> Is is true that you can't hit block and still get to Reptile? ...

	If you hit block at all, you gotta lose that round.  My friend hit 
block on the bridge level, and I saw something flew by the moon and told him
that Reptile was coming out so he gave me the controls.  Since it was the 
first round, I gave it to the computer and hoped that it worked.  By winning
the two following rounds without blocking and getting double flawless and
fatality, I was almost giving up on seeing Reptile, but he showed up anyway!
So I guess when he said "Blocking Will Not Help You" it only applies to the
rounds that you have to win.

> Also, is there any truth to the rumor that you can fight as Reptile?

	I've heard that too.  What I heard was that, if you can perform the
feat of beating Reptile without blocking and still get double flawless and 
fatality, you will possess his powers - in other words, Sub-Zero's freezeball
and Scorpion's harpoon.  Don't know if you gain his speed too, that would
REALLY help.  :)  So basically if you play Raiden, and got Reptile's power,
you will be able to throw an electric blot that zaps and freezes the foe in
the same time.  Then you can either charge or harpoon him in good time... I've
been trying real hard but Reptile is much too fast.  I think I need to get good
at Sonya or Liu Kang for this one (I usually use Johnny Cage to fight Reptile).
I am already beginning to see a pattern in Reptile's strategy...

	Well, sorry to burst your bubble pal, but I got a double
flawless fatality against the reptile without touching block (habit
you know).  I was scorpion and pretty much jump kicked him to death,
teleporting when he got too close.  

BTW, has anyone gotten the reptile without using one of two ninjas?
I've only done it with them; I got a double flawless fatality with
kano, and cage without touching block  WITH moon appearances and no
reptile :<

Well, you are doing better than I am!  I haven't even SEEN him yet!!!!  

BTW:  Is reptile ONLY on v.3.0?  Or on ALL MK machines?  The one we have on 
campus is a v.2.0.

Thanks!!!

Yep... I was playing one of two side by side MK machines going for
reptile.  The guy next to me was also trying for the reptile.  I was
on the V2.0 machine he was on the V3.0.  Unfortunately I was the one
who got the double flawless fatality with moon appearances, and no
block button.  BUT NO, no reptile... waaaa.  I've gotten him on the
V3.0 machine a coupla times.  Needless to say i was unhappy :<

Can someone tell me EXACTLY how to try to see him?  I've heard slight 
variations of the base, no block/double flawless/without losing previous 
matches/at the pit...  But what makes it hard for me, is Liu Kang is my WORST
character to fight against.  Any good hints to use against him?
