Tomorrow's Best Pony: Octavia
It's news time after the break!
How much of a Brony are you?
Someone named Twinkle Star (Yep, that's the name!) has created a quiz for everyone to take that determines just how much of a brony you are.
Fortunately, I'm 90%! Get owned!
You can find it here!
Drawball Wars Round 4!
Get your asses over there and fix her!
Onemorelevel.com Promotes Story of the Blanks As It's Daily Game!
It looks like Story of the Blanks has taken the top slot on yet another flash game website. Pretty impressive! Now we just need some big game company to pick it up and create a full on epic out of it.
You can find it here.
Adventure Quest Team Goes Pony
 |
| Yep, that's an alicorn |
Another gaming team has gone pony. The people over at Adventure Quest have created a bunch of ponysonas for themselves. I remember playing this game in highschool! Pretty neat to see them convert to ponydom.
You can find their page here!
Soft Equestria Comics
Someone has created a parody site to the Softer World comics. They are pretty...artistic!
You can find the pony versions here!
Thinking With Ponies Updates!
The Portal 2 pony mod team has released a bunch of little updates for everyone to drool over. Using more of those fancy mathematics, that have determined pony/prop sizes using...apples as measurements. I guess that is technically the best way to do it!
If you are interested in following their progress, you should probably head on over to the Thinking With Ponies Blog!
Magical Pony Theater 3000 Project Seeking Help!
A Group of people over on ponychan need some assistance in building a ponified version of Mystery Science Theater 3000. If you are interested in helping out with the project, hit up the ponychan thread here (Though as of 2:05 AM PST Ponychan appears to be down or something)!
They also set up a synchtube channel for various things, including MST3K episodes. That can be found here !
Brony Google+ Contest
The Brony Central group over on Google+ is currently hosting weekly contests for various rewards.
This week the goal is to either create either a drawing, or a comic, depicting some form of creepy Slenderman style character in ponyville.
If you are interested, check out the page here!
In other news, it sounds like Google+ has joined the facebook anti-pony brigade. I've received several emails about bannings for pony names. It is technically against the ToS though! There is always Flankbook!
Ponemon
Not a huge amount to show for this one, but someone is trying to create a pokemon style pony game.
If you want to follow it's progress, check out the page for it here!
Equestria Daily News
Do you guys want Equestria Daily shirts? I've considered adding something like that after receiving a few emails about various items people make with EQD Logos on them. I wouldn't be able to put show ponies on it (copyright and all) but, subtle hints could be added (Like the Fibers shirts)
Anyway, just an idea!
Cereal has something to say to you all
Dear Princess Celestia,
Today I learned that ponies are fooled by bad CNN logos, can indeed tell the difference between a German and an American tank, and don't know that blog time is two hours behind Central time.
You Faithful Student, Cereal

Statistical Analysis of EQD's Pageviews
Some crazy math brony named Interrobang Pie has worked his calculation voodoo on the page views of the site. It includes all sorts of formulas that my sad little college algebrain(I typod that, but though it looked cool, so it stays) can't even begin to comprehend.
You can find the full report here!

EQD IRC Chat Room
160 comments:
don't put Sethisto in charge of the shirts, he's a mad pony and I can't spell his name.
SECOND
No you're not, I stole every fancy position.
fuck logic
YES!!! Finally, I can go straight to the embed without having to use the search bar. Not that it matters really, as it takes only a few seconds away from chatting.
Silly Cereal, you can't be Cereal Johnson AND troll us without changing the in-picture clocks to Pacific Time.
Damn, I used to play AQW. Didn't know they liked the show as well.
"and don't know that blog time is two hours behind Central time."
What's that one a reference to?
Puny Seth and his 90% bronyness! I'm 93%! Kneel before me!
86% brony... would be higher if i had the disposable income to throw my room into Fluttershy colors...
Graphs are cool.
I'm 50% Brony.
I take care about the show and i like to see what the community do, but i don't want more.
Pfft. Nightly Roundup hits about midday for me. The posting times also don't sync to my time zone. Basically time means nothing to me on this site!
That's what you get when you put ponies in charge of the stuff nature normally handles.
230/260, or 88% brony-ness.
94%!
