WOW!
That's awesome! This was one of the few charities I have donated to in the past.

32k? Really? Woha! That's a lot of money!
On a sidenote, Destiny gets 4k every 24 streamed hours? Nice pay day.

At some point they are getting tired and it is about the marathon of making it 24 hours, it isn't about providing the highest quality entertainment possible the entire time. Also what you think is fun or not fun isn't the same for each person. I felt like they did a variety of things that some people might enjoy and some might not. A 24 hour straight program is not the format you chose to go with if total entertainment is your primary goal, it was about raising money and having a good time with it. People like you make me want to blow up the internet. This post wasn't needed at all. They raised 30k to feed kids, what have you done today to help make the world a better place?
lmao you obviously have some issues in your life ^^
all i said was that it wasnt my cup of tea. Im more then happy to help them raise money, i watched most of TLOs stream, cos his played good music, had a webcam,and played fun custom games and interacted with viewers and stuff.Maybe its because his was the first one there was and i wanted to watch it all, but i couldnt have done that this time. I know it'll be tiring, and the one point i talked about happened to be quite late on i think.But i watched within the first 2 hours,and it just wasnt something i wanted to watch, and i wanted to play instead, so i did.
Maybe i came in at boring bits, im not trying to imply that the full 24 hours were like that, of course they wouldnt have been, cos they wouldnt have raised anywhere near as much money as they did. And of the 10-15000 people watching must have found it interesting or they wouldnt have been watching. I would have kept the streams on, but my computer cant handle running SC2 very well as it is.
As i said the first time, they've done really really well, and weather they win tournamenrts or not, they've both done something really great and inspiring here, but im allowed to give my opinion arent i? and my opinion is that it wasnt very fun. I didnt hate on them, and i wasnt aggresive, i just simply said it wasnt my cup of tea.
I think with 2 of them doing it, and with destinys massive massive fan base, i think they could have done alot of fun 2v2s and team games and what not. And maybe they did. I dont know do i, i only watched 5 mins at the most.
So maybe you should GTFO, calm down a bit, and not 'blow up the internet' (i lold there btw, thanks for that)

Not necessarily, his peak viewer count during the event was more than doubling his average. That being said, it still comes out to some damn nice numbers.

Yeah, I think the highest I saw was about 17.5k viewers.

Even if it was less than half of that, if he streamed 40 hours a week for 50 weeks a year....
If it was 1/4 of that: $1000/24hr = $83333/year
Some pretty decent money

He also ran more commercials than he normally would.

so did 100% of funds generated from this event go to charity? That was never mentioned in the OP.

was sick! I want more now though!

Yes. All donations went to charity, as well as all ad revenue.

The highest number we saw is 21k. But i guess maybe they will give some information about that.
Speaking of, is there a summary or kind of "Best Of" of the event?
Missed most of it =)
Thanks

Still glad to see these two helping out charities. regardless of how boring it may have gotten, attepting to do a 24hour cast is damn hard to pull off. especially when you are trying to function something as complicated as an RTS.

How can you say with 100% certainty that every single dime went to the charity? Normally when you donate to a charity, they will give you a receipt. Has that been posted?
Another thing to keep in mind is that everyone who works for a charity has the right to get paid, including Destiny and Sheth. If you host a charity event and bring a live band to attract attention, the band gets a paycheck for their service. This is much in the same way Destiny and Sheth using their celebrity status to bring awareness to the charity. It is possible for the live event to opt out of getting paid but that generally is not the case. As for Destiny and Seth, all the money went to their paypal accounts first, so they probably did get paid before the money was sent off to the charity.
Keep in mind that there is nothing illegal about this and this is how many charity events operate around the world. Lets take a charity cancer research facility for example. All the doctors and researchers inside of a cancer research facility gets paid for their service because they need money to feed their kids and pay their expenses. If they did not get a paycheck then how would they survive to keep the research for cancer going? The same thing goes for a priest inside of a church. Where does the money go when you donate to the church? A portion of it goes to the priest for living expenses and the rest goes to whatever the priest feels that the church needs.

you only watched 5 minutes of it, so youre an expert on the subject. first guy was right, this post wasnt need at all, along with your smug, rude response. you are the worst kind of poster. you say something without any actual understanding of what your commenting on, then you try and justify that you have some sort of right to make ugly posts. and then you take off on your high horse and "laugh" at the guy who called out your idiocy. well done champ

While it's certainly true that people at charitable organizations get paid, not everyone does, by a long shot. Bands doing charity events often volunteer their efforts, same with I'd venture to say a rather vast majority of charity workers. Doctor's without borders for example utilizes volunteer doctors (all of them aren't necessarily volunteer doctors, I'm not entirely sure, but they definitely have them) who don't get paid for their services beyond what is necessary for them work. Sheth and Destiny should not, and almost certainly did not, take a cut, it's quite the unwritten rule that ALL proceeds go to charity unless otherwise stated with this kind of community driven effort.

To be fair, it isn't the first time that ThatGuy89 has gone around being a douche.
Also, has the money been donated yet? Or a final figure been said - I know there was a rough estimate, but would really like to see how much the efforts yielded all up :D

This is half true-- Many of DWB's doctors are either people just out of their residencies who received grants from DWB to help pay for med school in return for a few years of service wherever DWB needed it. Others do receive salaries, but they are far lower than what they would make working at practices in the US. There's a whole system by which charities are rated for how efficiently they allocate their resources,and I believe legitimate charities are ones who keep less than 20% of their funds to pay for staff/offices etc. Based on that, if Sheth/Destiny both took 1k from the event, it would still be quite a reasonable endeavor for them as that is less than 20%, AND the 1k is probably less than what they would normally be making for their given time frame.
I think the concern is definitely a good one to raise, but I don't think it's much of a worry here-- I bet if you press destiny/sheth/justin.tv, they will show the receipt DWB gave them.

So what is the end of this event?
Are there any statements of Sheth and Destiny?
Or was the money for Destinys child college? + Show Spoiler +
I mean TLO made a big article on tLpro about the result and so on.
But there are no news about that... makes my a bit sad
|
Sheth said that he will write statement 1 day after the event but this wasn't the case.
Everything went quiet on this...
