Abyssal Speedmapping Session 30 - Icon of Speedmapping

Recommended Posts



Yeah you all know what this means! The landmark and special super important thirtieth edition of Abyssal Speedmapping Sessions. It is also the last one I intend to spearhead for the time being. The process has run its course at this point and either we can put the series to bed or hand it off to somebody else for a period of time.
In either case, I will make something special of this session. And I invite you all (asspecialy Abyssal alumni) for a big goodbye before I retire to SNAPMAP forever. Said celebration will be held Saturday May 14, 2016 at Noon Eastern time with the party possibly going on again that night. I have no idea. In any case, some theme suggestions are given, we toast to a project that should have died a year ago, and we tuck this thing into bed and kiss it goodnight.

Maybe it will wake up in June, maybe it will die peacefully in its sleep, only time will tell. Buy insurance just to be safe, kids! God bless and goodnight.

I'll be there for shits and giggles, as is the custom when it comes to asses.

Can we possibly do this a week later? I have a bunch of exams in the week after the 14th and I'm not spending the preceding weekend doing maps and stuff. If we go on the 21st I'll be there and that will be much better for everyone involved.

I'm out of town doing a Marathon on the 21st.

If enough people really want to, I'd be okay with the 28th, but the 21st won't work for me ×_×

I can't do the 28th - would be for the best to simply leave it as the current date instead, then. :c

Hi folks!

Sorry for my huge hiatus, but I've been pretty busy with a PHP web application that basically sucks up all my free time. Anyways, I am hoping to actually attend this one if nothing else pops up on ASS day.

Got distracted by the shininess* of new DOOM
Session starts in 21 hours.

*not actually shiny.

To honor the occasion, we may get a special guest appearance from a legend of the mapping community... stay tuned!

2. Plasmatacular finale spectacular (emphasise plasma gun)
3. Moody as all get out. ("Make it look like a bad place to be, just like ASS")

To fit with theme three, official texturepack is

I don't like this ASS's themes, which is why they're good for the last ASS, as I won't feel that much disappointment over the lack of future ASSes, I think.

(That said, I'm not mapping.)

OKAY SO

It's time for the final round of ass.

Your final themes are as follows:

1. Use the goddamn Romero Head (it may or may not be changed)
2. Plasmatacular finale spectacular (emphasise plasma gun)
3. Moody as all get out. ("Make it look like a bad place to be, just like ASS")
4. Pull a theme out of your ASS - use whatever limitations you want, or alternately any from this list of themes.

Use this resource WAD.

Mapping commences in 15 minutes.
