The original threadOn to the important stuff. The Charity: Child's Play is pretty much THE Gamer charity providing gifts including games books and other toys for children who are stuck in the hospital over the holidays so that they may still play games and generally enjoy the Holidays while stuck in a Hospital environment.
We will be posting a chipin link that goes directly to Child's Play during this entire event and every single cent that is put towards the total will go directly to Child's Play. Any and all viewer donations are asked to go towards the Charity during this event as we have made it a point to not take money from our viewers in the past.
I will be working on setting incentives at certain milestone donations marks still to be worked out partly by viewer request and a few other things.
Any donation of $20 US Dollars or more will be allowed to provide a shoutout in the comment box on the donation screen to be given over the stream. If your shoutout is inappropriate we reserve the right to withhold the shoutout so if you're donating for a shoutout make sure you keep it PG also you will have to donate through the Chip In widget for us to honor this as we will not honor paypal receipts to Child's Play themselves. So please use the Chip In box. WHO: I will cast for all 49 hours from start to finish, joined by many other members of iCCup TV who will Rotate in and out during the cast, plus other top players and personalities who care to stop by much like the first Extravaganza WHAT: 49 Hours of Starcraft 2 for Charity, starting off with serious bsns including an ITL, showmatches, King of the Hill. But as we move on and have been live longer we'll roll back and start to have more fun invite people to come by and join us on skype for hilarity. And even planning on getting a SHRINKAGE Tournament going during the event. Streamed live because you can see exactly what your opponent is doing on Shrinkage anyway so spoilers on the stream don't matter. Shrinkage game from the first iCCup Extravaganza Details of all events running during the Extravaganza will be posted at a later date so please don't try to sign up for anything until we provide the proper places and formats. WHERE: WHEN: Starting
Friday November 12th 2010 at 8PM Eastern, 5PM Pacific and 9AM Nov 13th Korean Standard Time
Continuing
The next 49 hours
Ending
Sunday November 14th 2010 at 9PM Eastern, 6 PM Pacific and 10AM Nov 15th Korean Standard Time WHY: Because I can, it's fun and it's a good cause. I am posting this early to get the Date out there so it is known and hopefully we wont run into any more scheduling problems. As we get the actual events set up and figured out I will add them to the post but I want this event to be a lot like the first one where it was a lot of fun for us and for people to watch. So make sure you guys tune in! Disclaimer 1: If you want to join us on Skype there will be ground rules, failure to follow these rules will result in you being hung up and if the problem persists you will be removed from the Call. We do want other Starcraft Personalities to be able to join us on the stream because that's what made it a lot of fun last time but if you fail to follow these rules we cannot allow you to stay on the Call. - This is a community event we plan on running for a long period of time and want to have the most viewers possible in order to promote the charity donations, so language MUST be kept to a minimum. Slip ups are one thing but major slipups or repeated use of language will result in you being hung up until you can calm down. Repeated offense will result in you being removed from the call. This is a serious matter we dont want potential viewers tuning out because we're swearing too much.
- If you want to join us on Skype send someone a message we might not get you in immediately depending on how many people are on the Call as we do not want to overcrowd it. If you are in the call and not really doing anything or have been gone for a while sleeping etc etc you may be removed to make room for new people.
- Have fun, thats the entire point of this event and to raise money for chairty.
Disclaimer 2: Was planning on doing this a while ago but rage quit announced theirs like a day before I was ready to so I bumped this back a little bit to not counter program them. Plus they posted they got the idea from our original Extravaganza so i don't want any fanboys in here saying I'm ripping them off. Disclaimer 3: Everything will be LIVE during this event we do not plan on using replays at all this is for a Charity event so if you have issues with this be warned now as we don't want to deal with it during the event. Disclaimer 4: Once again every cent will go directly to Child's Play the chip in widget iCCup TV does not want to or even intend to handle any of the money themselves. Excuse me..I don't mean to come off rude but I have a couple of questions here...Wasn't this already done by RageQuit tv? Actually I know for FACT that they did it first and that it was their IDEA first. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=144779Second off ~ Why the same charity as RageQuit tv? Are you guys simply trying to ONE UP them? Are you attempting to OUT DO them and really could care less about the community? Cause that is what it seems like to me. 3rd:Show nested quote +On October 06 2010 07:28 iCCup.Raelcun wrote:

WHY do you NEED to bribe them to donate?! Why can't you give them a shout out for just a single dollar?! Really now? I think RageQuit tv did a better way of handling donations. BTW - Nice way of using chip in box, same as they did. I love how so far you guys have EVERYTHING they same as RageQuit tv, just 1 single hour longer. WHY does this seem more like a ONE UP move? Do you HONESTLY care about those kids or the community? God I hope so! Nice change about the WHAT you guys are doing...I was running the Minerva tournament at the time with Cat, so they were casting a tournament that was planned and being ran...while running a KOTH in between matches.