And I'm off to the drawball for the I don't knowth time.
Im 62% brony, better than what I thought I would get, but thankfully those show based questions bumped up the score. :)
I got 90% on the test, i am as brony as Sethisto #WINNING
87%, I bombed the merch ones XD
I got 76%. Victim of circumstances.
47%. Aced all the trivia questions, but fell pretty damn short on personal and/or community involvement.
...Jesus, in retrospect I'm the lowest one yet.
78% Brony... Must spread the herd...
Umm Seth? You seem to be missing a link to Ponymon.
Other news, the main Bronies facebook page got shut down...again.
I got a 66% on the Brony test, meh.
I should get better.
Where's the link for ponemon? :<
70% brony and I know about ponies like 2-3 weeks now...
@WTBrony Again?! What does FB have against our friendship?
80%, mostly because I've never been the sort to actively buy merchandise for any of my fandoms.
@ChaosIzGood
Mark Zuckerberg is obviously a parasprite.
Also, 88% Brony. Yay.
@Interrobang Pie:
Were those the same data Points I posted on the 20 million hits post a while ago?
http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/07/20-million-people-clicked-on-this-site.html?showComment=1311273484764#c8083734224471905588
If not, maybe you could use the additional points to become even more accurate :)
The math is nice btw. but wouldn't it be easier to use Excel / google spreadsheets and upload the data / diagram for every brony instead of explaining the math?
I think the test site is straining under the load, but 72% for me, i'm happy with that.
Sadly I'm out of ink for the drawfriend, spent my offtime while studying trying to defend Fluttershy's eyes (since she is the best pony today after all).
@BlankFlankBrony
oh my gosh me to 88%
181 of 260; 70%. Class C.
I'm okay with it.
*sigh*
ok, Trixie's eyes are all fixed up now. Highlights in the right place, actually purple...
85% Brony... I need to deck out my car in Rarity merch.
52 % from quiz. But that is something I honestly don't care. All hail for being cool with your own originality!
I haven't been involved with the Drawball thing, but I got sort of fascinated by it yesterday and it's actually pretty awesome what Ponychan's done.
From what I can tell:
ponies were appearing on Drawball.
They were getting griefed by a group called the Noelistes, which is like the French 4chan.
Ponychan responds by making a pony for the Noelistes.
Noelistes are all ":O.... :D"
Now they're talking about drawing a huge pony for their next raid, or including "<3 Ponychan" on whatever they draw.
It's pretty cool, Ponychan have basically won over a 4chan-type group with friendship.
68%
Would be higher if I had the income for ponies, but saving up to repay school loans come first I'm afraid.
And another game appears. The good thing is, with all these games being worked on, the chance that at least one game making it to completion is almost guaranteed.
43% brony here. The show doesn't affect my life much and those trivia questions were insultingly easy! Let's see if I'll stay the lowest.
Is it just me or are the Soft Equestria comics a bit depressing? Why does everything that tries to be artsy end up some sad tragic mess.
I remember play Adventure Quest while in secondary school. I got fed up with all the good stuff being reserved for people who paid 5 dollars. Maybe they will offer a brony discount now.
70% brony, Alright not bad. Curse the fact I live in pony deprived area.
87% not bad. But needs more harder trivia questions from the show
Your score: 67 %
Okayy.
I personally felt a few of the questions were unfair - I mean I listen to all music to headphones,not just pony.
ah...i remember AQWorlds good times....
93% Brony, only lost points on merchandise questions because I can't find any.
37%, mostly because of the cartoon related questions, which were really easy. As for community-brony questions, listen to pony tracks on earphones, browse some fanart, and that's about it.
oh dear... 97%
92%. Not bad, I need to work harder!
86%
I feel good about this.
I can't believe that Interrobang Pie used trial and error to get that equation... there are far quicker methods to use.
Also I don't think that the line will stay on a perfectly exponential curve, though like he said it was only for fun, not for accuracy.
I got a 78%.
That's cool, IMO. I am not fully bronified, though I blame Hasbro for not bringing the merchandise to Spain! I need my pony dolls, damnit!
I think I'm 72% cooler.
Pony merchandise unavailable in my country and food habits have downed my score. But that's fine.
It didn't work for me.
