Didn't see anything about this - just wanted to thank everybody for making #tf2can a massive success. We turned a negative into a positive and raised a ton of money for Child's Play.

Total donations as of 6 PM Central on Sunday is $9,081.69.

You guys are the best. Huge thanks to Dashner for not sleeping for 2+ days to make this happen and everyone else involved, KevinIsPwn, Jess and her graphics team, Erynn for helping with the servers, GetAWhale for MC'ing a lot of it, Agro and all the other amazing (actually talented) casters for pitching in.

What a rousing success! Hopefully we can make this a regular thing! Be sure the join the Steam group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/tf2can-org

To all that donated their time, talent and treasure you da real MVPs.

Hey guys. What happened over last weekend was surreal, I'm still pretty shocked.

I'll be emailing all the raffle winners soon. I'd have done it already, but I kinda left the list I have at my parents house. I'll be remaking that list and sending out info probably tomorrow sometime.

For those wondering about the 1.9% of the donations that went to imraising, I will still be covering that as planned. The total we raised is a whole lot more than I expected though, and it will take me a couple weeks before I can feel comfortable making that donation ($172.52).

This was an awesome weekend thrown together at the last second by a bunch of people from many of the wonderful tf2 subcommunities- 6s-ers, hl-ers, jumpers, surfers, pubbers, youtubers, streamers, and traders. It wouldn't have been as successful as it was if it weren't for the diversity of the communities that were represented.

If you just look at the surface of the TF2 community situation, you may say that these different groups wouldn't be compatible. The thing that I've personally taken away from this event is that that is nowhere near the truth. We have our differences and our bad apples (just like all communities do), but something about Team Fortress 2 magically attracts a thousand kind-hearted, well-meaning people for every bad apple in the bunch.

This event just adds to the pool of stories that show how special and unique our great community is, and I love you guys for it!

In the great words of Duder after the stream cut: "TF2 can? Nah, TF2 did."

This was an awesome event, big high fives to everyone who helped put it together to make it happen! $9000 in one weekend is pretty amazing. Dashner, get some sleep.

I also touched up the toucan I previously posted, now with links for any curious people.

Thank you to everybody involved, from the production crew to the donators, down to the live personalities and all of you guys who supported us and this event. Props to everyone who was part of the graphics team: our lead Jess, FoxC who made the awesome fireworks and lower thirds, and DukeDaniel who made our promo posters. I'll be straight up, I didn't think that we'd hit the numbers we did in terms of viewership or donations. Suddenly, we had a filled Mumble full of cool people all over different communities and niches wanting to pitch in their talents, over 9000 dollars, and a Twitch meme ascending into a symbol of good will and unity.

Also, shoutout to Ultimo for ripping that model that I was gonna surprise Dashnerr with in as a joke. Now, I feel like going through the work of finding this and having this ported was meant as fate. Have a 1920x1080 of our wonderful little blue-eyed star of hope.
