Doom II / PWAD quiz

Recommended Posts

A year has passed already since Hellbent started his Doom pop quiz thread. I loved reading it. Well, here's another one. I put some easy questions in it, so that everyone could score some points, but also some which I hope will not be too easy even for the forum experts. More PWAD knowledge is required this time. Easy questions first.

1. Is it possible to destroy a barrel with one punch (non-berserk) if the barrel has not been damaged already? (1/2 points)

2. You have rocket launcher, super shotgun, backpack and maximum amount of rockets and shells (100 and 100). You have to kill a cyberdemon. With which weapon you will slain him more quickly? (1/2 points)

3. In which Plutonia map there are 4 soulspheres? (1/2 points)

4. In which there are more monsters (levels from 1 to 32): Doom II or The Plutonia Experiment? (1 point)

5. How many Compet-N records belong to Miguel Folatelli? (1 point)

6. You have 50% health. Which of the following will more likely kill you?
- 2 revenant rockets when wearing blue armor
- 2 revenant punches when wearing green armor (1 point)

7. On which Memento Mori / Memento Mori II / Requiem / Hell Revealed maps there is Icon of Sin present? (MAPs 30 don't count) (1/2 points for each)

8. Which Memento Mori / Memento Mori II / Requiem maps use ZZZFACE4 texture (Icon of Sin face, MAPs 30 don't count)? (1 point for each)

9. Name a mapper who contributed maps to Memento Mori, Memento Mori II, Requiem and STRAIN. (2 points)

Hint #1:

Spoiler

He did not make more than one map for each PWAD.

Hint #2: (1 point deducted):
Spoiler

He co-authored one of the early levels in Requiem.

10. A demon has 150 hit points. How many hit points have red demons from STRAIN? (2 points)

11. In which IWADs / PWADs these map titles appear (1/4 points for each, there is no maximum, I would score 11 1/2 points for this question)

Numbers indicate how many maps I can recall, there may be more

a) Arachnophobia (2)
b) The Inmost Dens (3)
c) Castle Gardens (2)
d) Dead Simple (2)
e) Engineering (2)
f) Afterlife (3)
g) Genesis (2)
h) Showdown (2)
i) Impossible Mission (2)
j) (The) Reactor (3)
k) 1984 (1)
l) Last Call (3)
m) (The) Aquaduct (3)
n) Nucleus (2)
o) Outpost (2)
p) The Pit (2)
q) Quarry (2)
r) Redemption (2)
s) River Styx (2)
t) Trapped (2)
u) The Stand (2)

After the first answers appear, I will show the answers, too (hidden in "spoilers") and how many points I award for incomplete or inexact answers.

Myk has Compet-N records? I knew he had a pretty awesome name, but that's it.

I thought it would be a nice challenge for at least some of the forum members, but... oh well.
PM sent to Hellbent (with answers).

I'm gonna try my best with #11 without doing any research first, just my memory of playing wads.

a.) Hell Revealed 1 has a map called Arachnophobia dunno any others
b.) Other than Doom2.wad, no idea. Unless you count the Inmost Con'dens'ed from CLAUS1024.wad
c.) Scythe2.wad, and Scythe.wad(?)
d.) Oh jeez. I know tons of wads that have some kinda variant on this (Even Simpler, Not that Simple, Simply Dead, etc) but I can't think of any that are exactly "Dead Simple" except for wads that don't replace the CWILVxx graphics.
e.)STRAIN, and Icarus. I'm not a 100% about Icarus but I know STRAIN does.
f.) Hell Revealed 2 I think. Don't know any others.
g.) PLUTONIA.wad and Eternal Doom III
h.) Hell Revealed 1 I think. Don't know any others.
i.) Definitely PLUTONIA.wad. Never seen that map name anywhere else.
j.) Requiem, STRAIN maybe, not sure though.
k.) I should know this. It looks familiar but not sure where it's from.
l.) TNT.wad I'm pretty sure. I think one of the Memento Mori's has it too.
m.) Not sure. I think Heretic has a map named Aquaduct doesn't it?
n.) Icarus definitely, and STRAIN i think.
o.) Such a generic mapname. STRAIN probably. Not sure of any others.
p.) I know MAP02 of memento mori 2 is the feeding pit. I don't think that counts though.
q.) TNT.wad and Icarus.
r.) TNT.wad and one of the Hell Revealed's i think.
s.) TNT.wad. Don't know any others.
t.) I know the Master Levels has a "Trapped on Titan". Don't know any others though.
u.) I think Memento Mori has one. Don't know any others though.

I can't help but check the Doom wiki for the answers now.
