	I've never gotten to this point with Raiden.  Can you
	body-launch Shang Tsung?  When he's not imitating other
	characters-- what does this look like?

	yes!  the hopping stuff gets asked a lot.  I'd list characters
	who can hop-punch, as well.

	hop punch combos aren't detailed in the current moves-list.
	There are several well-known ones (esp. against Kano)

	another type of question that gets asked a *LOT*
	<< How do I beat X with Y? >>  Is there any way we can
	compile a list of answers to this?

I have a copy of something a couple of people put together...  It contained these
two .sigs:

If you can't contact either of the above, I can repost the entire doc as I have

Yes, it is possible.  It isn't anything special, looks like someone getting
slammed into the wall (like against the normal characters.)

Well, what you've got there is a repost of the moves list that I made a
while ago; I have since beaten Reptile...

I am also the one starting the FAQ, which is a different concept, sort of
like how alt.games.sf2 has a FAQ and a moves list, although in that case
both are compiled by the same person...

I have already gotten a response or two about things to include in the FAQ,
and if anyone else has any ideas, either post them here or mail them to me,
OK?
