From December 9-11, Clan of the Gray Wolf is holding our 3nd annual Video Game Marathon for Charity, broadcast live on clanofthegraywolf.com (which is also where you can donate). All proceeds will be given directly to the American Cancer Society, which is an organization that collects funds for cancer research, prevention, and patient support.
We're planning a 60-hour gaming marathon utilizing the Phillips CD-i, which was one of the first CD-based video game consoles, launched in 1991. Games on the playlist include classics like Dragon's Lair, 7th Guest, Myst, and the infamous CD-i Mario and Zelda titles. There will be milestone challenges, contest prizes, and general chicanery to be had by all!
For more information, visit clanofthegraywolf.com

Compton's Interactive Encyclopedia?!? Be still my beating heart! Finally, this gem gets recognition! All joking aside, though...My bet is that of all the "games" you play, that one will be the best.

@NathanWubs The ACS isn't a religious organization. And I don't think they would turn money away in general as a charity.

@ClanOfTheGrayWolf Thanks for responding. I am glad you did your research and cleared that up for me. However, it came off as a red flag and thought it was worth mentioning.

@Scarlet1992Kille Usually with something like this, it's streamed live over the Internet, and yeah, people pay as thanks for letting them watch. It works just fine and people have raised tens of thousands of dollars for charities this way.

@johnandrewthomas1981 Sure, it received a 53, but that's still a 3 out of 4 star rating, and anything above a 60 is 4 star. Only 6% goes to administrative expenses, which is relatively low, and I see many more cancer charities that rank lower on charity navigator.

I'm guessing next year's marathon is going to consist of 3DO titles. If so, please try to get your hands on Plumbers Don't Wear Ties.

Three days of the CD-i? Yikes... As much as I enjoy some of the games on the platform, I don't know if I could even bring myself to do that.
