Updates from scootaloops on Rainbow Dash Network!
scootaloops: @yaya I actually bumped into him on Friday while he was in the registration line. We both had rainbow hair, which was just AWESOME. Sadly, we didn't get a chance to hang out later on. Maybe there will be some sort of sweet Chicago brony hang out sometime this summer? :0

scootaloops: @ponybis Are there any good ITG machines near #GenCon? If so, I would love to play some that weekend.

scootaloops: @ponybis I am considering attending GenCon this year. I only live an hour away from it (West Lafayette) and I have a feeling there may be at least a few bronies in attendance, so it seems like a pretty good idea. :D

scootaloops: @madflavors Good call. RDN pretty much has everything for social networking. As neat as the idea of FlankBook is, it just isn't as streamlined as the format is here.

scootaloops: @nutterguy Hello there! I recall reading on various pony-related social networks that you attended Acen. Unfortunately, I don't think our paths ever crossed. I usually live down in West Lafayette, Indiana, but my hometown is in NW Indiana, about a one-hour drive from downtown Chicago. Anywho, just thought I'd say hi and I hope the con went well for you. Due to the lack of brony meet-up organization at Acen, I'll definitely be offering my services not only at future cons, but perhaps during random times of the year or whatnot, to make sure future meet-ups can happen. :3

scootaloops: @darkcore No worries! I sometimes fall asleep on IRC/in chatrooms for hours. XD I've been talking to somepony who lives in Indianapolis (he's the admin of the "Hoosier Bronys" group on Facebook) about the possibility of a meet-up, most likely in Indianapolis or somewhere fairly central so that everypony can make it. There may not be many of us in this state, but a small get-together in Indy seems like fun to me. Any thoughts/opinions/etc. on the idea?

scootaloops: So for Anime Central I decided to dye my hair rainbow--red in front, then orange, yellow, green, blue, and finishing off with purple in the back. It wasn't perfect, but I'd say for a challenge like that the results were pretty good, and I am definitely happy with the way it turned it out. Here is the best picture I've been able to find of it so far: http://i.imgur.com/10pf1.jpg #rainbowhair #acen

scootaloops: @zarkanorf !hug It really sucks being picked on/teased, and it's difficult to forget habits one may have picked up as a result. For example, I was at Anime Central over the weekend and a close friend of mine grabbed my convention guide to check out the list of panels. Since I've so strongly associated the "grab something from me without asking" action with "I'm taking something of yours to mess with you," I immediately got upset about it. But he's a very intelligent person and quickly realized what had happened, so it all worked out.

scootaloops: @gear Thank you so much, especially for the feedback! I tried really hard to make sure the clips fit the actual context of the lyrics, even though it took me much longer to finish as a result. There are definitely a few spots where the lip-syncing isn't perfect, but after putting so much time into that video I had to accept some things not being 100% as perfect as I'd like and just get it finalized before I went nuts and got sick of the song. XD I really appreciate you taking the time to review my PMV, and I'm glad you liked it! !hug

scootaloops: @zarkanorf One person in the room asked which video was mine, but didn't say anything beyond that. Nopony else even said a word about what was going on. I stayed for another ~10 minutes to see if maybe the mod was just busy with other things and perhaps wanted some time to type out a nice critique, but then he just started chatting with others in the room. I'm sure I'm just overreacting, since it really isn't a big deal. I just have a history of being teased and ignored by classmates that lasted from grade 1 to grade 7, and those feelings get brought back up when a similar situation arises. But I really do appreciate that you and others on here are taking an interest in what happened. !hug

scootaloops: @delc17 Thank you so much! I had the same thought in my head as this was going on, but none of the 20+ others in the room seemed to care that a mod was acting so, well, un-pony. I'm quick to think that something is my fault, so I thought maybe I had accidentally annoyed everyone in the room even though I hadn't done anything. I'm glad to see somepony still has such a great attitude about friendship and kindness. !hug

scootaloops: Was just in synchtube, casually chatting and whatnot. A video ended, and I offered up my PMV as a suggestion amongst the 4 or 5 being offered by others. The moderator told me not to bother posting it again because he wouldn't play it. He said he watched it earlier and "didn't like it." I asked him what he didn't like about it, as it is the only PMV/AMV I've ever made and there are probably a lot of things I need to improve on, but he simply ignored me from that point forward. After the stressful weekend I just had and spending half of today in a hospital bed, it sucks to be told that something I made is crap and can't be shown to anyone else. Not sure what to do for the rest of the night, but I'm too awake to sleep. #feelsbadpony
