[quote]For the last four years, thousands of gamers have joined together annually to play for 24 hours for Extra Life – a gaming marathon in support of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals®. Gamers rally friends and family members to sponsor their play. The funds they raise go to help save and improve the lives of kids at the CMN Hospital in their community.
Since 2008, our incredible players have raised more than 2 million dollars, and this year, on October 20th, 2012 we believe they will outdo themselves yet again.
We'd like YOU to join our lifesaving fight.
WHEN: October 20, 2012 @ 8am (Or choose a date that works for your schedule)
WHERE: Anywhere you like to game (Most people play from home!)
GAME/PLATFORM: Play any games on any platforms you want including mobile devices!
HOW IT WORKS: Simply ask your friends and family to sponsor your efforts. They can make a monthly pledge or a one-time gift. Then, have a seat and play games on October 20th.
WHO IT BENEFITS: Gamers select the children's hospital they want to play for during registration. In the US and Canada there are more than 170 CMN Hospitals to choose from. Players may also choose to play for hospitals in the UK and Australia.
As always you can register for Extra Life absolutely free, however we'd like you to consider the $15 Platinum option, which makes you eligible to receive lot's of goodies and prizes throughout the campaign, including the official 2012 Extra Life T-shirt when you hit $200 in funds raised.
Thank you for stopping by, and thanks for a taking a few minutes to join our fight to save kids' lives.[/quote]

alternatively i could not be lard and rely on people to essentially pay to watch me play a video game for 24 hours and give to charity with the money that would have gone to waste on the power bill.
i don't understand how this is different to regular donating. the only difference is the button has a guy playing video games next to it and the only way they'll actually make decent money is if they're internet famous or something.

it seems pretty pointless to me, like i said, unless you're well known. i don't think anyone knows who you are, so really that just comes back to me saying you're just advertising your channel in the end. but i suppose you don't really profit off it anyway, so no harm done.
