I'll be there before 3 as well. I've really been wanting to play some melty at ai @.@
Out of curiosity, do you guys at AI prefer to avoid console gatherings?
AI is more a convenience since i can go anytime, and there is usually good comp for most games. I've also been around community for a few years already so I've grown accustomed to goin there and I know (of) several of the faces there.
For a Melty gathering in particular though, everyone is so spread out, and I really don't know many faces to names in the Melty community. At the same time though, I've been out of the loop in forever so it's kinda my fault that i don't know.
And as Bell says... Temecula is kinda far... I will go down one of these days though. Just gotta plan ahead. I've also wanted to scrub it out in loli bullet fighter as well.
On another note: it'd be nice to combine the ai thread and the "non-ai" thread to a single socal thread.
