I posted this on the new member introduction thread, but I'll post here as well

Hi, I'm a former TO from NorCal who's finally decided to join Smashboards. While I haven’t been around as much as I used to be, I still try to be involved as much as I can, with my latest effort being the 6th NorCal Melee Arcadian, where best PM player in the world ThunderZReigN has been allowed to enter for the past 3 years and has made top 8 at 2 of them.

A lot of my involvement with the community has been through Facebook, but I've come to realize that it's more of a common thing to not use that website (at least, from a handful of the newer players that only started going to tournaments recently). I guess the most important tournament I've worked on was a local that took place right before Genesis 3 in 2016, which gave us the first glimpse of players such as Ranai and Komorikiri playing outside of Japan for the first time. Grand finals of that event can be found here btw.

I'm not really too active in the scene anymore ever since I started pharmacy school, which has been a major accomplishment for me. Just recently, I launched a survey study aimed at examining gamers of all types, gaming behaviors, and any medications/supplements that are used. Most participants in the survey have testified that it has taken about 10-15 minutes max to complete it. The link to this survey can be found here, and if you feel so inclined to share on Twitter, a tweet containing the survey link can be found here. Any and all input/help is much appreciated. Thank you for you time.

PS: if you're looking to start a scene, especially at a college/university, my inbox/Twitter is open to any and all questions about that as well.

Hi, been a while. All this E3 stuff has been super exciting and I got majorly distracted. I also started going to tournaments again for the first time in a few years, which has been exciting too.

We've somehow surpassed 500 participants for this survey, which is amazing. My team is still looking for more input to help our data set be more well-rounded. It's still not too late to take our survey, and all you need is to be at least 18 years old and have played some amount of video games within the past year.

You can take it here: https://tuc.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_ba5y2FXCFgWgu7X.

Thanks to everyone that has taken it so far, your input has been much appreciated.
