Title: Oh hey we had some leftovers in the donation pot

$520.81 to be exact
http://www.mariomarathon.com/

It went towards these maniacs running an endless Mario Marathon for charity.  They will continue playing for as much money as they get, up to 150k to finish every single game.  And all the money goes directly to Child's Play, nothing is taken by them.

And thanks to your generosity we're making them go through a couple of 100 coin challenges on Super Mario 64 :V

Anything that eventually goes to Child's Play is okay with me.

They cut our name off on the donations tab, even though I left a note saying our name was too long for the field :(

And it went directly to Child's Play, the Paypal receipt confirms it.  Funny thing is I had to use my personal CC because Paypal felt it was a "risky" transaction.

I think it'd be fun to play games for charity sometime. 8)
