AGDQ 2015 Plans

	So as some of you might know if you followed me on Twitter around August, but during a vacation in Montana, my grandma passed away in her sleep. It was a very sad time for everyone and it took me and my family a while to get past this. Fast forward to a few weeks ago and my grandpa was advised to either spend a lot of his money that he's saved his entire life or give it away. To cut out a huge chunk of it, he gave away a large amount of money (don't want to disclose how much) to each of his 3 children, 4 grandchildren (includes me), and their 3 spouses. Also yes this is what I was freaking out about a few weeks ago (https://twitter.com/MrShasta/status/543305817336721408). Now a couple of days ago, my mom was checking out some of my grandpa's old checks and found that I never deposited one check worth a decent amount of money (again, don't want to disclose how much), so I did that the other day too, along with the other check with the amount of money I mentioned earlier. I'm also working now for a little over minimum wage, so I've got a good source of income now. The point of bringing this all up is I have a lot of money saved up now to use however I please, so here's how I want to spend some of it:

	As all of you reading this probably already know, AGDQ 2015 is next week and I'm volunteering as a host there at some point in the marathon. Unfortunately I didn't get a run in this year, but with my newfound "wealth", I want to give some of it to help with their cause, because fuck cancer. Now here's how I want this to go: The number of followers I have on Twitch by the time the marathon starts (January 4th) is how much I will donate to the marathon (http://twitch.tv/mr_shasta). With a follower count that's not crazy high right now this is like the only time I might be able to do this. I know this might seem a little selfish on my end, but I can tell you right now I would donate a lot less than whatever the final amount will be if I didn't do this. I've always been very careful with all of my possessions, including my money, so I've learned not to go crazy with it, but I believe it's justified in this case. In the end it's all going to a great cause, so it's not like this is a shitty thing to do. I also want to donate any amount of money in my Paypal to the marathon. Also gonna cut this off on January 4th. I only use my Paypal for making purchases on eBay at the moment and have $0 in it at the time of writing this, so there's that. I will not let any cent go to waste.

	Also please do not make fake accounts just to follow me. I don't want to not count follows if that happens, but it's a big gray area if it does happen. Don't make this hard for me :<

	I'll try to stream as much as I can over the next week, but for the most part I don't want to do anything special for it and just treat it like a normal week of streaming. Just gonna work on my normal speedgames and maybe do some casual stuff I've wanted to do for a little (like Mario Superstar Baseball :> ). I won't do anything special for donations or have donation incentives, but if you want to donate, it's all going to the marathon, so go ahead if you want! I'll have enough money for all of this guaranteed, so feel free to spread this around if you like. Also answer this strawpoll please: http://strawpoll.me/3264259

	Thanks everyone for reading this and I hope you all understand where I'm coming from with this! Have a nice day and hope you all enjoy AGDQ, whether through watching, donating, and/or participating. ^^
