The Great Extra Life Event!
Hi everyone! This is going to be a special day on TR's Rockin, as I'm going to live-blog every hour from the Extra Life party I'm hosting. I'll update the chart with who's playing what games, and there will be hourly blog snippets with updates and photos from the party.
If you'd like to help support our fundraising efforts to raise money to fight cancer in kids, please click a name to visit their Extra Life page. All proceeds benefit the Texas Children's Hospital. Any amount will help, really - even if it's only 5 or 10 dollars. ^^
A few videos from the stream
The Gamers:
8am:
Off to a bit of a late start, but we got everything set up and started gaming. I played some Tetris DS online, while Mystic set up the N64 for some Ocarina of Time.
9am:
We've now got a party of three. More Tetris, Ocarina of Time, and now Majora's Mask. Seems like a very Zelda-centric party so far. ^^
10am:
Four people gaming. Lots of fun stuff! I will need to get some photos up soon...
Noon:
After watching lots of the Bombchu game in Ocarina of Time, the small Cucco is now known as "the Nugget".
And the sofa is apparently starting to nom on people.
It's going to be a most interesting day~
1pm:
Dokapon Kingdom time!
Mystic killed Phoenix and took all his stuff. I mean, ALL his stuff. And apparently gave him a really bad haircut too.
Silver then shanked Mystic. And he took all her money.
2pm:
Dokapon Kingdom is getting quite interesting.
Phoenix and Mystic wound up becoming wanted criminals.
I got a town of my very own after fighting a super annoying bandit guy.
Apparently if you go to heaven you die for one turn, but going to hell makes you dead for three.
4pm:
Lots of towns claimed and then stolen.... Phoenix is going to die for that. ><
We're down to about 3 towns remaining as well as the Magician boss. Hopefully we'll get this wrapped up soon!
6pm:
A bit lacking in updates, most everyone has been wrapped up with their respective games. I booted up Princess Tomato on the emulator, Mystic's been working on more Ocarina of Time, and the guys are taking a bit of a break to either watch games or fix up a computer. Mystic just totally pwned Ingo in the horse race by slightly objectionable means. I got to the Resistance base after only some super annoying Parsley Forest mazing. More less Phoenix has been playing "Legend of Mystic: Redirects to the Past".
10pm:
Back to Dokapon Kingdom!
First round of turns - Phoenix got probed by aliens and all his stats went down. Total DO NOT WANT face. >.<
Mystic had some issues with a "Magikarp" fish (it's the new Pixies!)
Silver gave money to a beggar and was visited by the "Goddess of Generosity" who "gave him a Reveal". Draw your own conclusions. >.>
Phoenix got abducted by aliens AGAIN! Another stat decrease.
1am:
"I don't like this week. It's full of rabid monkeys."
And the BigBug ate Phoenix's Down.
It's 1am and we've all gone rather silly. Energy drinks are happening. This may or may not be a good thing.
3:30am:
It's getting difficult, but it's the home stretch. Mystic crashed out on us so we're all playing solo at this point. Definitely running out of steam at this point.
6am:
Soooo very tired. Played and completed SMB2. Then played some Mario Kart and Katamari to switch it up. Only two hours to go....zzzzzz....
Next Day:
This was a really awesome event. We got very burned out near the end but managed to keep going until 8am. More difficult than I expected it to be, but lots of fun - especially with friends. Thanks to everyone for watching and helping to share the word about Extra Life. Bye for now!
