The long version!

 

Sorry but I have not grown up and have no plans to grow up. I think playing games is one of the coolest things you can do and the people who make these games are amazing. But I am lucky, I can play these games but there are other individuals who are not so fortunate. That is where Special Effect comes in; they help those who can't, play.

 

I have a plan for 2014 but I wanted to raise some money now. The idea is hopefully easy, simple and cool! Get a t-shirt and get as many industry people as I can to sign it. Starting at UKIE on the 6th September then Eurogamer on the 28th September, I plan to get as many signatures, drawings and photos of the events as I can. This will go on for as long as necessary.

 

The end result will be raffled off to one you awesome people. If you really want to get this T-Shirt, donate loads (£1 a ticket). If you don't want it just give a little. Go on.
