Misc. Author Info       : The Abyssal Speedmapping Sessions were once held by
                          Obsidian, now hosted by TMD and are open for pretty
                          much anyone to participate in. PM TheMionicDonut on
                          Doomworld, or TMD on irc.oftc.net or the Abyss if
                          you're interested.

Description             : 20 maps made during the eighteenth Abyssal
                          Speedmapping Session in the space of two hours,
                          with 15 minutes for music and texture selection and
                          15 minutes for bugfixing. Each mapper had 3 themes
                          to choose from, this time borrowed from the Mayhem
                          series:
