Extra Life 2017 – A Change of Plans!

If you’d like to contribute regardless of what I’m doing, please donate here! Otherwise, read on for more information.

Hello, friends!

In most years, this is the post where I would tell you that I’m running my Extra Life marathon tomorrow, as that’s the assigned Game Day for the program.

However, I have outstanding commitments for the entire weekend that will prevent me from doing the Extra Life thing on the assigned day. So this year, I’ll be moving it around a bit and am also planning on doing more than one of these. I may not be able to do anything 24-hour based on my various commitments, but I’m looking at a handful of 12-hour-plus runs.

The first one of these is going to be on November 11th, and will start at 9:00 a.m. Central. I’ll be starting Super Mario Odyssey, and will take it as far as I can. I’ll stay on Super Mario Odyssey for the marathon series as long as people continue to donate – for every $5 donated to my Extra Life campaign, I’ll find one more moon in Odyssey, up to 100%ing the game before the end of the year.

You are guaranteed I’ll get the minimum number of moons for a game clear. Money donated will go to moons past the minimum.

I’ll post more information as we get closer to the marathon and will also post more regarding additional mini-marathon dates as they are going to happen. (Expect something around Destiny 2’s first DLC release.)
