NorCal KOF members haven't been the most vocal about meet-ups. If people want to meet up and play, there are places like Starbase or gamecenter, but who is really down to go?
Also, if people are really interested in the game, but just want to watch, that's really their loss. Got to come out and support. That's why the arcade's done. There's plenty of people who use this forum in our area, but very few show up to tournaments (Even once).
