They went back to the Prevent Cancer Foundation... it's probably for the best.

[Ben]

why did they stop doing that in the first place? im not hip to the drama

[grue]

idk I think they just wanted to diversify the charities they support? so they took the Red Cross I think last time, but people were complaining bc it's not as savory as the Prevent Cancer (Red Cross has been involved in some shady stuff I think)

there was also the problem that the Prevent Cancer acts only on US soil afaik, and people were complaining about donating to a charity that favours only a single country. the counterpoint is that the research coming out of Prevent Cancer helps everyone so idk

gaming right

[Ben]

yeah stop arguing over the merits and efficacy of charity and beat the hero story of sonic adventure battle 2

[Tempest]

it's just not the same agdq without people donating their money and saying "i hope we cure cancer for every single person in the world this year!!" so i'm glad they went back to PCF

[grue]

yeah and the tear-jerking stories about how dad died of cancer literally yesterday

[Ben]

[grue]

im a big fan of the HYPE meme

[Tempest]

some dude sitting next to the couch told the crowd to kill themselves because they were doing a chant every time someone got an item in super metroid lol

[Tempest]

undertale was a pretty sick choice to end the marathon tho, the runner was a cool, entertaining guy and the run itself gets pretty crazy

[grue]

that was a lot of money raised
