Comments                : MAP03
                            Too easy; decided to substitue it with
                            the three HARDEST levels (MAP13, MAP20, MAP24)
                          MAP09
                            This level is well classified as MEDIUM.
                            It can be hard if you don't know the "trick"
                            to the level, which is to save any rooms with
                            excessive lost souls for the end. This prevents
                            those damn pain elementals from firing any
                            skulls. (How nice of them!)
                          MAP13
                            The hardest level in the set (IMHO). My strategy
                            is NOT to authenticate at the start of the
                            level, (I do it in the room with the 2 "holes")
                            since this wakes up the demons that
                            teleport in when you take the rocket launcher.
                            The invulnerability may now be used for other
                            purposes, like fighting the spiders/cacodemons
                            without worrying about being hit.
                          MAP19
                            Not much to say about this one. I got this as a
                            HARD level, but it's more like MEDIUM, or even
                            EASY.
                          MAP20
                            MAP20 is NOT that hard. This is my favorite
                            level in this set, but it just isn't HARDEST.
                            I think this is a fun one to watch (or play,
                            for that matter) anyway. I get off to a bad start
                            with the chaingunner, but the rest of the level
                            goes quite smoothly.
                          MAP24
                            Many people have trouble with this level, but I
                            think it's fairly easy, and actually quite fun.
                            I am VERY sloppy in this lmp (took me six tries
                            to jump down those red pillars!), but finish
                            with 100% everything and 200% health/armor.
                            BTW, after I kill all the demons in the blue room
                            I still hear someone growling, and it takes me a
                            few minutes to realize that it might be a lost
                            soul.
                          MAP07 (Free interpretation)
                            Basically, I did everything described on the top
                            of the DHT home page using only the super shotgun
                                DOOM II, Level 07, Ultra-Violence, starting
                                with a pistol, ending with 100% everything,
                                200% health and 200% armour. This is the
                                sort of thing that the DHT is about. If you
                                play like this, the DHT is right for you!
                            Amazingly, I got this after a few tries, but
                            wasn't recording my attemp. :( It must have taken
                            me about 50 tries after that to get it right,
                            and I still didn't do a good job. (It takes me
                            8:13 and I go down to 5% health near the end.)
                            I decided to keep it anyway, mainly because 50
                            tries is enough.

Author info             : My first title. I hope to conquer all 5 basic and
                            advanced titles for DOOM ][ before the big
                            QUAKE, since I have no intentions of playing
                            a game which looks like "A sad little cartoon".