I did the quiz, and I know I got at least half of them right, but it said I got absolutely no score.
63% (165 of 260). There's some room for improvement, though. (when I'll be able to get my hooves on some merch)
I think the test is broken. I got 0%.
0%
What? That can't be right!
I think the quiz might be broken for me. I'm certain I at least got all the trivia questions right.
I'm 75% (195/260 points) Brony. :D
Yea, 0% here too, sounds broken.
According to the quiz I'm not a brony. 0% lol Obviously the quiz isn't working properly right now
90% :D!!
There's a fluttershy hater on Drawball. Get him/her!
Got an 83%
Pony show questions were to easy and it doesn't take into account that not all of us have the income to buy shirts/toys even if we really want to. Also I may love ponies but its not going to change my eating habits, that question was very weird XD
63% Brony.
...I don't mind. At all. I don't think dreaming about ponies or wanting to be one makes me any less a brony than most. I totally nailed the trivia, at least (admittedly it wasn't very difficult).
I got 159/160 ~yay
74% ?
Oh my, I have to work on that one.
I would love to buy merchandise when it's available in my country AND looks like in the show.
I don't want a pink Celestia ...
It's unfortunate... but I can't get above 75% mainly due to my age. I don't have the ability to go out and buy my own items and so I lost about 10% or more, not to mention my sheer inability to draw effectively lost me some more. I believe if I was a little better off I would be 90% brony as well, but for now, I'm fine being as I am. I do however wish I could buy some merchandise just to support the show xD.
I got 95%...
Well, thank you for mentioning our test! Now we got thousands of bronies taking the test and there is no time where we can update the questions and answers (It isn't ready yet! :P)
At those who had 0%: That happens if I update the questions/correct errors while someone is taking the test.
Thanks a lot for your feedback!
I got 80%, mostly because I don't really draw fan-art or buy any merch.
84% Good enough considering Pony merchandise isn't available in my area.
I fully aprove of a softer equestria
A softer world is my favourite webcomic which is often quite dark, so seeing it with ponies is quite cathartic
Okay, looks like I got 53%. That's not too bad, is it?
I got 88% on the quiz. Sadly, on on the questions didn't have an option for Ponifying your garden.
@Buster Arg! 'on one question' sorry. That's what I get for not checking.
91% Brony, Had to answer 'She's a Silly Pony' for question 19.
97%
I guess I'm pretty addicted.
@Buster
Garden? Well, we didn't think about that. Will be added. Thx.
88% on the brony quiz.Pretty good considering the fact that my country doesn't have any pony merchandise.
78% Brony.
I got marked down for saying Applejack's a silly pony.
She IS a silly pony. But that's why we love her.
All Bronies, Help fluttershy on DRAWBALL!
I was, I believe, 78% or something like that. Pretty much only because I haven't the money to buy merchandise and I ALWAYS wear headphones AND I didn't lie.
77% Brony. MPT3K looks very interesting though.
84%, I'm ok with this lol.
83%
I could do better.
78%. As far as I can tell, the test doesn't measure how much of a brony you are as much as it measures how much you've let ponies completely take over every facet of your life.
In that respect, I'm happy with my score. XD
85% Brony!?
You gotta be fucking kidding me.
*storms off to redecorate room in Twilight Sparkle style.*
88% brony... Great Scott! once this brony goes over 88% you're going to see some serious sh*t!
Also: THANKYOU SETH FOR ADDING A CHAT BUTTON! I love you forever for this!
Also also: Drawball. If rainbow dash or fluttershy appears, I will fix the damage. *RD salutes*
Awr, we love you and your stories Cereal!
And, I dunno, Seth, I might get an EqD shirt. But, like most of the comments whenever adorable merch pops up, I'd probably not just because of monies. But I would definitel want one. =D
You got 219 of 260 possible points.
Your score: 84%
I MUST WORK HARDER
I pulled a 97%, wow. Having Equestria Daily open 24/7, at least 3 fanfics, favourite links to artists, subscriptions to youtube channels, constant gameplay on the Pony TF2 servers, and lots of time to waste sure help!
That and sugar rushes from cupcakes. That definitely helps me stay up every single night.
