Hey Cresence,
Melty is in a... a bit of a weird situation right now. No one seems to really want to practice with the current port. A lot of people seem to be holding out for a console port. With that said, if you want to come out and meet the community, I am running a monthly tournament for Arcana Heart 3 and Persona 4 Areana- possibly Vampire Savior
this Saturday. I can't promise you'll get melty games in, but you'll at least get to meet a lot of the community.
Also worth checking out is the
Philly thread on Dustloop. It's a lot easier to organize people for smaller games in one thread, so I will always post up on Dustloop when we're meeting up.
Hope you can come out!
