Not sure if this is the right place, but here goes!
Does anyone have any advice on how to find local playgroups / players? I've tried going to local FNM's and been, well, kind of variable. The games themselves are great, but it seems everyone is off to find the group they came in with between matches, and then leaves with those same folks. It could just be Vancouver ( compared to other cities I've lived it, it's not very, well... social, here ), but FNM seems to almost tautologically lead just to the next FNM, and what can I say, I'd like to play more!
I love casual play, but I love competitive play outside of FNM / Tournaments too, so I'm pretty much happy to play with anyone on spectrum of Magic with a variety of decks in different formats. Plus I know there are lots of Magic players around.
Is there some kind of Magic listings to find other players in your area? ( I've sound searches for events, but not players / play-groups. ) It seems there must be some kind of demand for this ( Have Burn, will travel! ) from folks who love Magic but maybe don't have an established base of Magic-inclined friends. ( I used to have a good group, but that one just sort of happened and then people either moved away or went back to school, etc. )