Sorry that this is my first post but I mainly use this to read stuff. ive never had the need to post my opinion about something till now, like about copy cats. So, i gotta be more active on these forums. is there a good place anywhere to start?
As like it really matters because hey its for Charity.
PS Nice first post.

damn Karina, could you have possibly come off as more of a douchebag if you'd tried? Raelcun and the Iccup team have been around for ages, maybe you should do some research into respected members of the community before posting?
Was it necessary to USE so MANY BOLDED words? I think judicious use of underline and even the rare striike-through may have helped emphasize your points, NO?

This sounds awesome, I'll be tuning in. No interest in "one-up"ing him, in fact his cast inspired this. If you were there you might recall the discussion to do a similar event for charity. This is, in fact, my attempt at that. I'm also trying to invite Raelcun to cast with us some time, since he inspired this - but he's bm and never responds on MSN, so I'll have to try again some other day  Raelcun: If you're reading this, get a hold of me. You're also officially invited.
Umad? They admitted they got the idea for the 48 hour cast from the iCCup Extravaganza #1. Did you notice the #2 on the thread title?
Not going to bother to answer even half your angry rant. But as to why Child's Play they're a good charity I looked around and they're basically the only Gamer charity. But to restate...
Umad?

props to you guys for doing such a cool thing, ill be watching that's for sure!

Despite the fact that this is more than obvious an attempt to one up RageQuit.tv (49 hours, really?) - it's for a good cause, so good luck. I hope you raise as much, if not more than us.

I'd like to note that the idea did come from the original Extravaganza - but I was one of the ones discussing the idea in the Extravaganza. I was the one that acted on it - quite a while after the original Extravaganza.
I'd also like to note: I attempted to contact you related to our event, and wanted you to help out - and you never responded. Saying we beat you by a day? You had notice to respond and let me know that you had counter programming - you didn't.
You should at least give credit where it's due. and not directly rip from our name and add +1 hour to try to feel bigger.
But again, good luck. Raise some money for the kids, they deserve it.

Hey just an fyi charity marathon events are not actually a new concept and you did not create it. One of the top gaming streams of all time on Ustream is a Mario charity stream that is MUCH older then ragequit...

Seriously? It's a gaming marathon, this is not a new concept. I happened to do it first in Starcraft 2 but I don't take credit for it. Taking that and adding a charity is not a new concept either. Trying to say I ripped anyone off would be the guys who did the mario marathons before anyone in the Starcraft scene. Am I trying to one up you? Yes but it's a friendly thing nothing malicious. Again I happened to do it first so it's for publicity if I take my 'record' back then people tune in. How is this a bad thing. But if I'm giving credit to anyone then.

Wait are you serious? You come into a thread I posted about an even for CHARITY basically calling me a lying piece of shit who stole everything from Rage Quit.tv even take issue with the fact that I called them ragequit not "RageQuit.tv" and then go back and ninja edit the post out?
Seriously get your priorities straight why the fuck does it matter if I'm one upping them by 1 hour? It's called publicity actual tv stations and radio stations do it all the time. It opens the door for them to come back and one up me by 1 hour later down the road and it's a GOOD thing. Seriously you going back and removing your post pisses me off more than the ignorance of the original one.

Where is this friendly? You didn't even put our name correctly, man.
There's many things you could have done to make this a "friendly" thing - like mentioning it to us, asking us if we mind you taking our name and adding 1 hour (and changing a word), or even mentioning that the idea actually came from us.
I gave you credit in mine, you even quoted where I mentioned I got the idea. You got the modified idea from us, and the name - where's our credit?

He's not entitled to give you any credit as he is not profiting from it.
On legal grounds, he does not owe you anything. In fact, I would think you should be content that he is using your idea (if he is) to do some good in this world.

