Join the Team for GWJ Extra Life 2021

Section: 

That's right, folks, it's almost that time of the year again!

With the end of the year fast approaching, so is Extra Life's Game Day! The exact day is Saturday, November 6th, 2021. Fundraising now happens year-round, but most events and festivities will be on November 6-7th, so you can look forward to that!

Much like previous years, we'll be planning a multi-day stream around Game Day, and we truly hope you will all be able to join us in supporting Children's Hospitals all across the North American continent. With the pandemic still ongoing, they need all the help we can give them.

If you are at all in a position to do so, we'd love to see you join our team, gamerswithjobs, and/or donate via any of the goodjers participating in the event.

If you would like to stream with us for the Gamers With Jobs Twitch streams, please contact Amoebic via PM or amanda (at) gamerswithjobs.com to discuss. You will need to have your own twitch channel to receive stream keys and being part of the GWJ Extra Life Team is preferred.

With Game Day less than a month away, we'll be updating the thread with more information, updates, schedules/links to streamers' pages, and more!

We look forward to seeing you all.

As soon as tech support has my account sorted out, I'll be joining the GWJ team!

SUPER EXCITED, folks, just pumped! My schedule has been (tentatively) established and you can find it below. Of course, if you've seen my previous Extra Life's, you'll know there's a non zero chance I'll throw all that out the window, so be sure to tune in to find out what actually happens. And yes, I will be doing the 24 hours, just spreading them out over three days because I'm not superhuman.

Wow, I was saying I'm not superhuman, but Cthos is!! The 24 hours in one run, kudos to you!! Great to see another name on the list!!

Is everyone excited? Because I'm excited! I'm only eight days away from my Game Day (since I'm starting on the Friday), and super looking forward to it!! We had a few folks join the team, which is also SUPER AWESOME, because the more the merrier.
I've made a few adjustments to my schedule, since the game for November (GWJ adventure game club) has been determined (It's Memoria, I am ECSTATIC), and I played the short and sweet Cyrano last week. See you all very soon!!!

Small schedule adjustment for me, I couldn't get Man of Medan to actually run, so it's being replaced by Into the Breach.

My Saturday the 6th schedule is modest as I want to be available for streamers and supporting the GWJ channel. Will likely stream more on Sunday!

10am-12pm CT: Animal Crossing New Horizons
