Extra Life 2024

The short version:

I’ll be playing games for 24 hours (again! it’s my tenth year!) spread across November 2nd and 3rd to benefit Children’s Hospital here in Pittsburgh. You can support my efforts by GOING HERE TO CONTRIBUTE A PLEDGE. You should also be able to watch my live feed of the gaming day on my youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/rickreynolds1969. I should be streaming (roughly) between 9:00am EST and 9:00pm EST both days.

The longer version:

Every year the Extra Life organization has a gaming day where people pledge to play games of any kind (video games, board games, card games, whatever) for a 24 hour period. People can pledge money to support these gaming efforts and the monies collected go to help a local Children’s Hospital.

It’s kinda like a walk-a-thon or other such fund-raiser – you pledge money towards a good cause in a way that also supports the efforts of a friend.

Consistent with how I’ve done things the past couple of years, I’ve decided that I’m getting too old for this … uh, stuff. I’ll again break up the 24 hours of gaming across a Saturday and Sunday of a single weekend. This has worked well for me so I’m sticking with this plan moving forward.

Based on previous years, I’ve set a goal of $1500. That should really be attainable. I’m not an overly competitive guy, so I’m not on a crazy campaign to out-do previous years’ amounts (although that would be great), I’m just wanting to do something fun that benefits kids. I’d love it if you would sponsor me by https://www.youtube.com/user/rickreynolds1969.

Thanks so much!
Rick
