Ah, see? Maybe this site ISN'T dead after all ^^

I'm sure Blaz Blue is helping bring back interest in Guilty Gear as well; all these kids who never even heard of GG are discovering Blaz Blue and liking it, then finding out "holy crap, these developers made LOTS of super-fast 2D fighting games!" As of right now, my schedule is fairly random since my job has full-time flex hours, which means that I work 40 hours a week at whatever times and whatever days they choose to schedule me. I'm hoping to get my old nighttime job back, in which case I'll be working overnights M-T-W-T-F and have all weekends off, that would make it much easier to reliably schedule daytime events. As of now, I'm generally free evenings on days I do work, and I'm off today, but my next days off won't be till next Thursday and Friday. And I'd be willing to travel wherever around STL, as long as there's a good group of people waiting for me at the other end...and it's not in a neighborhood I'm likely to get mugged/raped/killed, of course.

Wow, I didn't realize there were so many people in STL dedicated to these games, cool. I've been a GG nut ever since first playing the Dreamcast version of GGX (9 years ago?? Makes me feel so old...) but I've never really gotten involved in any competitions, except at anime cons, and THAT hardly counts. In fact I wasn't even aware of this online community until last week; of course I promptly signed up and I've been devouring the messageboards since then, this seems to be the most active St. Louis area board so I figured this was probably the place to post. So, anyway, my point, if I can stop rambling for long enough to reach it, is that I'd love to get a little bit more involved in my local GG/BB scene. I live, quite literally, in the middle of the woods in southern Illinois, and have no broadband internet so online play is out of the question, so, by necessity, I'm willing to drive wherever in Greater St. Louis for meetups and tourneys and ice cream socials or whatever-it-is you wacky kids do these days. Jam and Noel are my primaries (as if that wasn't obvious by my sn), so if anybody's wanting an IRL sparring partner, just drop me a line. I thank you for your consideration, and hope I haven't spread too much n00bsauce around by breaking into the thread.
