My dad survived throat cancer. I might be a father some day. I will buy this in memory of this young warrior. She will live in our hearts until the stars burn out and mankind is but a memory. Seyla.

only 4000-ish people donated :D

that's so sad, where's the rest of the community?

It's $41,000, can't complain about any amount, especailly when it's only been up for a day.
I asked in a couple games last night "WHO EVER DOESN'T HAVE A SARAH MECH YET BETTER GET ONE!"
A few people went "I'm ganna when i get my paycheck" "ganna get it soon!", and so on, there's lots of people that are ready to donate, but when ever money is on the field, some people can blink away $10 easier than most.

Bought mine, and it looks awesome. Aim for the bullseye, fellas. Ignore my friend with the Ac20.

This reminds me of something I thought would be cool but don't see an easy way to implement:

Charity accounts

Set up special accounts at children's hospitals (would need to be official charitable hospitals) that people can donate MC &/or special mechs like this to. The kids could form drop teams and have a great time.

I doubt it is practical to implement but it would be awesome if it was.

Someone quote the purchase page as the citation for that information! Can't do it from my mobile.


Seeing the number go way up every time I visit this page puts a smile on my face!

At 10$ a purchase the MWO community has raised 43,690$ at the time of posting this, and STILL every time i refresh it increases.

I am proud to be part of this wonderful community, and have of course made my purchase as well.

I feel that it is rare to see a gaming company doing a 100% of proceeds donated charity event and I thank PGI for supporting a great cause like this!

Thank you PGI for doing this.

I bought mine.

I would have gladly paid 3x more to support the cause.

Saying "God Bless you all" doesn't seem like enough. I can't find the words.

I'd buy 3 (one each for me and my sons) if UltimatePay would only accept one of my PayPal accounts or credit cards.
