[The_J]

Okay, this will be a very interesting live stream!
Kevin and the CivGame Twitter account announced https://twitter.com/FXS_MisterKevin/status/1471238701720248320 that Kevin, Ed Beach, and some devs will be online during the game.

So... donate, and make their appearance worthwhile!

And a Youtuber now made a video about the event!
Okay, TBH it's more a short 4 min podcast, since the video is really unrelated, but still nice to see .

Haha thanks for keeping this post up-to-date @The_J

The guys also just announced that they'll give away 10 copies of Civ6 Anthology during the stream.
With all of the things happening, this is definitely the one Civ related thing this year you want to follow .

The $25 000 has been reached! With 2K matching up to 25 000, this means that the goal of 50 000 has been achieved!

35k have been raised.
Also Ed Beach should get on the live stream any minute.
EDIT: Nope, sorry, first Dennis Shirk, then Ed Beach.

Catching the end of this: so far they have raised just over 42K

 

[The_J]

A lot more than I expected, TBH, and if you listened to one of their last podcasts, also a lot more than they expected.
Initially they wanted to do 10k or 12k, but then 2K offered to match 25k, so they kinda had to get up to 50k. So this is basically 30k more than anyone of them (and me) realistically expected. That's just great.
