#gameblast

My very good friends WeirdFTW, Richaado, Ebak and Scarfhulu are ganging together to raise £1,000 (and beyond) for Special Effect, and they’re already past halfway and Gameblast hasn’t even begun!

Hey guys!!! Wow I am super inactive on here sorry but I just wanted to plug this; I’m currently doing a 24 hour livestream to raise money for a charity which helps provide disabled kids with gaming setups & custom controllers!!

Hey You Lovely Nerds,

My university is raising money for Special Effect by playing dnd for 24hrs. Seven of us (a DM and six players) will continuously play a game of dnd for 24 hours live on twitch from 5pm today (UK time) right through until 5pm tomorrow. Your donations go to Special Effect, a UK charity that makes and modifies video game controllers for people living with physical disabilities. For adults and kids alike, making video games more accessible allows them to be included in the fun that physically able people take for granted, and moving testimonies from the charity show how much it means to these people to have an activity they can participate in with family and friends. Your donations also impact the game! £5 lets you have sway over the playable characters, choosing backstory information, accents, or making us speak only in Beatles lyrics - your imagination is the only limit (at the DM's discretion as per). Additionally certain size donations can summon magical items, monsters ,and more. Thank you very much for your consideration towards our cause 😊 ~ J

Y'all, GameBlast is sooooooo close!! If this is your first GameBlast with us get ready to have one hell of a wacky weekend! We're doing silly things (like wearing our dresses from prom at $500 and either dancing or playing Twister 😱 in them at $1000!)

If you're unfamiliar, GameBlast is a yearly fundraiser for Special Effect, a charity in the UK that works to make games accessible to as many people as possible completely free of charge! They rely on donations to continue doing their incredible work (like helping design and test Microsoft's Adaptive Controller.)

Please tell your friends, your family, your enemies and everyone in between! Let's make this the biggest GameBlast yet! ✨

Hey everyone! SpecialEffect has been an organization close to my heart for a while, and every year I’ve seen Gameblast going on so I’ve decided to step my toe into it this year. My guild and I are looking to raise at least $100 USD for Special Effects, some of us may be streaming as well tonight and tomorrow as we attempt to do hit this goal.
