**Hey 209 Area FGC Members, Gary (ShockBeast) here, & I’m trying to start a local FGC Scene cause i’m tired of going to San Jose/Stockton/Sac/Fresno/Etc. on a Weekly Basis for Offline Competition needs. I Reside here in L.B. (209 Area) & finally got fed-up with my traveling, and am posting this thread in the hopes of uniting some of you Local 209 Area FGC Players, (I know you guys are out here cause I saw a couple of your posts here in Reg.Matchmaking, I’ll try to get you guys in this thread by messaging you guys individually).
My Short-Term goal by posting this thread is to tally-up how much of us FGC Players are out here locally & to try to start a Monthly or Bi-Weekly Gathering Event on a regular basis so that we can attend & Level-Up our Local Scene. When we reach around 5 or so Local Players in this thread (No Specific#, Although 3 would be sufficient enough to move forward), we’ll try to meet-up in a local coffee-shop & discuss our options such as gathering event location/times/set-up/etc.
My Long Term goal is to eventually form a Local Team for our FGC Scene & Run Consistent Streamed Weekly/Bi-Weekly/Monthy Fight Nights!! Separately from MBF (Online Weekly), Although we can incorporate MBF into our Gatherings with Various Set-Ups for Multiple Games, & Put Ourselves on the FGC MAP so we can attend bigger (Drivable) events together as a Team such as NCR/SCR/EVO/etc. (While wearing our Team Logo Shirts) & Eventually have our very own Local Arcade here in the 209 Area. That Dream is a bit of an imagination right now, cause we gotta take the 1st step First & start a local FGC Scene.
SO PLEASE REPLY TO THIS THREAD!! IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN JOINING A LAID-BACK/LIKE-MINDED GROUP OF PEOPLE OR SHARE A COMMON GOAL/VISION IN OUR LOCAL AREA’s FGC SCENE SO WE KNOW HOW MANY PLAYERS WE’RE WORKING WITH!!.

(For the purposes of this Thread) 209 FGC Local Scene does not have to be 209 specifically itself, although I would like for us to stay within 209 as much as possible with a radius of about 50 Miles so we don’t inconvenience ourselves too much. I will try my best to monitor & update this thread as more locals join this posting, & will keep you guys updated. I hope to get something in motion soon, So Stay tuned for more Info & do your part to grow our passion for the FGC <3 Community. THANK YOU!!
