These maps were really, really bad. REALLY BAD. I’ve had Doom experiences that I hopefully never will again. The “quality” of these maps ironically speaks only of the actual skill of the mappers, because it takes true creativity and knowledge to beat hordes of newbie mappers at their own game. I won’t soon forget this, and I can really only thank all the entrants.

We’re quick to criticize new mappers, but sometimes we lose ourselves in cynicism and forget that once we were all terrible at this. Enjoy these maps, and next time, help that new kid make a door and an elevator and a staircase. Nobody wants any more of these maps than is truly necessary.

Enough preaching! These maps suck. Play them, share them, and love them all! The Abyss extends a massive thanks to everyone who entered!
