Thats right folks, everyone converge on Statesboro, GA because Georgia has become the first State to enter the Mega Drive Championships (http://www.megadrivechamps.org/index.html)!

Here is the break down.

#1: You don't have to be from Georgia to compete, you can be from anywhere in the world. Although if you are the Georgia Champion you will represent the State of Georgia in any International Mega Drive Championship competition held for that year.

#2: It is a team based competition. You can have teams that consist of 1 to 3 members, and your team decides who competes in each invidividual game.

#3: Games will be played on Model 1, Model 2, and CDX hardware, using the original 6-button controller.

#4: The event will be held at Gamesboro, in Statesboro, GA.

#5: I'm working on getting special hotel rates for contestants from out of state.

#6: Competition lasts from noon and will end at 9 PM on October 24th.

#7: Entry fee is $10 per contestant, and $8.00 if purchased in advance from Gamesboro's online store (http://www.gsubooks.com/product_info.php?cPath=107&products_id=7095).

#8: The winning team will receive a GEN Mobile system AND a GEN Core for each member of that team thanks to sponsers Gamesboro and Hyperkin.

#9: This is more than a simple tournament, this is the Genesis Cup! Zero Tolerance, Zero Wing, Sonic 3, Virtua Racing, Contra Hard Corps, and Street Fighter II Special Championship Edition are the games that will be the basis for the competition. Each game has a different rule set and these rules will be posted at gamesboro.net (http://www.gamesboro.net)

#10: This competition will be recorded for submission to Mega Drive Championships.

If you have any questions about the competition please contact me at owner@gamesboro.net. I want this to be the biggest event in Gamesboro history!

Rules for each Georgia Genesis Cup game.

Zero Tolerance - 1 on 1

The first person to reach 10 enemy kills is the winner. Remember, you can shoot each other, so hindering the other player is highly encouraged.

Zero Wing - score based - 3 minutes or game over

This is a tough game, and considering it never came out in the US it adds an extra element of toughness. Be prepared for this one!

Virtua Racing - team relay - Intermediate difficulty

This is a full team event. Single man "teams" play by themselves, 2 or 3 man teams swap out a fresh person every lap.

Contra Hard Corps - score based - 3 minutes or game over

Don't forget that getting as far as possible doesn't mean you will have a higher score!

Sonic 3 - 1 on 1 - Multiplayer mode - All stages

Items on, don't fault!

Street Fighter II: Special Championship Edition - 1 on 1 - Double Elimination ladder

You can switch out a team mate at any time during the ladder, in between matches.

TIE BREAKER:

Eternal Champions - 1 on 1
Just like every year, if we have a tie of any kind, it is handled in a 2 out of 3 round match.

No cheats, no game exploits. You can talk trash, but don't come in physical contact with competitors or view of the screen(s).
