07, 22 seconds under Par (2:00), 100% Kills. It was fun. : Map26, 11 seconds under Par (5:00), 71% Kills. This level is supposed to be "medium" but I found it was much harder to complete under Par than Map16 which is classified as "hard." Note: I pretended that this one is "Peaceful Start" since even though the monsters hear me while I'm doing my "dance", they can't shoot at me. This can be done much faster cause I fell three times. :( : Map16, 26 seconds under Par (2:30), 30% Kills. This is a fun level. I always liked grabbing that Invul sphere and laying waste to all those monsters that teleport out. :) This level is really not that hard for Speedy Gonzales purposes. All you have to do is get the supershotgun so you can deal with the revenants, then grab the BFG and rock. : Map20, 20 seconds under Par (2:30), 35% Kills. This was my second choice for my free interp. lmp. I was working on doing Map13 on UV with 100% kills: a real tough level from scratch, but it's good for practicing for a Doom 2 Tyson exam since you need to use berserk a lot at the beginning. I managed to punch out the lost souls the imps and demons as well as a couple of cacodemons in the building where the pump shotgun is, and kill the revenants before I died, rather stupidly, I might add. Anyway, I decided to do Map20 under Par since it's excluded by being listed as "Hardest." I'm working on my Tyson, Incubus, and Grand Master Exams right now. So, I'll save Map13 on UV for one of them. Author info : They call me Bowman because I like rockets. I'm a Ph.D. student in philosophy. It probably shows in that I don't know how to stop writing. So, I'll just shut up now. (:-{D>
