Rounding Out Day One

 Well folks, today was a great day of gaming. 12 hours down in this years Extra Life adventures. Finished the night out playing a game that shall not be named, after revisiting Albion in DAoC. Played my first Theurgist ever and had a ton of fun with it. Thats two decades of DAoC without ever playing one. Just thinking about that is pretty astonishing to me. Tomorrow is a very busy day and we may end up finishing out our Extra Life in a couple of weeks. Don't hesitate to put in your donations! We don't need to be gaming in order to take donations. Be the hero you know you are!

From Old to New

On to the new! I love DAoC, and would love to continue helping the realm as much as I have been helping the children, but I would also like to include my own children. This year Astrologikal will be joining me again. We are going to dive into a new game that neither of us have had a chance to play. In hopes that we can raise some funds for the kids of The Childrens Miracle Network, that they may also enjoy games they've never played. On to Palia!

Nostalgia Vibes Inc!

With all that is going on, I figured I would take it back to game I loved when I was younger and still love to this day. For the next couple of hours I will be fighting for the realm of Hibernia in Dark Age of Camelot on the Uthgard private server. Classic DAoC vibes incoming!

Game Day 2023

Good Morning all you Extra Lifers! I hope you slept well because we have a full day of gaming shenanigans! While the adults (Shavonne and...ok, just Shavonne) start to get things ready, Voiced and Void (formerly known as Shellychuck) are getting finished with their chores so they can join in. 

Last night, Brett already got started with some bug-splattering fun in Starship Troopers: Extermination.


He joined the Gaiscioch family in their fight against the Arachnid threat. Everyone fought and no one quit as they did their duty to earn citizenship. Would you like to know more? 


We are 2 hours down and have 22 more hours of life-saving game-playing to do! Donate, join us in game, or just hang out. 

You can be a hero, too!

I really do have a terrible memory...

     Day 3... I really do have a terrible memory folks. I get so engaged in saving the kids that I forget to post what I was doing.. to save the kids! So, Day 3 started with the WHOLE Chouinard family trying to tackle some goals that Elcee had set for us. 

1. Build a giant mansion

2 Go to the end


Neither of which we accomplished. I'll tell you what we did accomplish.. Dying.. A LOT. No worries though. The real goal is to help the children that use The Children's Miracle Network not have that issue. 


    After the Minecraft block was over we all ate some lunch. Gotta fill the tums with the yums in order to get things done. 


    Then it was right back at it. Nuk and I jumped into 7 Days to Die together and again.. managed to get nothing accomplished. Nuk died alot. I just ran around to different biomes trying to gather things. Then threw all of those things into a storage chest that I never returned to. Either way it was still a TON of fun. I forgot how fun 7DtD actually is. So many updates. And with that. The day was over. It's time for dinner and then bed. Don't worry though. You can still go to the donation page and get your donations in.

Arcadegeddon.. not Armageddon.

 



Arcadegeddon was a blast! Pun totally intended. Super fun 3rd person over the shoulder shooter with some roguelike aspects. Lots of different weapon types, lots of traits to gather, and oh yeah.. lots of POWERSLIDES! I actually really enjoy the soundtrack as well. Played this little gem with the Gaiscioch crew as well. We had the difficulty up to 10 by the time we lost to our second boss. He loves to heal to full and spawn tons of adds. The adds is what did is in. A ton of customization options as well. Had a little bit of spaghetti for dinner and now were on to the next one. Anacrusis. While I'm not a huge fan of the game because of how generic it is, it is still a fun little shooter. Takes place in space too! Wooo aliens!

Good Morning Everyone!

Who else is bright-eyed and bushy tales today? Not Brett, he is getting too old for those 2 am gaming sessions. This is just a quick update because we are about to start Smite with the miniChouinards!
