Description:	The second in a series of exercises that dares participants to break away from the trends and ideas typical in day-to-day Dooming. The challenge? Create a map that best depicts a theme generated by jmickle66666666's level theme generator. Themes were created, numbered and then hidden from participants, who were made to select a number at random in order to be assigned a theme. The event ran for just under two weeks, totalling 11 maps. These maps are designed to be played from pistol start.

Reviews:

Zalewa	The last map is a sudden steep increase in difficulty and breaks the otherwise consistent flow of the WAD. And that's the most important part here: all 11 maps are not only good, but they are consistently good. It's 4.5* because of this break in consistency but I'll round up to 5.	x
AnonimVio	my map's shit rest is good	x

Music       : "Unyes" by Jimmy

Comments    : small brick keep with a wormhole sitting in its belly, leading to a 
              barren alien landscape.

Name        : The Mass for the Fallen
Author(s)   : DoomLover234
Theme       : A Christo-Judean Arcology giving way to A Sheepish Little Slice of 
              Hell
Music       : "Triangle of Fear" by Mark Klem
Textures    : none

Comments    : How I went by the title; literally. Made a building that's pretty 
              high, made it in Christo-Judean style, of course, I've added hellspawn 
              and many teleporter traps to symbolize devils overtaking this 
              sacred piece of land. I think it's balanced enough. Also, fun fact; 
              I've never completed this ma without resurrecting or giving medikits 
              to myself. Always died at least once.

Name        : A Cyst in Coldness
Author(s)   : NoisyVelvet
Theme       : A Cyst in Coldness
Music       : "Shawn's Got The Shotgun" by Robert Prince
Textures    : CC4

Comments    : Only a little ways into making it, i was like "oops, i bit off a 
              bit more than i can chew". If i had more motivation and time, I 
              would have made the map santa-themed, and disguised Romero's head as 
              Santa, and make a goofy story about "Santa's untreated butt-rash that 
              went rampant after Christmas eve".

Name        : Infectious Deceptious
Author(s)   : Doomkid
Theme       : The Infected Colonnade below The Cliffs
Music       : "Sunglasses At Night" by Corey Hart, edits by Doomkid
Textures    : ???

Comments    : I really like the theme I was given, I love constructing outdoor areas 
              in Doom and this let me do so excessively. For some reason, my theme 
              made me imagine some badass 80s hero with a leather jacket and 
              sunglasses scaling cliffs, and I knew right then Sunglasses at Night 
              was the only MIDI I could use, so I got working on fixing that up. I 
              really enjoyed making this!

Name        : Streetlight Manifesto
Author(s)   : joe-ilya
Theme       : Several Blue Amphitheaters hammered into London
Music       : "Private eye -by- Alkaline Trio" from midimelody
Textures    : none

Comments    : It's an easy to understand title, round blue areas with curvy stairs 
              scattered around as sandbox buildings, since it's set in london I put 
              a big ben as the symbol of the famous city. I made the amphitheaters 
              look hammered by placing them in random illogical locations.

MAP07
--------{---(@

Name        : All Aboard The Soupship: Quest for the Golden Ladle
Author(s)   : Surreily
Theme       : Some Soups morphing into The Cloudship
Music       : "Cloud Soup" by Jimmy
Textures    : 32in24-15

Comments    : I was delighted that I would get to make some awesome soup textures 
              (okay, they're not that awesome) and decided to make a kind of sky 
              ship thing that would then lead onto an island where something would 
              happen. Later, I decided to use one of my custom sprites as a 'golden 
              ladle' and set it as the objective of the map. The map features some 
              3D floor illusions (you will fall into the ship's main area, then 
              again onto the island). The ship uses a very red/blue/silver/black 
              theme, so I used my other custom sprite as a red lamp to help it fit 
              in.

Near the beginning, you'll find the big red screen, which displays 
              some information about the soup contained on the ship. When you open 
              the blue door inside the ship, you'll enter the soup storage area and 
              see the soup containers hanging onto the back of the ship, suspended 
              by steel beams. This is also where you'll jump off the ship and land 
              on the island to finally claim the legendary Golden Ladle. There is 
              also a teleporter in each area leading back to the deck of the ship.

Name        : Cretaceous Cogs
Author(s)   : Pinchy
Theme       : The Steampunk Secret on the Prehistoric Ocean Floor
Music       : "el dorado never shined as bright as a well oiled ass" by 
              jmickle66666666
Textures    : Aquatex V6, pystex, 2mbrown

Comments    : The original idea was to build a ruined underwater base that leads 
              down to a sea floor situated prehistoric museum with a secret to 
              reveal. I mixed in new tech parts so that it gives the impression that 
              the museum was built into the ruined base itself.

General texture use was going to include steampunk brick, brass, 
              bronze and rust as the introduction joined to lower parts by high tech 
              installations which became the shipyard and water control systems. 
              Items I wanted to include were gears/cogs, water systems with pipework 
              and moving water, prehistoric fossils and sea floor views to big pipes 
              with flashing lights, catwalks and an underwater volcano. The 
              technical aspects such as the main lift with light and the crane that 
              opens the drain and raises the water level in the upper pipe area were 
              unique ideas I enjoyed building and the most complex I have ever 
              built, especially the lift reset.

I generally enjoy working with water and machines so I had a cascade 
              of ideas for cool underwater systems for this one, some which failed.

Overall this was a damn fine Jmickling featuring his Aquatex and 
              music.

Comments    : I'm a simple person - I see word "triad", I think of RoTT. I solved 
              the "floating" problem by putting F_SKY1 on the floor. Yeah, I'm not 
              creative person.
