I find myself very fortunate that I spent very, very little of my childhood in hospitals.

I've spent the past several years watching annual game-streaming charities like Extra Life, Child's Play, and the semi-annual Games Done Quick. This is the first year that I decided to participate, and I'm very thrilled to say we did a bit better than we initially thought we would.

Extra Life 2023 Game Day is this Saturday, and as I've said before, I don't have a lot of hope for meeting my $1000 goal this year.

But nonetheless, I feel I should offer some sort of incentive for donors to help me get to that goal.

So, if I somehow get to $1000 this year, I will purchase the following:

Didn't finish Sonic Delta, but we're 4 hour in, and my streaming partner is joining me for some Brutal StarCraft II co-op, and we're nearly to $200.
Keep it going! Thank you so much!

So for this year's Extra Life, I'm going to be playing four Halo games back to back until I either finish or pass out.

So, should I let the cutscenes play, or skip them when allowed?

Hey there, folks.

Finally getting back into a little bit of a writing mood after absolutely no-lifing Diablo IV for a week and a half. The game has improved a lot over the past year, but when it comes to the highest-tier of endgame content, I'm still not sure if it's going to be for me. I've built one hell of a tanky character, so debuff and one-shot mechanics in the endgame bosses are things I will never, ever accept in a game like this.

My resolution this year is simple, just like last year; make the world a better place, even if it's in small ways.

For the past two times in 2016 and 2021, my Extra Life fundraising efforts have been focused on the 24-hour Game Day, which this year falls on November 5th.

Split-second power outage due to high winds in the middle of Halo 2 brought an end to my LiveSplit time.

Two down, two to go.

Remember, highest Fimfiction donor gets a possible story commission.

Who wants to see me play Cursed Halo for the very first time? Thinking about streaming tomorrow.

I've heard about this crazy, inane mod for Halo Custom Edition for a year, and I've finally got it working.

Anyone want to see it?

And it's time! My attempt at 25 hours of Halo to raise money for Riley Children's Hospital in Indianapolis.

I have a shortlist of artists in the fandom that I like to commission every now and then. But I also like to support new artists when and where I can. So Sky Scribbles got a snazzy new scarf today!

Happy Sunday, everypony!

After a rough, mostly restless night, and spending that restless period cleaning the kitchen that had gotten away from me for the past few days, I've been trying to figure out when and how I want to try streaming semi-regularly again, without taking too much time away from writing.

I believe I'm going to try to do so with Sonic Origins late next week, which comes out on Thursday for the franchise's 31st anniversary.

Well, after planning, preparing, and lining up schedules, it's looking like my Hot Ones Challenge is happening tomorrow evening.

After that, I'm hoping it won't take very long to edit into something watchable. I figured this way was better than doing a spice challenge live for Extra Life 2021, where I hastily angled my webcam and it was 20 minutes of my stomach and the table.

For a couple reasons.

First, the leak. Until all four final episodes have aired, either here or across the pond, I want to make sure I don't run into any spoilers. When I've watched all four remaining episodes in order, I'll be back.

Special thanks to Phazon for reminding me that I had not uploaded this yet.

Took me an hour to edit and splice down, because my streaming partner wouldn't pull his damn pants up, and I'm not interested in showing you folks plumber's crack.

But here it is, because I'm pretty sure only 2 people saw it live.

This year I will pick something a bit more... Sensible.

I am open to suggestions.

We're almost right on schedule at the moment. Sonic Delta complete at the 5-hour mark.

Freedom Planet up next!

Thanks for watching and donating if you are able!

More than a week early, too.

Now to get some wings, set up a spot to film, and line up the free time of the co-workers who want to come host/be here for this donor-inflicted culinary torture.

Well, Extra Life 2023 is in just under three weeks, and I've spent most of today practicing the games I'm going to marathon, as well as finalizing my food and drinks.

I intend to continue my soda fast (110 days and counting!), so I'll be doing water and if I need caffeine, cold brew coffee. Snack-wise, I'm planning on bananas (potassium) and dark chocolate (again, for the small amount of caffeine).

Last time I had an Extra Life donation incentive, I had completely forgot to post it until I was reminded that I hadn't.

So just keeping you folks updated; I won't have my donors think I'm not a man of my word.

The hot sauces have been ordered.

Well, I'm going to try my hardest to get a chapter update out by tonight, because I'm going to hopefully be able to get a solid night's sleep before things kick off at 8 AM EST.

At that point, I'll be trying my best to do 25 hours of Halo. I'll be posting blog updates throughout the day, likely when I complete a game and go onto the next one, along with links to watch and donate.

Good morning, awesome people!

It's Game Day!

We're starting off with Sonic Delta Reloaded, a fanhack that crams the first four Sonic games into one.

Once again, 100% of donations go to Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis! This year, it's a bit tougher; money's been tighter for everyone, and I'm starting Game Day at just 20% of the way there instead of 70%.
