Post GMX V.2

This year's GMX somehow managed to be even more crazy and amazing than last year's! That's not to say last year wasn't absolutely awesome, because it totally was. We were just much more prepared this time and were able to see even more new faces along with the wonderful returning ones from last year! You're all so great and I couldn't ask for a better group of people.

My highlights of the show:

-The charity auction this year blew me away. Huge thanks to Devin for buying our mask for $175!!! Also huge thanks to everyone who pitched in money to buy us at the slave auction for $200!!! I'm so glad we were able to raise so much money for Out of the Darkness. All of us and GMX personally thank you. You're all perfect.

-Celebrity D&D with the three of us and Veronica Belmont, along with Jamie Chambers and Robert J. Schwalb! Honestly, I was really afraid this would end up not reaching its potential due to only being allotted an hour's time. But Robert Schwalb, who was our DM, was such a damn pro that we were up and running in a minute or two. He was also great about going along with all of our reckless and stupid ideas. Well, mainly Joseph's reckless and stupid ideas. It ended up being a ton of fun, and considering it was mine, Joseph, and Tim's 2nd game ever of D&D, it'll be difficult to top.

-The MH Q&A panel had a great turnout! I just wish we had more time to answer all of your questions. I hope the ones we were able to get to were given satisfying answers. Brian said he felt like a princess.

-Lots of people also seemed to like our sleepy season 2 live commentary pajama party. All of us were dead tired since all of our other panels were Saturday as well, but it was a lot of fun to just hang out with all of you for a while as we made sleep deprived jokes. We're also glad we were able to show you that extra special surprise at the end of the commentary too. Thanks for sticking around, everyone!

-Chatted with Ellen Mclain again at her table and she totally remembered us! She's seriously one of the the sweetest people I've ever met, and it was an honor to see and talk with her again. We were sad that her panel was at the same time as our Q&A panel because we wanted to go so bad.

-Rob Paulsen talked with Tim and I up in the green room Friday night. He's a really supportive guy and gave Tim some great encouragement about voice acting.

-Card Against Humanity in the green room with Ben Paddon was hilarious. We ate dinner with him and lots of other people Saturday night as well. I'm pretty sure he has limitless energy.

Tons of more great stuff happened throughout the weekend but my brain is kind of still whirling around trying to make sense of it all. Regardless, I want to thank each and every one of you who came out to GMX this year. It's a perfectly sized con run by really passionate folks that aren't in it for the money, and that's something that's unfortunately rare. So big gigantic huge awesome thanks to all of you.

Oh yeah, and new MH entries coming soon.

Last second GMX update

Forgot to mention this in the previous GMX post, but we will also be participating in the Orion Slave Auction on Saturday from 10am to 1pm in the Palomino-Quarter Horse-Mustang room.

We will be auctioning off a one of a kind "Masky" mask, hand made by the same person that made the original used in Marble Hornets! It has been initialed on the inside by her, and can be signed by the rest of us at your request. Tim will also put it on his face and do a spooky dance if you're into that kind of thing.

We will also be auctioning off Breakfast/Lunch with all of us for Sunday morning/afternoon. And yeah, if you win we'll buy your food!

All of the money raised at the auction will go to Out of the Darkness walks, so please come out and bid on some stuff! If you don't want to stay for the entire three hour duration of the auction, there will be more specific times for each item/person that we'll know tomorrow. Keep an eye on my Twitter for the times the mask (and also us) will be up for auction, as well as other updates of questionable importance. Times will also be on display at our booth location.

Alright, I think that's everything. You dudes ready for this? See you there!

GMXXXXXXX

It's this weekend, dudes. Hope to see a lot of you there!

Here's our schedule of stuff:

Opening Ceremony
Friday 7pm-8pm
Champion Ballroom
-We'll try our best to be just as awkward as last year when we're introduced.

Orion Slave Auction

Celebrity D&D:
Saturday 2pm-3pm
Palomino-Quarter Horse-Mustang
-Us and some actual famous folk will try to cram in as much swording and sorcering into one hour as possible. This will be the second time we've ever played D&D, by the way. I'm hoping for a beautiful train wreck.

Marble Hornets Q&A
Saturday 4pm-5pm
Palomino-Quarter Horse-Mustang
-Come ask Tim, Joseph, and I what our favorite colors are and then watch us argue about which breakfast cereal is the best. I'm not kidding, that will probably happen.

Season 2 Live Commentary
Sunday 1am-3am (!!!)
Franklin
-Listen as we desperately try to remember funny things about shooting season 2 off the top of our heads. This was totally awesome last year because we packed the room they gave us and everyone was so rad. Let's do that again this year!

Full schedule here

Whenever we're not at one of the above things, you'll most likely be able to find us at our table in the dealer room. We'll be selling both season 1 and 2 DVDs as well as some shirts. As before, we'll sign anything you want, for exactly no dollars.

Also planning on having a few props from Marble Hornets on display at the table as well. Like a certain mask and a certain doll, maybe. Stop by and see!

And finally, we're going to have an extra special guest there with us too. Who could it be? I'M NOT TELLING.