I now want a wall length poster with everypony on it. Something like the Comic Con poster, but ridiculously wide and containing every detail of Ponyville.
I type far too much.
78% YEYAH!!! Since I AM a murphologyst...
Nayc anyway!
90% That's already kind of ridiculous, but I just quit my factory job, so time for MOAR PONIES!
>Magical Pony Theater 3000
O_O
...Seth, do a background check on these guys. If they happen to be pre-readers for you, I may have to phone my legal team...
76% T^T please don't hurt me....
The only way I can fix this is if I re-color my '06 Sentra into a giant Rainbow Dash on wheels! Then again, my car's not very fast...a magnet sticker will have to do ;-; It's a good thing I have constant dreams involving ponies(literally)!
58% Brony. Apparently that's "Fully approved," i.e., above average. Huh.
94% im happy with that. going to try and pick up a pre-paid visa card so i can buy some merch and clothing online.
79% Brony, I'm happy for that. I could have scored more, but I try to limit the amount of pony because I know that I will get an 'overload of awesome'. I don't have any MLP t-shirts, yet. And I'm waiting for G4 stuff to arrive in my country before I will have other merch. Also, I have to share my bedroom with my brother at the moment. So the amount of pony is limited. (I'm working on convincing him to at least watch one episode.)
85% Mega Brony! OH YEAH!!!!
I did what I could to fix Trixie, but the enemy tried to destroy her at the same time, I got out of ink, I need help, go go go, we must protect Trixie, oh and I am 88% brony
FORGET FACEBOOK
GET BRONYHAVEN
www.bronyhaven.ning.com
IT'S THE NEW BRONYBOOK!
I'm on it, it's great, but needs support! ;D
83% Baby! Apparently eating "human food" curb stomps your score. :/
88% Brony, sounds pretty dead on. At least it will when my Rainbow Dash stickers arrive for my car :D
AQ went brony?!
Ah man, i've still got my alpha pirate stuff on there, i've not played that in FOR-EV-AR.
also got a beta haircut that's not avaliable anymore, and i'm damn sure i'm the only one with it.
73% brony. Apparently, I got the poison joke effects wrong...
Still, I like any questionnaire that has to do with ponies.
@Anonymous
Aww, I thought my 38% would be lowest, but you beat me by a point. :(
About the spreadsheet, how do I copy paste it to my current one?
Got 80%. Called Applejack a silly pony, bombed on merch and fanart.
What?! Only 68%!?! I must become 20% bronier!
@Amos
Ha! I'm 93% Brony too! Except I'm a filly. Either way, we whooped Seth!
No Comments on Thinking with Ponies?
Merr, I keep running out of ink on drawball :(
And the test's down? Whyyyyyy?
@dash_gal
The test will be back very soon. I'm just updating the questions. You gave us so much good feedback. I couldn't wait, sorry :)
Will be back in a few minutes.
And I know the ink problem. I think there is a script to avoid that. Also you can try to let a tab with drawball open via a proxy. So this one will get more ink while you are using the other one.
I think the quiz is busted. I got 0%. :[
That probably because you took the test while I was updating it. I waited more than 30 minutes for everyone to finish the test until I started editing the question. I'm sorry if this was not enought. I know some people take more than an hour to finish it. But I didn't want to let it stay offline that long.
Well, it's back online now (answers should be better, according to the feedback we got, and 10 new questions are included) and it should work again.
So, looking at the pageview statistics for EQD, how far away are we from the pony singularity?
Wait, there's nothing about Noelponey? But the result has been so positive!
Score. Redid the quiz with the additional questions and went from 88 to 89% :D
289/357.
81% brony.
Do I get a muffin? :3
Yay tomorrow octavia
Saw the quiz updated so I took it again. Score jumped from 38% to 50%. ಠ_à²
No, you get owned, Sethisto! I got 92%!
"Your score: 66 %"
It'd probably be higher were I more multi-talented and/or willing to buy (more) merch.
@Scraticus :(
I guess the quiz is the most popular thing on this post.
77% on the test! Not bad.
Kind of an odd test, though. I mean, am I really any less of a brony if I can't make music for the life of me? :P
I got an 82%, Not bad, at least I apply my brony-ness in real life, thats a good thing right? ^-^
Team Artix are bronies now?!
