I was just thinking and it came to mind that I've noticed something over time. I've been playing out here in Yuam now for the last 4 1/2 years (this time around). Anyway when I first got out here there was exactly 1 Angel on the field, mine (99 Dark LED). Slowly over time the number of them has steadily increased until now there are several (read 10 or so) with more and more people talking about how much they want one. Interesting part of the whole thing is that earlier all I heard was how inaccurate Angels were and how they were gas hogs and such. Now everyone is singing their praises. Another funny thing is that people who bought Timmys and E-Blades are now talking about how they wish they'd gotten one of our beloved Angels.
Just wanted to share that and see if anyone else has noticed anything similar.

down here about 50% of the guns used are angels, and about 30% of the rest want angels,
no joke
then again, we have about 20 avid players with a couple that come and go :)

Here in Ohio we recently went to a tourney at Red Dragon(dont ever go there, refs are biased, and make you ref during your own tourney), because we were all shooting Angels we were called rich kids, not to our face but behind our backs. This pissed me off, I worked my butt off for everyone of my guns. People bad mouth Angels all the time, but you know the only reason is that they themselves cannot afford one. I mean beside the people on our team there are maybe like 15 people around here with Angels.

yah, lol i cant stand these damn matrix users anymore...but yah here in Ohio we are having a steady increase in Angels....at least in CINCI...
Angels are all over in Toronto.
When I go to PPP's field, every single gun is an angel.
But that is also a Lockdown practice.

I've been saying that forever. Texas is very Pro-Intimidator...it has to do with the Storm influence

:dunno:
can't speak for that area....I do however know that as soon as Storm started shooting the Intimidator everyone in TX wanted one, whether it was a custom, classic, GZ etc....and then when the Storm version came out holy cow it was even worse
