I just now made an account to admit i'm a dick, I figured this out yesterday mid-afternoon and I just came to apologize and discuss my results
I think I read in instructions that I would have to hold L to LOAD into the loader
but its opposite
I'm sorry.... I've had my 3ds for a while now just collecting dust. I had the week off and JUST picked up on this toolkit (by the way, THANK YOU)
It's stupid funny, I mean I had issues with almost every step but I was able to solve my issues by researching source pages (THANK YOU AGAIN FOR REFERENCES)

READ THIS IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH RXTOOLS
=========================================
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
1.) When selecting emuNAND via RxTools on loader, tap L once immediately when the screen turns black (dont wait for the splash screen)
2.) Once inside RxTools and wanting to boot into emuNAND, Immediately hold L after pressing Y
ehhhh so this is my first attempt at modding a 3ds and id have to say im pretty happy
one thing that had me stuck was the QR code for the box ninja game - it would freeze my 3ds every time ((so I went to the ninja webpage and built a new QR code, then I researched spider exploits for the web browser, found out I needed to go to a webpage for gateway to load))
I love deductive reasoning skills

so far all ive learned is how to backup my games to the 3ds ~ 5 hours active time to get to this point (factoring in TS/Research time)
