The Grand Master title was not meant to be done in Nightmare difficulty, but in Ultra-Violence with -fast setting, se there is a small mistake in the article. Marek

From Hank Leukart's Post-Release v6.666 Doom/Doom II FAQ - STANDARD revision Last Updated: DOOMSDAY, 1994 December 10, 1994 EST: Anniversary Edition Written by: Hank Leukart (ap641@cleveland.freenet.edu) (15-15): The DOOM Honorific Titles ================================== DESCRIPTION: When you think your DOOM skills are solid and that no monster in hell can be a match for your shotgun, you have two basic ways of getting street credit. One is to win lots of DeathMatches against well-known players, and the other is to get one or more "DOOM Honorific Titles". The DHT is a rating system that awards top players with standardized and universally recognized titles. If you feel proud and/or silly enough, you can include the relevant letters after your name in your .sig and impress your fellow DOOM players. There are four titles to be conquered: DOOM Master (DM):              can complete any level on Ultra-Violence. DOOM Grand Master (DGM):       can complete any level on Nightmare. DOOM Tyson (DT):               can complete any level on Ultra-Violence using nothing more than fist and pistol. DOOM Grand Ass Kicker (DGAK):  has the combined skills of a Master, a                                      Tyson and a Grand Master. The titles are awarded by passing an examination. As with most examinations, this will only be a random sampling of your capacity. You won't be required to complete all 27 episodes to prove that you can do it. You will be your own judge for the results. You will receive the text of the examination, which tells you what to do to be awarded the title you think you deserve; from then on you just have to produce the corresponding LMPs and upload them to a specific public place in a specific format to be able to call yourself a DM, DT, DGM or DGAK. There is no time limit. The LMPs must be produced especially for the examination -- you can't just send in your old ones. This is because there is an authentication mechanism which prevents people from recycling other people's LMPs. FoxMulder2014 (talk) 01:50, October 3, 2015 (UTC)
