THE JERRY STEFEK MEMORIAL CRAWL FOR THE CURE – ETHERMEET!
…POWERED BY DUNGEON CRAWL CLASSICS
CRAWLERS CAME… CRAWLERS CONQUERED… HEROES BROUGHT HOPE TO THOSE NEED! THANK YOU FOR A VERY SUCCESSFUL JSMCFTC 2023: ETHERMEET!
First, an apology. Cory took some time for some personal and professional tasks and commitments after Ethermeet, and this wrap-up of the event is terribly late. I hope you can forgive me for taking this time. I thank you for your understanding.
On Saturday, December 9th, 2023, six Judges of incredible merit ran games from 7 AM CST until 3 AM CST with amazing players in the best roleplaying systems around to dazzle and entertain our most revered patrons which enabled us to earn $3,291 for the American Cancer Society! 20 hours of awesome RPG entertainment and prizes for your generosity! THANK YOU for your incredible support! See the pics and full details in our sum-up post for Ethermeet 2023!
The Jerry Stefek Memorial Crawl for the Cure: Ethermeet will again be on the second Saturday of December, the 9th! We raised $4185.55 for the American Cancer Society last year, we refused to take any less than $5,000 at our Gamehole Con 2023 Take Back Tegel Manor! event! We will once again target surpassing $5,000 for our goal at Ethermeet this year!
This year we are extending the coverage of the event for the West Coast! We’ll be running from 7 AM on Saturday, December 9th, 2023 and running all the way through to 3 AM CST! Luau Lou of Dandyline Games and Brian Shutter of Super Savage Systems are planning something special, and they will be running “late night”: they will be cooking up some entertaining RPG runs in the genre of the late-night horror movie schlocks of times past! It will be awesome! Definitely something you’ll not want to miss with these creatives!
Ethermeet is a “play-a-thon”-style event that will be hosted on Twitch channel DCC Mayhem to do Good for the American Cancer Society. ALL donations will go to the American Cancer Society and its Good works!
Check out the awesome line up of Judges that will entertain you throughout the day!
