Dear friends - a very close friend of mine is in need of a new PC. He's been very humble about this and it's difficult for him to ask for help but believe me when I say he is so deserving of our help! I'm sure most of you guys are friends with Sain (Thunderfootbros) and have grown to love him as much as I have over the years. 

Sains computer situation is this, he was able to turn it back on. Down side, if he uses the USB ports for his cams and controller, it is likely that it will go back to its state where it refuses to boot up. Sain really misses streaming and we all miss his streams, he's never considered asking for help for this up until now (and this was after much pushing and nudging from friends) Sain's current PC is simply obsolete, still running DDR3 as the RAM. He is not looking to fix his current one, but now that it boots up again, he has time to save up and purchase a brand new PC with all the specs he needs to continue to stream.

Through Give a Hand, the goal is to raise $1,000 to go towards a brand new and far more operable PC. ($25 exra for the percentage taken from the fundraiser site) Currently, even before it broke, his PC can only chug along with streams, and he cannot even open a browser without it possibly crashing his stream. We want those days to be over for him, and he also looks forward to be able to pick up where he left off (even if it is Dragon's Lair). 

We are not asking for people to donate more than they can afford, or anything at all. He still plans to get a new PC regardless of what we raise, but whatever we do manage to pull together will all go towards it and lighten the burden of saving up for a period of time that will heavily cut into his streams. That being said, anything beyond $1,000 will all be donated to a charity (one he will determine in the future) We do not want to put any pressure on the community whatsoever - Spreading this news is a HUGE help, if you cannot donate, we still appreciate you so much, lurks are so much appreciated during the fundraising! Sain misses us and cares about us alot, lets do what we can to help him please 

On Saturday August 29th I'll be streaming with Joby to raise funds for Sain - ANYTHING contributed during stream will go towards his goal. I'll be making Mario themed perlers and raffling them off along with some fun stickers! and Joby will be attempting SMB1 with the controller up-side-down!! I should have a link to donation site soon but wanted to give everyone a heads up on this , Sain means alot to me
