What were you doing watching TV when you should have been in flying to begin with?!

A better thing might be to ask how many here were drawn to the game because of the commercials?

Be interesting to see some numbers on this

Well, I started before the commercials, but a co-worker did ask me about the game a few weeks back because of the commercial.  He knew I played, but where he used to call it "that game", he now knows it by name. :)

Once I saw the commercial I was like wow, it looks cool, I've been wanting to play a flying game.

Then I came on again and I made sure to remember the website.  A google search later I downloaded the game. Played 2 weeks and then went to H2H for about 10 months.  After talking to the guys in the H2H that also played in the MA, and my memory of the MA in the 2 week trial, I finally convinced myself to pay for it .  Artlaw was the first to tell me how to use mic in h2h and he arranged these fun fights in H2H and that also encouraged me to see other great players from the MA.
Time's fun when you're having flies.
