Play Games – Help Kids – Use The Force: Extra Life

This Saturday, November 4th, my guild in Star Wars The Old Republic (SWTOR) is hosting their annual Extra Life charity event to help raise funds for the Children’s Miracle Network.

It’s a fun 12-hour marathon event where players game and take part in a variety of exciting activities in-game.

Here’s a list of some of the fun in-game activities you can participate in  during the event:

Icebreaker – Help us create a community mural to remember this year’s event.

Fort Tusken Grand Prix – It’s Podracing, PvP, and Sandpeople all in one! Trailer HERE!!

PvP Hostage Rescue – Protect your hostage or claim your opponents captive in this PvP Event.

Titles and Datacrons – Cartel Security Title from the Fleet and the Makeb Datacrons.

Hide n Seek – Can you be the first to find Mox?

Like a Voss – We have 90 minutes to defeat 21 Champions on Voss for the Champion of Voss Achievement.

SWTOR Wood Squares – An in game recreation of the Classic American gameshow featuring community content creators and Eric Musco.

Pick Your Poison – Into the Eternity Vault (16 man) or a Planet Hop..

Cosplay Contest  – Want to dress as Wolverine, Lara Croft, or Captain Picard? Strut your stuff on the Manaan Runway for fantastic prizes!

Radio Free Pub Crawl – Dance your way into the coolest cantinas and dives of the galaxy as the traditional dance goes mobile.

For complete details on the event, visit the guild website here. And even if you can’t participate you can still donate here.

For all or part of the event, like a marathon, each player receives donations for CMN based on their play. This marks the guild’s 4th year participating and in that time we’ve helped raise over $9000.

Activities start at 11 am Eastern on Saturday, November 4th, and run for 12 full hours on SWTOR’s Harbinger server. The event will also be streamed live on Twitch by a number of our guildies.

If you’re unfamiliar with Star Wars: The Old Republic, it’s an awesome, fun online game (MMORPG) with tons to do and lots of people to do it with, especially if you’re in a great guild. Check it out here, and if you use this link, you’ll get a bunch of free stuff too!

We hope to see you in-game or on Twitch and if not, you can still support the cause by donating to our team on the Extra Life website.

May the Force Be With You and Serve You Well.
