Who’s ready for a good ol’ fashioned holiday stream? You might recall the ongoing ALOS Drive that we’ve been doing to help the mod of Pegasus Lola deal with bills and get treatment for her back and gastric issues. Well, we managed to raise enough to pay off her bills, but not quite enough to get all the medicine she’ll need, and to raise the last bit of it we’ve decided to hold a grand 24-hour holiday stream. It’ll start at 2pm PST this next Friday (the 19th), and we’ll have several artists in there ready and willing to take (and stream!) your commissions! We’ll also be doing a large skype call between all the artists, and probably playing some games (Cards Against Humanity, TSSSF, and others) that some audience members may be able to join in!

Here’s the links (by Artist, by Money) to the list of artists in the drive, and the kinds of commissions they have to offer. Not all of them will be in the stream, but even those not in the stream can be commissioned. The host (Me, ALOS, or Shuttershade) will just have to send the information to the artist.

Here’s how the stream will work: There’s going to be the main channel, and 8 side channels. The main channel is where the call will be, any games that’re going to be played, and where the host of the stream will be. If an artist who can stream gets commissioned, they’ll sign into one of the side channels and start streaming there. It sounds confusing, but all of these channels can be loaded up by clicking here. It’ll make more sense when you see it in action, and we’ve designed it so there’s as little work on the audiences end as possible.

On the right there’ll be a chat, and at the top of that buttons showing which streams chatroom you’re in. Please make sure that’s set to alostreamhost. The individual channel chatrooms can be used to message artists who are streaming, say if you commissioned something and want to share references/ask for changes/etc. As well, I would recommend muting all the streams except for alostreamhost (the one in the middle). You can fullscreen alostreamhost as well if youw ant to.  If your computer can’t handle loading up all these streams, even though most of them will be off at any given time, you can click here to only load up the main channel.

STREAM RULES:
- No bold/italic/underline
- No roleplaying
- No links unless you ask first and the host allows it

Here’s how commissions are going to work, in short:
1. Commissioner asks for a commission, says what it is they’d like to commission from who
2. Information is sent to the artist, either through the host or through them being in the stream
3. Artist accepts commission, commissioner pays money to host
4. Once the host receives the money, the artist starts drawing
5. Artist draws the image; upon completion, host sends money to ALOS

As well, for every $20 we raise, we’ll go on for an extra hour beyond the 24! We’ve prepared to go as far as midnight on Sunday, so if we raise enough money the 24-hour stream could turn into a 58-hour one! I hope we’ll have enough games and things to fill that time with… but I’m sure we’ll figure something out.

I’ll reblog this post again once we get closer to the date, including a list of which artists will be participating and the times they’ll be on. Hope to see you all there!
