  Hey everyone,

  On Sunday 3/27 beginning at 9am PDT

  on the WGT Twitch channel I will be running a charity stream for Gamers Outreach.

  For those who do not know who Gamers Outreach is, they are a charity that makes video games available & easy to manage in hospitals. Their focus is on bringing gaming rigs/setups to children's hospitals. Each year they host a Gamers for Giving marathon charity stream.

  This will be a bit different than past WGT charity streams as including myself there will be over 7 players featuring throughout the stream.

  9am-10am my 1 hour block where I will be playing having some fun so feel free to ask me some questions

  10am-11am IRISHKING1916, simovoice, and carlosdev

  11am-12pm Young46

  12pm-1pm WGT Trivia/Game show hosted by Patchnotes featuring Young46, frenchconnect, and one more 

  *all times are tentative and may not be exact but is a decent estimate*

  If you are available and interested in watching, feel free to follow along and watch. Of course since it is a charity stream, donations are appreciated but of course not required. Having a fun time playing some WGT is the main goal.

  Can we make donations to the charity if we don't watch the stream on Sunday?  If so, how?  And, can the donations be made anonymously?

  Yes, Gamers Outreach always has a link on their website to donate to them whenever. 

  When donating there is a toggle button where you can click anonymous as well for those who would like to remain anonymous

  Hey everyone, 

  the stream happened yesterday and I just want to say thanks to those who stopped by and hung out for a bit, was a fun time. I really enjoyed running this. 

  We absolutely crushed our goal of $1000 and ended up raising $1400!

  We couldn't have done it without the support of you all and this awesome community that exists.

  Was a good program for a good cause.  Curious, did you ever discover what was causing the horrendous feedback when Jason’s stream started? Never have heard that before.

  ya, after the stream I went back and somehow something with my audio cable that was disabled/removed ended up re-enabling and it was taking Jason's feed like 3 times causing the severe sound issues.

  Like 40 minutes before the show started my PC was having issues and even crashed which made it so I didn't have enough time to go through and fixed everything. Was just unlucky I didn't notice the sound issue before it occurred.
