Revision as of 00:00, 23 October 2022
To do
- Eventual mention of the broadcast's recovery, as it was considered lost for a while. Find the source for this.
- S&K was launched and marketed less like a game and more like a Hollywood motion picture. Pamela Kelly came up with the idea/organized Rock the Rock. Possibly more information here. (But she's not in the credits?)
- "MTV was only involved with the Alcatraz side of the tournament." (Where did I hear this?)
- I have a gut feeling segments of this may have been produced by the same company which did that one video with Al Nilsen's face floating and stretching around the screen as he just sits there and quietly talks. Welcome to the Next Living Room?
- You may already know this, but this event was covered in an issue of Sega Visions.[1]

Tournament results
- Is there a way to get text to wrap around this prettytable, like an inline image thumb? If so, let's incorporate it before the "finale" paragraph in Tournament.
