Wednesday Morning
City of Heroes team - $4041
Ranked #21 in donations
$65 dollars behind the #20 ranked team, and only $162 dollars behind the #19 ranked team

If you wish to take part, click the link on that page to "Join This Team".
If you wish to Donate, click any team members name on the list at the bottom of the page, then click the "Support Me!" link on that team members page for an easy and secure online donation.
Don't think you have to give a lot to make a difference. For some teammates a $5 donation would be a doubling of their total! and chipping in the $15 VIP subscription that got cancelled for Oct (or November) would be around a 50% increase for 1/2 of the folks on the team!
If you didn't get a chance to make a Donation for the Dev's Dinner (like I didn't) then consider donating for this.
(The donation page takes credit cards and PayPal)

City of Heroes Team at $4316
Our next nearest is ahead $374.
Looking through the standings... The G4 team is roughly double our donations at $8,565 ... but has about 145 members compared to our $4316 with only 38 teammembers.

WE are doing great so far! The G4TV team has just under double our donations. The difference is we have 38 team members, and they have 145 team members.

Holding steady overnight.
I'm hoping that the end of a work/pay week will mean more donations or team members.
Just over one week to go till the game-a-thon1

Team CoH is at $4,435!!!! With a week to go I think our goal should be $6,000+ Hoping that those who got paid today will think to themselves "Hmmm since I am not paying for CoH this month..."
Keep up the great work everyone!
(Side note...I got a donation from someone today..no clue who she is, but sent her a short THANK YOU email).... If she is a member of these forums and reads this: THANK YOU!!!!!

Team CoH is currently at $4,615.00
With 6 days left to go I am hopeful we can easily break the $5,000 mark. Please spread the word on Facebook, Twitter, Google+ etc.
I think it is an awesome showing of true heroism that this community is banding together to help children/families in need. Remember if you cannot participate that ANY donation is a great donation. I know people who are donating $1 to a few people here and there...and those $1 contributions/pledge add up.

City of Heroes team - $4683

WE are doing great so far! The #5 G4TV team has 11,317. The difference is we have 40 team members, and they have 159 team members.
If all the folks in Leandro's Unity Rally video http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=XRsj2DtLCQs donated another dollar ($3700) we would be at #11. That's not including all the folks who maxed out Freedom and the spilled into the other servers. A decent amount of VIPs from the video (say 2000) donating their $15 that CoH would have charged (or even $10) for October would put us firmly in #2 position.
If Folks donated their uncharged November VIP Dues we would easily rival the #1 reddit who've raised $37000 now, with 680 teammembers

The current total for Team CoH for Extra Life is:
$5,357.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are ranked #19 out of 2085 teams!
With just a few days left before the campaign ends I want to encourage people again to either sign up as a participant or to donate.
EVERY SINGLE DONATION COUNTS!
You can Sign Up to participate or donate at the following link:

This is a great organization that helps millions of children every year with medical expenses. I understand a lot of people can't participate, and I understand that money situations vary from person to person. Just imagine what a small donation of even $5 would achieve if every person who read this thread donated that amount.
Be a hero to a child in need!
(Shout out to b0bcatmc who has helped me keep this thread and the Titan thread updated on a regular basis.)

Team CoH is currently ranked #18 out of 2129 teams for the Extra Life Charity campaign with a total of $5,828.33 in donations!!!!!!
Saturday 10/20 will be the 24 hour gaming marathon which means people still have a few days left to sign up to participate or to donate to a team member.
Extra Life 4 Kids raises money for various Children's Miracle Network Hospitals across the world. These hospitals treat millions of children every year and the monies raised help offset their costs for treatment for cancer, birth defects, etc.
I am asking you to please be a hero to a child in need. All donations are great donations - there is no such thing as too small of a donation...EVERY dollar raised is one more dollar that can help a child and their family.

I can't stress this enough... ALL donations are GREAT! I know some people are thinking "Meh I can't afford $20+" and that's fine... Like b0bcat said... $5 is a great donation. If we got even HALF of the forum goers to donate $5 that would skyrocket our amount.
Some of the other teams are starting to pick up some funds and are nipping at our tails....this is why we need every hero who can to donate...anything 
Currently Team CoH is ranked #22 with $3,943!!!!!!!!!!!! That is a GREAT amount and with 10 days left I am hopeful we can easily pass the $5,000 mark
Be a hero to a child in need. This campaign supports Extra Life For Kids and hundreds of various Children Miracle Network Hospitals...who provide medical care to Millions of children every year.
