Site News: Why The Fuck Should I Donate To AvoidingthePuddle.com?

We have added a donate tab at the top of our web site.

Why the fuck should I donate to AvoidingthePuddle.com?

TTT2 is just around the corner and I am very lucky to have three arcades within ten miles of my house that are getting it. One of my goals for this web site is to provide people all over the world with a weekly live stream of TTT2 from the arcade. Unfortunately, stream equipment is expensive.

 

What exactly will my donations buy?

At first, all donations we receive will go towards printing Avoiding the Puddle T-shirts. We will eventually be selling these T-shirts as well as accepting donations in order to raise money for proper stream equipment to be able to stream TTT2 for the world.

Once we get enough money to print T-shirts, we will have arcade stick giveaways as a thank you to everyone who helped make it happen. Hori was very generous and hooked us up with a couple arcade sticks to give away so that’s another thing to look forward to.

Even if you can’t donate, just visiting our site and spreading the word helps. All donations are very much appreciated and are going back into the community that we all love.

ok done - it's not a huge amount - but it should get the ball rolling...

Thanks for the service Aris, means a lot to many of us.

Greets Aris, we met at EVO2k9 and discussed SC4's flaws.

I haven't played a fighter seriously since then; but I like the site and very much like the much more fast and loose feel compared to TZ's... well... clunkiness. More options spurs competition, which spurs quality.

Next I get paid I'll throw you some $.

Keep it up man!

TTT2 Stream -> worth every cent.

Wow, has there been an announcement about the arcade release date or something? I only know about it being released in Japan's arcades this summer.

I'll donate something a little later today.

I wouldn't exactly say that TT2 is just around the corner and I would argue that at the scenes (or one of them) they would probably have someone that is proficient enough or with stream equipment already. However, I would probably donate if money went DIRECTLY into stream-equipment and not as is now; towards tshirts to promote this site. So give an update when the tshirt theory is done with (and sorry for being an asshole).

Your podcast is great, you can have my money. Just make this TTT2 stream the best fucking thing in the entire English speaking tekken community, I'm counting on you Aris!

Done... And thanks for everything to everyone involved in the site. Need to spread the love beyond Aris sometime.
