Nice write up! Sounds like rolling with other FGC people is the way to go. This was my first tournament as well and not having anyone to play next to is a real bummer. I ended up posting up at the bring your own console section with my PS4 and just playing a few matches against the few people who stopped by. It didn't even occur to me that there would some GB folks there that I could perhaps call on. Alas, it probably would not of changed the beat-down that Fuudo gave me on stream during my first match, but maybe it would of been at least a little less one sided.
