@Xxenace - I'm just curious, but have you checked the matchmaking section at SRK? You're from North Carolina right?
I'm sure there is something you can find in your state. For years I thought there was absolutely nothing in upstate NY, but after doing a little searching, I found a nice crowd about 40 minutes away from me. I've been doing what I can to get interest in KOFXIII, managed to get a few players into it, and one guy in particular loves KOF and outright says it's that XIII is the best fighting game of this generation.
