Giving Needy Children A Friend for the Holidays

[Mighty_Pencil]

This season, it's important we think of those less fortunate than ourselves. We have PCs and whatnot, and they don't get anything as nice as what we do. There are children all over the world that aren't as happy as most of us are. I can't do much for these holidays, because I myself am pretty close to that point. But here's what I can do;

For every 1,000 Matching Pen and Pencil Sets I get from people in game, I will donate a bear curtousy of Build A Bear Workshop USA To needy children this christmas. In these hard and economically unstable times, children sometimes need small furry friends to help them.

A bear goes a long way for children, I know that very well. How about helping out a child instead of tossing those seemingly useless items? Remember; 1,000 may seem like a lot, but if everyone is on board with it, we can all easily amass multiples of the Matching Pen and Pencil Sets.

Melkathi also seems to be starting an event for Festive Sock drops, it seems he's collaborating with another to donate to his charity of choice in this Thread here.

Feel free to contact me through game email or Tells while i'm in-game if you would like more information. If I'm not on just email me, and I'll get back to any questions/concerns when I get back.

You can send your Pen and Pencil Sets to me via the UNTIL mailing system. Please hold off on sending small amounts at one time, I have a lot to sift through when that happens.

You can friend me or whatever by using @Mighty_Pencil. Now go on and git' searching!

The event's deadline has been changed to the 25th, I am sorry if this has inconvenienced any of you.

Wow, this is a pretty amazing thing of you to do.

Like, wow. I'll definitely be sending you everyone I find.

You're a brilliant person Mr. Pencil

I love teddy bears!

Hope you'll get swamped with Pen and Pencil sets then

Illumisar and I are still looking into some small details of our event.
It's good to see that at least you managed to go ahead with this though and we'll make sure that whatever we do exactly in the end, it will not affect pen and pencils, so we don't antagonize this.

It's not common this happens, I'm usually somewhat of a Grinch.

Those needy children deserve some level of happiness. This year, this is the only thing I can afford. With some of my friends backing the financial end, I can finally do it.

Hey... Tell your friends about it too, Darkblade.

Melkathi, I don't want any hard feelings. Daeke gave me an early Christmas gift, an epiphany. (No not a game one, get over yourselves guys.)

Let's do our best to get along, Melkathi.

That was the spirit of my previous post in this thread. After all, if two people in a game forum can't get along over christmas while talking charity... that would be pretty sad, right?

And yes , I'm going to send you a stack of pencils myself.

Very well, you shall get the Festive Socks I amass. I can't see anything else I'd do with those things if it wasn't for your thread.

What do you get for collecting these?

They do nothing in the official game, they're literally junk items you get out of presents. The only thing they're good for is Vendor Trash, and they still don't get you that much money.

The ideas Melkathi and myself have had for these items is far more useful than selling them anyways.

Can I make a request? Make all Bears superhero-themed. I remember this one bear that was a superhero in some animated movie from when I was a kid, it was awesome.


On a more serious note, I love the fact that you're going through with something like this. I always thought those things looked cool, and to actually donate them to a cause that needs it? My hat's off to you, Mister Pencil.
