And the Winner is...

Simo Malinen for his entry, f'em - mayh'em.

The 2009 Cacowards had a contest asking participants to base a map off the Doom Idea Generator. I received two entries and between them, Simo's map was the winner... although it was almost disqualified since you kill more than 3 imps!! You can download the two contest entries below. The winner receives a copy of Action Doom 2 :P

Heh, I missed this. :p But I already got a copy of AD2. :D

That contest was serious?

Yes, well, this one is signed.

And?

(No disrespect towards Scuba intended, I'd feel the same about anything autographed by the author)

Doom+ loads it but with a general noclip and HOM mong-up, and it crashes Boom and PrBoom+ immediately.

(At least the contest didn't have engine requirements, so no problem there.)

You're probably not alone in such a situation:

Hehehe. I was hoping if I worked on a map and kept my mouth shut, no one else would take it seriously. Then Simo Malinen comes and blows my crap to pieces :D

Congratulations Mr. Malinen! I had fun playing your map.

This message is not a crash. PrBoom can't work with this wad and reports about that.

True, I was just lazy. I tend to use "terminated" in these cases.

I really liked Simo's map. Looked pretty, and close combat Baron fighting is always intense. Thumbs up.

I actually started making something for this too, but didn't finish it on time, as per usual.

Edit: I just played them, and

I'm pretty sure you actually kill the same three imps twice. Pretty clever rules-bending.
