Posted Image Greetings. I realize that this is a bit early, but registration is open so we need to get moving now. Last year, as some of you may know, Leonhart and myself participated in a global fundraising effort for the organization Extra-Life, which supports the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, where we did (as close as humanly possible anyway) a 24 hour gaming marathon and asked for donations. The event was a huge success, I myself raised over 150.00 and the organization as a whole raised over 1.2 Million Dollars. The time has come for us to beat that record. On October 20th, 2012, Extra-Life, in association with some of gaming's biggest names like Microsoft, Playstation, Nintendo, etc, will attempt to shatter the previous record. Major gaming organizations are already on board, like G4, Kotaku, IGN, etc. I have created a team for The Angels of Fire. All you need to do is sign up, and on October 20th, the fun begins. You can even choose a local hospital, or for our international players, contribute to a generic international fund. If you can't donate money yourself, please sign up for the team and commit some time to doing what you already do: Gaming. I will be expanding the TS server on this day to allow more people in, and I'm currently looking in to hosting a web radio station for the event. Thanks.

Bee and I would definitely like to join the AoF team. Just got a few questions. Does it matter what you play? (System, game, etc.) How do they monitor the time you spend playing... vs. turning a game on and walking away? |

No, it doesn't matter which game or system. Last year, I played several Single Player games, FFXI, and JA. They don't really monitor it. It's on the Honor System. |

I want to do something but I'm not playing JKA anymore. However, I'm willing to stream myself playing on the SC2 ladder for those 24 hours. |

Maybe I'll actually raise some money this year! At least I can start putting out feelers now rather then later. Joined the AoF team. |

6 members so far (including myself). Thanks a lot folks, and great job to ID and Vultax so far who have already raised 25 and 27 dollars, respectively. If you want to get even more involved, there are tons of resources available to you. Everything from posters to hang up at work/school, to photoshoppable images, radio/podcast adverts, and Youtube videos. You can also order a T-Shirt for 10.00 and become part of the Street Team, to advertise the event/charity while you're out and about. I just ordered mine. Resource Kit |

Bump. If you haven't signed up yet, please do so, and start spreading the word to collect donations. |

Hey folks, we've been given a challenge by the Extra Life team that I think we can all meet: Raise $25.00 by this Saturday If you've already raised $25.00, cool. Raise another 25. Remember to keep posting your donation link, use the paper forms for checks/cash, etc. There will be a conference call tomorrow night at 7pm EST for anyone who is interested. Details here Edited by Novus'Olm, Oct 3 2012, 03:47 PM.
