This weekend is the 5th annual Extra Life charity gaming marathon. GM Cerberus and I will be taking part and playing games for 24 hours to raise money for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. 

And we need your help! Sponsor us to help our team get closer to our $5000 fundraising goal. Just visit our fundraising page, choose a team member, click on their name and then choose "sponsor me" to donate as much or as little as you are able. Every little bit helps and 100% of the funds go directly to Children's Miracle Network Hospitals to help pay for care and treatment of sick kids. 

Huge shout-outs go to our Illy players that have joined the team to play games with us for 24 hours and raise money for their local hospitals, http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#/Player/Profile/45918" rel="nofollow - Grainne , http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#/Player/Profile/173820" rel="nofollow - Morwen Silverleaf and Massively's Beau Hindman. 

http://www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.team&teamID=8876" rel="nofollow - Leveling contest:
GM Cerberus and I will be taking part in a leveling contest. We've created accounts that we will only log in to and use on the day of Extra Life, and whoever gets the most population at the end of the 24 hour period will be declared the winner. Cheer us on and send care-a-vans to your favorite GMs on Saturday. We start playing at 8 AM CST on Saturday, Oct. 20 (13:00 Server Time). The accounts will be abandoned and the winner declared at 8 AM CST on Sunday, Oct. 21. 

Our accounts are: http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#/Player/Profile/193761" rel="nofollow - Extra Life Luna and http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#/Player/Profile/193762" rel="nofollow - Extra Life Cerberus




Place your bets!
Have a guess of what the population of the winner will be? How far do you think we can get in only 24 hours, with no extra prestige? Post your guess in a reply to this thread and the person with the closest answer (without going over) to the winner's population at the end of the Extra Life marathon will win 25 Prestige. Guesses must be posted before 8 AM CST Saturday, Oct. 20 in order to be valid entries. You have to have an active Illyriad account to win. 


Join us on Livestream!
We'll be livestreaming our kickoff on that morning at 8:30 AM CST (13:30 Server Time). Join us to cheer us on, ask questions and take part in whatever silliness we can come up with. We'll also be doing a follow-up broadcast at the 12 hour mark, at 8:30 PM CST (01:30 Server Time). 

http://www.twitch.tv/luna_illyriad" rel="nofollow - You can find our Twitch.tv channel here.

Join us for Global Chat Trivia!
If you log in to Illyriad on the 20th, and join us in Global Chat between the hours of 9:00 AM CST (14:00 Server Time) and 8:00 PM CST (01:00 Server Time) at the top of every hour, we'll be holding a trivia contest for everyone in GC. I'll ask 2 trivia questions, and the first person to answer each one correctly in GC will receive 10 Prestige. Each player account can only win one prize. 

Thanks for your support everyone who has donated so far and signed up to play. We look forward to a fun day on Saturday!

heh...I wish this were getting more attention from the Illy community, but the community is quite busy it seems--hopefully we'll see some last minute donations!

Bets for population cut off here. Any additional or edited posts after this point won't count. 

Good luck!
