Today is the DCUO Extra Life charity stream, running from 6am - 10 pm PST (3am - 7pm EST). but what exactly is Extra Life? Its an event in which players from around the world raise money to help sick and injured children associated with the Children's Miracle Network Hospital for treatment and care of their maladies. The goal is to raise $50 million USD today, and there are numerous entities competing to raise money (remember, gamers are competitive)! Looks like the Magic: Gathering people have donated a ton of coin so far, but it is for a (verified) good cause. Still, as of this writing, the DCUO has a few donations already, and I'm sure there will be more to come!
Although the DCUO link stated there will be a "... live stream, activities, timing, and rewards...", the DCUO Forums have speculated that it might be some kind of "angelic" give away (based on the graphic displayed above). To get the participation code, stop by the live stream and they will tell you what the code is. The "Extra Life" stream is located on Twitch right here.
Still, its a good cause, so at the very least, instead of buying that two liter bottle of Mountain Dew to guzzle down your pie hole during a raid, you might want to donate to the cause instead! See you in world!
