But not in a destructive kind of way, of course.
🤣 If they read FT, I suspect they don't like me very much for constantly complaining about the IT, refund policies, etc... Then again, I've also been called an apologist many times, so maybe they'll see me as exactly the type of balanced person they should invite for an honest perspective

I'll never get invited through normal channels. You probably won't either, for the same reason, but also due to lack of MM. There are simply too many SEs to invite them all to every event.
So what you're saying is I need to accelerate achieving MM status? And possibly change my address to the vicinity of upcoming cool events?

Well what did you finish 2012 with?
I don't know. When did they create the different levels of E? Whatever year that was, I started it at 35K, and ended it at 50K or 75K. First year I qualified for SE was 2013 though.
