For those of you who don't know, ExtraLife is a gaming charity that serves to raise money for children's hospitals. While they hold a variety of events, they usually take place in the form of 24-hour gaming marathons. Well, GiantBomb is running a team for the ExtraLife event taking place on October 20th, and I've signed up for their team. That said, I'm just making this lovely little blog to let you guys know. Donations are much appreciated, and if you donate now, I promise to let you live.

Kidding. Mostly.

Seriously though, donations do help. Even if I don't reach my goal by the end of the 24 hours.

Jury's still out on whether or not I'll be livestreaming. I haven't looked into it yet, and I don't even have the proper equipment. However, I am hoping to keep people updated as to what I'm playing via twitter (see links below).
