The new Salinas area thread! [3C]

Would anyone be interested in starting a carpool with me so we could go to more events since Salinas is a shithole that has no possible place to host so the three or four people sit around playing online instead?

Hey, I am down for that. A couple friends and I usually play every weekend. We play almost all fighting games but our main game is AE. We might consider hosting something. I’ll let them know. Also let me know if you are still interested in playing. Seems like this thread is not too active :frowning:

Sorry I didn’t respond sooner, I had kinda given up on this scene and stopped checking. Has there been any updates?

I’m in Marina and I’m looking for a crew to get down with on some local games. I don’t play SF though, all I play is UMVC3. I’m not opposed to occasionally having a few people over to my pad for some games. I got a car and I’m down to travel to salas.

We are all still down for something if people are interested.

If Mahvel is being played, I’m very interested and willing to do what I can to help.

you guys should come over to fresno. we have alot of great competitors for marvel and AE.

I don’t know shit about Marvel but I’m willing to learn the game to get something going here in Salinas.

If I could afford the gas for 5 hours of driving, I would probably head for the Bay Area.

In that case, I’ll try to play some AE or any fighting game in general for that matter too. There really is no scene in Marina/Seaside/Salinas and I’m ready to do whatever I can to at least attempt to get something going. Does anyone know if Santa Cruz has a scene? I know they used to have a few really good mvc2 players back in the day.

Well we need to figure out two things first:
What day of the week is collectively the best for everyone, including the venue/house?
Where can we all gather up that is within reasonable distance?

For any of you locals who didn’t make it Evo this year either, we’ll be watching the stream in HD if any of you want to stop by. We’ll have some casual Marvel on the side as well. Tonight 6:30pm on, and Sunday for most of the finals. Just message me and come on down.

ok so im new in this community but i would like to know if you guys are goin to have a tournament or something for umvc3?

For some of you who don’t know the store Gamers in Control in the mall in Salinas will be holding a tournament for Street fighter 4 Arcade edition.

$10 entry fee

Pretty high for a small store if ya ask me. Though cash prize.

yup seem pretty high but i would like to see how is going to be the competition so can you give us a specific date?

August 24th at 7pm I believe.

shawn, do you still have gatherings? i havent had any local play with anyone for a while now.

Who is going to Evo? I’m looking to see if theres anyone local I could carpool with, since that would be easier.

I’m dying here.

Gilroy here let me know if anything comes together.
