Giftdropping is also something hard to deduce by oneself.

Feeling dejected after the above spoliered mortem, I gave the ITYTD Blademaster run outlined above a go to boost my morale. Lo and behold, in my awards list are Explorer and Conqueror(my first ever), despite many of the special levels being missing(including Mortuary/Limbo, no YAFW for me >.<). This seems odd to me - if I knew I could have cheesed those two badges, I'd have done so ages ago =P I guess technically the achievement(visit/clear all generated levels) applies to ITYTD, since I did complete every level that showed up, but... that's not all of them =P feels a bit cheap(though of course that's never stopped me before, lol).

Hell's Armory/Deimos Lab, Unholy Cathedral, Vaults, and Mortuary/Limbo never appear on ITYTD. They are simply never generated, therefore are not included in the overall generated special levels count. If you enter all the special stages, you get Explorer, and if you clear all the special stages, then you get Conqueror.
Spoiler: Opinions... (click to show/hide)Personally, I think Mortuary/Limbo should be generated on ITYTD. The sooner people know about that hellhole before progressing to HNTR difficulty, the better.

Spoiler: Response to spoilered opinions (click to show/hide)I suspect it's not included because it would make full wins too easy. For example, I personally would farm ITYTD JCs for Apostle rank, the way I farmed AAo666 Cyberdemons for that rank.

Oh you and your cheesing and farming.
YAFW should not be a concern for people learning how to play ITYTD. YAAM, maybe. But definitely not FWs.
Sereg:
Well, sure, but it's gonna come up anyway. The first thing any player with a nuke and an invulnerability is going to do when he reaches the Mastermind is save himself the trouble of the fight by safely clearing the floor with the nuke, whether he knows about YAFW or not.
It's possible that most players in that position won't know about the nuke BFG active, but that's the only thing preventing it, I think.
I agree with you, I'd be happy to see more special levels in ITYTD, since it is a learning level. I just think I know the reason that particular one isn't there... and it's players like me, lol.
