Shamoozal's NES Holiday Marathon for Child's Play
solidefy | 10:56 AM on 12.12.2008 1 comments


Back in July, Shamoozal (Creators of the GFGames Web Cartoon) held a charity event for Child's Play. We received tremendous support from sites like Destructoid, among others which helped us to surpass our goal of $1000.

Tomorrow we'll be holding our Holiday Marathon for Child's Play. I know that these marathons are pretty common these days, but we're going to try and make it an entertaining event with a variety of things going on. The event begins at 12PM Noon EST and will continue through Midnight.

Over the course of 12 Hours we'll be playing through some classic NES titles, as well as auctioning off game-related artwork, doing drawings for prizes and recording the latest episode of our podcast live over ustream.tv.

PLUS! If you donate $5 to Child's Play (through the ChipIn widget on our site) you'll be entered in a drawing to win one of these 3 prizes:

1. Prince of Persia (Winner chooses platform: XB360, PS3 or Steam)
2. Chrono Trigger (NDS)
3. 12 Month Gold Membership to Xbox Live

The drawings will take place around 10PM EST, donations must be in ahead of time to be eligible.

Here's a link to the trailer for the event

We really could use all the support we can get to promote this thing. We're on a shoe-string budget and every cent is going directly to the charity. There's more information available at our site: http://www.shamoozal.com

Thanks for reading and watching!

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?

Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
