Sarah Parries's Jenner

It's seldom that I put up OOC posts, well not that often, but this is not just OOC, its OOG (Out of Game) but I see a need to.

SL is probably not the only game most people play (if you even call it a game), and likewise Mechwarrior Online (MWO) is one I happened to be on. However in the realms of MWO, something tragic happened in May. One of our youngest mechwarrior, Sarah Parries, a 5 years old girl passed away due to cancer. In memory of her, a special mech (the super size heavy metal battle machines) was created with greenish paint, a teddy bear logo as well as a pink unicorn.

While many of us had passed on each and every day, and some do have a decent virtual influence, none had been like this. This is sad even though Kitty has 9 lives. The mech created is sold for USD$10 and all purchased donated to Canada Cancer Society in memory of little Sarah. It had raise almost USD$100K by now and for once I said the money was well spend (not on the mech) but for a good cause.

I know this is basically a SL blog, but for once, I am breaking the rules and posting this. If you are not on Mechwarrior Online and/or doesn't want to start, there is way to donate directly too, but one other way is to ask around and see if your friends or relative do play and sponsor him or her on the mech if he / she had not purchased it. Then again, why not just join MWO for fun?
