Hello,

Is there anyone who would be interested in playing xwing in the South SF Bay Area locale?

I'm hoping to begin a free, casual, store tournament/meetup with prizes probably and normal regular meet ups to play and practice?

Also, hoping to get into Armada myself with Imperials, so hoping there might be someone out there who wants to play that too!

Hey, we've been doing learn to play at our store, becuase I really want to start getting people into Armada. We also already have a community of casual Xwing players who meet sunday afternoons and friday nights (around 2pm and 6pm respectively). We also do tournaments.
Stop by friday, I'd love to play Armada with you.

Will do. Hoping to come by on Friday night! when do you start?

Please join the SF Bay Area X wing group on facebook! Last I checked it was over 150 members. There are incredible active groups all over the South Bay.

Correction: Apokalypse Gaming (otherwise, Google won't find it!)

wait are all you lovely people in this area????

I believe Comic Collector Shop would be Sunnyvale, not mountain view.

Had no idea that FB group existed... Just joined. Thanks!

About a year ago, D&J Hobby (on the SJ-Saratoga border) was playing X-Wing on alternate Sunday afternoons. I haven't checked lately, but it's still listed on their Google calendar.

I play at D and J Hobby all the time! But no one shows up anymore except me. =(

The employees there are really really nice though. And they play with me sometimes when they're free.

Also, amazingly enough, I think its a nicer store to women and kids. A lot less of the sneering competitive ******* males.

Crazy story from another store nearby: I had this father of two boys accuse me of lying, and price bumping when I was trying to trade with his kid with his permission. Then I had the my price confirmed and he continued to simply be extremely rude.

Will do. Hoping to come by on Friday night! when do you start?

People usually start showing up around 6 or 7

Woh! Blail, you're in the SF Bay Area? Did you just move here? We just finished our 8-store Store Championships Tour, were you able to attend any?

Anyway, if you're ever up in the Oakland or SF area, let me know. I'd love to get a game in. And yes, join the Bay Area X-Wing Facebook group. We just passed 160 members and are still growing (and assimilating all the X-wing players out there... wait, wrong game )

You might have my membership kryzak, but never my soul! (Cause dat 3 hour drive) Now go win the big one this Saturday and see you at regionals.

Haha Hujoe, it was great seeing you (and your awesome Mandalorian armor/helmet) at the GoB SC. I'll do my best tomorrow and see you in SacTown in July!

Hi, kryzak!

Hope to get in a game with you too some day. I'm nearer to San Jose and Saratoga. Do you ever come down to South Bay?

(I do sometimes come up to Fremont, but ugh. I am not a great driver.)

Edit: (See you're in SF actually.)

I haven't gone down to GK Santa Clara in a while, I should. Met and played a few guys from there who were all very fun and cool. I go to GK Fremont once in a while, and still want to make it to Comic Collector Shop some day. Generally I hang in the SF/East bay area though, but make it down to Heretic Games sometimes. Find me in the FB Group and add me as a friend.

Nice list!

I have never heard of Isle of Gamers before, I have to check it out!

Game Kastle Santa Clara used to be my favorite spot for gaming but lately the store manager has turned a bit hostile towards x-wing (they haven't had a single tournament in who knows when and he will regularly harass x-wing players if he thinks they are taking up space).

Nice list!

Oh that's unfortunate, no wonder I can never get the store to respond about X-Wing tournaments. =( At least there's Comic Collector Shop and Apokalypse games around there now. CCS seems to be super supportive of X-Wing and Star Wars games.

Just to clarify, the issue is with one of the managers who happens to be the event coordinator. I don't know if the owner is aware of people's grievance with him.

Thankfully there are plenty other places to play! Seth at Fremont GK is an amazing dude, and I know the owner of Bigger Better Games intents to heavily support the existing X wing and the emergent Armada community.

Nice list!

Yes, we LOVE X-Wing!

Evidence A) Here I am! Haha

Also, we are not in mountain view, we are at 574 East El Camino Real in Sunnyvale. The Mountain View location is old.

Mike is awesome! Wish I still lived in Sunnyvale.

Tell me something I don't know. But if you keep inflating my ego there won't be any room to game in the shop!

Hi Blail, like kryzak said earlier, we would've loved to see you during the Bay SC tour!

I am a South Bay native and would love another frequent play partner. PM me if you're available for a game sometime!

Yeah, the business with GK Santa Clara was the result of last year's store championship. Poor manager was left to run the largest attended SC of that season and had zero experience with the game. TO called in sick. He did good but it left a bad taste. Andrew and I ended up having to score it for him at the end.

Bobby and James still do a good job keeping the community together over there! You should try to visit them for sure.

Naht at 8-Bit Gamers just ran an event and that place is a really cool scene. Everyone around here should check him out.

Anyhow, the Bay Area is a real pleasant place to play and the skill level definitely increases the further North you go! It's kind of ridiculous.

Yay! New friends!

Oh my goodness. I have odd working hours so I love playing Xwing all the time. Especially during the day when normal, good-working people are being busy and responsible.

Please send me a msg anytime for a game!

I would have loved to come, but I think I found out just a tad too late and I've actually gotten multiple days of Xwing in the alst few days, so super happy about that.

So if I'm south bay, does that mean we've got the weakest competition? hahaha.
