We at The Rock-A-Thon would like to welcome the first of our special guests that will be joining us to make this happen, Ciji “StarSlay3r” Thornton. Some of you may remember Ciji from WCG Ultimate Gamer on SyFy or have seen her placing very high in other music game tournaments across the country.

StarSlay3r has been gaming competitively since 1998. In 2006 she decided to step it up a notch and leveled up to “Pro” status. StarSlay3r is a Free Agent that competes in tournaments for games in all genres and across multiple platforms.

While Ciji is known for her past as a Guitar Hero player, she has a total of over 30 top 5 finishes in 7 games across 3 genres. She currently is playing competitively in many games including Rock Band, Need For Speed,  Street Fighter 4, and BlazBlue. On top of working and gaming, StarSlay3r also takes time out to help out charities. She has been known to help raise money for The Autism society of America, breast cancer research, To Write Love on Her Arms, Starlight Childrens Foundation, and helping the homeless in southern California.

We are honored and excited to have Ciji join us on November 27th and thank her for her support as well in getting us in touch with many other potential sponsors and support staff. More information coming as it breaks!
