    Emags and RT's banned in a tourny... not good news

    I came across this today. Not what I would call good publicity. Anyone care to take up the fight.



    It's only a local tournament, but it's this sort of thing that gets rumors started.

    It could also be seen as a compliment. Aparently retro mags are just too fast!

      Yeah it is quite crapy that they are banning e-mags and rt's. It's stupid. Quite stupid. Thank god I don't own one.

          Wasn't there an initial push to ban RTs from tournaments when they first came out? How much of this is bleed-over from the Tippman RTs?

          To tell you the truth, it gives me a little pause to think that I am about to dump a lot of money into an Extreme (if they ever decide to make them available :)) that might be banned. A little pause, not much of a pause.

                that is so *EDIT* Don't need that here, don't do it again. Army

                ok the emag has less modes of fire than any angel and as for the trigger bounce thats bull . its just another case of marker prejudice.

                  Best thing to do here is to boycot these guys tourneys and make sure they know why! Simple. One or two less teams can make or break a local tourney.

                      ok, first off that is retarted. Now, angels have some bounce back from the micro switch correct? (minus the opti trigger)

                      The rt used to be the lead marker for tournies, before the angel appeared.

                      This guy is a fool.

                          Don't E-Mags shoot 40% slower in Canada because of the exchange rate? :)

                            Actually it's 40% faster.

                            You get more bang for your buck up here.
