Hey everyone!

3 buddies and I are gonna do 24 hours of Torchlight 2 to support the Alberta Children's Hospital under the Extra Life charity on October 20th and we could use all the help we can get! Read all about it by clicking the picture above and if you feel like throwing some money our way, hit up my page at http://www.extra-life.org/participant/MrMibz. Ignore the cheesy default script, haha.

All donations are tax deductible and you will receive a receipt.

If you're feeling nerdy want to get involved but don't have a team to join, feel free to sign up and join us at "Single For A Day"! We set a pretty aggressive goal of $1,000 so the more people contributing, the better!

Thanks for all the support guys!

You have to use a charity as an excuse to play video games for a day? Wow. :whipped:

That's pretty damn awesome.

Shame on you! You should be supporting this valiant beyonders who are clearly throwing their own personals safety to the wayside while they courageously work to support those in need!

Beyond actually made a very generous donation, so he can say whatever the hell he wants, hahaha.

Will you be streaming the event?

I would like to tune in on the 22nd hour and see how its going :thumbsup:

2 hours in and I've already beaten my personal goal, all thanks to Beyonders! You guys are amazing!

Reminds me of the good ol' LAN party days of my youth. Sven Co-op, how I miss thee.

Well said Mibz/Rage.

Let's get this guy some more donations for this worthy cause. He'll need the support to justify needing a stronger eye prescription after!

I don't know what kind of game Torchlight 2 is, but thankfully you are not playing Ski Runner. A game like that would probably be net negative (for putting people IN the hospital).

Haha, one of the guys bought some fancy-ass glasses to avoid eye strain. I've got an eye appointment next week and will be picking up some extra drops.

As for the donations, we're absolutely smashing our goal! We cracked $1,000 a few days ago so we've moved the goal up to $1,500. I want to give another huge thanks to all the Beyonders who donated. Every little bit helps (especially since my buddy is now beating me by $50) so keep 'em coming!

We will definitely be streaming the event so I'll post a link once we've got it all figured out.

Thanks again guys!

12 hours to go!

Stream will be up at http://www.twitch.tv/mibzalon

Thanks again for all the help guys. Donations will be up the entire time so if you stop by and feel sorry for us, you can always toss $10 my way, haha.
