Subscribe Option Now Available for ATP Fans! $2.99/month
Aris ON Sunday, June 9, 2013 at 11:12PM In November of 2010 I started this web site because the legendary SDTekken.com and IamTekken.com sites were slowing down and I myself wanted to see more Tekken related content out there. Since then I've been involved with countless projects in an attempt to see Tekken thrive. My life, just like anyone else's, has had its ups and downs both in the gaming world and in my personal life and I would be lying if I said I haven't considered dropping it all and "growing up." My main motivation to continue with avoidingthepuddle.com is not only the fans of the site, but Tekken fans in general. Lets face the facts, we play a game that needs it's community to keep it alive. Tekken needs sites like Level Up Your Game, Tekken Zaibatsu, and SDTekken so that fans have a place to go and get their Tekken fix!
After heavily considering the future of this site, I decided to try a new subscriber model in an attempt to raise some money to pay for site expenses as well as streaming and capture equipment. For those of you out there who really enjoy the content that is provided by ATP, you now have the option to subscribe for some added bonuses, which are listed below.
Subscribe $2.99/month
- Your money goes directly towards the purchase and maintenance of streaming/capture equipment, as well as pays for web site expenses for avoidingthepuddle.com.
- Enter a monthly drawing to submit your match for analysis on Youtube.
- Receive personalized advice as well as priority during Q&A streams.
- Enter a monthly drawing to play online with Aris.
- Enter various monthly drawings for sticks, T-shirts and more!
- Subscriber's suggestions on what type of content is produced by ATP will take priority. Suggest anything from tutorials, match footage, reviews or even which guest we have on ATP Live! (Thursdays at 8pm PST on Twitch)
Words can't convey my thanks to all the supporters that have contributed in the past. Fans, friends who have helped run and maintain this site, and even people who hate my guts but love Tekken are the main reason this web site exists. Let's hope that avoidingthepuddle.com will "play on" for years to come.

do we also get the bonus as a donater? i dont like subscribes if money is needed xD
How do you even know who has subscribed?
@Hatman, Sorry, that option isn't available on Paypal and Twitch wouldn't give me a subscribe button. (though I'm not sure they have that option either.
@Ashes, though donations are welcomed and very much appreciated, they are separate from subscriptions. However, if you would send me an email, I'll figure out a way to do it in your case. aris@avoidingthepuddle.com
@Reality, I'm planning on putting a list of subscribers in the description of my twitch channel as well as someplace on the site. Going to get all that together asap.
Thanks for all the support amigos.

I NEVER do things like this. But the amount is small, and the cause is right. Count me in.
I'm with Cyrox, I don't earn much but i'm always on this site, if Aris stops eventually so will the scene plus his stuff is always good for a laugh, subscribed!
Subscribed. The amount of Joy this site has brought to me watching just a random Aris online tilt-session is worth it alone. Can't even count how many times I've visited something like the frame database for tekken alone. If you play Tekken, visit this site frequently, and don't think all its given to you is worth 3 dollars you can EABOD's honestly.
Hey amigo, I posted your iconic match to youtube!

Sorry I couldn't keep the site going. It's not that I didn't want to. I just didn't have the time :( !
