Weiss was mispelled "Wiess." The spellcheck police have been notified.
I'm not into the Pokemon Go craze but wasn't someone trying to figure out what Teams the RWBY cast would fall into, if they got into it? Nvm, it was which Hogwarts Houses they would be sorted into.

I'M MR. MEESEEKS, LOOK AT ME!So, I have a question for all of you about Rooster Teeth's policy with their videos. Do you think they're fair and is going against them "fair use"? Because someone has a video up of ep 4 of this volume on You Tube, and they're apparently monetizing it.
Yeah, I didn't think calling it Fair Use was right. Honestly, it just seems like another case of entitled "fans" demanding things right when they want it or anything is justified to give them what they want.
Anyway, the video has a lot of dislikes and has been reported multiple times (I also reported it) so we'll see what happens there.
Well, if you meant to ask if RT's policy is reasonable, that's certainly an appropriate question.
Even though distribution is entirely within the creator's rights, some polices are a total slap in the face. Aniplex charging $400 USD for a 24 episode anime series, etc
But for RT, they offer the whole series for free. Subscribers get it a day earlier than free accounts, a week earlier than Youtube. If someone doesn't want to make an RT account that's fine, but they have no right to complain about the delay in that case. Same for subscribing.
I definitely agree such fans are being entitled for wanting it earlier without being prepared to do anything to support the series.
Admittedly, I don't see how creating a free RT account is supporting them in any way. I guess it increases the ad revenue on their site?
Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!
I'm not even sure about it either. I don't think I've actually seen an ad on their website that doesn't relate to themselves anyway, so they wouldn't be particularly hoping you'll click on ads to give them revenue - I can only assume they're satisfied with how you may one day eventually buy something from them after seeing their ads for their own stuff. Considering their obviously pretty-close relationship with their community, it may be a concept similar to a free-to-play game that sells nothing but cosmetics - there's not much logical draw to their merchandise directly relating their content that you consume save for you one day deciding "I like them and I want that".
A specific grimm can breathe lightning. Like a blue dragon (even though it's a black and white dragon)
Shouldn't Yang have been shiny in that match along with Ruby?
Anyway, about SSSN's match, I think we should realise, Cinder arranged that match for the purpose of making them lose and they won anyway. The environments were deliberately set to give SSSN the biggest disadvantage possible. As such, I don't see how we should assume anything other than that Cinder rigged the match against them. And again, they won anyway. They won in a match up that was deliberately made to be a bad match up for them. As such, I assume SSSN normally does better in their fights.

Why do you think Cinder rigged that against them? Why do you think Cinder gave two shits about SSSN in her master plan?
Also, I keep wanting to pronounce it "Season", because that makes way more sense. If it's supposed to be pronounce "Sun", it should be SNNN, and everyone but Sun's name should start with an N.
My various fanfics.Cinder was shown to be deliberately choosing the match ups and arranging wins because she was trying to get the best opportunity for discrediting the schools in the finals. Now, NDGO specifically pointed out that giving them desert was home field advantage for them and getting beach is the absolute worst environment a team with Neptune on can get. It was literally the worst possible environment combination SSSN could have gotten and we know Cinder's deliberately choosing the environments.
I don't see how another interpretation could be likely
EDIT: Also, NDGO was called out as an incredibly popular team, and therefore an excellent target for Cinder to discredit in the finals.
EDIT: SSSN on the other hand, while having some popularity, is also led by a Faunus who struggles with culture and has little respect for the law, and is thus less spotless prior to being discredited.

It was shown in the fight between CFVY and CMEN that Cinder uses her scroll to choose the teams and environments, so her presence changes nothing, and also that she chooses the participants and environments literally hours before the audience finds out, so again, her presence means nothing.
As for not knowing, Sun didn't keep it a secret, so it probably wasn't hard to find out.
On the other hand, RWBY's wins were probably arranged for them. Not only is Yang easy to discredit, the team also has a Schnee, a Faunus pretending to be human (which Cinder would know due to Adam) and they're led by an underage girl. They were easy targets for discrediting and we know that discrediting Yang was in their plan.
EDIT: I wonder if CMEN's canon pronunciation is supposed to be "Cinnamon".

I think you're really reaching and that we'd actually get some sort of hint if Cinder was screwing with those matches given how this series has no subtlety.
The fact that the results kind of fit that idea means very little when Cinder's plans are vague enough you could twist anything into appearing to be part of them.
There is the conversation before the JNPR fight which could be considered a clue to cinder having an influence on who fights who. Cinder was also had her people getting information so they would really only need to follow Neptune to know he is afraid of the water since ankle deep water freaked him out.
If we go with the idea that cinder was fixing matches to ensure potential maiden candidates moved upwards with less trouble it would be possible she was doing it from the start.

.
The fact that SSSN got such a bad environment combination is the hint that Cinder screwed them over. Do you have any idea how unlikely such a bad combination would be otherwise? And we are explicitly shown that she's deciding those match ups. I consider the idea that she didn't do it to be ridiculous.
I mean, the same thing happened in JNPR's math. JNPR got the best environment they could get. They got a lightning storm for a team with Nora on it. It's really obvious that Cinder was arranging that.
Then there's the fact that Weiss got environments covered in dust crystals and Neon ended up on unstable terrain, which negates her biggest advantage.
EDIT: I mean we see her choose the match ups on her scroll with our own eyes.

Oh, alright. Not immediately obvious, but is cool thing.
