1. Introduction
-------------------------------------------------
Ok, this is my first FAQ, so excuse any little quirks
or annoyances here and there. As it is with most FAQs,
 I probably won't find everything on my own. So, if 
you have a piece of juicy information THAT HAS TO 
DO WITH THIS FAQ, feel to send your submissions to OTACON120@webtv.net. Also, if 
you 
have any questions, also send those in, as I'm 
planning on adding an FAQ section to this... umm...
FAQ... for questions asked by you, if I get any questions,
and if you find any specials or combos that do not
work, be sure to report them to the e-mail address
above, and if you find any specials or combos that
_DO_ work that have been reported not to work, be
sure to report those too. **MAKE SURE THAT WHEN YOU
SUBMIT SOMETHING, TELL WHAT NAME YOU WOULD LIKE TO 
BE REFERED TO AS (REAL NAME OR AN ALIAS) AND TELL
WHETHER YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS TO BE
SHOWN OR WITHHELD. If you do not tell either of
the above mentioned, you will be reffered to as
either the first part of your e-mail address,or
whatever name is shown after your e-mail address,
and if you do not tell to withhold your e-mail or
not, your e-mail will be shown until told to withhold
it.** ~~ALSO, IF YOU ARE ONLINE AND CANNOT WAIT TO GET HELP, AND HAVE MSN 
INSTANT MESSENGER, USE MY E-MAIL ADDRESS ABOVE GET AHOLD OF ME WHEN I'M ONLINE~~ 
Well, now the boring part is over. On to the FAQ!
(Or at least a little closer to it. ^_^ )
-------------------------------------------------
2. Updates
-------------------------------------------------
12/7/00 - v 1.0 -- The first version of the FAQ. Just
the basics, but more coming soon.

12/10/00 - v 1.5 -- Got some specials for Hilary Clinton, sent in by Robert 
Dell-Ross (gt7451a@prism.gatech.edu), other than that, not a whole lot else 
happenin'.

12/14/00 - v 2.0 -- Today is my birthday, so I'm updating to celebrate! >=) I've 
been getting plenty of e-mail concerning 
how to unlock Rumbleman, so I have 
now included quick but specific ways to 
unlock each character.

12/29/00 - v 2.5 -- Well, I have been getting
flooded with e-mails, and they all
look about the same, a litle like this:
"I tried to get Rumbleman using your strategy
FAQ, but it didn't work, I have all the extra
characters, so I have beaten the game 10 times,
then I switched to hard mode and beat it but
still nothing happened. What's the problem?", So
at the moment, this is the exact number of
e-mails I have recieved like the one above: 77
current e-mails. If I ever update this more, I
will show the current amount of e-mails like that
one above, just for your enjoyment >=) Anyway, I
restarted my game, and I think I figured out the
problem. Check out the Rumbleman section.

12/31/00 - v 3.0 -- Happy New Year! It's
currently 10:06 Central Time over here where I'm
at, and I'm bored, but I've got an update! I've
added a "Quick Queries" section, where I will
show questions that have been e-mailed to me
(about the secret characters in some way), and I
have answered them. This is there so it might
help people who might have the same questions. It is now under heading # 6. 
where the Credit was. _"Can't Get Rumbleman" E-mails to date_: 92 

1/4/01 - v 3.5 -- Not a lot, but there is now
another site that has this FAQ posted, so I am
making sure that they don't get reported by
adding them to the Legal Info at the bottom... I
have also changed "Quick Queries" to "E-mail
Info" because I am now doing more than answering
questions... better explanation at the actual
"E-mail Info" section. BTW, this new section has
a code that may help a lot of you saying "[Insert
Character] and [Insert Character] aren't showing
up! Help!!!1!1!! PleeZz!1" (I actually got an
e-mail like that. =-) _"Can't Get Rumbleman"
E-mails to date_: 98

1/28/01 - v 4.0 -- Well, got a few more E-mails,
a new move for Bill Clinton (Thanks to
Lorde1399@aol.com). Aslo, gave info on how to
contact me live online. _"Can't Get Rumbleman" E-mails to date_: 179 (>.<)
-------------------------------------------------
3. Key
-------------------------------------------------
Here is the key for the different button commands:
U = Up
D = Down
F = Forward
B = Back
LH = Left High
LL = Left Low
RH = Right High
RL = Right Low

Anything with a + in between them means that those
are pressed simultaneously (at the same time)
-------------------------------------------------
4. How To Get Secret Characters
-------------------------------------------------
Well, plain and simple. Just beat all 12 boxers, like
normal. Every time you do, a secret character will be
unlocked. The secret characters will be listed in the
order that they are unlocked. *SIDE NOTE* Asterisks
(*) simply separate moves from each other. Nothing
more.

6. E-mail Info
-------------------------------------------------
Here is where I answer questions about the secret
characters that have been sent to me through
e-mail ( OTACON120@webtv.net), or just helpful tidbits of info that help toward 
getting secret characters. Questions along
the lines of "I beat Arcade 12 times but [Insert
Character] and [Insert Character] still haven't
shown up? What's wrong?" will still be accepted,
but will not show up here. If you have a question, sned it to me, it may show up 
here. =-)

Question: 
From: SLiMSHaDY2o7@aol.com 
Date: Sat, Dec 30, 2000, 10:55am (CST+1) 
To: OTACON120@webtv.net
Subject: R2R : Round 2 Question 
Hey I got a question for ya, How do you save the
secret characters after you 
get them....if you could tell me that would be
cool. 
   
                                 Later man 

Answer:
Well, after you have unlocked the secret characters you want to save, go to 
Championship Mode and save. Then whenever you want to load your secret 
characters, go into Championship Mode and load the file you saved. Every secret 
character you had saved onto that file should automatically show up.

Subject: Ready to Rumble 2 Character trick 

Hi, I don't know if you've heard about this, but
there is a code to unlock all of the characters,
including their holiday outfits.  At the title
screen, press left, left, right, R2, left, right,
right, R1, R1, R2 
This would be the ultimate addition to your FAQ. 
Thanks for your time.

Response:

anyone finds this trick to be false, or not working, let me know. =-)

I beat Arcade mode once before I knew about
unlocking secret players. I have Michael Jackson
and afterwards, but is there any way to get Freak

responses sying it doesn't work...so I'm really not sure. Sorry about your 
inconvenience. Can anyone answer this?
