Rob & Friends: Gameblast 20 Fundraising
Fundraising for SpecialEffect
Story
Returning for the 4th year in a row I've brought back my wonderful wife Amy, good friend Mica and some new faces along for the ride to help raise money for Gameblast20!
-------------------------- WHAT'S HAPPENING? --------------------------
Nerdy X GAME
Really happy to be working with local board game cafe Nerdy with two events planned in the run up to Gameblast.
We'll be taking over their bi-monthly quiz night with one entirely dedicated to video games, with cosplay and great prizes on a raffle!
We also have planned Pokémon and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tournaments throughout the day - Details to be confirmed.

This year I will take to my treadmill again to beat my PB of 9 hours doing a marathon (42.195KM) while playing video games!
There will be a second stream where Obz, Amy and guests will complete a 24-hour gaming marathon over the weekend. Time to be confirmed.
-------------------------- PRIZES --------------------------
There will be a few prizes to give away over the weekend, some will be given to the overall top donor, some will be top donor for portions of the day, and some will be raffles for people who donate any amount.
Some of us that are streaming will also be taking part in silly incentives, such as dancing, singing, drawings and challenges at donation milestones, as well as for big lump donations!
