Vault 131 2018
Donation protected
Remember that fantastic party room that launched at ConVergence 2015? Did you meet us at 2DCon in 2016? Did we satisfy your hunger with our hot "dogs" in 2017? Would you like to see us again in 2018? Do you want 2019 at the Hyatt to be amazing? Well, here is your chance to help make the party happen, be part of the team, and get some fun perks in the process!
The Vault
The inhabitants of Vault 131 opened their doors in 2015 to share the unique libations they had spent the last 100 or so years perfecting. This year, that same talented team of entertainers hopes to satisfy your thirsts and stimulate your senses in all new ways! But don't fret wastelanders, the atomic blast will never fail you. Running such an awesome party is no easy (or cheap) task, so help make our elaborate dreams for the future a reality!
Some of Vault 131's hopes and dreams:
Our state of the art Vault-Tec frozen beverage genator needed to be re-engineered after the demands of the previous few years. We managed to locate the necessary components, but it deplete our cap collection to do so.
Our low waste facility is a little confusing for the average wastelander wandering in and it's always a battle to protect our re-usable beverage ware. As a result, roughly half of our cups have either wandered off or been accidentally disposed of. We need to resupply our stock for this year.
We introduced hot "dogs" to our wasteland wanderers last year and they were a huge hit. While we cannot offer them this year due to CVG policy changes, we do hope to bring them back next year.
Protecting our dwellers from atomic radiation was no easy task, but the Vault-Tec personell did a marvelous job. Unfortunately, that same insulation holds in all that heat you wastelanders track in with you! Each year we strive to improve our climate control systems.
Our engineers are actively exploring ways to improve the reliability and efficacy of our lighting systems and we can't wait to share the next generation with you.
We are painstakingly testing and adjusting our products for maximum desirability to the varied palates of ConVergence's wastelanders. This year, the policies at the DoubleTree have resulted in our stills being locked down for the duration of the convention. However if you have your own hard libations, we'll be offering some tasty and creative non-alcoholic options you can embellish if you desire. We'll have two slushie machines running and a low sugar option on ice.
Many more tasks and creative improvements will be undertaken as we let our imaginations run wild and we prepare the make 2019 at the new location as awesome as our old room. The limitations will be dependent upon our funding.
What do you get?
Let's face it; in the post apocalyptic world, nothing (including help) comes for free. So what will you get for your aid, despite our admiration and appreciation? I'm glad you asked:
The return of your favorite party room and watering hole! Goodies, ribbons, special privileges, and karma boosts. All donors receive our "Party Bringer" ribbon (pictured above). For the most generous supporters, you can count on the envy and admiration of your peers at your SPECIAL social status. Many will leave their legacy behind on the very walls of our vault! See last year's t-shirt design below!
All perks will be sealed into a package with your name on it and available for pickup during open hours. For donors gaining pre-bar access, their packages will be available for pick-up an hour prior to official open.
*Please note that donor ribbons and other goodies are only available to friends and team members contributing prior to CVG's kickoff.
Risks & Challenges
There's a lot of work and responsibility involved with bringing such a fantastic party to ConVergence. While almost all of our team members return year to year, many have to cut back their investment (either fiscally or time-wise).
We're positive that with your help we'll be able to return with a bang and be even more impressive than previous years!
Other Ways You Can Help
If you can't contribute money, you can still help the effort:
- Spread the word!
- Volunteer as a worker, builder, musician, artist, or teamster.
- Follow Wheaton's Law while visiting our room: "Don't be a dick."
- Contact us through Facebook or GoFundMe
*In the case of any unforseen events that should prevent the party from happening (death of the entire team, atomic blasts, acts of God, cancellation of ConVergence), 100% of funds received will be donated to charity. Any unused funds will roll over for next year's budget or likewise be donated.
