I actually had the speedrunner silver badge in a beta, but I have been having a lot of trouble with it now - perhaps I had used the HP combat shotgun.  I just make a lot more mistakes when trying to go quickly, and I'm not fast at the best of times.  Armory spawned on this run, just to taunt me - I stopped and stared at those stairs in rage.  I used shotguns off and on until hellgate, very necessary for barrel levels and sergeants.  Clearing the hellgate seemed worthwhile for experience - run to the right door, kill stuff, berserk, kill the rest, more berserk, hope it lasts for the BBs.

It took a while to get a berserk in the Cathedral, which was worrying, but one led to the next vs the demons, and that was enough.  City of Skulls was almost the end of me.  Usually when I'm there in a melee game I have Vampyre.  Fortunately I had tons of medpacks to use with the Lance, and I got enough berserks there to last the rest of the game.  Necroarmor was nice, but came along late enough that it wasn't really relevant - I fought very little after that point.

I should have explored Hell 9, as I had homing phase and a nuke - but I had felt like I was slow in a few places earlier, and just phased to Cyberdemon.  That estimate was wrong, there had been plenty of quick levels to make up for it.  Oh well.  I probably could have even done Lava Pits to ensure it. :)  There's a watch on my desk and I don't play fullscreen, so the computer clock is also visible - no excuse to not know I had time.

 Before him 791 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 648 of those were killed.
 4 of those were killed by something unknown.
 99 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 22 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 18 souls claim to have killed him...
 3 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 13 killed the bastard and survived.
 2 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.

Well, at least you are still fast enough.  I play DoomRL at such a slow pace that I'm sure my UV Ao100 will run into the tens of hours without realisation, considering that my standard run takes more than an hour.
