EVERYTHING About My 24-Hour Birthday Livestream & Harvesters Fundraiser Raffle

UPDATE: The 24-Hour Birthday Livestream & Fundraiser for Harvesters - The Community Food Network was a tremendous success! We raised nearly $1400 (at least $300 more than any event we've ever hosted), figured out how to use Facebook Live (which we'll likely use for Avatar: The Last Podcasters and PokeMalarkey live recordings going forward), hooked up 13 prizes with raffle winners, and (some of us) stayed up all 24 consecutive hours playing Magic: The Gathering, Diablo 3, BroForce, Mario Kart 8, and watching/playing football!

Thank you all so much for your contributions of prize donations, ticket purchase, and moral support. I thoroughly enjoyed it. ~Shawn
