Extra life is a 24h gaming marathon run by sarcasticgamer.com
On the 16th of October hundreds of gamers from around the world come together to play games for 24 hours starting at 8:00am there local time.
I am one of them gamers!

All money raised goes to your local Children's Miracle Network Hospital.(In my case it goes to Our Lady's Children's Hospital, Crumlin, Dublin, Ireland)

please check out the Official website @ http://extralife.sarcasticgamer.com

Sign yourself up for the event @ https://www.hospitalshelpingkids.org/ExtraLife/createaccount.aspx
If a couple of FFradio people sign up we could make a team!

if you want you could donate money to my effort @ https://www.hospitalshelpingkids.org/ExtraLife/m.aspx?i=181188E95E92E3B+7

If nothing else at least tell your friends and family about the event.


Thank you.

There isn't enough coffee to keep me awake that long these days Its sad because I used to be able to do stuff like this, but now I crash about 3am no matter how hard I try!

[Tebian-DJ]

Well at 48 i go to bed early now days but i still get up in time for you guys at 4am. I used to go to sleep early just to play FFXI with my friends in Netherlands.

Broadcasting is different, no way i could do longer then 6 hours live.
