Since things are slowing down a bit I think our next two milestones are $70,000k (nice round number) and $70,246.80 which would be 2% of the total Child's Play raised last year.


Well, at last look we are at 1.96% of last years total.:)


Keep holding that line people.

When I first came to this forum I was looking for people who thought the ending to Mass Effect 3 was lacking, I was looking for people who wanted to change that and people who wanted to see it changed into something more meaningful and the promises made to us be fufilled. What I found instead was a renewed sense of pride in the gaming community.

Over the years I began to think that the gaming community was declining into something I didn't want to be a part of. Angry, harsh, disrespectful people were all I saw when I looked through most forums. I began to regret taking up the mantle of a gamer, of spending so much time and money following something that was turning into nothing but a mass of anger and hatred. Then I found you guys. People putting forth money to a good cause, a good cause that gives a lot of money from a lot of good people, even if we don't succeed. I read almost 70 pages of this topic and never felt that this was nothing but a flame, I saw individuals with ideas, people calmly voicing their opinion despite those who would say what they're doing is wrong. I took pride in being a member of the gaming community again.

No matter if the ending gets changed or not you've given a person hope for the future of something he would dare call his lifestyle, you've given hope to children, hope to people that our voices will be heard, and that we will not be walked upon.

We will not go quietly, we will not give up, and we will Hold The Line.

I donated like... a few days ago, but figured I'd let people know.

EDIT: I donate to Child's play every year. This time, I just happened to do it through the Retake movement.

Kindly asked for a refund at the origin store for Mass Effect 3. I will buy the game again, if they fix the ending. However, 1/2 of refund goes to Childs Play.

So I happened to see someone reply to another thread with the use name Captain Shakespeare (hi if you're here by the way!) and it sparked this (enjoy, or groan, or both - whatever suits you ^_-)

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our Retake dead.
In peace there's nothing so becomes a fan
As modest stillness and humility:
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the krogan;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;
Then lend the eye a terrible aspect;
Let pry through the portage of the head
Like the thanix cannon; let the brow o'erwhelm it
As fearfully as doth a galled rock
O'erhang and jutty his confounded base,
Swill'd with the wild and wasteful ocean.
Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide,
Hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit
To your full height. On, on, you noblest Retakers.
Whose blood is fet from fathers of war-proof!
Fathers that, like so many valiant Shepards,
Have in these parts from morn till even fought
And sheathed their swords for lack of argument:
Dishonour not your mothers; now attest
That those whom you call'd fathers did beget you.
Be copy now to men of grosser blood,
And teach them how to war. And you, good BSN,
Whose ends were all too senseless, show us here
The mettle of your pasture; let us swear
That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not;
For there is none of you so mean and base,
That hath not noble lustre in your eyes.
I see you stand like varren in the slips,
Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
Cry 'Better endings now!' and hold the line!

Damn, we're super close to 70k. I'll go 40 for my second donation if someone'll cover that last 18 bucks.

Edit: Actually, screw it. I'll donate the 60 we need.
