50,000 Monkeys at 50,000 Typewriters Can't Be Wrong

The Minecraft Marathon is awesome, made a giant Evil Wil Wheaton, and raised money for Child’s Play

Some of my friends raised money for Child's Play Charity by doing a Minecraft Marathon. I meant to link to it when it was happening, but mumblemumblesomething.

Anyway, here are two of the many amazeballs things they got excited and made:

I wish I hadn't mumblemumblesomethingcough, because it would have been awesome to see this happen in real time, but if you like what you see here (and here and here and here), then please consider making a donation to Child's Play Charity.

    We’ll be doing another one next year (possibly this year 2012 techically). And will do our best to pester you more so you can hopefully find time in between mumblemumblesomethingcough’s to watch us.

    Top one is epic, the bottom two look like character skins. Still pretty boss if you ask me.

    Thanks for the post! We had lots of fun doing this and other projects. In total, we raised over $11,000! We’ll definitely be doing something like this again.
