RIFT Overcast & Extra-Life Marathon


Hey Overcast fans, Matt here to tell you that we will be participating in the Extra-Life Marathon this year on October 20, 2012. We are signed up on http://extra-life.org as RIFT Overcast and have joined the Trion Worlds team.  All donations raised by Overcast will count towards the cumulative goal of the Trion Worlds team and go towards helping fund local Children's Miracle Network Hospitals.  I myself have participated in 2 years of the Extra-Life Marathon and I'm very pleased to be able to support the event through our beloved podcast, RIFT Overcast.

On October 20, 2012, RIFT Overcast will be streaming LIVE on our TwitchTV channel for the entire 24 hours to help meet our goals for the Extra-Life Marathon event.  We will have a donation link available on our TwitchTV page for you, or any newcomers, to use if you would like to donate towards this great cause.



The Extra-Life Marathon is a fund-raising event that takes place once a year, every year, normally sometime during late October.  Solo players, teams of friends & family, and development companies all over the United States support the event through a 24 hour play session with their favorite game(s) to raise money for the children at Children's Miracle Network Hospitals across the nation.  Each year, the Extra-Life Organization raises more than it did the year before.

If you would like to sign up to help us reach our goals, simply visit http://extra-life.org, click on the sign up link and follow their step-by-step instructions.  Don't forget, when you sign up, to check off "Join A team" and select Trion Worlds from the drop-down menu!  If you will be playing RIFT for the duration of the 24 hour marathon, make sure you also remember to enter the correct RIFT gamer-tag.  This tag is the email address that is tied to your RIFT game account (the one you use to sign in with from the launcher).

If you want to donate to RIFT Overcast's goal, we would greatly appreciate it! Clicking the link below will take you directly to Overcast's official donation page, where you can choose the amount you wish to donate to the Extra-Life fund-raising event.  Any amount is another step towards helping sick children everywhere, simply by playing the games we love.

Help us to reach our goals and become a hero for children all over the nation!
