- The change done to 456982 hid most of the references. Some are duplicates and should probably be hidden, but some weren't and should be re-added. It would also be nice to add a proper comment/reasoning to the changes, rather than using the one supplied by the Wiki. (Hadess (talk) 03:27, 2 October 2018 (CDT))
- What is seen in Mega Force #5 and #6 are not advertisements (as noted in the change's comment). Those are magazine articles, which are covered in separate pages and are already listed in there. --AllisonKidd (talk) 12:23, 2 October 2018 (CDT)

Let's get this serious...
I've been studying this carefully these last days... and I believe we've been tricked by one of those famous "mistranlation/misanderstanding" errors comited by the press of the time... this British article as you guys know is from the final which was held in the UK... as claimed there, after the tournament, the contestants went to assist a Michael Jackson Concert and were driven to the concert on Michael Jackson's limousine... then they spend their nigth as "VIPs" in an hotel and the following day they went to Spain to enjoy a weekend at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona... this is confirmed by Ricardo Fojo from Marinha Grande, the Portuguese winner in 1992 (there was only one category... no junior or senior categories) in this interview after the European Championship on Clube Sega's Magazine... French Mega Force says in this ad that the French winner would dispute the European Title in Barcelona... I suspect that the French event is related to this European Championship (and that it was probably called Sega Euro Challenge 92 and the following was called Sega European Challenge 93 (the French call it this way... exactly like Carlos Nunes, Portuguese Senior finalist in 1993 ...)... ---Asagoth
