Challenge Champions and Badge Hunters for 0.9.9.7 (last update: June 16 2025)
« on: September 03, 2011, 15:01 »
If you're looking for outstanding mortems, look no further! This post contains the best of the best you can find in DoomRL: the Challenge Champions and the Diamond/Angelic Hunters.

0.9.9.7 changed a lot with Dual Angel challenges, so the Challenge Champion criteria are still a TO-DO.

To become a member of the Diamond/Angelic Hunters, you need to do only one thing: gain a diamond/angelic badge. Every mortem containing such badges will get a mention here, ordered by date (first name on a list corresponds to the earliest case of that received badge). A name can potentially be up here as many times as there are unique badges.

Diamond Hunters

Angelic Hunters

Good luck!

Archived Lists of Champions and Hunters
« Reply #1 on: September 03, 2011, 15:12 »
The following is an archived list of Challenge Champions and Diamond Hunters. Due to the specific criteria of Challenge Champions, only those when this system was created (version 0.9.9.4) will be archived. Diamond Hunters are archived all the way back to 0.9.9, when badges were first implemented.

NOTE: I can only archive diamond badges that appear somewhere on this forum. If you have diamond badges from previous versions and wish to provide proof of them so that they can be properly archived here, follow these steps:
  • Create a topic in the Post Mortem forum of the following format: "[MORTEM DUMP] {member name}, {version #}" (e.g., [MORTEM DUMP] Game Hunter, 0.9.9.3)
  • Place your mortems in this thread. Each mortem must be in a separate post. Include mortem tags precluding each mortem if you wish.
  • Wait until your mortems are verified.
Once verification has been taken care of, all mortems will be linked here with your name in the appropriate badge list.

Before 0.9.9.7, Challenge Champions were determined via the following criteria:
  • Most important is how far you got: reaching the 20th floor is better than reaching the 10th. Consequently, victories are always more qualified than defeats.
  • Next is the difficulty: the harder the game, the more your mortem is considered the best. Often there will be cases of runner-ups that were playing on a harder difficulty than the champion's.
    • The corollary to this rule is that Nightmare! wins are counted separately from ITYTD-UV ones. Thus there is a best of N! and a best of everything else.
  • HOW you win is comes next: full wins are more highly-rated than standard, and standard more highly-rated than partial.
  • If there is a tie at this point, medals and badges that require victory in addition to other conditions (e.g., Speedrunner series) will be used to determine the best mortem. Badges that do not require victory are not counted (as there is no way to assume their status in the event that the player has already achieved them before).
  • If the weights of the mortems' badges and medals are too close, score will be used to determine the best mortem. (This is effectively a measure of most kills.)
  • If the scores are ALSO too close, we will have someone personally determine the best mortem (likely me or Kornel, possibly a group vote). Hopefully it never has to come to that.

Since the OP of this thread was missing quite a few Diamond and Angelic badges (most egregiously missing all of Icy's badges), and there being no sight of Game Hunter returning any time soon, I decided to update this thread for all remaining unaccounted Diamond/Angelic mortems I could find from 0.9.9.7 that weren't listed before (as well as fixed a few errors, like Tormuse's and Sylph's Marksman Diamond runs being erroneously listed under Marksman Angelic). I contemplated reformatting it to be organized like I did the for the 0.9.9.8/0.9.9.9 Badge Hunters thread, but aside from all the work that would take, I thought I would be stepping on Game Hunter's toes too much and so left the organization as is. I also contemplated removing 2DeviationsOut's mortems since it has long been believed now that he blatantly cheated or outright fabricated his mortems, but for history sake, and so everyone can easily see for themselves how bullshit his supposed runs were without having to dig through the Post Mortem archives to find them, I left them up with an asterisk attached to his name.
