I was just curious about this one. Seeing that there are getting to be quite a few members here, it is entirely possible that some of us might live right down the road from each other. So I was just wondering if anyone here has been close enough to ever get together with another member.

Nope, sure haven\'t. Weltall lives in Richmond, Va. which is only about an hour and a half away from me, but he\'s the closest I think.

I thought up of something but never posted it. I thought once PS2 got internet connection on games we could have a tournament or something at a scheduled time. Cool idea? :D

I go to GMU which is in Fairfax VA, but I am from the Woodbridge area myself.

As for playing other forum members, I do it all the time. :)  Mostly people from the tekken zaibatsu forum.  I must have met over 75 people by now due to that place.  I remember spending nights over at peoples\' houses from time to time.  The craziest story is talking with a forum member on IRC, then driving over 1.5 hr to pick him up and play him at the local mall in Annapolis, MD.  I never even met the guy before, but this is Tekken we\'re talking about here! :D

My friends just got back from the North East Champioships (TTT & MvC2 were played) which was in Philly.  My buddy Will placed 2nd and won over $100, but he should\'ve gotten 1st. :boom:  We also travel all around the east coast, namely nyc; Dunellen, NJ; Newport News/VA Beach, VA; all around MD, and most recently Atlanta, GA.  Can\'t wait for ECC 6 (east coast championships) coming up, which is expecting players from California to fly in.  All this would not be possible without internet bulletin boards.

Aaron & w1ngman- I actually went to Richmond several times for Tekken gatherings.  One of which was the VA Tekken regional tournament back in 99.  Any of you go to that?

Ahhhh the wonders of ubb, irc, and mapquest. :)

Don\'t none of you guys ever come near me!  I\'m fat and bald and you\'d laugh at me and kill what little self esteem I have left after the Girlscouts refused to sell me some cookies.

No, I\'ve never to been to any Tekken Contest or tournament. There are more people from Va here than I thought, I guess that is pretty cool.
