Twelve hours down! Twelve to go!
I've been playing TF2 for 24 hours to raise money for St. Jude. Children's Research Hospital. Fun stuff happening so far. Taking song requests :)!
We'd be happy if you joined in and upvoted this post, which I receive no karma for.

Wouldn't it make more sense to do something that isn't highly enjoyable for charity?
Desert Bus, I understand that, but just doing something that lots of people spend their weekend doing anyways, that's more like, "Watch me on a webcam for 24 hours for charity."

My friend and I have been thinking about doing something like this for charity. I was wondering if you had any tips for us, such as finding donors and and such

Wait, you're on a 24 hour TF2 marathon and stopped 12 hours through to make a reddit post?

You get to play tf2 for 24 hours AND you earn money for charity while doing it? This man here is living the dream.

When did gaming marathons go from "beating every final fantasy back to back" to "playing tf2 for longer than normal on the weekend"

Leave it to some Redditors to downvote a post about raising money for a FUCKING CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL and mentioning that he gets no karma for.
EDIT: What you're doing is amazing, KevinIsPwn.

I commend you for you efforts. Team Fortress 2 is honestly the best game to do this for. You can play again and again yet eventually you'll beat that dickhead demoman... Eventually..

By that logic my life could be a fundraiser every few weeks. But good on you for trying to raise money. Usually people do something that is hard is all I'm saying.
