I'd like to take a moment to not be a spooky animatronic bear and be a nice animatronic bear. November will be here at the end of the week. Over the past few years, men have started to grow mustaches during the month to raise awareness for men's health. It has grown from a small group in Australia to a worldwide event, from a few people to millions. Now why am I making a thread about this? I noticed that we support breast cancer awareness month, but do not do anything for men's health awareness month... for Movember. So I took it upon myself to try and organize an event this upcoming month. This will be my third year running growing a 'stache. And I'm throwing down the gauntlet. I want YOU to join in on the mustachioed madness! Anyone who is willing and able, I encourage you to grow a 'stache! If you already have one, get rid of it and start from scratch. If you're participating, I encourage you to post a first day picture and a final day picture. If you want to post any additional pictures, feel free to do so. And if you are unable to grow a mustache yet want to support the cause, then draw one on your profile picture and/or signature. So let's get to work and show off some 'staches! Until then, I will resume scaring the living daylights out of people. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

April 15th, 2013 changed the lives of the people of Boston and its surrounding communities. Since the National Grifball Association (a Nonprofit Corporation) is headquartered out of Boston, we felt action should be taken on our behalf to help our fellow citizens in this time of need. Over the next two weeks, we will be holding multiple "marathon-themed" Grifball events, and we have an open charitable donation campaign on HopeMob.org. Donations are now being accepted, and will continue to be open throughout the events. Please give generously, as every donation will completely go to The One Fund Boston, Inc. We are pleased to announce that so far, we will be giving away download keys to two great games from Fire Hose Games (@FireHoseGames), which is run out of Cambridge, MA: 10 codes each for Go Home Dinosaurs and Slam Bolt Scrappers. We have also received 26 Boston-themed prize packs from Yawkey Way Report (@YawkeyWayReport), a publication about the Boston Red Sox, and Beantown Collectibles (@BTCHeadquarters), a sports-and-geek memorabilia retailer. Both of these companies are run out of Boston. In addition, the fine folks at Halo Waypoint (@HaloWaypoint) have agreed to donate a Halo-themed XBox Live download to each donor in our drive. This includes themes, Avatar armor, props, and picture packs. If you are reading this, and would like to help us in the way of sponsorship, please send an email to "[email protected]" or "[email protected]". Our most sincere thanks to our generous donors so far! EVENTS May 4th 6:00PM Eastern - May 5th 8:20PM Eastern - live 26.2 hour Grifball stream. We are asking interested community leaders and Halo personalities to join us on the stream on the NGA Grifball Twitch.tv channel for half-hour blocks of Grifball. We are maintaining a Google document with all available time slots. Please contact us in any of the ways listed on the document if you are interested in participating. May 6th - May 12th: We will be encouraging the community to commit to playing 26 games of Grifball during this week. Players who report their games through a form on our site will be eligible to win prizes when the week is over. We will also give a prize to the player who gets the most sponsorships for this event. More details, including how to donate or sponsor your favorite Grifballer, can be found here, and will continue to be updated as the event nears. In addition, we are strongly considering holding a pay-to-play Grifball tournament, to be held on or around May 18th, depending on the amount of interest from the community at large. 80% of the fees for the tournament will be donated to charity, and 20% will go to the winning team. If this is something you and your Grifball team would be interested in, please drop us a line. There will be a cap of 16 teams (with four players) for this event.

Message to all members! Update: This fundraiser is legitmate, they simply failed to post a link within their site to verify they were on charitywaters list. Absolute Dog <<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>> Hey guys! Tomorrow myself and a few friends (longtime halo fans) are going to livestream 80 hours of Halo to raise money for Charity: Water. We're going to play through all the halo games (1,2,3,4,ODST & Reach) and it's going to be a blast! The website is http://waterthon.org. Our facebook group can be found here. (I should mention that we do things when we accumulate a certain number of likes.) If you have any questions feel free to post here. (We also have an FAQ section on the website.) Hope to see you there! -Eric Edit: Sorry for the giant attached photo, I can't change it now. :/
