Special Recs #10 - Christmas 2000
   Any demo of uDoom/Doom2 maximum three minutes in
   length,winning demos decided by Elke Schreivogel


My sister hasn't played any First Person Shooter before so it was quite hard
to impress her with the usual stuff. Only four demos were submitted, another
Map24 Pacifist demo reached me just a day too late :). Demos were renamed for
judging.

Elke had a hard time deciding the winners, too. Watching the demos, discussing
with me what she saw and so on. Note that i did not influence her decision in
any way, i just explained the tricks, weapons and normal ways to run a level.

One day i got an eMail from her stating that "DOOM verbloedet und die Fantasie
in eine Schublade des Gehirns steckt, wo sie seehr sicher aufgehoben ist", i
will not translate that :). Elke has since then played Episode 1 of uDoom on
skill 1 (dying the first time in E1M8) and then up to E2M5. While playing she
leaned to the side when strafing away from an Imp fireball :) and said after-
wards "It was quite fun to play it once but i was glad to exit the levels".
Enjoy her demo of E2S5 in this zip.

But now (Maestro, drum roll please) i end my babbling to let Elke say some
words about the contest demos.                                           .ac.

311323 (Python):
I gave this demo the 4th place, because you were very fast and you've found
many secrets, but only while being invulnerable. I think it was nice how you
made the Cyberdemon kill the Keens, because you played in the pacifist modus in
the first and second level, so you didn't break with that. You only broke with
the pacifist modus in the last level, where you fisted the enemies
(without killing them) and also didn't shot them, as in the first levels.

270119 (Arno):
I gave this demo the 3rd place, because there was too much slaughter at
the beginning. I think, that was really meant to impress me (Ralf wrote you
should do so on your homepage). But nice was, that you made two of the Imps
fight against the Demons and one of the Demons against the Shotgunner. You
also catapulted yourself to the exit with the rocketlauncher :). 

070302 (Claudio):
This demo was the 2nd place given to. That was a nice demo, but you shot
yourself, when you overtook your own rocket. Or did you just wanted to show
that you are able to hurt yourself although you're not able to aim any weapon
at yourself? Nice demo.

240318 (Chris):
I gave the 1st place to this demo. I think it's difficult to go on those ledges.
You also played in the pacifist modus. There were so many pigs and you didn't 
even harm them in any way and also let them bite you. I can't quite explain
why, but I liked this demo more than the others. Well done.
