    How many people find that machines in there area are done a lot by other people? I don't have that problem i just wondered if other people did.

    I think my area is a goldmine i just need to learn how to dig deeper. I think a pro player could make a mint near me (lots of chavs though in the clubs hanging about though iv'e never had any trouble).

    And also, do you think these video screen fruit machine thingys will take off? I had one nearby but it's dissapeared now and been replaced by a normal machine. Do they play the same sort of way?

    Moderate amount of competition in my area.

    Maybe five other players who regularly play Teesside that are well clued up (2 of which are from Newcastle, 1 from Sunderland and 1 from Sedgefield area), and a handful of local social / average players.

    To be honest the average players, who generally play to pay for drink and for entertainment are more of a hinderance that the travelling clued up /disciplined players.

    Those in the know tend to stick to routines, to a ceratin degree we are aware of each other activities and as such dont tend to cause each other any problems.

    The average players with limited knowledge like to leave things dead often, usually losing money in the process.

    Eg.

    Clued up player will leave dead Dosh N Pecks.
    Average player will force for JP to ensure it is well and truly dead for the next player.

    Since the arrival of AFU and clones there is more about than there has been for a long time and as a result im currently having no problems reaching weekly targets.

    Alot of local players are either reluctant to travel or cant travel and as such suburbia is a wonderful place!

    No confidence in Video AWPs as of yet. I too have seen one recently removed and replaced by an normal AWP in this area.

    Video AWP's WILL take off.

    This is because the manufacturers feel this is the future, so will FORCE us to play them rather than traditional reel based AWP's by simply making them the only option.

    No matter how people feel about them now, if there arent any AWP's only Video AWP's most of us will still play them.

    Isle of man I'd imagine not a lot of ppl, but then again m/c's not played particularly heavily either.

    At Uni, St Albans / Hatfield, so I'd imagine lots of players as near london.

    As stated above prob. mix of pro's and the players with some knowledge who just force out JP and leave em all dead. Or the fucking barstaff / bouncers, they always playing them.

    No video ones here, were loads on IOM
