We’re sharing this almost 2 months late, but… WOW! Check out this incredible gift one of our longtime Encounterers made and mailed us for our 10 year anniversary! 🥳 Yes, that’s our logo, made with every musical’s thumbnail — in release order — from our first decade on YouTube! (We double-checked, it’s really all of them!) 👀 We’re constantly reminded how creative and thoughtful our community is, and now we have ANOTHER beautiful reminder to hang beside those #YouTube Play Buttons! 🥰 I’d consider hanging it on one of our fan art walls, but… well… those are pretty full already! Time to get a bigger house? 😇 The photo doesn’t quite capture this poster, but if you zoom in, you can probably spot a few musicals you recognize 😉 (and possibly some you don’t!) #10YearsOfRE #ThankYou #Encounterers #randomencounters https://www.instagram.com/p/CSNBCrllt2C/?utm_medium=tumblr

Thank you all for celebrating yesterday with us! After an almost 5 hour livestream, we decorated and devoured a delicious, over-the-top Beard birthday cake. 😋 Not the most glamorous way of celebrating, but definitely the Random Encounters Way! 😎 Technically, the very first members (founders?) of the RE community also originated ten years ago, so in a way, yesterday was your birthday, too! 🥳 Happy 10th year, Encounterers! We wouldn’t be here today, making new musicals, without you and your years of support. 🥰 I’d squish a piece of messy, aggressively frosted Beard cake through my phone to each of you, but in lieu of voiding my phone warranty, let’s settle for our first big text-based Beard Salute as YouTube ten year olds. 🤓 To many, many more years of music and memories together… BEARD SALUTE! 🥂 #10YearsOfRE #happybirthday #Encounterers #beardsalute #randomencounters https://www.instagram.com/p/CP477oupS_7/?utm_medium=tumblr

When you’re too lazy to take down Halloween decorations, and thankful to own enough weird hats to make it work. 😌 We hope you’re having an awesome Thanksgiving today! We’re so thankful for YOU, because without you, we wouldn’t get to geek out every month making video games into musicals! The RE community has changed our lives and we can’t truly thank you enough for making this incredible career possible. Today is a wonderful reminder to count your blessings, and we’ve got a few million to count. 💕 #ThankYou #HappyThanksgiving #Encounterers #Blessed #randomencounters https://www.instagram.com/p/CIEiuBbJsvO/?igshid=1fq5o6ruliaw9

A world in need of justice still deserves a laugh here and there. SuperCat™️ is here to provide both. This video has been on my phone since #E3 last year, but I felt bad putting it up at Mr. Meowse’s expense. 😂 This week, though, I think it’s worth it. Since we CLEARLY can’t rely on SuperCat to conquer injustice (sorry, Mr. Meowse!), we’ve made additional donations to Black Visions Collective, Reclaim the Block, Know Your Rights Camp, and Unicorn Riot... and we ask that you’d join us! Even a small donation can make a big difference (and also spare SuperCat from making a fool of himself on the internet again.) Thank you for supporting your fellow Encounterers, creators, and Americans. #thankyou #encounterers #randomencounters https://www.instagram.com/p/CBB5gi-JfNw/?igshid=1kg4xp2y8n72a

Got some photos with a few special fans today! These are my friends Gillian and Nathan. Gillian was cosplaying a certain sparkly vampire... and even brought a magical spellbook (guess what was written on Chapter 54, page 105!) and a spare kazoo for me to play along with her! Nathan has been one of RE’s Patreon backers for YEARS and gained the nickname “Lavapants” on the ancient RE Minecraft server... so he designed his own lava pants and wore them to the convention! 🤣 We’ve met a ton of other incredible Encounterers this week (and are probably getting tagged in a lot of their photos), and wish we could highlight every single one of them! 😊 We’re excited to be spending tonight doing a YOUTUBE CAMPFIRE STORIES panel with them, despite the schedule insisting it’s a Behind the Scenes event... 😅 Either way, it’ll be terrific — like the rest of the day has been! #conaltdelete2019 #convention #cosplay #encounterers #randomencounters https://www.instagram.com/p/B6WlNsbpUe0/?igshid=qbyvshdousxv

Met up with a few fans at the beach yesterday for lunch! 🏖 Nick and Lori have been backing #RandomEncounters for a long time, so it was great to see them for a bit while they were here in California! 😎 Thanks for interrupting your vacation to hang out with us, you two! 🌞 #Encounterers #vacation #meetup https://www.instagram.com/irl_encounters/p/BzEOP0Cpnzs/?igshid=1xjgswng7e9vy
