They do have $3300 lined up to match, so...that total is pretty much $13500 right now.

Okay now I'm scared. Guys, looks like we all need to fight back.

MK26 · Jan 24, 2013

Dammit, we need a donation stream with girls. They're killing it.

Smooth Criminal · Jan 24, 2013

Yoooooooooooooooooooooo

we gotta step it up, guys

SheerMadness · Jan 24, 2013

Yah, they have all the voice actresses there. Pretty ridiculous.

fatman667 · Jan 24, 2013

YEP YEP YEP They're at $11,629.96 now. Okay I'm scared now. That's without their pledged $3,300 so they're gonna pass us at this point.

EDIT: We underestimated the power of the skull girls.

Thino · Jan 24, 2013

time to wake up Melee community, prepare our wallets

Grinin · Jan 24, 2013

This just means it's time for us to shift into gear and mobilize again. Get your donations ready. We still have tons of people who are willing to contribute. Another drive wouldn't hurt either. We still got this.

황미영 · Jan 24, 2013

WELP GG MELEE. Soz.

@Grinin - I thought there was going to be another Melee it On Me donation drive at the end of the month?

KrIsP! · Jan 25, 2013

We've come this far, looks like it's time to spam the regional threads, facebook groups, monthlies and weeklies. Get big players to MM for Evo, get more tourneys with money going to it. I mean, whatever they pass us by, it won't be much...a lot of people haven't chipped in a cent yet, maybe they'll feel obligated when everyone is talking about it like it's a sure thing but it's not.

batistabus · Jan 25, 2013

They've certainly passed us for tonight. Save up for now and get ready for that final push.

There is, iirc. Still, though, the drive is over on the 29th.

We got about four days.

MonkUnit · Jan 25, 2013

LivewiresXe · Jan 25, 2013

That's about 1K off, $13,029.96 is more accurate.

SoulPech · Jan 25, 2013

that's because it JUST updated. i've already corrected it

MonkUnit · Jan 25, 2013

The SG devs still have their 3k that they've pledged to donate as well. So it's technically 16k for now

standardtoaster · Jan 25, 2013

i can donate like 20 tomorrow i think ;_;

Mike Z said earlier on that they (the Skullgirls team) can't technically donate. I think that 3k is coming from others, iirc.

From Skullgirls Twitter:

@Skullgirls: #skullgirls for #evo2k broke $13,000! Look out, Smash Bros - an actual fighting game is coming for you!

Look out, Skullgirls - a game that ISN'T creepy fetish bait is going to sweep you again.

Grinin · Jan 25, 2013

So much for that good rapport between our communities.

No need to snipe like that, bro. We'll pass 'em up.

It was said that someone can't donate on behalf of the company. They never said they can't donate for personal reasons I think?

OMG wow they just used that against our community, I respect the game nonetheless, but if they can't respect our game as a fighting game, then it's too hard to respect theirs.

Just basing it off of what I thought Mike said, Crusayer. My short-term memory's pretty dim. Either way, three grand is three grand, regardless of where they're getting it from.

I'm pretty sure Mike Z is just trying to rally people together and rallied some people to do some match donations.. Also rallied dem voice actresses.

For $50 a voice actress of your choice will leave you a voice mail.

Fanboys probably dumping quite a bit for that

UltiMario · Jan 25, 2013

Looks like we need to rally another donation drive.

We raised $9000 once. We can do it again.

I'll save for the meanwhile and see if we set-up something that's better than matching $4 for $20. If not I'll donate on Sunday.

xFats · Jan 25, 2013

#TeamSkullGirls.
Hope they win that game is fun

Not going to lie, that's kind of weird.

Shimesaba · Jan 25, 2013

Where is Scar? It would be nice to have some clarity on what and when we're planning to do in response to this. Assuming they haven't matched yet, we'll be at least 4K down when they're done tonight.

I'm ready to donate again.

fatman667 · Jan 25, 2013

Alright we're behind, let's just hope our next donation drive is just/more successful than our last.

Ussi · Jan 25, 2013

@Weird comment (shoulda quoted..) Its working, so don't matter if its weird. Anime makes a big deal about VAs, wouldn't be surprised a fighting game that looks like an anime would have some affect with that method. (In Japan, it'd prob even beat bronies)

clowsui · Jan 25, 2013

lol welp

this is a WC stream

and they've got the venue till midnight PST

I -highly- doubt that we will be able to put up another 6-9k

please prove me wrong

Not legit, we've been pretty much supportive and sympathetic towards the SG community. The official SG twitter goes and basically bashes melee...yeah the money I was legitimately going to go out and buy SG with for PSN? I'm donating it. Might as well.

xFats · Jan 25, 2013

I mean skullgirls has cartoon boob. i've never seen peach or zelda boob.
skullgirls wins hands down

KrIsP! · Jan 25, 2013

You know...they do exist somewhere on the internet right?

Laijin · Jan 25, 2013

LOL hes trying to take it back. Cute.
