Vampire Savior at UGC

This Friday at UGC we'll have a Vampire Savior tourney... but this time I'll be attempting to stream it. We'll go live at around 9pm PDT/12am EDT.

I haven't streamed from outside of my house like this before, and I'm using a whole lot of new equipment I've really only tested once, plus I may have trouble getting on the internet there - SO DON'T BE SURPRISED IF THERE ARE HICCUPS WITH THE STREAM, or if it doesn't even get going at all.

While I haven't been as vocal with posting up notices of VSAV going on at UGC lately, we've still being doing them weekly, getting 12-20 entrants. If the stream goes well I'll probably start making a bigger deal out of the whole thing. We'll see how it goes.

If you're interested in coming down yourself, here are the details. Let me know if I should be expecting someone new!  -- 

Location: Ultimate Gaming Center - UGC, 8551 Vesper Avenue, Panorama City, CA 91402
Time: 8pm PDT
Venue Fee: $7
