Alright, know it's early but my sleep schedule was goofy today and so I'm starting up my 24 hour run now until 10pm EST tomorrow.  Good luck & good gaming all!

EDIT: make that $212

Over $8400.  Great job guys!  If I was a hat guy like Zwill, it'd be off to you right now.

It is, at long last, over. It was rough here, at the end, but me and The 7 Stars of Virtue toughed it out and achieved level 31 over a 24 hour period from level 1.

Special thanks to:

The Cape Radio for supplying tunes and good cheer.
Ascendant, Pogoman, Ren Inferno, DJ Shecky, Lollipop Dreams, Sonnet, VV, Fred, Whimsy, and many others for teams and company during the 24 hour ordeal.
Extra Life for organizing and creating this initiative in the first place.
Children's Miracle Network for just being plain awesome.

ALL OF YOU, for all of your support, well wishes, and for being the best online gaming community in the world.




...I'm gonna go pass out now.

You've earned it. A big thanks to all of you noble Extra Life troopers. It means a lot to a lot of people, and I hope that's comforting as you get some much-deserved rest.

Curse you Real life Job!  I could have helped!  I could have been a contender. 

For those who were part of it.   BRAVO!  *Loud cheers*
One way or another... Heroes will fly again!

I did it.  8am AST to 8am AST.  I logged out on the steps of City Hall holding a torch.  I did not change my costume back from the Tiny Pepsiman one that we held our rally in.



I livestreamed the whole thing too.

Well except for the last half hour at the end where my router decided it had enough and I didn't want to reboot my computer to get the stream going again, I only had half an hour left!  But those in the Extra Life Channel were there with me right to the end!

Thanks to all those who sponsored me!!!

SQUEEEEEEE
