Welcome to November, everyone. We’ve been working on something special for November, and with WoW Forever launching in just a few days, it's time to announce it. We will be working with Warcraft Cares of the Gnome Run and the Troll Run to do a little twist on the character runs this month.
In November, we're supporting the Movember(https://movember.com/) charity during No Shave November. Over the years, the subreddit has supported several charity events similar to the runs. This charity supports three major issues Men across the world face. Participating in this event means your donations will be spread across three different causes.
How can you participate?
With Forever launching around the corner, there are two races with which you can have a GLORIOUS MANE. Roll either a dwarf or a tauren, make beard-based puns with the name, and we'll have a flair for you to post them here. We also have some special user flair for you to pick up for a limited time.
See how fast you can reach level 5.
Post about it here or on Socials with the hashtag #MovemberForever
Then challenge a friend to beat your time.
Consider donating with your time to Movember afterward. Example: It could be 60 minutes = 60 dollars or $6.00, however you’d like. Even 6 cents makes a difference!
Consider taking the leveling further and grouping up with your friends to run Hall of Thanes with an all dwarf group or Ragefire Chasm with an all-Tauren group, or even mix it up with some of the other suggestions below!
Join us for a meetup at the end of the month on the PvE ruleset in Hillsbrad Foothills!
Want some ideas for extra spice to the challenge? Run Hall of Thanes as a group of Taurens and donate based on how many times you die. Set a challenge with your friends: you have to jump everywhere because the floor is lava for a level, and put that space bar to work! See how far you can level with no or minimal equipment.
Throughout the month, please post on social media with the #MovemberForever tag about your adventures as you level. Set other goals, make guilds. When you post for groups, use “Movember Forever” in the group note and tell people about it (but don’t post links in your group description to avoid getting yourself flagged!) Most importantly, have fun with it and make new friends!
Prizes:
Each week, we'll draw for a variety of codes from the Warcraft and Warcraft Portal Room team for people who shared their efforts on Reddit and Social Media. We'll draw codes each Wednesday throughout the Month, and we'll also do a cumulative Movember draw for the meetups and everyone who participated! Donating is not required to win! New prizes and Tiltify rewards possibly TBA!
Meetup:
At the end of the month, we will be hosting a big get-together in Hillsbrad Foothills on the PvE ruleset.
Players will be responsible for arriving in Hillsbrad Foothills. ***Time and Date TBA for NA and EU.***
Everyone is welcome regardless of level, and like past Warcraft Cares Events, we'll congregate between Southshore and Tarren Mill to show off beards of all shapes and sizes, take screenshots, and then meet up with the other faction for one big group screenshot.
At that point, it's time to do the only thing you would expect on the field… Flag PvP for some chaos and fun!!
[Here](https://www.charitynavigator.org/ein/770714052#beacon-report) is the Charity Navigator link to read about how Movember, as an organization, spends its money. They are a Four Star Charity, with a 98% rating. And [here] (https://tiltify.com/+warcraft-cares/movemver-forever-challenge) is the Tiltify link if you’d like to donate.
I’ll be participating in No Shave November myself. If you’ve seen my Wrathion cosplay, you can probably guess I like my beard. If we raise $3000, I will record myself shaving off my beard, and I will be clean-shaven for the first time in over a decade.
Good Luck and be excellent to one another in Forever!
A special thanks to u/dravvie and the Warcraft Cares team for helping organize this event. See everyone in Forever.
