A year ago today I was in Austin. I had never loved a place more than i did there. I hope i can go back next year. I already miss the warmth of the texas heat. ❤ To all going to RTX. Have fun. Be safe. And stay hydrated.

No, but the thing that really bothers me about M&K...

Is their refusal to take criticism, let alone politely. I was at RTX16 and went to the Saturday RWBY panel. At the end of most panels, they open the floor to questions from the attendees. One guy got up and mentioned that a lot of fans felt Pyrrha's death in the season 3 finale was a cop-out or not well done, and asked for their thoughts on the matter. M&K (and even Gray) immediately shot the kid down. Can't quote them word for word from memory, but it went something like this, "This has been planned since the beginning, and if someone doesn't like it, sorry." No consideration for the kid's question, no answer except your typical "don't like, don't watch" that RT fanatics pin us RWBY critics with here on Tumblr. 

However, that is not answer, and their refusal to take criticism from the fans that basically fund their doings says a lot about the kind of writers and people M&K are. In fact, I'm almost willing to give a pardon to Kerry, as it is Miles we always see posting on Twitter about either RWBY or the infamous "Korra missing it by a mile" post. Still, Miles Luna needs to learn to accept criticism instead of immediately passing things off if they threaten to harm his fragile ego. 

I felt so sorry for the guy who asked the question, and perhaps it was then my disdain for Miles began. You don't just shoot down a fan like that. Several other people then got out line at the shutdown, so it was obvious they probably had other critiques and figured, "well that's not going to work." 

So I implore you, Miles, Kerry, even Gray, LISTEN to our criticisms. I can guarantee you that most of our critiques aren't meant as blatant, personal attacks. Some? Sure, but you need to learn to distinguish those from true critiques where our only interest is the betterment of this show that we all love.

So I finally get to tell this story now that the video is out! I participated in the Hitman Immersion at RTX 2016. It was an amazing experience and I would absolutely do it again. You see the girl in these pictures? The blonde with the white headband and the blue mask? That’s me. I am the one who had “Rooster Brut” spilled all over me by a certain Michael Jones. And I want to tell what happened.

So, as an “NPC”, each of us had tasks to perform and places to go. My tasks started me on the balcony, took me to the first floor near the stage, then back up to the second floor. The directors (i.e. Blaine) informed us that we should be sure to avoid getting in front of the cameras when they were pointed towards Mike Hawk (Shannon McCormick). So, I’m taking my rounds and I notice that Mike Hawk is at the table in the middle, so I decide to go behind the column so as to avoid blocking him from camera view. However, I was walking past the table with the refreshments and right in front of me was a very suspicious looking individual. I immediately knew who it was, but if we recognized them solely by fame, we weren’t to say or do anything out of the ordinary (like report them). So I just kept walking, because I knew it would be awkward for me to turn around, and he was already walking toward me anyways. I tried to scoot past him, but there really wasn’t that much room and he spilled literally every one of those drinks on me. Fun Fact: They voiced over me! I was speechless. I had no idea what to do. Michael also did voiceover, apparently, because as he spilled the drinks on me, he actually muttered “Just keep moving like nothing happened...” then proceeded to inform Kyle that a waiter had just spilled some drinks. Clearly, he got caught. But after the fact, Blaine was talking to everyone about what was considered suspicious activity. I was in the balcony, and I yelled out, “If we get juice spilled all over us by a waiter, is that considered suspicious activity?” The whole room burst into laughter and Blaine said that, yes, that was suspicious activity. They decided to take a break and I walked down the stairs to go get as dry as possible (though I smelled like grape juice the rest of the evening). Blaine met me on the stairs and talked to me for a minute, as did Tyler, and we laughed about what had happened. Michael was also on the first floor, so I marched up to him and said “You spilled drink all over me!” and he said some smart alleck comment that I can’t remember. I asked if he would at least give me a hug and he was like “Sure, just don’t get me wet, dear God!” 

Needless to say, this was a great experience. I got to interact with so many of the Rooster Teeth employees on such a casual level, and I got paid! (They gave us $15 for dinner that night - I consider myself an official RT employee now ;] lol) Plus an amazing shirt that I wear all the time. To anyone who has an opportunity to be a part of an immersion, I would say, DO IT! Especially if it is one of a game you’re really interested in! (I love watching Hitman gameplay, so it was even better for me, IMO).

Thanks @roosterteeth for a great experience and making me smell like grape juice as I went on a fancy date with my boyfriend that night.

Last year, my Halo Vanguard became priceless to me. Why? Because I was able to get all of Grifball Hub signatures (excluding H2o camper) as well as @ducain23 and @andydudynsky aka "Bravo". I don't care if people think I decreased the value, last year was an amazing moment. #gamer #gaming #pics #photography #reallife #RTX2016 #GAEMS #Vanguard #PGE