I realize there are no legal grounds. Legally, he's entitled to do what he wishes.
But he specifically said it was "friendly" - I'm just pointing out that I do not see it this way, at all.

You are taking a charity every wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too serious.
Seriously this is for charity. You didn't invent charity events. It's named somethign different and Raelcun even screwed up the name at that. It was supposed to be "War for the Kids". But that's not the point.
By the way I watched a bit of a charity event that went for a fucking week playing Zelda. Neither you nor Raelcun hold the record, so can you put your e-peen away please?
Why on earth should we ask for permission to do a charity event, that's just absurd. Did you ask Jerry Lewis if you could run a charity event?
Seriously man, I don't know if your trying to make Rage Quit look good but it's backfiring. Who cares if we spelled your name exactly right? You know how many people say "i-cup" or type "iccup" instead of "iCCup" on a daily basis? This is for charity, not you....

I'd also like to note: I attempted to contact you related to our event, and wanted you to help out - and you never responded. Saying we beat you by a day? You had notice to respond and let me know that you had counter programming - you didn't. You should at least give credit where it's due. and not directly rip from our name and add +1 hour to try to feel bigger. But again, good luck. Raise some money for the kids, they deserve it. Seriously? It's a gaming marathon, this is not a new concept. I happened to do it first in Starcraft 2 but I don't take credit for it. Taking that and adding a charity is not a new concept either. Trying to say I ripped anyone off would be the guys who did the mario marathons before anyone in the Starcraft scene. Am I trying to one up you? Yes but it's a friendly thing nothing malicious. Again I happened to do it first so it's for publicity if I take my 'record' back then people tune in. How is this a bad thing. But if I'm giving credit to anyone then. Props to http://www.thespeedgamers.com the first people I ever saw do a gaming marathon mad props yo. Where is this friendly? You didn't even put our name correctly, man. There's many things you could have done to make this a "friendly" thing - like mentioning it to us, asking us if we mind you taking our name and adding 1 hour (and changing a word), or even mentioning that the idea actually came from us. I gave you credit in mine, you even quoted where I mentioned I got the idea. You got the modified idea from us, and the name - where's our credit? You are taking a charity every wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too serious. Seriously this is for charity. You didn't invent charity events. It's named somethign different and Raelcun even screwed up the name at that. It was supposed to be "War for the Kids". But that's not the point. Why on earth should we ask for permission to do a charity event, that's just absurd. Did you ask Jerry Lewis if you could run a charity event? Seriously man, I don't know if your trying to make Rage Quit look good but it's backfiring. Who cares if we spelled your name exactly right? You know how many people say "i-cup" or type "iccup" instead of "iCCup" on a daily basis? This is for charity, not you....
All I'm saying is it is my belief that this event is directly inspired from our event, and no credit was given.
That is all I am going to say in this thread. Good luck with your event.

No our idea was spawned from the 8 trillion other charity events on the planet that match this exact model.
Seriously man, cool job getting set off by iCCup TV's #1 hater, and blowing some stupid shit out of proportion. You are claiming to have created a form of charity events that have existed for years on end.
Now I know iCCup TV did not have funds in our budget this year for a time machine, I don't know about Ragequit's... If so and you went back in time and created the whole marathon charity event thing then please let me know and we will give you loads of credit.
With that being said I am also out being I have 2999 posts and nothing cool in store for 3000 yet.... SHIT....
This event is going to be so fun, I'm super excited and hope to see everyone there. The guest list is going to be something else.... Prepare to be blown away again  !

You say your event was inspired by my first cast. Then in the next breath on refuse to believe that I could possibly be capable of coming up with the idea of a sequel event on my own steam without the help of your own event 2 months later?
Then you quibble about the name of the event? When the name is literally
[Name of the first Event] #2 - [Number of Hours] [Short line about the kids]
The only unique part about the name of your event was For the minerals! And I clearly used a different name. You claim it was directly inspired from your event and yet everything about it was standard gaming marathon for charity. If you really want me to give credit where it is due:
Credit: http://www.TheSpeedGamers.com I've watched over 10 of their gaming marathons I enjoyed all of them greatly and all of my ideas on how I think a charity marathon event should run come from them. They're awesome you should check out their upcoming Kingdom Hearts marathon in December.
edit: Oh pat tells me the speed gamers are the number one gaming stream on Ustream of all time. By a lot sweet good to know.
