STREAM IS COMPLETE! Thanks for coming by, everyone. We've got a bunch of videos on the channel from the livestream, so check them out [here](https://www.twitch.tv/kongregatelive/videos/all). Thank you so much, everyone. We reached a grand total of $10,690, after a last minute $50 donation as we closed out the stream, so great work everyone. I knew you could do it, and I think we'll aim even higher next year! Hello Kongregate Community! I come to you with exciting news. This year, for the first time ever, Kongregate is going to be running an Extra Life event to benefit children's hospitals as the opening event in our [10/10 Would Play Again](http://www.kongregate.com/pages/10th-anniversary) celebration!  **What is Extra Life?** In their own words, Extra Life is a 24-hour charity gaming marathon to support Children's Miracle Network Hospitals that has raised more than $22 million for local hospitals. Individuals or teams pledge to play games for 24 hours straight, and then their friends and family donate to support them! The money all goes towards buying expensive equipment, funding important research and specialized training, and helping cover costs for kids who can't afford the expensive care they need. A marathon isn't as fun without seeing it happen, so we're also going to stream the whole thing from the offices for everyone to see! You can watch our stream on [our Twitch channel, Kongregate Live](http://twitch.tv/kongregatelive)! **When is this happening?** Our event will start on Saturday, November 5th, 2016 at 10:00AM Pacific Time, and will end around 10:00AM Pacific Time on Sunday, November 6, 2016. **Who is participating?** Our team is all Kongregate staff who are interested in raising money for childrens' hospitals. Check out [our Kongregate Donations page](http://www.extra-life.org/participant/kongregate), as well as our full [team page](http://www.extra-life.org/team/kongregate)! **What games are you going to play?** We have a list of our own ideas like XCOM and Codenames and Duck Game and maybe even D&D, but we'd be glad to also consider your suggestions! Feel free to post any ideas for games that would be fun to watch us play. **How can I help?** We'd love to have your donations! Visit our [Kongregate Donations page](http://www.extra-life.org/participant/kongregate) and donate as much or as little as you like. Remember that all the money goes straight to the hospitals, not to us. :) Please include your Kongregate username in any donation notes (even if the note is only to us), so that we know who's helping out, and so we can get any rewards/awards to the right people! If you donated but forgot to include your username, please [send me a PM](http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/IAmTheCandyman/private_messages?focus=true) with the name you used to donate and the amount you donated, and I can make a note of it so that you get credit! We'd also love your ideas for games to play, as well as Kongregate-related fan art that you've made over the years! We'll make some time between games to show off art you've made, and display your username, so please share your creations in this thread! **I have a question or suggestion for you!** Free free to post here in the thread with any questions or suggestions! **What else are you doing to celebrate Kongregate's 10th anniversary?** I'm glad you asked! Visit our [10th anniversary page](http://www.kongregate.com/pages/10th-anniversary) to follow along with events as they happen.

## Updates * 10/7 Added donor rewards and team donation page. Updated streaming time. * 10/18 Broke above $4k with a VERY generous $1337 donation! Added request for fanart. * 11/3 Added schedule and Twitch link * 11/4 Added donation leaderboard. Added Greers to Codenames event!

## Rewards Be sure to include your username in the donation notes, so that we know who to give any relevant rewards to! * If you donate $5 or more, we'll give you a profile award on Kongregate. * If you donate $50 or more, we'll give you a shinier profile award on Kongregate. * The top 3 donors will get to work with jmtb02 and Jimp to design a Kongpanion! * The top 10 donors will get a t-shirt prize pack! We'll contact you via Kongregate for shipping info. On top of that, we're collecting ideas for how to celebrate if we make it to our goal of $10,000 in donations. We'll pick our 10 favorites, and if we hit the goal, we'll let you vote which one of the 10 we should do! If you have ideas on how to celebrate hitting the goal, post them in the forum thread. We'll also have various donation targets during the stream, like getting to name characters or make game decisions for us or making us play a game with oven mitts on or making us do other silly things, so keep an eye out for any future reward updates here! If you've donated enough to get a profile award, we'll be sending those all out at once after the event, once we've collected them all up. :)

Heh. Make some actual suggestions! You can add more in a later post, and I'm not likely to come back to check back on earlier posts. :) What do you think we should play? Board games and video games are both *on the table*, pun slightly intended.

Whoa CMan you put *your* personal page in the main post! No fair D:< *Edit - thanks for removing it :)

so 24 hours gaming no sleep?

> *Originally posted by **[DigisPanties](/forums/1/topics/662943?page=1#10709708)**:* > so 24 hours gaming no sleep? That's the idea, if we can last. Some people need to sleep or have places to be, but most of us plan to go all 24 hours!

I'm confident enough not to have to post my personal page here. (also I haven't finished setting up the profile)

DnD in only in the maybe territory? :-( DnD (or any tabletop) with a creative team has infinite potential so it would be something that sounds like it would be super fun to watch (especially if there was a kleptomaniac loot monger among one of the players). If the staff have access to a Wii/WiiU, Dokapon Kingdom might be an interesting game to play due to it being specifically designed to ruin friendships and promote wanton malicious acts of blackmail, thievery, and the goal of not winning by climbing above the other players, but rather avoiding losing by dragging the winning players down into the mud with you. You can even scribble graffiti onto the players you defeat or literally turning their hair into crap.

i vote kong match or exceed donations that kong users put forth if any of the kong team falls asleep

Oh gods, FlyingCat knew exactly what I was thinking. Dokapon and [tabletop RPG of choice]. Dokapon Kingdom is a very fast way to make you hate everyone you know. Just saying~ It's incredibly long though, so for your own sake do like a 20 week Normal Mode game at most. Also, let's see, for actual suggestions...hm...Terraria/Minecraft, maybe?

I vote for EBF4, maybe. ###### If it was for me, I'd straight play AITG for 24 hours lol

um i wish u add ContractWars online game bec i nearly play it everyday all day like many others.

24 hr MARDEK 3 speedrun?

Go on a badge hunt. I once got 115 badges in 1 day.

The problem would be finding time to get someone to put together an entire campaign for us, as well as figuring out how much can really get done in a relatively short session. There are a lot of things trying to make their way into the stream, and D&D takes quite awhile to play. I'm not sure it would work well for short sessions. But we'll see! > If the staff have access to a Wii/WiiU, Dokapon Kingdom might be an interesting game to play due to it being specifically designed to ruin friendships and promote wanton malicious acts of blackmail, thievery, and the goal of not winning by climbing above the other players, but rather avoiding losing by dragging the winning players down into the mud with you.

We have "get as many badges as possible in X amount of time" as a potential idea. :D

You guys should have RANDOM DANCING too just like in iCarly to stay up.

Ooh, Contract Wars and Freefall Tournament could be fun.

By the way, on a scale of one to ten, what are the odds that there will be Kongdoges at the event on stream? Or better yet, Kongcats (especially the one that I believe sleeps in a toilet or something like that?) The Smash Bros series seems like another good one since it's fairly accessible, and it's easy to decide how long one wants to play it, and it's pretty easy to pick up and play or drop. Also, the ultimate, omega, 11/10, best game ever created should probably be mentioned. Abobo's Big Adventure where you don't know what you're playing, but you like it nonethless.
