Queens' Charity Clash

Age of Queens is happy to present Queens' Charity Clash: A fundraising event featuring a series of Ao2:DE showmatches played by women during Women's History Month. Teams will each represent one of two charities that support women, Girls Who Code or Games and Online Harassment Hotline, in a month-long showdown for top donations!

Players will compete individually or as a team to score points for their charity. All money donated by you the viewer will be split between the two charities based on points the players earn. Everyone who donates will essentially be supporting two organizations, but will the one you're rooting for come out victorious?

Come find out and stop by our Age of Queens Twitch Team page to find women streamers who will be playing and casting, as well as anyone in the community participating in the open streaming of this event. The opening ceremony will commence on International Women's Day, Tuesday March 8th.

We'll start off with a 4v4, all 5 games played, showmatch, followed by two weekends of multi-player events and a grand finale March 30th, featuring a 1v1 showmatch between our highest ranking players.

8th March 21 GMT: 4v4 on closed maps

Yeah, quite a few. Check out our female leaderboard:

Check our always updated leaderboard.

And not all women are in there because it's opt-in. So this has only women in there who happen to have heard about the leaderboard. Must be many more out there.

Why are you always so toxic towards any women you see on this forum?

I don't understand this passive aggressive response when you are hard stuck 1000 elo after 1600 games, even if they were 1500 elo they are much better than you

I would have hoped the charity was going to Ukraine war victims.

But i guess girls who code come a close second in terms of suffering nowadays

plz do not diminish the good work being done here, there is also charity for the most persecuted group of all: gamers

Nothing to take away from the Ukraine situation...

But isn't it clear that the charity is going to the organisation called 'Girls who Code' which aims to bridge the gender gap in computer science through supporting education programs in many countries - and not literally to some girls who code?

This event has been in the planning stages since December, as part of larger Women's History Month and International Women's Day events. It is not Age of Queens' intention to take away focus or attention from the Ukraine situation, and please I encourage people to support Ukranian charities, even if it means less funds raised for the Queens' Charity Clash. I would LOVE to see more Age events raising support for Ukraine like @DracKeN hosted last week, and many AoQ members have said the same! (link) Nothing makes me happier than seeing our Age community rally around one another for support.

These charities both represent something very important to me personally. After nearly a decade in the community, I've been told that I don't belong here many times and been the victim of harassment more times than I can count. From being told to "get raped" to actively targeted "out2Rapeashleylynn" by a clanmate when I suggested that maybe the username Out2rapeyoursister was in poor taste, I've experienced many instances of harassment even from our usually wholesome and welcoming Age community.

I'm happy to say its improved by leaps and bounds since then (these screenshots were from my early days on the HD edition back in 2014) but many women still experience harassment in gaming, even in our own community: especially on Twitch and whenever they are in the public eye. (Shoutout to the fella that asked me last year: "what rank is this girl imagine paying money to a girl streaming online and she doesn't even get naked or degrade herself a girl has nothing to contribute, they are NEVER good at competitive games, they are just doing this for attention. get naked you whore") No one deserves to receive these comments for playing a game that they enjoy, and that that is why I'm proud to be raising funds for The Games and Harassment Hotline this Women's History Month.

Last year I had the opportunity to make a big career move, from a decade of customer service experience in libraries, to a Community Team position with World's Edge. A position I KNEW I was well-qualified for, but a lack of confidence nearly stopped me from applying. If not for the support of many women leaders who I admire, and old friends who gave me tons of advice and pushes forward, I might not have taken that leap. Girls Who Code helps women to build the skills necessary to compete in the tech industry and the CONFIDENCE to seek out their dreams, and that is another cause I'm proud to stand behind.

This event is to honor and recognize women during Women's History Month, not to take away from anything else. It is to raise funds for and awareness to the types of transgressions women experience daily just by existing in a gaming space: I mean come on- it only took 2 comments to be told we weren't good enough in our own announcement thread. I hope to see some of you tuning in throughout the month as we raise funds for these charities and work toward making gaming and tech a more equitable space for women. I have nothing but love, support, and empathy to anyone and everyone affected by the unfolding situation in Ukraine. I have a heavy heart reading the news daily, and it pains me to know many of my friends (even from the Age community) are affected so deeply by this tragedy.

Appreciate the support. <3 Adversity only makes us stronger!

Also, for what its worth, Age of Queens supports anyone identifying as a woman, not just those with a particular set of organs.
