ABOUT
It's simple. We play seventy-two hours of non-stop Minecraft live via Twitch TV. Think of it like a reality TV show. The cameras never stop rolling, so for the entire weekend, we're here to entertain you.All we ask in return is that you spread the word, and if you feel so inclined, to Donate to
Child's Play Charity. All donations are processed securely through PayPal, and go directly to Child's Play Charity. The MineThon Volunteers can't touch or make a cent.
In fact, apart from the generous contributions of our sponsors, MineThon is funded entirely out of pocket. To date, the MineThon Volunteers have funded $1000 into MineThon and raised over $15,000 for
Child's Play Charity. We see it as a charitable profit, and we're proud of those numbers. (FAQ)

Hailing from the land of skyscrapers and big apples is Ethan, MineThon's Event Coordinator! If something needs doing, it’s his job to do it. He handles everything from tweeting to shipping. Ethan sleeps, sometimes.
Ethan started playing Minecraft in Alpha 1.0.17. Spider Jockeys were added in that patch!
What do you call a Frisbee-loving geek with a microphone? Holdeman, MineThon’s Crowd Hyper! There’s never a lull when he’s around, guaranteed. If there is, we’ll fire him!
Holdeman started playing Minecraft in Release 1.1.1. Spawn Eggs were added in that patch!
This guy’s a loose screw, who’s never seen a screwdriver! It’s Isaac, MineThon’s half-there Host! He’s barbecued in the rain at 3 am, befriended two-headed grasshoppers and met hobo martial artists. He enjoys doing Wario impressions, and hates polka dots.
Isaac started playing Minecraft in Beta 1.0.2. Cake was added in that patch!
Mix one part geek and two parts crazy, and you have Marcus, MineThon’s hectic Hippy! When you meet him, you’ll notice two things, his hair and his laugh. He's one groovy dude.
Marcus started playing Minecraft in Alpha 1.1.1. Sneaking was added in that patch!
Some say he's a pirate! Some say he's Evan, MineThon's Programmer! When he's not swinging foam swords and screaming ARRRR, Evan keyboards it up—computer and piano. His programs are smooth and his performances, smoother.
Evan started playing Minecraft in Alpha 1.0.17. Fences were added in that patch!
