Good to see an event that actually says "we can go back to relative normality but without pretending Covid no longer exists"...

$3mill again!

That escalated quickly. $2.2 million when I went to bed and there wasn't that long left!

AGDQ2023 returns live, online from January 8th to the 15th, 2023, benefiting the Prevent Cancer Foundation!

While we would love to return in-person, we’ve determined that to provide a safe and welcoming event to all it was best that we move away from our originally planned location in Florida.

Given the state’s continued disregard for COVID-19’s dangers (including anti-mandate vaccination policies) and an increased aggression towards LGBTQ+ individuals, including the law colloquially known as "Don't Say Gay," we do not believe it is a safe place for our community at this time.

Immediately after the success of AGDQ 2020, we secured a contract with a venue in Florida to return in 2021. Since the global pandemic was declared, we postponed in-person events until it was safe to return.

We’ve explored multiple options which would allow us to remain in-person by relocating to a safer location. Unfortunately, the cost required to cancel our contract is too great to justify relocating AGDQ while paying the cancellation fee, and we are no longer able to delay our contract. This ultimately led us to move AGDQ 2023 online.

While the move to online will allow us to save some on expenses, we still have considerable costs to recover. We are looking to recover that money where possible, including with community support via Twitch subs. We thank the community for their support!

Never been to any of these events, but did they previously charge venue costs to enter?

Been enjoying having this on in the background as I work from home. Thread title needs an update?

Slightly lower amount raised than in previous years, but in this day and age raising $2.6m is still a heck of an achievement.

This Mega Man Maker game looks awesome.

This F-Zero X Expansion Pack run is really making me want to break out the N64.

Error in the title unless everything is super long this time.

Metroid Prime Remastered about to start.

They raised an impressive amount of money again but it's reducing each time at the minute. The cost of living crisis I suspect...
