WELCOME TO THE MaZr INVITATIONAL CHARITY STREAM
When: February 3, 2018 11 PM – 3:30 AM (UTC)
Where: https://twitch.tv/mrbcleague

Now announcing the inaugural MaZr Invitational. Are you tired of the same ol’ meta stomp fest? Ever wonder how that 12-man that just stomped all over you would perform in different circumstances? Then come join MaZr and some of the hottest Faction Warfare units and pilots this side of Terra (and Strana Mechty) as we team up to bring you hours of exhibition, non-meta fun all to benefit Child’s Play.

FAQ:
Who’s going to be there?
We’re bringing teams from LODD, EVIL, MS, ARC7, HHoD, C4, CBR, g-nx, and MaZr as well as some freelance members of other units from the Faction Warfare community. On top of these fantastic units, we also have justcallme A S H and Twinja who will be casting giving you live commentary and analysis.

Awesome! How do I sign up?
Unfortunately, the event organizers have already selected the participants for this stream. HOWEVER, if you and/or your unit are interested in taking part in future event, please contact event organizers Ivor, PshnHrd, or FrontLineAssembly in game OR send an email to mazrcharity@gmail.com and we’ll put you on the list for consideration for the next event.

Ok, so if the participants are locked down already, is there another way I can help?
YES! Logistically, we’re all set for the backend, but we need people to spread the word, watch, and donate. I know it doesn’t sound like much, but this is what will make the MaZr Invitational an overwhelming success! If you’re interested in helping and contributing to the next event, please get ahold of the event organizers.

What is Child’s Play?
Child’s Play is a US-based charity that works with hospitals around the world to bring video games, toys, and books to children in pediatric hospitals to make their experience less… well, hospitally. They achieve this by working with individual hospitals to create wishlists and through cash donations which Child’s Play uses to purchase video games, toys, and books for the hospitals and facilities. For more information check out: http://childsplaycharity.org/about

What an awesome cause! How can I donate?
There are a few ways to donate through the MaZr Invitational. Donations will go directly to Child’s Play through either the widget or the donation URL: https://donate.child...29166d080d0c028

Right, so, all we have to do is claim we just potatoed too hard and as such beat ourselves and that bounty is ours. Sweet, $50 to the C4 Brazilian BBQ fund!

Wait, we don't get the $50, it's going to charity?! Never mind C4, business as usual, stompy stompy for kids as planned!

Ivor: had another rules question: is there a limit to the amount of and type of AMS we can bring? With some matches having a minimum LRM boat requirement, this would seem important.

Yes. For the LRM match, there will be limitations on AMS number (but probably not type). We want mechs to get pummeled after all. For the rest of the matches, that slipped my mind when drafting the rules. Thank you for bringing it to my attention!

So I have my Atlas pumped out with 12 potato launchers. I decided to go with a mix of Golden and Idaho potatoes for that nice tasty mix up. Only problem is I didn't have room for the Butter Launcher, the Sour Cream Launcher, the Bacon Launcher, the Pepper Launcher, the Green Onion Launcher, the Cheese launcher (I swear to god Tahawus, if I see one California cheese is better than Wisconsin cheese... two demotions and 50 lashes), and the salt launcher.

Well... wait... most cockpits come pre-installed with a heavy dose of salt. Alright. So far I got some salty potatoes.

I'm gonna need the other C4 boys to build around this. We better be able to feed every unit in this event at least one high quality fully loaded potato. I'm talking the works here guys... common, what do I even pay you guys for?

Do it for the potatoes folks! I mean the kids! Yeah, that. The second part.

There is no way to text in a donation. I suspect that's for tax receipt or logistical reasons. In any case, the best way to donate for this event is through https://donate.child...29166d080d0c028 or the widget.

If your boss is looking to do a corporate sponsorship, he can check out this link.

Would like to give Ivor a massive shout out and thanks for all the hard work he has done so far for getting this going as well as many others. Twinja and Just call me Ash for taking time out to host this thing for us . Also all the units who have taken time out to be a part of this charity event and hope that this event gets traction and hope there is many more to come.
