Hey just a heads up, I no longer live in the Springfield area but I’ll be by that way from time to time. I’m headed up that way this Friday if anyone wants to meet up for some matches. Unfortunately I don’t have a pad or venue we could play at. It will probably be around 7:30-8:00 pm in the evening. Hit me up on here if you guys are interested. I’m crazy rusty but ready for some GGs.
I’m really sorry to hear that Dennis. It’s been fun, and hopefully you can show up again in the future.
What’s good Springfield? On my way across the country to Evo this year I stopped in at Next Level and really liked the place and what Fred over there is trying to do. I’ve been writing a whole series of articles about the places I stopped at for iPlayWinner.com. My article on Springfield and Next Level just went up. I tried to build hype for your scene and for Fred as much as I could. Check it out:
Hope you guys dig it. Keep doing what you do!
Awesome write-up man! We’re certainly still chugging away at trying to build the community, but Fred certainly has been more than accommodating for us, even on weekends were the might only be 2 of us there playing.
Good shit, yo. Anyway, been practicing a bit of Arcana Heart, so I’ll probably play that too if we have a tournament.
And Dennis, be sure to take care of yourself. =]
Whoa Next Level sounds awesome. What are some good nights to stop in for matches? Looking forward to going.
Saturdays are probably your best bet right now. Mondays as well at Meta Games (though I only have 2 more weeks I’ll be able to attend there due to changes in my work schedule). If you happen to be around Bolivar at all Friday nights, my place is open as well to come out for some games.
I may be able to stop by tomorrow, if that’s cool. Mind messaging me your information so I can get back to you / find it? Looking at getting back into the scene now that I have the time. Springfield will probably start being my best bet since it has a bunch of players and isn’t too far from here.
Sorry to hear you’re having problems. I’ll be praying for you. If there’s anything else I can do to help, please let me know.
It was a blast playing games with you and I hope you have the opportunity to return once you’ve sorted things out. Either way, I wish you good health and good games.
On the subject of tournaments: I probably won’t be attending today’s (10/22) tournaments. With Dennis not attending, I’m almost certain we won’t have enough players to make a Puzzle Fighter tournament (though I’m sad to say it, because I’d LOVE to play in a Puzzle Fighter tourney). I also won’t be playing in any of the other tourneys and I got a late start on my admin duties today.
I hope to be back next week and playing casuals again! I learned last week just how rusty I am at SSFIV and I need to get my Chun game back in shape.
I already posted this to the Springfield Fighting Game Community page, but I’m reposting it here:
I had been looking forward to casuals at Next-Level tomorrow (especially after missing last week), but I won’t be able to make it. I hope to get out to Next-Level on Nov. 5!
It’s cool man, Josh showed up for a bit today so we got some games in.
Also wanted to post up that our next tournament at Next Level is going to be Nov. 19th, so mark your calendars!
Believe me when I say I would have rather been at Next-Level today. Glad to hear you weren’t the only one up there today.
Outlook calendar marked!
Alright Springfield folk and some of or far-driving folk! Want to do a Springfield Roll-Call.
Who out in the Springfield Area is still reading this thread and is, at least theoretically, interested in some fight-game throwdowns? Please post a reply somewhere in here.
Definitely still interested! I need to shake the rust off my SSFIV game.
Interested. Having a hard time finding the time but yes, still very interested.
Obviously I’m still around, certainly interested in some other throwdowns if I have time, especially now that Mondays are out for me.
I’m always interested, but my work schedule is crap right now. I’d have to hear what you have in mind before I can commit to anything.

Reposting periodically this week, wanna keep this running. Please quote the above with your reply so late arrivals see whats going on here
^ Of course I’m still around, and still interested. I can’t make it up every Saturday, but I go when I can. October has basically been me saving up money to repair my car so I can still go to tourneys and such.
I’ll probably start coming around more often once Ultimate drops.
Hope to see some Springfield heads up in KC next weekend. Going to be the biggest Missouri tournament yet- don’t miss it!
