Oh god its creepy

I was going to use Luna in socks, but I had to use it for something else.

On to the news!


PinkiePie Wins Surprise 4th Place for Pony Tank

Over at the World of Tanks website, they recently ran a tank skin contest. Originally there were only supposed to be three winners, but at the last minute they added a 4th... and it's a pony tank. I guess someone over there is a fan.

well, i expected more, slow night i guess...

Inconspicularity said...

I find it slightly ironic how the "nightly" roundup happens at around midday for me.

You need some brits on your staff team.

Basharoonskis said...

Not a very interesting news day, but since it's concerning a cartoon show about ponies, I suppose we have much more than we could ask for.
The Writing Training Grounds sounds pretty cool though, I could get in on that.

Ooo! A new TF2 server! I'll have to check that out tomorrow, after I make my pilgrimage to our local sites for the around the world event.

Fluttershy is always hungry for new victims (Fluttershy always wanted to be a scattergun, not a tree. Nobody bothered to ask though.)

I'm so making a pony deck now. Then I'm gunna play people with it.

Dragryphon said...

World of Tanks indeed! We have on IRC the Lunar Republic Armor Corps in #EquestriaGamers for anypony who wishes to play with us! <3

Aaah! I should have sent in one of my pony skins to the competition on world of tanks. But oh well.

To find the tank pictures faster.

Ctrl + F + Pinkie

Hah Ringtone in Grrl Power.

I'm up for a good challenge at the writing training grounds but I never learn or get better.

Yeah well I don't watch much Adult Swim anymore, none of it was ever that good.

Ugly Americans only had him saying ponies so it's not that relevant unless Rainbow Dash was in that equation.

Cereal, I swear if you ever eat another cupcake without coloring things it will come to life in your stomach and stab you, then there will be stomach acid everywhere. The cupcake will then go for your spleen next. (Take it from a monster who's minions are baked in a oven. Note: If any fruit cakes attack you beforehand for any reason I may send you support of a living lemon meringue pie and then send a cupcake to assassinate you. It'll be a tasty death if you don't color things.)

Luna said...

I was hoping for a writers version of Training Grounds, hence I proposed it to Phoe a few weeks ago.

I swear, sometimes. I think of something, somepony else runs-off with it, marries it and has many many fillies and colts.

Adult Swim is the only one that caught my attention

Wait, so you mean you posted "Story of the blank flanks" when I just recently played it and was trying to forget??? Get Out Of My Head, Sethisto

Lol Adult Swim and Ugly Americans

Haha! Ugly Americans is 20% cooler. I'm also such a nerd.

Firleycat said...

Even as a tank, You will never see Pinkie Pie coming. Kind of creepy looking tank, The eyes never stop staring at you.

FoxOfWar said...

Creator of those particular MtG cards here; the idea of trying out making some pony MtG cards popped into my head this Sunday... then I ran with it.

I think I managed to "catch the idea" best with the Rainbow Dash pair, though I also very much like how the Rarity mirroring came out.
(Subnote: I am very well aware just how ridiculously powerful some of those are... *grin*)

No, there is no "Dark Pinkie Pie"... because everyone and their brother was probably expecting a Cupcakes reference, and I for one am so sick of them by now :P

Sidenote to anyone planning on doing pony cards: don't post them on dA unless you do all the art by yourself. That site has rather wildly varying standards when it comes to posting stuff you don't own/didn't create 100%.

I might check the TF2 server out but I might just stick on Legion of ponies LEGION OF PONIES FTW

markocezar said...

WOOHOO! SOMEONE FROM THE UBER-AWESOME DEVELOPER TEAM IS A BRONY! HELL YEAH! NAYC!

Anonymous said...

haha Adult Swim
I said they were joking with their bump, and I was right.

Haileo said...

Lol, I saw that Adult Swim part on TV while watching Family Guy last night, but since I wasn't wearing my glasses, I couldn't see what exactly it said. Last night, I read "Recommended shows: ...My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Saturdays at 8 am".

PonyPonyPonyBrony said...

Dude, who couldn't love Fluttershy?

Cyl said...

Luna in socks is the best thing to happen to ponies since most of my Derpy Hooves folder. Especially her letter to /co/. She's just so cute!

Anonymous said...

