                          Minute Marathon and contributions to much else.

Description             : A little over three years ago I finished my first
                          Doom map ever and one of the first contributions I
                          made to Doom's modding community as a ridiculous 13
                          year old child. I never released it at that time,
                          but as something of a "celebration" of the time
                          since on my 17th birthday as a slightly less
                          ridiculous slightly less child, I figured I'd dump
                          you all my old trash in Hot Old Garbage! Yeah, no
                          deep opening paragraph here, just letting out all
                          of my unreleased Nuts clones, failed community
                          project contributions and failed megawad attempts,
                          the vast majority of which were made in 2021 with a
                          handful of 2022 remnants. Who exactly, if anyone
                          this appeals to? I don't know. I do know though
                          that I enjoy being rather transparent and open as a
                          mapper, so hopefully whatever this trash mound is
                          will spark joy in some future historian or anyone
                          like me who just sees fun in looking through
                          mappers' old junk. If this wad appeals to you
                          then... Thanks. Seriously. 
                          
                          HOWEVER: If you're hunting for a fresh, good
                          experience right now, then you may be glad to know
                          that a light resides at the end of the tunnel. As a
                          tasty cherry on top of this shit flavoured cake, I
                          present you a thorough remake of the first map I
                          ever made, created over three years after that, as
                          an ego boosting demonstration to myself, for the
                          interest of any normal people wanting to play an
                          actually good map, and for the interest of any
                          extremely cool freaks out there who enjoy seeing
                          this style evolution in other mappers. I'm not
                          going to say to enjoy this wad, because I actually
                          hope you really don't, but please enjoy MAP23!
