Hello all,
@heofredhair, most often in game as Thomas Kelso. I wanted to take a moment to log in here and mention that every year for the past 3 years, I've participated in a fundraiser called Extra Life. For those not familiar with it, Extra Life is a 25 hour gaming marathon where gamers of all types come together to show that, as a group, we can make a positive difference in the world by raising money for Children's Miracle Network hospitals. Each person who signs up chooses a hospital for their money to go to and raises as much as they can. I play each year for Doernbecher Children's Hospital in Portland Oregon. I play because a baby was born in my family a few years back that was addicted to heroin at birth, and wanted to do something to help children like him who really need it.
As part of my efforts to raise money, I stream the event on Twitch TV at twitch.tv/iamkelso. In addition, this year, I am running a raffle with some prizes that I thought might be of interest to STO players. I have some Steam codes for games, the Decipher Star Trek Roleplaying Game Player's Guide, the Star Trek Deck Building Game, and a Copy of Amarillo Design's game Federation Commander: Klingon Border. All the details can be found at
www.extra-life.org/participant/iamkelso. Every $2 dollars donated earns you 1 raffle ticket. Please put "raffle" in your comment on the donation so I can be sure to count your donation towards raffle tickets.
I can also be reached here via private message with any questions, comments, or any other thoughts. If you want to donate codes or items to the raffle, private message me so we can work out details. Please, my fellow players, if you can, please help me help some sick kids. I appreciate your time.
