Sonic HeadQuarters
Sonic HQ Now Open! -
The 'Zone is proud to announce the grand reopening of Sonic HeadQuarters on the 'Zone! Sonic HQ is quite possible the web's most complete Sonic fan site. This page was originally on GeoCities, but with the help of the 'Zone, the page moves to our "pop-up
banner" free server. We hope with the resources available on the 'Zone that the page will continue to grow, and we wish Zifei and the rest of the Sonic HQ staff the best of luck! I would personal like to thank Emula
tion World for providing the server and web space that makes all of this possible!

Staff Firings
Dump the Duuk -
Duuk-Tsarith first signed-on to help the 'Zone in late August after the word went out that we needed people. He didn't take on any positions, and thus was unassigned any task until he took on the SNES position in Oct. For the month that he controlled th
at section, we should a great amount of effort and promise for the SNES page. Then he mysteriously stopped working on the page. When asked, he said it was in protest because he listed function on the Staff page was "unassigned," and that it was not corre
cted after emailing and ICQing messages to Sephiroth and myself to correct this error.
Well, to be honest with you, Duuk, you did NOT email or ICQ requests for that to be changed to me or Sephiroth. I merely forgot to make the change to the staff page when you went from "unassigned' to "SNES Maintainer."
The change was made to the staff page and he is STILL not doing a thing. I don't know if this was a poor excuse to leave the 'Zone team or what. I hate to do this to someone that showed so much promise, but if you want out, you got it. Hasta la vista
, Duuk!!
Red - MIA.

Staff Resignings
Mimeslayer - Mimieslayer has resigned after realizing that adding a third
webpage to the existing two that he manages was going to be too much.
Gotlieb - Gotlieb didn't say much, except that he is not going to be able to
run the cheat page.
A little Quiet Around Here
Where's the New? - I promissed a reconstruct of the 'Zone during XMAS break, and it is going nicely! We hope to have
all our new goodies and surprises online by the end of new week. I'm not going to say anything just yet, but I will say that you will love it and
find it VERY useful!
Secrets of Sonic
Update! - The secrets of Sonic the Hedgehog page has been updated. And they now have a messageboard!!! Check it out!
TG16 Roms
Roms for you... - Psycotron just told me
that the TG16 roms are online and
downloadable again.
'Net Based Radio Show Canceled
Hired Radio Personality Fired - After speaking with the person who was suppost to do the 'Net based radio show in person, I realized that the person I was hiring has their mind in the gutter. I would be foolish to allow someon
e to run an emulation-based radio show who had absolutly no heart in covering emulation based topics. The person in question would rather run the show like a cheap, immoral, music show, then a free format emulation based radio show.
This proposed format is completely out of the question, considering that this type of show would clash with the 'Zone's content. So, say good-bye to our proposed Real Audio 'Net show. :-(
Under reconstruction
Its that time again! - We will be restructing the 'Zone over the next few weeks. The purpose of this restructuring is to make the 'Zone a more valuable resource to the Emulation Community, and to
help distinquish us from all the "copy cat" emu sites that are poping up.
Geechyguy!
Get well soon! - As you might of heard alredy, Geechyguy got hit by a drunk driver and was sent to a hospital a week or so ago. Last I heard was that he is in serious condition. The 'Zone would like to wish Geechyguy a speedy
recovery and we hope he sues the fuck out that asshole how got him into that position. Especially if your given the fact that something like a drunk driver could of been prevented.
Staff Update
Rand - The 'Zone would like to welcome Rand to the staff. Rand will be incharge of creating some CGI scripts to
help automate the "What's New" and "WEMU" sections of the site.
He's back? - An former staff memeber of the 'Zone might be returning. I won't say who it is yet, but I'll
anncouce who it is if he decides he's really up to the task or not.
MimeSlayer to Join the 'Zone - The webmaster of MimeSlayer's Emulation (MSE), MimeSlayer, might be joining the 'Zone. Specifics have yet to be ironed out, but expect an update shortly.
Nanak to Join the 'Zone - Nanak has agreed to start an IRC channel and page for the 'Zone. Again, specifics are still being ironed out. Expect more info shortly.
