All replays would also have to be run through your own copy of DoomRL or through someone else you trust. It basically boils down to whether you want to run a whole Compet-N for the DoomRL or not.

Even then you'd have to create a seperate game mode in which you can't save or else people could savescum. :-/

Perhaps the web scoreboard would only apply to N!? Accomplishments there would certainly be deserving of such a scoreboard, and there wouldn't need to be a seperate game mode.
Anticheese:
Not really..Nightmare mode is intended to be incredibly hard and does not give everyone else (I'm an Ultra Violence man myself) the chance to have bragging rights..Besides, using a trainer would ruin it.
The nightmare scoreboard that is.
BDR:
>_> I wasn't speaking about the trainer... figured that was an obvious no-no. I was merely addressing the singular point Zeb made about needing a way to prevent saving; make it N! only at first and bam, you have a solution.
Of course, you're right that it doesn't allow for UV players or otherwise to get any glory. But for that, you *would* need a seperate no-save mode.
Firstblood:
Couldn't we have a "Hardcore" mode for any difficulty thats not Nightmare, that doesn't allow you to save, or a "Limited" mode that allows only one or two saves in total? maybe as command parameter if not as an option.
Could maybe throw in 10% extra ammo and xp as an incentive to get more people used to not save-scumming if they have time for a full game session as well. I never save-scum which is where the 2nd idea has come from.. also means that I die many times on AoB[UV] trying to kill as much as possible without dying, instead of evade until I get to the Chainsaw, but I actually find that fun because its (C)hallenging.
I can't wait until I've unlocked N!
