Alright, listen up, y’all. Let me tell ya ’bout this Frost Fatales thing, the 2024 one. It’s somethin’ about them video games, you know, the kind the young’uns are always playin’. But this ain’t just any playin’, no sirree. These folks, they call ’em speedrunners, they go zoomin’ through them games faster than a greased pig on a hot day.
What’s it all about, you ask? Well, it’s for charity, see? They’re raisin’ money for them folks at the National Women’s Law Center. Good on ’em, I say. Them women need all the help they can get, what with all the troubles in this world. So these speedrunners, they play and play and play, and folks watch ’em online and give money. It’s like a big ol’ online barn raisin’, but ‘stead of buildin’ a barn, they’re buildin’ up hope, or somethin’ like that.
This Frost Fatales 2024, it happened back in March, from the 3rd to the 10th. They was at it day and night, streamin’ and playin’ and collectin’ money. And wouldn’t ya know, they raked in a whole heap of cash. I heard tell it was over $155,000! That’s a lot of greenbacks, let me tell ya. Folks was generous, givin’ seven bucks here, ten bucks there, even more sometimes. It all adds up, ya know?
- When was it? March 3rd to 10th, 2024.
- Who was it for? The National Women’s Law Center.
- How much did they raise? Over $155,000!
They got this other thing too, Flame Fatales. That one’s in August, from the 18th to the 25th. Sounds like they keep busy, these folks. Always playin’ games and raisin’ money. Good for them, I reckon. Better than sittin’ around doin’ nothin’, that’s for sure.
Now, I ain’t much for them video games myself. Give me a good book or a nice quilt to sew any day. But I can see the good they’re doin’. And it ain’t just about the money, neither. It’s about folks comin’ together, havin’ a good time, and supportin’ a good cause. That’s somethin’ we can all get behind, ain’t it?
I heard they had a whole schedule and everything. Folks could tune in and watch whenever they wanted. And they had this donate link, so you could give money easy as pie. Technology these days, it’s somethin’ else, I tell ya. Makes my head spin sometimes, but if it helps folks raise money for charity, then I guess it can’t be all bad.
So, what’s the deal with these speedrunners? Well, like I said, they play them games real fast. Faster than you or me could ever dream of. They know all the shortcuts and secrets, all the little tricks to get to the end as quick as possible. It’s kinda like a race, I guess. But ‘stead of runnin’ with their feet, they’re runnin’ with their fingers. And they got folks watchin’ ‘em from all over the world, cheerin’ ‘em on. It’s a whole community, ya know?
This Games Done Quick, they got more of these events, too. Sounds like they’re always up to somethin’. Frost Fatales is just one of ‘em. They got teams and volunteers and all sorts of folks involved. It’s a big operation, from what I can tell. But it’s all for a good cause, and that’s what matters.
Anyhow, that’s about all I know about this Frost Fatales 2024. It was a big deal for them video game folks, and they raised a whole lot of money for a good cause. So, good on ’em, I say. Hope they keep doin’ what they’re doin’, and keep makin’ a difference in the world.
And if you hear about this Frost Fatales thing next year, in 2025, or any other of them charity events, maybe throw a few dollars their way. It’ll make you feel good, and it’ll help folks out. That’s what we’re here for, ain’t it? To help each other out.
