Comments:              This is a VERY hard title, especially with people like
                       Patrick Martin around to prove the hardest levels are
                       possible, like e4m8.
                       I got D1T from DHT5, so I thought this challenge would
                       be a piece of cake.  Not so.  There are many new
                       levels in the base, and I drew one of those new and
                       hard levels:  E4M8.  The level only took me about
                       10 tries to beat, but it was a challenge for me.

E3M2:  Simple.  I really just run around with
                       bezerk fist and tear the enemy to shreds.
                       1st try.

E2M7:  Not that difficult, considering I did this for
                       Pacifist, and I killed over half the enemies without
                       hurting them then.  With the addition of bezerk fist
                       to "convince" them to get out of my freakin' way,
                       this level becomes very easy.  Did it on my 1st try.

E4M8:  This is the only level that gave me trouble.
                       Considering that there are about 10 barons, hordes
                       of shotgunners and pistoleros, skulls, demons, and
                       a spider mastermind, it is a fairly easy level - at
                       least for the hard set I think...
                       I watched Patrick Martin's lmp from the tyson
                       collection to find a good route.  He did it in about
                       13 mins - I take about 16.  Done on about the 10th try
                       PS:  The spider mastermind was paralysed at the end of
                       The level, allowing the barons to kill it (which is
                       neat).

Free interpretation:   E3M8 on NM, pacifist
                       All right, I forget how to paralyse the spider
                       And so I did it nightmare so that the enemies
                       can respawn to kill the spider.

Author info:           DOOM maniac.
                       In DHT5 I had 5 titles (Although my last title was
                       sent in about 15 minutes after the log was updated
                       for the last time, so it hasnt been officially
                       recognized yet...)
                       That includes D1M, D2M, D1GM, D1SG, D1T I think...
                       This is my 4th DHT6 Title: D1M6 D2M6 D1P6 D1T6
                       Next stop?  D1V6

Thanks to:             id, of course.
                       Frank Stajano, for his time and effort in DHT
                       Oversoul, for deathmatch-boxing with me for
                         countless hours, making me better at Tyson
                       All the people who help make DHT successful by 
                         participating
                       Patrick Martin, for being so damn good at Tyson,
                         that I could learn a few tricks about E4M8 - 
                         and for taking over the Tyson collection so as
                         to set a higher standard...but my E1M1-T record
                         (1:16) still stands!  (And, incidentally my E1M2,
                         at 4:07, but it isnt so damn good as e1m1)
