n the spirit of the DWIronman League, the Quake Ironman League has participants play a provided map, episode or mod blind to see who can survive! Rules are at the bottom of the post.
This month you all will be dying to...
Red Hatred, a level by Skacky created for Retrojam4. With a lust for a player's blood, this map has you taking on several seemingly impossible threats while constantly high on quad-juice. Several gotcha moments, several dollops of insanity, just the type of thing an Ironman needs for breakfast!
Difficulty: Hard (Skill 2)
File(s): https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/retrojam4.html Mod: Vanilla Quake
Note: This map requires an engine port with increased limits.
Commands: The command "game retrojam4; skill 2" will switch you to the retrojam4 map directory and select the Hard skill, and "record qil2_playername retrojam4_skacky" will begin your attempt.

Aw, I have played this one, shortly after it came out, so I'll have to sit it out. Should be a fun map to revisit, though, and watch other peoples' demos.
