I'll join as soon as settle a bit after moving to another country next few weeks, thanks a lot! I also thought I could have missed or miss something not being there. I should finish the rankings till the end of this week (wanna post it "together as one"). Demos are being accepted up to 2th of April GMT.

@Starduster, "welcome home boy" (c) Pantera. I'm looking forward for more submissions from you, don't even think of quitting lol. @Austinado, didn't you forget to set the complevel (to 9)? It doesn't fix the Ouch face, but I think I saw it on high damage rolls... I accept your demos either way, just don't forget next time. I'm in progress of watching and filling up the stats guys. BTW, who's gonna pick up the next series?

@koren, you nailed both of these two on your YT channel, don't you wanna join? Also much thanks for showing Criticality, I got to know about it from your UV-Max!

Here's mine "super pro" demos lol. Criticality: 15 kills, 2:02. Miasma: 35 kills, 2:28. Cat II for both. dwipoisn.zip This week should be relatively calm and free for me, so I'll start watching your demos and filling out the leaderboards. Thanks everyone who submitted or plan to submit this month -- you are absolute legends! (pronounce with Karl Jobst's voice)

March, 2021 (title pics look like post-COVID-apocalyptic world lol) Yearly leaderboard sheet Standard Leaderboard (your epitaphs here soon) Prepared Leaderboard 1. [#] @Crusader No Regret: Miasma: 80. Chose to take it slow & carefully. Played too much with the infighting. Did lose. 2. [#] @Pegleg: Criticality: 10. Got treacherously stabbed in the back by the flying skull while hanging out with walking skulls. Never trust the skulls. Miasma: 31. Was a bit innacurate with the Arachnotron and chaingunner, but at the end was caught by the walking skull. Again. I told ye! What is the Doomworld Ironman League? The DWIronman League is a monthly competition in which participants aim to survive for as many levels as possible in the given map set, preferably in one sitting. Click the spoiler tag at the bottom of the post for a detailed list of rules. Players of all levels of ability are welcome. It could change the way you play Doom! It's been a while since we've being dying to the single large maps, isn't it? So I brought you two! Criticality (@Scotty) & Miasma (@tourniquet) -- you've probably heard of at least one of these absolute beasts of Doom maps, from either size, complexeness, visuals and gameplay perspectives. Being similar to each other and having common sources of inspiration (such as The Mucus Flow, @Ribbiks' works etc.), these two guarantee you either a long journey full of adventures... or a fast and cruel death. Remember and imagine all the most ridiculous and merciless traps (but also the most admirable views) and brace yourselves! Authors themselves are very welcome to join our Raid Eclair and get tried by their own masterpieces! Keep spreading the iron death, and good luck Legion!

It's been a mad February, but finally... dwialien.zip Died on MAP13 (Suicidal Tendencies) by a random (not really) Cybie rocket when trying to pretend I'm infight master lol. The time was ~2:34:23, Category II. One of my very favourite PWADs of all time, adore it with every single doomer cell in my body. Category is actually like "I've played this ten thousand times". Also got a nostalgic punch while grinding through. I'll open topic for March in nearest 24 hrs, and already has a very interesting candidate WAD. March will likely be even more mad, but I'll manage not to miss any single demo of you guys.

Arachnotron on MAP04 told me I'm not good enough to blast through WADs like this absolutely blindly. I was hoping that I am until 43:07. Music on MAP02 is a killer, so grievous and severe. dwisdust.zip @Daerik, pls ping me no later than 31st of January who of us two will take February.

PrBoom+ 2.5.1.7um -complevel 11, Category II, successfully finished 10 maps in 1:59:51 and didn't have time to go further. dwievtrn.zip Please don't let Ironman die. It's not supposed to be like this. If @NaZa can't continue hosting this League, I see at least several folks here (including me) willing to maintain it. We could host it in round-robin fashion changing maintainer every month or from time to time, or select the sole person to keep the fire. But I refuse to believe it's over. @ReaperAA, thank you for picking up the steering wheel!

Hey! I dare to disagree. De-Moon Side is one of my favourite Doom maps of all time. It's punishing and unforgiving, it's weird, it can softlock, but it's brilliant! Survived in 1:53:07. As I UV-Maxed the original 2002: A Doom Odyssey (release 2) back in January of 2014, this was mostly chilling (imagine doing this from pistol start while having way less strong Doom skills?). Still great. That nostalgic feel again... Love this WAD, no matter first-press or reissue. Category II (except for E3M5: Blood and Guts, it replaced De-Moon Side in 10th edition). Also missed E3M9 -- just forgot how to get there. dwiado10.zip

Same as @dt_: UV-only, died no so far from the end of MAP02. Seems like I will have a lot more time next months to get my DWI positions back. At least I hope so. Cat I. dwidr8v2.zip

Lord forgive me. I did it again. I lost myself in the middle of nowhere, between bars, SuicideGirls and interviews for a job of my dream, and miss this month too. I'm returning to my habitat in a few days, so I'll do an entry for the next month at the very beginning, I promise.

It's quite Epic that I'm missing Epic and this month's DWIronman installment — for the first time since I registered here and uploaded my first entry in Jan'18. Shame on me, but I'm in a long travel seven times a hundred miles away from home and don't have an access to any PC. I'll try to get back to my usual schedule in September. See thee soon.

I wish I didn't waste this invlnr, so I could finish MAP06. Map Kills Items Secrets Time Total Result MAP01 95/99 30/40 1/2 8:49 8:49 EXIT MAP02 117/117 46/46 1/1 12:20 21:09 EXIT MAP03 144/144 27/27 2/2 13:22 34:31 EXIT MAP04 188/188 22/23 0/2 16:03 50:34 EXIT MAP05 442/460 62/65 2/4 32:43 1:23:17 EXIT MAP06 368/383 5/28 1/4 16:37 1:39:54 EPIC DEATH Liked the WAD. Seems no significant difference in diffuculty from Vrack, so can be played blindly pretty decent. Up to that moment lol. Category I. Epic 1% -> soulsphere -> 101% health included (near the end). dwilate2.zip

Finally cut a few evenings at the end of month to die fast on this famous series, but then... GODDAMN SURVIVED! LOVED the entire trilogy much: the aesthetics (although I usually don't like space-themed maps), monster and item placement, the balance, secrets, ... That awesome feel when author puts you into lots of traps and massacres, but let you actually manage them, even blindly (several secrets hits were near-mandatory though). I only played Vrack 4 from Deus Vult II (it's an unofficial tribute map), and have never watched any demos prior to recording -- and that was pure dopamine to play. WAD Kills Items Secrets Time Category vrack 414/414 14/17 2/4 0:32:48 I vrack2b 720/722 48/71 5/8 0:55:56 I vrack3 552/553 65/72 2/4 1:22:11 I Summary 1686/1689 127/160 9/16 2:50:55 I Got lost hundreds of times, had to move on with 5-10% health, and many other pretty little horses things we all like. Easily one of the best personal DWIronman experiences. dwivrack.zip

Well... I'm in bad form this month. Died near the beginning of MAP02. The same reason as @Coincident's. Category I. dwibrust.zip
