What?
Basically, my imagination is too powerful. Read it over again if it's a bit hard to comprehend.
I'm one of those people who immerse themselves in what it is. If I'm making music, I need to be in the mood. Likewise with a horror wad, I need to be in the mood. I'll listen to clinical ambient and stuff like that to get me in the zone. If you've never done this or never experienced it (I'm sure most people have though), you won't be able to comprehend the notion.
I'll work on my wad late at night. I add clinical ambient on in the background, I make sure I'm alone. When I make the map, I put random generators in it so no one can predict anything, not even myself. The sounds I used were really real, and even to this day when I play the first parts of the wad, I still get chills down my spine. This is ONLY if I play it at night, all alone, dark/quiet...etc. If I play it through the day it has no real effect when the sun is shining in my eyes. I'd rather go for a walk and hang out with friends.
The reason I do this is because releasing a wad in your name stays forever. If I'm going to release a wad, it had better be 5 star quality in my eyes or forget it. It's all or nothing. If I'm not happy with it and I don't feel others will get out of it what I want them to, then I'm just wasting my time and everyone else's time. Make sense?
Since I can't get in the mood during the day, I always do it at night. Because I do it right before bed, logically those emotions carry over with you to sleep unless you're some kind of hardened veteran. Since I'm not, I decided it wasn't worth continuing. I'll let someone else do it and I'll enjoy the horror wads on my own ;)
I don't think I can dumb it down any more for you. If you're still lost, then just forget it.
