Free interpretation     : E3M5 - No strategy, just plowed through it -fast

Comments                : All levels were done at Ultra-Violence with
                          the -fast option set.

                          E1M1 - Authenticated at the start.
                                 Not much to say.  It's easy even when 
                                 the monsters are fast.
                               
                          E2M1 - Authenticated after killing the first
                                 batch of pistol dudes.

                                 The key to success it to get the shotgun
                                 as soon as you can.  You should also
                                 avoid grabbing the blue key until after
                                 you have cleaned out the lower level.
                                 You get the drop on the beasts if you
                                 just teleport in without showing your
                                 face through the window.

                                 After that, just blast your way through
                                 to the exit.

                          E1M5 - Authenticated after killing everything
                                 on the base level (on both sides of the
                                 door).  I would have done it earlier,
                                 but I got carried away with slaying
                                 and forgot for a while (I did some
                                 window sniping before I remembered
                                 that I was doing an exam -- old habits...

                                 Again, the trick here is to get the
                                 shotgun as fast as possible.  If you don't
                                 you're toast.  Especially with the fast
                                 spectres.  I find that just plowing through
                                 the creatures works best.  Sometimes you
                                 can scoop up the gun from the shotgun
                                 charlie in the lobby... but don't count
                                 on it.

                          E3M9 - Authenticated after cleaning out the
                                 outer areas (before going through the
                                 wooden door).  After that, its the standard
                                 march through the monsters.  In fast
                                 mode, the Cyberdemon plants itself quite
                                 a bit farther from you than in normal UV.
                                 So, you have to aim better.  But, it is
                                 actually easier to kill it because the
                                 when it walks left or right, it doesn't
                                 move much so you are almost always on
                                 target and can just mash down on the
                                 fire key.  I killed him before the
                                 invulerabilty wore off.

                          E3M5 - Authenticated at the start.
                                 This is my free interpretation.
                                 Since I've run out of ideas for new
                                 things to do on old levels, I figured
                                 that doing a level that no one has done
                                 yet was the best say to show off my skill.
                                 The significance of this level is that
                                 I did it at 4am after working for 20 hours
                                 and flying from LA to Oakland, then
                                 driving home for an hour.  So, It's like
                                 a really tired marine (which he should
                                 be by the time the Unholy Cathedral
                                 rolls around).

                          I am not keeping up with Phidias, but then
                          again, no one else is either.
