Marathon News
25
This past Friday we helped host an auction along side Fangamer to raise money for michaeljfox.org, in support of Parkinson’s research. Fangamer was entrusted with several Earthbound plushies and stickers to raise money for a charity. They made a great choice in charity and we were proud to represent.
Our two communities came together in an amazing effort and raised $10,146!!
I want to thank Fangamer for the letting us co-host the event. We had a ton of fun and look forward to working with Fangamer again in the future.
As you may or may not have known, TheSpeedGamers have had a Wiki on some free site for quite a while. Well, we now finally have one to call our own, a long time in the making. Check it out to see info about past TSG events, and where some of the oldest jokes came from.
For the moment we are looking for someone to fill the position of gaming news writer.
This will be a voluntary position, and seeing as we are a charity it would be unpaid. You will also have the opportunity to move up and write original content for the blog.
If you are interested, be sure to check out the requirements after the jump.
Alittle over an hour ago is when the Q&A wrapped up, and I must say it was very informative.
Rakuen made a very detailed list of some of the finer details mention about the HQ. I’ll drop a few of the more interesting details here.
- Membership pricing? 6 month = $12. 1 year = $20.
- Coming in and playing? ~$10 for a day pass. Will also offer hourly, $5 an hour?
- Each night of the week want to highlight different games. Nightly streaming with Shoutcasting (aka commentary).
- Marathon attendance will use a ticket system, since space might be an issue
The guys also recorded the Q&A Session on ustream, watch it after the break.
