We are working on some additional ways to help raise funds for viOlet. Check out the T-shirt ideas and his new official logo!

7up Logo - For those that do not know.. viOlet is a huge fan of 7up soda and those tuning into the stream have labeled him the 7up Zerg. Here is his new player logo!

Here are the T-shirts. These would be sold to help raise funds for his training camp and trip to states and MLG Providence.
we will have more details as they become available.

Let me know what you think.. there probably wont be many changes, as we need to get them ordered ASAP.. but if you have a really good idea or suggestion or comment.. please feel free to share it!

Thank you all who have tuned in for support.

I not sure you'd want to be selling anything with the 7up logo, since it would probably be trademark dilution.

viOlet's my new favorite streamer! He's always on!! And he strikes a good balance between strong play and entertaining play (Just saw him Spine crawler rush a forge FE Toss. It was awesome.) I'm gonna be sad when MLG Providence is over and I can't watch him as much anymore. =(

Eh, it probably looks like it could be a type of 7up product to the average consumer.

But! after doing some research, even though you're making money from it, it seems that only the offensive trademark parodies actually get in any trouble. So it shouldn't be a problem at all. I do personally like the idea, btw.

ya.. its a 'representation' that a consumer can relate to a popular product..but the graphic is not exactly the same. I will confirm this with my art director..but he will most likely tell me the same thing.. that it will not be an issue at all. You can not trademark the # 7 or the letters up.

thanks for the insight though .. for sure.

He's headquartered at college station? That means Violet attends Texas A&M? Mind = blown I could drive over there within a couple hours and see him.

No I live in College Station and he is staying with me for 2 weeks before competing at MLG Providence to train and get acclimated.

Okay there is a difference, I thought I was just making an ignorant post (which I was) but would have been exciting if it had been true

Damn good player. I was shocked the other day when one of the CSN guys had to tell viOlet he needed to take a break from SC2 to sleep because he had been playing for over 16 hours! viOlet didn't even seem phased. He looked more dissappointed that he was being told he needed to quit playing for that session. Thats some dedication if I've ever seen it.

LOL, I just watched on stream where someone asks him if he wants to eat food before playing his match in the NA playhem daily and hes like noty. Hes gonna be one of those guys that dies from too much sc2. But seriously nuts level of dedication out of this guy.
