--------------------------------------------------------------

I was really just going for the Eagerness Bronze Badge, but this was going pretty well.  I was torn between Running Man and Shottyhead, but I decided for Shottyhead because I like shotguns.  I took the Whizkid detour too late, so I never got to build my assault rifle.  One thing I like about AoI is I don't have to worry about whether to drop ammo for health packs or vice versa.  Thus, I was carrying insane amounts of ammo that I could never hope to burn through.  I also paradoxically didn't have to worry about health as much, because I normally delay using medpacks and hope to find a health globe or berserk pack.  Here I actually spent a lot of time at 100% health or close to it.  Hell's Arena, easy; Chained Court, oops I ran out of berserk in front of the Arena Master; Hell's Armory, no thank you, not without any source of healing; Halls of Carnage, straight-forward; The Wall, never appeared, and even if it had I never once found a rocket launcher; Hellgate, I had to retreat back into the room to kill all the cacodemons, but the Bruiser Brothers were actually pretty easy when I started hiding in the room as well (but the shotgun took forever to kill them).

First thing that happens when I get into hell, that damn unholy atmosphere chased me out (any other mode and I probably would have stuck it out; I had 100% kills still because I still like killing things) and into the Unholy Cathedral to escape.  But then I got the bright idea that I could turn count the Angel of Death (and I had the piercing chainsaw to help me end it quickly).  So I cleared out the lost souls, lured the demons through the lava, just barely got a level up for another level of Hellrunner (I thought for a while about just getting Shottyhead and getting the hell out of there), and unleashed the Angel.  I could move 15 times before it couldn't move usually, but sometimes it would get off 16.  I circled around a bit hoping I could see a pattern, but it was beyond my attention span so I just decided to go for it.  First hit, the moment of truth... Hey, he didn't attack back!  I might actually kill him!  Yeah, let's move around a bit and prepare for another strike.  15 moves, and... ouch.   Okay, did I miscount or is this going horribly awry?  I circle around a few more times checking out his pattern without seeing any logic to when he gets 16 moves, so I move in for another hit, and I die.  Oh well, 9 bronze badges left.

(I don't know why my message log looks weird; it doesn't report any of my hits but the last one, or the first time the Angel hits me)

that's strange, your final trait isn't there either.  Bug report?

Pretty gutsy, going for that kill on AoI!

^This.  I don't know if I would've tried it, myself.  :P

It's there.  He's level 8 and I count 8 traits listed.  It looks like he got Shottyhead instead of Hellrunner, after all.

I've been meaning to report that.  Whenever you use the "look" command, it overwrites the last message in the message log.  It usually isn't a big deal, but it can be a bit of a nuisance if you do it at the start of a level and miss important information in the "level feeling" message.

Hehe, I guess I didn't remember things very well even just a couple of minutes after dying.  I came to the conclusion that it or Finesse would be the best choice for beating the Angel of Death (I was thinking Finesse could go up to level 3 normally, but saw on level up that it didn't), but for some reason I didn't go with that.  Well, the fact that I did choose Shottyman (man, I was still a whole level-up away from Shottyhead?) is all the more reason for me to high-tailed it out of there instead.  Don't know what I was thinking...

Well, I had decent attack speed and good movement speed, and I really like killing things.  I had the possibility of taking him on in mind when I made the piercing chainsaw.  But I never got a good chance to take Brute for any level-ups, so I wouldn't have actually entered the Unholy Cathedral for that purpose.  I just found myself escaping through the Unholy Cathedral stairs, and convinced myself that it was possible.  If only I had a combat knife...

Oh, right, it was Shottyman, not Shottyhead.  I misread it.  :)

You were definitely fast enough to do it, but no med-packs means no margin for error.  (And with no Ironman or TaN, you can only afford to screw up once or twice)  When I outspeeded the AoD in my run, as careful as I tried to be, I still screwed up enough to need a couple of large med-packs.  Not that I blame you; I know how tempting it is to try for YAAM even if it's risky.  :)
