Grazza Posted July 8, 2019 Icarus by TeamTNT Map14 (Fortress of Evil by Robin Patenall) UV Speed/Pacifist in 1:11 Old time: 1:13 (2006) Didn't spend long on this, which is probably fairly obvious.

Grazza Posted July 9, 2019 Build by Tyler "picklehammer" Pantella Nightmare! Pacifist in 0:15!! Old time: 1:04 (in 2004, with Boom) Wow. I can't believe this happened. Probably my luckiest demo ever. Really. See the txt and watch with the walkcam. builnp15.zip 2 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted July 9, 2019 Revolution! (TVR!.wad) by Thomas van der Velden Map10 (Lab of the Lost) UV Speed in 0:36 Old time: 0:37. Settling for a one-second improvement because it is a frustrating run based on a very random trick. tv10-036.zip 1 Share this post Link to post
vdgg Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) Looking at http://doomedsda.us/player229lmps.html, there's Fava Beans on top. The first demo: E1M3 NM Speed in 0:57.

elmle Posted July 9, 2019 Nukemine Episode 1 UV-Speed in 5:23 (66 second improvement) nukemineall-523.zip I believe I saved time on all but one level, the biggest one being map 3 because of an accidental 30 second lock in skip, which I wasn't prepared for so I freaked out big time. 1 Share this post Link to post

Grazza Posted July 10, 2019 STRAIN by The Alpha Dog Alliance Map21 (Maintenance), UV Speed/Pacifist in 0:04 (Old time: 0:06 - well, this was my Stroller from 2005, but it was also the current Speed and Pacifist record, so I think this counts!) Getting it below 5 seconds took some effort. This is 0:04.97. st21p004.zip SKULKEEP by Marcus Malden UV Pacifist in 1:06 (Old time: 1:22, from 2004) No route changes, but a little less cowardice. skulp106.zip Thy Family Consumed by Eeva Marin Nightmare!

I have myself a few demos which are faster than the DSDA records but I'm going to re-record them if I want points, not just write a .txt. Are they all old? The post asked for 2 points although there are 5 posted in that thread, so I assumed 2 of them are new. 0 Share this post Link to post
vdgg Posted July 11, 2019 No, it's me checking one particular demo and its date stamp (which is easy to change anyway). Didn't pay attention to the numbers. Sorry, my bad! Though this way of posting entries is not the most obvious in the world. 1 Share this post Link to post

GoneAway Posted July 11, 2019 It would be nice if you noted which demos, and how much the improvement was, as per the rules, cyber :^) 0 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted July 11, 2019 (edited) The rules also asked for the relevant demos to be posted to this thread, which would help keep things much clearer for everyone and save kraflab in particular some effort. Obviously any demo posted here (or any "Beat ...Month") would belong equally well in some other forum thread. STRAIN by The Alpha Dog Alliance Map20 UV Speed in 0:24 (Old time: 0:58 from 2005; well, this was a UV Pacifist/Speed, but still the Speed record, and it was arguable whether it was truly Pacifist in any case) Using the same route idea as in vdgg's episode run and in my nomo. I tried for a while to get this to work with archie splash damage (and thus a true and unarguable Pacifist), but no luck. It is yet to be established whether that might work at all. st20-024.zip 1 Share this post Link to post
vdgg Posted July 11, 2019 City of Doom MAP05 UV Max in 7:59 (old: 10:34, 24% improvement). The best map in the WAD in my opinion. cd05-759.zip 2 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted July 12, 2019 A couple of more recent demos beaten: Aboo4 by Bob Reganess Map01 Nightmare! Speed/Pacifist in 0:24 (Old time: 0:26 from 2018) I noticed a route cock-up soon after recording that one, and use the improvement here. ab41n024.zip Base32 by Caleb "Radromity" Sizemore UV Pacifist/Speed in 0:17 (Old time: 0:22 from 2012) Same map-smashing error exploit, but more effort put in to dodge demons. I suppose that back in 2012 I naively assumed the author would soon be uploading a fix and thus leave any demos orphaned. bas3p017.zip 1 Share this post Link to post
elmle Posted July 13, 2019 JCM1 Episode 1 UV-Speed in 14:13 (61 second improvement) jcm1e1-1413.zip It seems like I typo'd my old runs demo filename as 15:13 when the time was actually 15:14, because the demo said 13 I ended up writing 13 everywhere else too.
