If you live in Saint Louis or Kansas City there are skullgirl players in both cities! post up here and we can hook you up with a local scene!
 
Fairly new SG enthusiast. But I think I'm now with this game for keeps. I would definitely like to try and meet some of the local talent since I'm starting to get competitive... and then be crushed by them and never come back XD. Oh but yeah I am from the STL area. d(^_^o)

all right! good to hear. there arnt many of us but we have a few dedicated players. if you are on facebook check out www (dot) facebook (dot) com (slash) groups (slash) stlsg
we mainly play at danno's american pub on watson and laclede station rd. mondays are the stl fighting game community tournament nights (main mvc3 and sf4) and there is a door charge of $5 and Saturdays at like noon or 1 is free play.
 
Good to know man I'll definitely have to check it out. Not sure when since both will typically conflict with school or work but I'm sure I'll find time for it d(^_^o)

ahhh, that sucks. you should at least join the facebook group, though.
 
Kansas City currently has a pretty big (relatively speaking of course) Skullgirls community with 6 active players and new people that are interested in learning the game. We currently have three to four local meetups a week and a very active Facebook community.

There seems to be quite a bit of interest in Skullgirls in our community, so I'm updating the thread with full information. Be sure to stop by and play, everyone!

First thing is first, the Facebook group for our players:

https://www.facebook.com/groups/KcSrk/

This is the most active and central form of communication for Kansas City fighting game players! Please request to join and you will be approved to join the group in minutes. This is the central hub for information regarding where to find hookups and tournaments, so I strongly suggest you join!

Here is the information for "hookups" (a night where people get together to play games, I didn't name it, this is just what's it been called forever). Stop by and introduce yourself! We don't bite! (except me and Dhoppler when we play Fortune)

HOOKUP INFORMATION:

Weekly Skullgirls hookup:
Thursdays, start time 7 - 730 pm

Hosted by R0bl0x (and occasionally myself). These are announced on a week to week basis. Join our Facebook group, post a message there, and I'll invite you to our Facebook chat where you can get the information. These will usually be on Thursday evenings in Overland Park.

Saturday:
Riverside Dojo hosted by MoTheHawk
Address:
Delaware Lofts - 218 Delaware St, Apt 108, Kansas City, MO 64105
Time:
8 pm to whenever

MoTheHawk hosts a weekly meetup where a large variety of games are played and streamed, usually ending with a nightly round of Cards Against Humanity. Fun atmosphere, plenty of space, and is usually right after a weekly food hookup at the amazing Vietnam Cafe located at (522 Cambell St). Come out to play a wide variety of game's and contribute to our growing streaming presence.


Monthly tournament series, Maxout:

MAXOUT


This image has been resized to fit in the page. Click to enlarge.


Kansas City's long running monthly tournament series held at Next Door Pizza and Pub in Lee's Summit Missouri. Skullgirls is quickly becoming a popular tournament game there, our last tournament had 9 entrants! We need YOUR help to continue making Skullgirls a tournament staple of Maxout, so if you're able to attend PLEASE do. Also our community is super cool and chill and we love meeting and playing with new people.

There is a $10 venue fee for this tournament that will be waived if you provide a full setup (console with approved lag free monitor).

Check this thread and the Facebook group for when Maxout will be, it happens every month but the dates change every month as well.

Address of Next Door Pizza and MAXOUT:
3385 SW Fascination Drive, Lees Summit, Missouri 64081

Thread has been updated! If you have any more questions feel free to post or contact me.

Awesome! We have a tournament this weekend if you'd be interested in attending. We'll be running Skullgirls later in the night, around 5 or 6 pm.

Let me know if that doesn't work for you.

If some more people post I'll update OP with our hookup information. In the meantime if you'd like it feel free to PM me. :)
The FB link didn't work. Probably won't be able to make it this weekend. My work/college schedule kinda makes it hard for me to get away, but if this is a regular thing, I'll be sure to try to make it as often as I can.
 
Yo, just in here confirming we do totally have a KC skullgirls scene. There are also a few dudes out in STL who play regularly down at danno's bar I think. I'll have to get ben in here to post details for their hookups.

yea, we play at dannos most mondays and saturdays and have a dedicated sg hookup every other friday.
 
What days do you fellas get together? I'm over in Lawrence, but would love to get some live games rather than having to play everything online. Also, if anyone lives in/around Lawrence, you should totally come to my apartment and play.

Hookups have been kind of scare lately due to the holidays and bad weather, but once they resume we usually get together on Tuesday and Friday.

Tuesdays are in downtown Kansas City at my friend's AJ loft, and Fridays are at Blackdog Coffee House in Lenexa.
 
I'm in Wichita so I could maybe be down for coming out to something sometime.
 
Awesome! I'll be sure to let you guys know when our next event is in January!
 
You guys brought a car-load up to CHI and we're very thankful for it! That's shows heart to drive all that way. It's stuff like that that can make the scenes happen!

I'll see some of you on the 11th in St Louis, hopefully.

Thank you! We had a great time!

Thread has been updated! I hope to see the new players soon! :)
 
I'll definitely attend when I can. If not before, I should be able to make it in March.
 
Is anyone going to the tourney that'll be passing around Lawrence? I want to go, but my car started acting up and I don't know if it'll be highway ready by next week. I can toss cash for gas and whatnot, just not 100% sure I'll have a car.

If you join the Facebook group and ask there are some people that could probably give you a ride that live in that area.
 
Any idea if/when the recordings from Maxout are gonna be up?

No idea, gotta hit up Roblox for that one.

Weekly Skullgirls hookups are very soon gonna be a thing in our community. More information on that soon. For now, be sure to join our Facebook group so I can add you to the chat we use to organize this stuff.
 
<<<<<<< the only introduction I need.
 
to be fair, hype levels may have been involved in any PC issues.
 
If any of y'all ever get down to Wichita, I'd be down to get together for some sets :)

You should try to make it down for Maxout!

Thread OP updated with Maxout information, our long running tournament series. We run Skullgirls every month!

You mean make it up for Maxout? Geography humor lol XD

I totally would, but I'm trying to save up for a trip to Cali in March to see some of the Salty guys and then Evo in July. Little strapped for cash :/
 
So weather permitting I'll host a hookup again this Thursday. We'll be running ranbats starting this week, so hopefully most people can make it out. If anyone needs directions or something just PM me or hit me up on facebook.

Oh and I forgot to upload the other two maxout parts, I'll start that now. If anyone wants, I can also start recording/uploading our ranbats.

this is the youtube channel you'll find that stuff on http://www.youtube.com/user/heylookitsrob/videos

Wait, you uploaded the videos at 5 am? The hell is wrong with you boy? Get your ass to bed.
 
Btw alex is your car still dead? It'd kinda rule to have you for the ranbat this week.
 
Yeah. Turns out there's a problem with my headgasket. I can partially rely on it to let me get around Lawrence, but I can't trust it on a highway. Shopping for something new but I wasn't planning on getting a new car till this summer so I"m kinda SOL
 
Sounds like its time for a Bank Heist. Skullheist 2014. We need money to get people to EVO too.

(I'm only joking in case somebody ever uses this to incriminate me.)
 
without implying anything, i live within walking distance of 3 or so banks.

On the plus side, I think i've convinced one or two more people to start coming to Maxout from Lawrence, but they're both busy with grad and law school respectively, so it's a trick to get out for weeklies if it's on a weekday.
