Red Nose Day - 11th March

[Lee-yoshi]

As many are no doubt aware (Who live in the UK anyways), the time of the year is coming again where the BBC gathers millions of monies together and then gives them all away to a good cause. To raise these monies, they ask for donations, either from people watching the events on TV, or by other fundraising events held by individuals.

This time round i thought it may be interesting to do something PSO based here on Ragol.co.uk, but any ideas? Would people even be bothered to donate money if an event was done?! (Yes im talking about you lot) Ive had a look on the Red Nose Day website and you can donate money online with pratically any form of plastic card (Holding legal tender that is!) through WorldPay. Interested?

I was considering myself maybe doing a 24Hr PSO-athon! Midnight-to-Midnight non-stop playing Phantasy Star Online, either single player online for times when its not that busy, or in multiplayer if anyone else here decides they would also like some action! Im not doing it though if its not gonna raise anything though

Interesting... i'd like to do something like that, and i'd happily donate some moneys, not that i really have much

yea yea thts a good idea in america we only have bikeathons and walkathons thts a good idea
heres some ideas u could do turn it into a contest somewhat and see who could grow the most lvlz or beat the most bosses
( i couldnt do it cause i dont have online tee hee )
(too lazy to go to the store)

I woldent mind doing something but without online capabilitys i cant realy proove ive done it

Cool, its good to know some people are willing to support it by donating to Comic Relief, worldwide, even if you cant play online ^_^

Of course, if you do have the ability to play online you can meet up with me during the marathon of PSO and join in the fun until you've run outta steam or suddenly gotta go for whatever reason. The main reason is of course, to enjoy it, AND most importantly to raise money for charity needs, such as those to help 3rd world countries and helpful organisations in the UK

I would try to enjoy it as much as possible... although itd be hard what with it being on the same day as the Nintendo DS (+ Its launch games) and Mario Party 6 is released!!! Its gonna be hell with all that suspense!!

I reckon you should organise a challege mode marathon where you play it non stop until its complete Im willing to donate!

[Lee-yoshi]

Im hoping that by organising such an event, many people will come online regardless to either play along, meet up with me/others, or just check and see how its all going on! In which case people can have the opportunity to play with people who they either havent played with before or havent played with in a while and play the modes available with more people around!

Either way you may come online and even if im the only person around, go through challenge mode regardless ^_^

I live in America (well Hawaii to be exact ) so I've never heard of that before, but it sounds interesting. If I could donate money, I would gladly do so (though it won't be much, I need as much as possible to pay for uni). A PSO marathon would be interesting, I wouldn't mind joining (except not for a long time, I'll get tired or hungry eventually ).

[Lee-yoshi]

With all this support for the event and especially in donating for the charity event, it seems its going ahead ^_^

Im gonna plan it all out shortly i think

Problem Lee-Yoshi...I do this NEARLY EVERY NIGHT ALREADY!

I shall attempt to break my old record of:

63 HOURS STRAIGHT!

I set it at half-term, ate while I played, and clenched like there was no tomorrow!

*Should I be happy about that!?!*
