Hell.  Slightly more than one full year (non-stop) of DoomRL-ing.

I feel miniscule in comparison.

Wow... really? 374 days? Lol, I don't think my laptop has even been on for that long.

If you are 18, then you've literally been playing DoomRL for about 5.5% of your whole life since the new player.wad format. Probably even more before that. C... congratulations? o.O

The answer has been hinted at several times but nobody has figured out how to do it yet, just think about what God Hand means.

God Hand... Apostles... Berserk?
My bet is, it's got something to do with Dragonslayer. Maybe like, wielding DS and wearing Berserker's Armor together... :P

reverse engineering will help me... but, maybe i'll try another Ao100 run/UV-100%
BTW:
with one of the legendary "God Hands", a pair of divine arms that were once used to save the world from a demon called Angra.
Ao100 fist run+UV100% :)??

Reversing is cheating.  That puts you firmly in the 'sworn to secrecy' camp.

I don't cheat... and now i don't know what to do... so if i don't have the access to the source code the only thing which could help me with info is RE, I don't want to spend a year hoplessly trying to fulfil the conditions(and idon't know what should be done).

I didn't say you couldn't do it, just that you'd become part of an exclusive club if you did.

A really cool exclusive club.

Okay, so here's the thing.  Think about the "Apostle" rank as a bonus rank of sort that you can reach eventually.  It is really not worth the effort to try and attain it.  When Kornel put it in, I voiced out that it was a little too unfair to the player due to the circumstances required to even get one of these things, let alone kill it.  So, just treat it like a bonus rank that you can get.  It was, and is, never meant to be attainable as a part of normal game play, kind of like the God Hand rank for badge count.

I rememer that on a Ao100 run there was an interesting event:
was killed by something unknown.
As far as i can remember this thing was invisible, maybe it was the enemy which i was searching for?
If so... I'll try again.
Don't remember if it was nighmare run or not... I think it should be a nighmare one, because of "Enemies indicator"

Actually, no. A fair bit of my early play involved a bit of scumming (read: I sucked. :P), which tends to rack up the play time. I haven't really played much since .992 was released, to be honest.

was killed by something unknown.

Now this has actually happened to me too O.O

I didn't really think much of it, except maybe that the guy who gibbed me wasn't in my line of sight oslt.
