Horde 4 Charity 48-Hour Marathon Begins Today

November 18, 2011

Six men in Scotland are going to war this weekend, but the fight isn't for the survival of the human race - it's for a good cause. They will take part in a 48-hour Gears of War marathon to benefit their favorite charity. The six combatants taking part in the 48 hour Horde 4 Charity event are Sean Kiddie, Colin Henderson, Alistair Cowan, Kyle Hatch, Stephen King (not the horror writer), and Neil Castle. From November 18 - 20 six Gears of War fans will play 48 consecutive hours of Insanity level Horde Mode for the Skylight Miscarriage Organization (www.skylightmiscarriage.org.uk - Charity Code: SC045573).

The entire 48 hours of hardcore antics will be streamed live on Justin.tv (www.justin.tv/horde4charity) as well as tweeted on the Gears 4 Charity Twitter and live blogged on the group's Facebook page.

While everyone is encouraged to watch, tweet, and post comments to the combatants, the goal is to drive donations during the event via PayPal. For more info on Horde 4 Charity, check out horde4charity.blogspot.com.

DorthLousActually, nop, I did miss the emoticon for some reason (getting used to pics?) and I didn't know you changed it since (since I posted previous to my shout and it was still there.) Anyhow, thanks for taking it out!05/23/2012 - 6:01pm

DorthLousWhy? Not shocked that people are barking to an additional hoop to jump through when posting from their already logged in account or just mentionning this to try to paint me as one always complaining?05/23/2012 - 4:45pm
james_fudgebig shock there ;)05/23/2012 - 4:30pm
DorthLousI'll add my voice to those wanting it gone :S I'm already logged in, I don't need a captch'a. That's for those registering.05/23/2012 - 3:54pm

E. Zachary KnightHow do we determine who get's the game/captcha thingy? Is there a certain posting threshhold users have to meet before it is turned off?05/23/2012 - 2:25pm
