WHAT’S THE THIS THING This Friday, I’m going to be doing a 24 hour charity stream in aid of Dublin Simon Community, a charity for the homeless near where I live. You can read about them on their website here! I’ll be setting up the stream and sound-checking from 11:40pm GMT on Thursday December 19th (my birthday!) and I’ll start the games from Midnight (7pm EST, 4pm PST).

Why them in particular? In October, Dublin Simon’s van was stolen. The van contained collection buckets, hi-vis jackets, signs and other branded stuff, and neither the van nor the stuff has been recovered. Seriously, who steals from a charity?

What’s going to be in this stream? I’m going to start off by playing through Sonic Adventure 2 (hence the City Escape splash image), then Sonic Generations (if I can get it working). After that, if there’s still time, I’m going to be taking votes for the game I play! Options include Bastion, Dust: An Elysian Tail, Jet Set Radio, League of Legends, N, Portal 1 & 2 (this should be fun near the end), Red Faction Armageddon (if you really want me to suffer - I also have all the other RF games), The Stanley Parable, Super Meat Boy, Surgeon Simulator 2013 (another sleep-deprived amusement generator), and WH40k Space Marine. Obviously I won’t get through all of them, but we’ll see which ones I can tackle in the time we have! Also an option is a short drawstream! Quality not guaranteed during sleep-deprived stages.

I’m also going to be on microphone through the whole thing and in a Skype call with some people for a substantial part of it! I’d list who there’s probably going to be there, but it’s going to be so unpredictable who’s going to be there when that I’ve just included some of them in the picture above and left it at that.

Where can I donate! I have a GoFundMe page for this through which I’ll be accepting donations! The page is currently live if you want to give donations ahead of time. My target is very experimental because I have no point of reference, but please give as much as you can spare! Van theft is really annoying.

What if I can’t donate? Reblog!
