PSDuckie Posted September 17, 2015 Report Share Posted September 17, 2015 Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to play this year. Extra Life is something I normally look forward to, but my schedule just doesn't allow it this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrlis Posted October 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 BUMP! I'm about to put in my leave for the whole week before the game day, so that's when you can expect to see Tyrlis chattering endlessly about reward levels and marketing strategies, etc. But don't you want to join the team BEFORE I get that crazy? I thought so. C'mon friends. You don't have to play all day long. You can spread the time out over multiple days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashin Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 I'm going to be a donor, but if I go 24 hours without sleep it's just not good anymore... I'm waiting to see what kind of bribes will be offered before I donate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cryus Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Im thinking about jumping on the team this year. I have been trying to find a place to donate my hair to as its been 2 years since its last cut. It was 13 inches in a ponytail the last time my wife measured it. May use that as a "bribe" and also donate the hair to a charity of the person's choosing. So it comes out as a double bonus. I may also put up my beard on the chopping block. Its been over a year for that. Cant donate that but Im sure that there are people who hate beards enough to pay to see one gone (my wife) Unfortunately I cant take off a week even though I wish I could. But Im thinking about making mine an open house type of event for friends and family. Having a couple of playstations set up and charging something like 5 bucks to come in a play. Then I can play online if no one is here. Would help break up the hours of just sitting in a chair all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrlis Posted October 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 One of the best prizes this year is one of the cheapest, the $10 3-month XSplit license. That's what I used to stream last year and it worked great. http://www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=cms.page&id=1088 Cryus, you absolutely don't have to take the week before off - I was already planning to spend that week knocking out my last few tourist spots here in DC/Maryland/Virginia before I realized it was also the week before Extra Life.

Grieve Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 (edited) Cryus, just to reinforce what Tyrlis said. I'm not planning to take any time off work leading up to the event. Also, I think you should totally join us! Edited October 21, 2015 by Grieve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrlis Posted October 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 https://t.e2ma.net/message/8vbmh/8j2alk Hi Nathan,Today marks just 17 days before the official Extra Life 2015 Game Day. In 17 short days, a record-shattering number of Extra Lifers will take their controllers, mice and dice to help change this crazy world we live in by saving the lives of sick and injured local kids. THANK YOU for being a part of this amazing community.As you prepare for Saturday, Nov. 7th (or whichever day works for you) please remember why Extra Life exists. This all happened because of one amazing young lady, Tori Enmon. While Tori lost her battle with Leukemia in 2008, her legacy of joy, fun and love continues to grow every day through your good work to prevent this from happening to another child.The hubbub around Extra Life can be very distracting. I'll admit that it happens to me all the time. Fortunately, I have Tori to keep me in check. Pinned to a rafter in front of my desk is a picture of Tori and I, taken just days before she passed away. Her infectious smile is always in my view. I take time to look at it every day and remember her. It reminds me of you and all you're doing out there for kids like Tori, who are facing the unthinkable. Today, I ask you to consider doing the same. Below is a photo of Tori. Will you print it out today and keep it where you can see it for the next 17 days? When you get frustrated or anxious about your donation total or feel like you've asked all you can, will you take a moment to look at Tori and remember how hard she fought? When you feel too busy to ask for donations, will you give Tori a moment of your thoughts? I promise you she will motivate you.Tori never gave up and neither can you and I. Please feel free to share a picture of where ever you put Tori's photo. It could be at your desk, on your fridge, clipped to your car visor or anywhere that you know you'll see it. You can post them on our Facebook Page or Tweet them at us. We'll be gathering them up to share with Tori's family later this year. Thank you for helping to grow the legacy of a little girl from Orange, Texas.In memory of Victoria Jo Enmon,Jeromy Adams (Doc)Team Extra LifeChildren's Miracle Network Hospitals P.S. If you haven't joined the Extra Life Thunderclap campaign yet, consider donating a tweet or facebook post on Oct. 24th to help spread the word!
