Bay Area MKX Scene?

QED

Noob
Monday or Tuesday works for me. Whichever is easiest for you guys. Maybe Tuesday so we have a day of chilling/lab time between Brewcade and the session? I commute from Livermore for work, so I can probably be there like after 6.

I'll probably be at Brewcade as well. I go to a card shop on Sundays so should be hopping over after that's done. Also going to Foundry for Street Fighter tonight, so if you ever hear back from ShowdownGG let me know.

To some those who have asked about Folsom Street Foundry I've approached them twice about having MKX there. The first time I asked back in January they said they'd like to have it there but didn't have any plans at the moment. I asked if I could bring a setup when the game is released but they asked me to check back another time. Then in March I sent them an email and I was quoted for renting the facility for $5,000 or something to run tournaments, which confused me because I stated we were just fans who wanted to run a grassroots tourney.

Then I approached Brewcade and those arrangements turned out fantastically. The management there are terrific and It's awesome they opened their doors to us. I'm very thankful for that.

Folsom is a pretty good place and the staff over there are pretty cool, but they stuck me as wanting to host communities that are already established and didn't seem interested in hosting un-established scenes. As I understand they have space issues being as popular as they are and that may have had so matching to do with it. Those are my impressions, and it is what it is.

So let's establish our scene at Brewcade and get some games going! :)

That's cool. I was hoping for foundry only because they allow under 21 players and brewcade doesn't. I'm glad you guys get to have a supported scene however.

Foundry is still over 21 since they can't risk their liquor license. The only under 21s that are allowed in are top players according to rankings for Smash really.

And shoutouts if you read this to the people playing casuals at the Foundry. I was the dude playing mainly Kitana and Takeda.

@Folux182 @QED @Totshy Let's shoot for Tuesday then. Funny that's the one Tuesday I work, but it's morning so I'll be off anywhere between 2 and 4. I work in Walnut Creek so I can hit bart to SF right after work.
Okay cool. This is great. My roommate won't be able to make it this week because he's traveling for work but Tuesday should work great. And if anyone else is seeing this and would like to come to casuals this Tuesday in SF let me know!

Also if anyone wants to head into the city early, I live fairly close to the venue and would be willing to have people come over beforehand to warm up. I would also appreciate some help moving both of my setups to the venue. If anyone is down to head over early let me know.

Hey guys! Its Sunday again and I'm here at the venue setting things up! Let's have a great turnout tonight! See everyone soon!

Thanks @Totshy for coming out. It was awesome getting to meet you and your friends. And as always thanks @Jack Burton for helping with setup! I appreciate everyone that came out and hopefully we can continue to grow our numbers. Remember that these sessions are for the community and for all of us to learn and play together. The bigger the community the better! Let's have an even bigger turnout next Sunday!
 
Was looking for something around morning time through afternoon. So anytime from now till about 4:00pm. Just a huge gap in my schedule that I was hoping could be filled.

Yeah sorry man I usually don't get off until a little before 4 and so itll be a little after 4 when i get back to my apartment. So it doesn't look like I'd be able to host you until after 4. Let me know if you're still in the city by that time and let me know whenever you're free for casuals in general to see if we can work something out

I could to that, I'll call that anti hype day. I could warm up for the tournament that I can't go to lol I'll still help you move however.

I will be holding casuals tonight at my apartment and everyone is welcome to join in. If you plan on coming just let me know so I can get a headcount. We have two setups and 3 pads, so we may need more depending on who shows up? @Totshy @QED are you guys in? @The.Real.Quaid will be on his way shortly

Due to some players not being able to make it and me being the only one confirmed to show up at Brewcade tonight, I'm unfortunately going to cancel tonight's gathering. Sorry for the inconvenience.
