After yesterday (which you didn't see), now this. I am so not in the mood for this sort of nonsense. Technically we play a map called 007 also, but I'm not entertaining it and so we only really play LETISTE, a map set around a small airport that has all the makings of a good map, but ruins it by likely being tested with cheats by the designer. This is strange, because otherwise it shows considerable competency and attention to detail, and it wouldn't even be a very challenging level with actual items placed in it.

Game audio isn't working in the recording for some reason. This is baffling, because you should just hear whatever I hear. Evidently when I was playing with the capture card to try and get better quality out of it, I broke something... it still makes no sense, as it just records the second Line-Out of the same sound card my headphones are plugged into.

I've been unable to find any reason BRAINS2 would break as it did, so assume it just doesn't like my PC. That one, then, will be attempted again later.

If nothing good shows up in the list tomorrow, then I'm not going to bother and will wait until something does, or hand pick a level regardless of release date if too long a time passes.

As a general rule, maps won't be shown if they have:
- Death start; beginning a map with no weapons or ammo, but throwing a ton of enemies at me. It's not fun and I'm not interested. Exceptions could be made if it was a particular gimmick map, say some kind of challenge, but it'd have to do something special to win me over.
- Useless loops; if you make me loop your map for no reason and change nothing on that loop, I stop playing.
- Softlocks; short of an obscure error, I won't entertain a level that softlocks me in a way even basic testing should have caught.
- Missing items; from here on, if I find your map was tested with cheats enabled, causing you to forget to place items, I might forget to record myself playing it.
- You stroke your own knob too much in the readme; I came here to play Duke, not to pull you off. I've only been doing this four days and I'm already sick of your overbloated ego. There's barely enough room for mine as it is.
- Your name is Pascal; your levels suck.

There may be 28 years of levels to play, but a lot of 'em ain't worth playing and deserve to rot in the forgotten garbage bag of history, preferably in a urine soaked alley littered with cigarette ends and diseased needles.
