Hey all! As some of you may know, I've always been a huge Borderlands fan. When they announced the release of Borderlands 3 earlier this year, I knew around this time I'd likely spend a couple days binge-ing it. I thought it would be a cool idea to put my playing to good use, and do an 'Extra Life' fundraiser livestream over the release weekend.
For those who don't know, Extra Life is a non-profit organization where folks can sign up to participate and raise money by gaming, similarly to how someone might pledge money to someone running a marathon. A lot of folks do it on one 24-hour marathon session, but that sounded so painful and I'd be so hard to manage with work in between, so I decided to split it up into three 8-hour days over the weekend. Today is the last day and I've already reached my goal, but the goal was really just an arbitrary number; any donations (even over the threshold) still go to sick children.
Come hang out for a bit today and say hello, and donate if you're able! If you can't, no worries; even your presence, or a share on your social media of choice, is still a huge deal. The way Twitch works, more folks in stream equals more eyes on the cause, to either donate to my personal campaign or even inspire others to start their own.
So either way, I hope to see some Steemians in there today! I'm running my stream today from 4pm to 12am EDT. My Twitch stream is embedded in my Extra Life page, so you should be able to watch my stream from both. But I'll link both pages below anyways. Much love to anyone who can come through!
