This site would create the basis for all DOOM demo-sites that would follow. This site was, however, quickly obsoleted by the DOOM Honorific Titles, launched in May 1994 by Frank Stajano, which introduced the first serious competition between players. This particular feature was first picked up by Christina 'Strunoph' Norman in January 1994 when she launched the LMP Hall of Fame website. Among some of its major features, like its then-exceptional graphics, LAN and Internet-based multiplayer support, and user modification possibilities, it also gave the players the ability to record demo files of their playthrough. The earliest documented speedruns were performed in the 1993 first-person shooter Doom. ( January 2021) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)