...
I gave them all my money
ALL OF IT
@WTBrony
In reply to my previous post, the page is back up now. Apparently it was temporarily taken down by the admin last night as a preventive measure.
95% Aced the show questions, yes i have accidentaly memorized the entire show, and most of my friends and family are now bronies too, so that ain't even a thing. Aside from obssesing over the show in my spare time, I stickered up my airsoft F2000 with Fluttershy, so now its a Fluttershy 2000, but now I'm thinking of what else I can do to it without losing tacticool. I actually do write quite a bit of Fanfic: check out "cupcakes 2" on the official cupcakes post. as for fanart, i'd have to say i tried to draw some, but I do enjoy a lot of the fan art here (especially the wallpapers). with school gone, and all my friends being lazy, I find my self surrounded by internet, which leads to being surrounded by pony, which leads me to embarking on drawball crusades, and trying to play guitar to the theme song to make it a bit more metal. And damn it, I love it
90% baby!
I'm more than happy with this.
That score is gonna do nothing but rise as time goes on.
82%
Though it says I'm a mega-brony, and I feel proud of that.
@ActionScripter9109 *shrugs* Overshadows are to be expected.
90% bitches!! Hells to the yeah :D
88%!I'm a great brony!
77% WOOT!
Also, LOL, I just spent the last half hour stalking the Artix Entertainment team on Twitter, it's hilarious how hard they are working to turn Artix into a brony.
I just have to let you know, the ponified game is NOT Adventure Quest; it's by the same company, but it's a different game that came out in 2008 ;P (However AQ is still running).
Anyways, I got 72% /yay
daam you cereal XD!!
81% Brony. Not awesome, but not bad.
80% on mine. I MUST BECOME 20% BRONIER!
89% damn... why cant i make videos? lol
also i'm curious about the Ponemon game... what will take place of the Pokemon? the animals/pets?
damn ink! I keep running out!
V=12D^(2.75)
... my little Exponential Growth model: the magic of extrapolation! ;)))
75%
I'm okay with that.
EqD shirt? Yes please. Also, scored 85% on the brony test.
244/357
68 % Brony.
Alright.
The MST3K thing sounds interesting.
@James Corck They aren't dolls,they're action figures!
is 73% on the test good for being herded 2 weeks ago?
37% brony here. Tried again, got 50% now. Again, show trivia questions bumped up my score on their own.
Also, would be nice if we could skip questions. I had no idea what Bon-Bon's cutie mark was and got it right by pure luck.
So yeah, that eye thing on drawball? Was started by me and continued on by some friends of mine in a Skype call. Enjoy that!
-Triforce Saturn
86%, Mega Brony. I think it's testament to how much of a brony I am that I'm pleased by that.
52%. I knew the answers to the quizzes regarding the mane 6 and background characters. Mostly got "marked down" due to my secret interest in the show...
I noticed, on drawball, that Molestia has stayed untouched since Derpy.
73% brony. Not writing fan fiction, drawing fan art or composing fan music, so I have close to zero points in those segments.
Yeah, I find it odd that one must be a capable musician, artist, and writer to be 100% brony. If you have a knack for all three, you should be gracing the world with your talents, not taking a quiz about ponies.
89% Lemme go back to sleep and dream of ponies and maybe I can bump my percentage up to 90%.
~onery
@Anonymous
Well, we wanted to leave enough space for a brony that does all three. I would be surprised if someone scores 100% while answering everything honestly.
@Anonymous
Good luck and nice pony dreams.
Heard the quiz got updated, took it again. My results improved slightly due to the increased trivia content, so I'm sitting at 56%.
Umm, Seth, Isn't this suppose to be Nightly Round-Up #45 instead?
I mean, there's already #44 http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/07/nightly-roundup-44.html
Or is this a continue of the last one?
71%...it's because I'm in the closet about ponies.
Everypony likes categorization, so why don't we use the quiz to give ourselves ranks? I just need an excuse to introduce myself as an eighth-degree brony (82%). We could use the ranks around this and other sites.
Of course, a higher-rank brony wouldn't have any power over a lower-ranked. That's just un-bronylike. We could rank just for the sake of ranking.
It's just an idea.
