Record of Donations for UD-CPS2 (SUCCESS)

This is simply a record of the successful donation fund I ran and completed during 2014-2015. Thank you to all who donated, the Vampire Savior scene I feel has greatly benefited from your generosity!

================================================
The Donation Fund has officially started up to acquire two UD-CPS2, as well as two Vampire Savior boards to go along with them. After EVO it was clear that the scene had grown beyond my single UD-CPS2. Getting two more systems would allow us to run almost any tournament or event with ease.

For those who don't know, the UD-CPS2 is a consolized CPS2, the arcade system that Vampire Savior was released on. It allows us to play the arcade release of Vampire Savior in a modern format with USB XBOX 360 and PS3 controllers. They have minimal setup compared to a supergun and can be played on any TV. Here is an image from EVO2014 of my UD-CPS2 and the two loaners units: [http://i.imgur.com/rsOk9kl.jpg](http://i.imgur.com/rsOk9kl.jpg)

**Cost breakdown**
• $350 – UD-CPS2
• $350 – UD-CPS2
• ~~$125 – Vampire Savior CPS2 Arcade Board~~(DONATED)
• ~~$125 – Vampire Savior CPS2 Arcade Board~~(GOT FOR $100)

The amount to raise comes out to be ~~**$950**~~ **$825**, not including shipping costs.

**Contributions**
• $512 – Anonymous
• VSAV CPS2 B-Board – Mr. Igloo
• $80 – My EVO 2014 Second Place Winnings
• $75 – djstorm
• $50 – Krakhan
• $34.50 – Infy
• $20 – Mekei
• $15 – ChooseAGoose
• $13.37 – KFL
• $10 – northdash
• $10 - Sinjihn
• $10 – Amaxing
• $5 – Devita
• $5 – Raven_257
• $3 – Ewickify

**$842.87** has been currently raised, minus whatever Paypal has taken out.

I'm also considering running GGPO tournaments for high contributors for a game of their choosing. I haven't set a price for this yet, but it is potentially a bit of work on my end if I don't already know the game since I'd need to learn it first. Let me know if you're interested!

That's it for now, thanks for reading! If there are any questions or concerns just ask!

Vampire Savior & Salty at Game Realms in Burbank, California - Every Other Friday at 8pm PST!

It's been a long five months since we left TGL, but we finally have a new venue for Vampire Savior here in Southern California! This Friday we'll be meeting at Game Realms in Burbank, with a bi-weekly schedule (every 2 weeks).

Location: Game Realms
Address: 137 N. Victory Blvd, Burbank, CA, 91502
Website: http://gamerealmsstore.tumblr.com/

Date: Friday, September 16th, 2016
Time: Sign ups start at 8pm. VSAV tournament will start at 9pm.
(I'll show up with the VSAV boards at 7:30~ pm)

Venue Fee: $5
Tournament Entry Fee: FREE

Streams
-Vampire Savior: http://www.twitch.tv/ROTANIBOR
--Will go live with VSAV around 8:30pm PDT / 11:30pm EDT
-Skullgirls & GGAC+R: http://www.twitch.tv/game_realms

--Background--


Once again we'll be with the wonderful SoCal Skullgirls community, meaning there will be Skullgirls and Guilty Gear +R tournaments in addition to Vampire Savior. In the future I'll be probably running other games as well, but I'll be focusing on VSAV until we get settled in.

This location seems perfect for us, we (the VSAV and SG communities) were admittedly picky about where to go next which was partially the reason for the long delay, but Game Realms seems to do everything right! The regulars of our group are very excited, and newcomers are always welcome to join in.

If you're a newcomer, send me a tweet that you'll be coming so I know to expect you. It's not required, but I'll make sure you'll have a spot in the bracket at least if you do. Likewise, if you're a regular and are potentially going to be late, let me know as well. All are welcome!
