The 24 hour gaming marathon for charity

[Sapience]

Just remember as the 24 hours gets near the end and your head starts bobbing down dangerously close to that coffee and pie (caffeine and sugar) your better half keeps you stocked up on that you made over $565 and hour for the kids......keep going and be sure to take her out to a nice dinner ............ after you recover.

Combined team Turbine has made over $1000 and hour - I call that amazing.

Oh believe me, she's getting taken care of. She's the one making the Legolas costume and is the one going to have to deal with seeing me with 0 facial hair for the first time ever. She's already said she can deal with it, just won't be looking at me until I grow it back (Fortunately November is Movember! Grow facial hair for charity!).

A representative from BCH called today to congratulate me on being the top fundraiser and Team Turbine for being the top team fund raiser for Boston Children's Hospital. I interrupted to to let her know I wasn't done. That there is a $15,000 goal and what the incentive is. I told her, there's over two days left. That's 48+ hours of fund raising to go!

So the question becomes... do we stop at $15k? If we have time, I don't see why we should. Can we make it to 16,000? the original $17,500 beard goal? Maybe at $15,250 we should switch everyone's "hero" title to "Beard-Banisher" Just to prove we can go over. Or maybe there's a dollar amount that's worth making a video during the shave. Go to a barber, make it a production.

We have time and time as they say...is money.
