My cousin, my brother, a bunch of our friends, and I got together and decided that we would do our part... Well, being the nerds we are, we played DnD until we came up with a suitable idea. After a while, we decided to become a group to play video games for charity. We've done four so far, and this is our first year. We've played all the Zelda games in one marathon (which we are going to repeat in March one the One Year Anniversary), all the Final Fantasy games in our last marathon and we've played some other fun games too. Just thought I'd let the world know about us... It was on my mind... But hey, if you ever want to know more about it, I'll talk to you

I have never understood why people doing odd things inspires normally uncharitable folk to donate money- a show of dedication to inspire dedication or something?, but hey if it works, good on ya. :)

Was this the one I watched on the live feed recently? The FF marathon? I'll assume a 'no' as you're calling yourselves unknown.

Hmm. Sounds like The Speed Gamers...

Anywho, it's a good idea, doing gaming marathons for charity. Good Luck with your future marathons.

We support various charities, but so far we've done the Multiple Sclerosis Organization, the Multiple Melanoma Foundation, and Child's Play

You should think of some more Multiple organizations.
