About the United Cup 2008

Any player, beginners, amateurs, semi pro or pros alike can participate in the 2008 United Cup. Players are allowed to participate in the tournament with only one (1) character (the highest level character per account) and can participate in this tournament up to 1,000 times.

The best score submitted will be the player's final score.

In the tournament, players will be asked whether they are from United States or the European Union and then will be matched against their own region, or players have the option to choose to represent either the United States or the European Union if they have a preference.

Winners will be awarded prizes including the Team captain's name being entered into the Shot Online Hall of Fame. In addition, each team member will receive their choice of 2008 United Cup Clothing set.

"What better way to kick off the fall season than with a good old-fashioned USA vs. Europe competition," said David Chang, Executive Vice President of Marketing and Business Development for Gamescampus.com. "We only recently unveiled the Pearl Green Island course so it will be great to see which players have perfected their
game and can come away the winners."
