On the 21st May Microsoft will officially announce their new console. 

At the time of writing, my xbox gamerscore stands at 96623. I'm challenging myself to raise that to 100,000 before the announcement in 27 days. 

In the process, I'd like to use this as an excuse to raise money for Cancer Research UK. If I meet my target I'll be donating £100. 

If I fail to meet my target, I will still donate £100, but I will also shave my head and I post pictures of my stupid bald noggin on the internet. 

Hopefully my playing games to make a meaningless number increase will encourage you to donate - and make a much more meaningful number increase.

I will be blogging about gaming, achievements unlocked and rising tide of baldness-impending-panic here
