I. Introduction

I'll admit I haven't played this game for quite a while, and don't really even
remember how to play it any more. I had made this guide quite a while ago but I
think this guide will still help whoever is playing it. I've really covered
every aspect of the game in this guide so there isn't too much more to add, and
this will probably be the last update for this guide. There is still the
possibility of another update, but at this point it is very unlikely. If you're
still playing the game, then this guide should answer pretty much all of your
questions, but if you still have any questions about the game after reading
this guide you can e-mail me with your question and I'll be happy to answer it.
If you still happen to play this game and have passwords for the different
teams in the tournament on this game, you can send them to me to have them
included in this guide, and of course you will receive full credit for them.

If you wish to use this guide on your web site, then be sure to read the
bottom section titled "Copyright Information" for information about what to do
as well as what not to do. If you use this guide on your site, please be sure
to update it within a reasonable amount of time so that the most recent
version of this guide is on your site, as it is your responsibility, not mine,
to keep it updated. The most recent version of this guide will always be found
at GameFAQs.

To see all of the guides I've written, go to my GameFAQs contributor page at
