DeWalt Fundraiser Stream Feb 8-9!
11 years ago
This week is going to be interesting. I'm working with Vinci and Arty and we're coming up with all sorts of fun things for this weekend. We hit our first goal of $1000 already, which means I will be donning the Kigurumi again and this time there will be photographic evidence. If we hit $2000, Arty will dress in drag and sing "Let it Go" from Frozen, this will include heels and fake boobs. Yes, really. If we hit 3K we'll work on a video where the voice actors for Vinci and Arty will play Borderlands 2 as the characters. (And as they are well versed on said characters, I assure you that it will be comedy gold. Personally my money is on Vinci shooting Arty in the ass at least once.) The video will be put up on Youtube for anyone to watch at their leisure.
We're discussing other rewards like having Valentine do a recording of 'Happy Birthday' for you or a friend of your choice and offering custom Vinci and Arty ringtones (Imagine Arty going "Phoooooooooone!" every time your phone rings) or Vinci and Arty on your TomTom GPS telling you where to drive.
To hear the voice actors in action, go here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7158667/
The top donor will receive original art from both Vinci and I, and anyone who donates (and provides a way to contacting them) will be entered for a random chance to win some Vinci originals.
We're also going to be taking shots during the marathon. For $25 I will drink a shot of alcohol or Arty will drink a "Flaming Gilroy Suicide Shot" which is a shotglass full of Sriracha sauce and a full raw clove of garlic. For $50 we both will take a shot.
We have a ton more incentive ideas, but that's the status of them at this very moment.
For the game itself, I was thinking of starting off with Injustice, Gods Among Us as a warmup, also some Multiplayer of Dead Space 3 with either Arty or Sirfie, perhaps some Portal 2 Co-Op, and I've been nudging Arty to play Stanley Parable for you guys. We're open for suggestions, but keep in mind that not all games stream well so if we decide not to play one it might be because it doesn't work.
Also, we will be re-purposing the dual stream page for this, which means you can switch between my audio and his for multiplayer depending on who you want to hear, but you can see it all from both our perspectives.
And finally, the big thing...
There will, of course, be multiplayer. Two Payday 2 streams and a L4D2 Vs Match. The slots in them are going to be auctioned off here starting Monday much in the same manner of a YCH auction. Six slots for L4D2, and four for Payday 2, you'll be one of two people playing in two different matches with Arty and I. If you win, just donate your winnings to the donation site instead of paying us directly (although if the latter is easier we can work with you) and you'll get your spot. The auction starts on Monday and ends on Friday!

I think it's great that you do all this charity work. Best of luck.


The Dewalts are really good friends of mine, and not only the best parents I know but also good sane people who try their best. I seem to be good at fundraising money with video games, so why not use that to help some friends who really need it, I say.

You and Arty are going to be drinking shots for every $25? Careful, we don't want to have to start a fundraiser to pay for the medical bills for your alcohol poisoning and Arty's massive ulcer that dissolved his stomach and esophagus.

Increasing the signal so that others can know of this.

Uh how about if you reach $2K Arty "doesn't" dress in drag and sing "Let it Go" from Frozen, and doesn't include heels and fake boobs.


That's what will happen if we hit a higher goal ;)
