How fast did you finish E1M1?

I finished it in 12 seconds.

9 seconds. World record is a 6 seconds

On average around 10 seconds.

I never really tried to finish it fast. I guess around 30 seconds is the fastest when I am just playing casually.

A couple minutes.  I like to take my time and enjoy it.  Music's great.

It's a well known fact that Doomkid holds the current world record with his 0:06.

That's what she said!

In all honesty, I have never even tried to speedrun any of the Ultimate DOOM maps because I love most of them.

Entryway is a different story. D_RUNNIN makes me evacuate the map quicker than a pothead's bowels after a night of Taco Bell binging.

-32 seconds

Fourteen hours.

Fastest time for me is around 15-16 seconds on HMP difficulty.

Takes me 9 seconds.

believe it or no, 5 minutes xd

Man, everyone else was just gonna IGNORE me, too.. I am the current glitchless WR holder indeed:

However, some expert level exploits have extremely reduced the exit ensemble. I have a playlist of god-tier E1M1 speedruns here, and one of the stand-out runs would have to be CRT's:

It's super rare to see DOOM gameplay on this level.

Bro... I had my headset volume on full blast...

Took me a while the first time all the way back in 1994.

I first "played" doom with a friend (looking over their shoulder and sometimes taking the controls), and when he loaned me his shareware disks I brought it home.  Playing by myself I was so disoriented by the first person perspective that I couldn't find the way out of the first room.  I could go up the stairs and see out the window, but I didn't know how where the door was.

For a few minutes, I thought "I'm Too Young To Die" was meant to be taken literally, in that the first skill was just meant to be a way to show off the engine without running into monsters.  This was further reinforced when I restarted the game as HNTR and of course at that point you're at the good angle to see that the hallway on the right actually goes somewhere (though it's still not the most obvious thing at 320x200).

But then, knowing where the hallway was, I double-checked on ITYTD and then felt very foolish as the hallway was there too.

Oh you kids and your memes. I decided to give it an earnest try.

The traditional route is probably quicker given 4shock's record, but I thought I'd try something a little different.

Hey! My 100% totally legit -32 second run WAS earnest! Don't you undermine my ^"capabilities^"!

Well, I decided to give it an actual try and got 11.46 seconds for UV Speed on complevel 3. Here's the demo: E1M1_UV-Speed.zip

You humour me greatly with your arrogance and contempt, a flood of accusations born from the poison of envy and smite of disrespect.

I got 12 seconds on UV speed, but I didn't video it :(

Thirty seconds.

My fastest is 13 seconds.  Maybe I could reduce it to 12 or even 11 if I tried for long enough.

11 seconds is my best time and I doubt I could do it any faster. 

13 seconds

I'm not good at speedrunning but I'm fine with that

Jokes aside, here's me completing the map in 10 seconds

I don't think I'll be able to achieve a 9 though

1 minute and 10 seconds.

Please put volume warnings on shit like this. My ears are still ringing a minute later, zero laughs were had :/

Fine, I'll post it.

This was over a year ago and I'm pretty sure I could do better now, but it's not worth it. I remember mindlessly grinding this for over an hour to get this time, and doing that again to improve by a fraction of a second doesn't sound very appealing. The amount of skill and grinding needed to get 8 seconds is ludicrous. Basically, this map sucks to run.