Depends. what is it that you want him to color?

@Tedflip
Dude the game IS creepy right!

Delta Pangaea said...

Inb4 I talk about SotB and not the news.

Yeah, it's a creepy game, but it's a GOOD creepy. Not creepy in a 'I really wish I wasn't doing this' way.

Retl said...

DARN IT I HATE YOU FOR THAT IMAGE NOW I'M NEVER GONNA GET THAT GAME OUT OF MY HEAD DARN IT

Tedflip said...

Aww' guys, I played it 3 times D:! After the first 2 times, it got kind of fun.

I tried playing that Blanks game, but I couldn't get past the haunted house with the well. I gave the one pony the jewel I found, but that didn't help me at all, because I can't find the crank for the well! *snort stomp flick tail in irritation)

Mike Patton said...

Hi everyone! I have recently started writing a 5 chapter long fanfic. It's about a serial killer pony, but he is not a normal one... You will see later that everything isn't how it's supposed to be!

I wasn't able to post it here, because the prereaders thought it was too much... LOL! I guess I scared them pretty good, huh?

You can find my blog about it here: http://wwwatnight.blogspot.com/

James Corck said...

I was very happy to see the Adult Swim post. I squeed in my work place so now everybody knows I love ponies XD I just need a t-shirt now.

no space said...

Hahaha, I laughed so hard when I saw that Ugly Americans episode on Comedy Central. I mean, I knew it wasn't related, but obviously it was the first thing my mind jumped to, too.

Gaphiltfish said...

I would like to see some more Creepypasta fan art. (Luna Game, Story of the Blanks)

Anonymous said...

@Anonymous

SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



After you hand that one pony the gem he makes way for you to enter the house where he was blocking the entrance before. Inside is the crank



ENDSPOILER

Desigos said...

Did anyone else watch the Mega64 podcast? One of the guys thought that My Little Pony was popular because the ponies were sexualized...

Anonymous said...

Adult Swim Actually likes ponies Seth

Anonymous said...

I don't watch Adventure Time, but I'm tempted to cosplay as it just to piss off those Mega64 guys.

Anonymous said...

@Gaphiltfish luna game fanart? hell, no.
Wait, story of the blanks is creepypasta?

Like Fluttershy a lot? You must be....

Wheeljack said...

None of the guys at Mega64 watched a single MLP episode? Someone tell them to do it. I mean... they enjoyed The Powerpuff Girls, Animaniacs, Tale Spin, Rescue Rangers...
they have all the prerequisites to have a total blast with MLP.

Anonymous said...

I like Mega64, so I'm glad they didn't rip FiM too much...I'm suprised they haven't tried an episode yet though. They should get on that.

Anonymous said...

Anyone notice that Adult Swim's list contains only shows after the 9pm watershed with the exception of My Little Pony?

Frubban said...

I have Mega64 subbed, but hadn't watched the latest podcast episode. Decided to check it out now and skipped to around the 27 minute mark. First thing I heard:

"The ponies are animated in a sexualized way."

Went back a minute or so and found the beginning of the pony conversation...

"It's kind of, they're kinda that way that furry cartoons are like, have like their sexual nature to them, I think the ponies are drawn kinda like that."

Fucking lol'd.

But I guess it's understandable for someone who hasn't watched a single episode yet. I mean, at least 50% of all bronies watched the show to make fun of it before they realized how good it was, and several people called me a faggot who faps to horses before I got them to watch an episode. :P

I think they'd like the show if they gave it a chance. They did like some other stuff that some would consider "girly" or "childish".

Lief said...

Christ, those MTG cards are only a LITTLE overpowered...

Joe said...

THOSE MEGA64 BASTARDS DISLIKE ADVENTURE TIME.

Anonymous said...

@Joe

Finally! Someone else who was upset about that. When Finn sang in his autotune voice for the first time, I was hooked.

Star Gazer said...

I tried that world of tanks game a long time ago. At first it seemed like a lot of fun, then all my shots just bounced off the enemy and I couldn't help getting frustrated at the game from that point. =/

Wait... where can you find Luna Game?[/stupid]

Rainbow won't look like a tank. That's Pinkie's job.

ElectricZoNe said...

Haha, I remember when Twayne said that on Ugly Americans, I was laughing my ass off lol.
