Gordon Posted September 10, 2019 I died on MAP17. Jumped into a small pit thinking it was a secret. It was not a secret. Category 2, I knew about that part in MAP21. tvr_gordon.zip 4 Share this post Link to post

Suitepee Posted September 15, 2019 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/481942678 Cat 2 run, I died on map 12 to some kind of impromptu Hell Knight sandwich. Disappointment. 5 Share this post Link to post
Havoc Crow Posted September 22, 2019 (edited) https://www.mediafire.com/file/osfdro6phk4zjvd/DWIronman_tvr_JudgeDeadd-1.zip/file Dead on MAP03 because I fucked up and let an acid-dwelling arachnotron fry me, then, just as I was reaching for a medikit, a shotgunner from nowhere finished the job. (A pox on these acid rivers with no radsuit in sight.) Dammit!! Guess I'm occupying the coveted last place this month. Category 1. I've played this mapset before, but it was years ago and I remembered nothing that could give me an advantage. 3 Share this post Link to post
Vince Vega Posted September 28, 2019 Wow, such chilling. Hunger and thirst couldn't stop me from finishing it. I've even done MAP33 from tvr!midi.wad to get the royal flush (fantastic tracks TBH, liked it a lot more than Plutonia MIDI Pack). You won't believe, but I played Revolution! for the first time, though have heard of it many years ago. So, here's pure Category I entry. dwitvr!.zip Vincent's retribution gone right. 5 Share this post Link to post
Pegleg Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) I really like Alfonzo's decision to allow both a Category 1/Category 2 submission and a Category 3 submission. I may be the only person doing both, owing to the fact that I perform so poorly that I have the time to do both, but I still like his decision. It means I actually get to submit a blind run and still be able to actually passably prepare a run. Granted, I don't have time to thoroughly practice and prepare (and it tends to show toward the end of runs), but I like it nonetheless. I usually do my blind run in the first few days of the month and the "prepared" run a few weeks later. Without further ado... Category 1 Dead on Map 02 Kills: 6/59 Time: 10:11 Playing blind, without sound on, doesn't bode well for long term survival, especially when you fail to notice the demon sneaking up behind you. Creeping around and looking carefully around corners can help your survival chances, but missing the one that actually holds a monster, generally doesn't help matters. Category 3 Dead on Map 03 Kills: 4/91 Time: 11:03 I will admit, I didn't handle the beginning of Map 03 very well. I hadn't managed to get past Map 03, so I figured the run was going to end there, what with the caliber of enemies taking a big step up. Still, I would've liked to have made it a little farther in having come in with over 90% health. Oh well. The fun of Ironman runs. This was a interesting mapset. I may, at some point, play it on a lower difficulty level to see more of it. It had some nice features, and it seemed like there was even a storyline brewing. Interesting choice for this month. I wonder what it bodes for next month, since Alfonzo typically precedes or follows "more difficult" mapsets with "easier" ones. On 9/22/2019 at 4:53 AM, JudgeDeadd said: Dammit!!

dt_ Posted September 29, 2019 cat 2, stature reduced on map23 I'd played up until map15 with the club a few years back, and I'd seen the warnings on the teeth area, map20 iirc accidentally played the first 2 maps with mouselook, didnt realise, sorry No secret maps, but one cheeky exit on map08 3 Share this post Link to post
Crusader No Regret Posted September 30, 2019 Rolling in with a type 2 entry near the end of the month. It may have been over 10 years since I played this set but I remember some things such as the start of map 6. Other things I don't remember so well. Map 8 nearly got me and map 10 threw me for a loop. Finished 11 maps and quit due to exhaustion. PrBoom+ 2.5.1.4 -complevel 2 I'm going to pass out now. dwironman_tvr_cnr.zip 3 Share this post Link to post

Crusader No Regret Posted September 30, 2019 This is likely within my skill level to survive with a prepared attempt, had I set aside time to prepare that is. The pace would be faster too since I wouldn't be cautiously creeping around nearly as much. Got engaged with some very non-Doomy stuff though. When I did fire up Doom, it was making progress through the Alfonzone. Completed about 3 (out of 10) episodes in that set this month. There's something deliciously ironic in that being the mapset that I spent Dooming instead of trying to prepare for a category 3 recording. 1 Share this post Link to post

I just forgot to actually attach them to the message. I rectified the situation by editing my original post to include the demos, in all their glory. 1 Share this post Link to post
Alfonzo Posted October 1, 2019 It's October 1st. I've done it again, McCain! Cat 3, died on MAP14 because I started running around like a headless chicken not knowing what corner to jump into, overly mindful of the cyberdemon (which I'm pretty sure fired exactly 0 rockets) and partially distracted by Dan Aykroyd's babbling on about UFOs in the podcast I was listening to. I should have put on something less stimulating in its weirdness... or maybe something not at all weird, like Steven Pinker. dwironman_39_alfnz.zip I look forward to further realizing my dwindling Doom skills next month this month, holy shit. 5 Share this post Link to post
