Underworld results (contest page)
So, the deadline was yesterday for the underworld contest. Congratulations to Adam Hegyi, who won the Run category with a *perfect* 0:45 demo. The other competitors, Adam Williamson 0:54 & Opulent 0:56 did good work as well. Thanks for the demos! 

Not only winning the Run category, but Adam Hegyi was the only one who sent a demo to the UV MAX category. Check out his 5:48.

DM4 results
Juha 'Brillo' Ihalainen grabbed the victory with 106 frags, nice =). Check out the final results here.

Easter egg for Underworld
Mattias Berggren and Jesper Johansson recorded a coop demo. They ran a cool skill 1 MAX. Hopefully you had fun with the extra cybie =) 

Keep on sending the 'normal' contest demos also, they rock!

Reaper Rules?
Ouch, tons of email asking about the Reaper contest rules. Here's what you're supposed to do:

1) download Reaper bot.
2) start game (quake -game rbot -listen 16)
3) Use "maxplayers 16" (you're allowed to have only 8 bots though!)
4) Use "skill 0" (easy skill)
5) Use "timelimit 3"
6) bind <key> "impulse 208 ; wait ; wait ; wait ; impulse 208" (brings eight bots to the game)
7) bind <key> "record frag dm4"
8) Get the quad :)

Got questions, demos, whatever, feel free to email Mineral's.

The first Entries
Yeah, here goes two quality Reaper bot contest entries: Juha 'Brillo' Ihalainen gibbed a total 102 bots in his great demo. Not far behind Juha fights Archi with a 99-frag demo. Great stuff...

Small .QWD demos
Just about an hour ago we spent some time with Jesse playing QW. After a while we desided to record some demos in DM3... These are like easter eggs for the "Dm3 in 54 seconds" contest. Jesse is a great cameraman :)

DM3_2 (playing by Mineral, cam by Jesse)

Oh yeah yet another demo! My QW clanmate Vertigo recorded a demo (just like Jesse as a cameraman) in which I did a weird double RJ at e1m7. You should check it out...

Underworld rules?
After a little discussion with Adam Hegyi from COMPET-N about the underworld rules. Instead of UV run you should use "skill 1" which is much better (easier?) for speedrunning the map. You'll have to record your MAX demos on UV skill though. All Doom2 players grab the map and go have some "fun" :-)

Btw, another way to have fun is to try the new "Gotcha!" contest at COMPET-N... I'm sure you all love killing Cybies and spiders :-)

TeamShambler
The greatest quake SP level review site TEAM-Shambler has a weird contest going on. Check it out now, and hurry up as the deadline is already on Monday...

New contests
Allright, here goes three new contests...

1) E1M1 done Quick
The task in this contest is to beat my 0:24 run, which is the current record at SDA. You'll have to get 0:23 or better to win, and 0:24 to enter. You think it's impossible? Nope, it is not :-)

2) Reaper bots in DM4 - deadline 20th March
You got three minutes in DM4 against eight Reaper bots. Frags, frags and more frags...

3) Underworld - deadline 27th March
This contest is a DOOM2 contest. Your mission is to complete one of my old Doom2 maps, Underworld. There will be two categories: UV run and UV max. Download the map HERE.

Markus does IT!
After many weeks of running, Markus Taipale wins the e2m1 contest with his awesome 7.97 run. Not far behind Markus, Attila ended up with 8.01. Now when the fight for the hundreds of seconds has finally ended you might want to check out the final results for the contest. Thanks to everyone who took part in it and congratulations to Markus.

New contests will be up soon! E1M1_023 (or faster?) would be interesting... =)
