What I Did on My Summer Vacation

The following is a post from one of our clan moderators: huevos74.

Sitting at the terminal waiting for my flight to go home I am trying to collect my thoughts on this weekend’s activities. I spent the last 3 days in Tampa Florida for Destiny Community Convention 2016. I traveled 1,585.7 miles to hang out with 3,500 guardians to share our love, frustrations and excitement about our game, DESTINY. We shared admirations and accolades for streamers that entertain us, and appreciation for developers that make our lives in the tower easier. We celebrated a community that proved it is bigger than just a video game. The lead up charity stream raised over 540K dollars for St. Jude’s Hospital.

There was over 3,500 attendees, and over 1,000 more showed up to only be turned away. The sweltering Florida heat wasn’t enough to discourage a few Cosplay attendees. Warlocks and Titans and Hunters, Oh My! I counted at least 2 Warlocks, 3 Titans, and 2 Hunters.

Double Exotic Armor, Celestial Nighthawk, Tarantella, plus Thorn

Guardians about to 5 man King’s Fall

Bungie did have a presence at the event, albeit unofficial, there was a @Cozmo23 on site hiding strange coins throughout the event, which our own MindlessChaos was able to locate and win a free Rise of Iron T-shirt. Luke Smith was also spotted lurking around the crowd, shaking hands and pausing to take selfies with those that recognized him.

The panels were interesting; I found the Dev/App panel to be the most interesting. The Con utilized the popular streamer app Discord to have an open conversation with attendees and QA for panels, rather than roaming mics or unheard questions. One area was designated as “The Tower”, a booth from Kontrol Freeks was there, the popular podcast Guardian Radio had a nice little meet-n-greet booth set up. There was also a Destiny Con Merch booth, with t-shirts and posters for sale. And there was a booth from Crossroads App, which I was not familiar with.

MindlessChaos and C-Ryan jumped in a quick game of Crucible Laser Tag, I heard they won their match, GGs. I was overwhelmed and felt like hanging back and just people watching. Large crowds make me kind of anxious, so I just found a spot to take it all in.

I was able to shake hands with C-Ryan, MindlessChaos, ThuggyMcBattle, and Mrinnen. There was a large streamer presence, which to me made the event seem more like a meet-n-greet for popular streamers. I did get a pretty intense sense of community from the overall atmosphere of the Con, having never really attended a Con before this was pretty overwhelming.

All in all the experience was a lot of fun; I am looking forward to GUARDIAN CON 2017. All signs point to bigger better things for the Destiny Community, both in game and IRL. We did a good thing guardians, we can be proud of that, I am. Oh, and this guy was there too…GG.

Dublin Comic Con 2016: Sunday part 2

I was feeling far better the second day, so I was snap happy. Yet still didn’t get to meet as many as I wanted to.

So unbelievably excited to head to Dublin Comic Con this Saturday! I'll be there with the rest of the @ratpackrpg crew if you want to hang out or say hi, despite what you may have seen on our stream we're actually fairly decent human beings most of the time :) We'll be recording a special IRL Rat Pack session on Saturday night, which will be going up on youtube later this week once I've had a chance to edit. If you're new to the stream, check out our channel Rat Pack RPG on youtube, where you can catch up on past sessions. Saturday is going to be amazing, I hope to see some of you supreme nerd overlords there ;)
