Dammit I missed the Minnesota brony meetup!!!!

Lunasta said...

Nice Seth, early Nightly Roundup. Good job.

Ponified/Ponies in RvB? The chat already has a list of which ponies fit the characters the most.

Muppetz said...

From the pictures these brony meetups look very awkward

Octavia said...

Wow, earlier than usual I see. Cool.

Yay, more comics. Love the shark one, haha. Sharkdash ate that marshmallow shark. The third one is hilarious too. "It's a parody-and-fair-use pleasure!" lol

Wewt, Bronies at Mall of America! I wonder if they're in a circle to do a sing-a-long. Then again, I'm sure mall security would make it a rather short song in that case. lol

More articles too, dang. It certainly established itself as a well-known fandom fast. Seems like everyone is doing a story on Bronies now.

Raven said...

I belive, thanks to Red vs Blue's nod to Bronies. I may soon lead another into the Herd.

I love this "Nightly Roundups at night" thing, Pretty awesome!

Acriaos said...

Added the webcomics to the collection:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/18tFbR1_Sp0-8CeJ4wDoaZR3wCrHjnB0ITf7uaZ8WYUA/edit?hl=en_US

There are now 46 webcomics in there!

derpidety said...

dat article explaining the brony phenomenon...touched my heart...

Wierdplatformer said...

I give much respect to Sonicsuns article!

Fire Flash said...

Happy Friendship Day, bronies!

Octavia said...

That second article on DA is actually kinda funny. lol I got a good laugh out of it. I honestly wasn't sure if they were trying to troll or just being funny at first. I think it's the former. But either way, it's still a funny article that someone spent good time to think up. Some of it even makes a bit of sense actually. Not in the bright and happy way the show typically portrays itself, but in a darker Equestria.

Huzzah for two months worth of Nightly Roundups! Here's to many, many more!

Luna Lover said...

hmmmmmm. should have a brony meetup in seattle

Anonymous said...

Rooster Teeth Pony comic? So much aweshum.

Killsteal_Wolf said...

We are only a few hours away until the 25 Million views. Not much more now...

Fire Brony said...

I really hope Luke (the RT comic artist) is a brony. That would be so awesome. /)^3^(\

daMatt said...

Hasbro Germany statet in a E-Mail to me (about 1 1/2 monts ago), that FiM is sheduled for airing "early fall" here in Germany. But neither told an exact date nor on which network.

Anonymous said...

A live reading of Antipodes? I don't suppose you could share a link to that, could you?

Dionysus said...

I would prefer MLP never airing in germany, except with subtitles ...
seriously we should just sub everything instead of doing a horrible dub, would be good to teach children reading and english.

Facelessguru said...

Damn you wolfrahm! (man in the pony hat) i wanted to go too :(
i had to open the stand the day of the mall meet up and couldn't play hooky

Greeniepie said...

25,000,000 is happening soon...

@Octavia

Actually, we gathered in a circle and gave out our names and who our favorite Ponies are, and a little some about ourselves. I should know becase I'm the guy in the Ghostbusters shirt there in the main photo.

But some of the Bronies did sing Winter wrap p while we were walking around

blakestar15 said...

Heloooo epically awesome fire pony!

Rita Lot said...

She has a name Everypony! her name is Incendia!

"But some of the Bronies did sing Winter wrap up while we were walking around."
I did that, like a boss of course.

Also, of course you'd use the picture of the one moment of the meetup that was really awkward. :P
Really though the meetup was awesome and not awkward at all, just that one circle moment where nopony could hear each other due to the noise in the mall.

Anonymous said...

Sethisto hr name is Incendia. jeez

Lupinator said...

That Minnesta meetup had about three times the ammount of people show up than what's visible in that picture. It was pretty awesome.

JR said...

I missed the MOA meet up due to scheduling conflicts, glad to hear it went well.


On another note, that article "Explaining the Brony phenomenon" was very good. It mirrored a lot of my thoughts about the matter.

Cereal Velocity said...

@Anonymous

Yeah, it wasn't really a live reading. It turned into silliness when PK showed up because we took turns reading paragraphs in silly accents and giving him a hard time about word choice.

It was fun though.

Seleen said...

I Don't think it's a good idea to import the series to us here in germany...i really really hate german translations, they usually tend to be very bad. And i think at least 60% percent of the jokes and allmost all the names don't make sense in german T_T

Zak TH said...

That Psyguy comic is old man, I remember seeing that months ago!

Anonymous said...

Ha I am in the Minnesota meetup pic.

Firleycat said...

Even more proof that Rooster Teeth has bronies. Seriously guys, Just do a video about it. Stop hiding and come out. Its warm out in the open than it is in the dark.

I remember that there was a Antipodes reading in one of the first Nightly Roundups. Is it the same one that Seth is talking about cause I meant to listen to it. I haven't read Antipodes since its fourth update so I'm kind of out of date.

PK said...

>mfw nightly roundup picture is Incendia

>mfw people also know her name

:D

Seriously though that live read was so much fun. It took as an hour and a half to get through chapter one, we got distracted so easily.

when was the MN meetup D:
im like 20min away from Mall of America and would have loved to go T-T

Anonymous said...

That's Incendia dammit.

OMG I WAS IN THAT MN BRONY MEETUP PIC. I WAS ON EQUESTRIA DAILY, THIS IS THE HAPPIEST DAY OF MY LIFE!

KShrike said...

Rooster teeth becomes brony. That is a very large victory, everypony. Expect to see brony related jokes in Red vs Blue very very soon.

And Sketchy was hilarious.

Anonymous said...

Wait how old is that Rooster Teeth comic and you put it up now?

Also Gus and MLP I can see that happening

Anonymous said...

that second "article" was kind of dumb. I'm pretty sure it was a joke but I'm not certain.

KShrike said...

Just want to point this out:
Boorus aren't bad, it's just that they are NSFW.
Otherwise, they are the best tool that I have ever seen that I could use to find the exact image I like.

Man. I was only a bit over 1.5 hours from the Mall of Amareica, but I had to work. Also, I have a sucky car. I do NOT love or tolerate my car... but it is a POS.

Anonymous said...

Really short roundup but that RT comic....yep, its official. RT loves mlp.

RedEnchilada said...

Someone told me all about the meetup yesterday, if a writeup matters.

Necromas said...

@Muppetz

It was only awkward when we did the silly introductions thing, once we actually started doing stuff and checking out the mall it went away pretty fast.

Kiacat said...

I seriously hate myself right now.
I was at the mall of america, LESS THEN A WEEK AGO.
UGH.

Doc Steedly said...

WHOO! Incendia is really cool. She can envelope herself in flames. O.O thats kinda awesome.


Alotta cool updates for sure. I approve the new pony pic site, ITS NOT SLOW!!

YAY!

I've heard the Rooster Teeth comic is actually a photoshop.

Although I can't find proof either way.

Quinnjaminn said...

I've also heard that the Rooster Teeth comic was a photoshop. For what it's worth, I've seen that floating around the internet for a while now, and I can't find it in the Rooster Teeth archives.

eaglehooves said...

I have been reading the RT comics regularly since before FiM existed, and this one hasn't come across the front page, and isn't in the archive, so I think it's a fake. I want it to be real, but I don't think so. I've heard the RT guys dropped some subtle pony references into one of their minecraft videos a while back, though.

lol Mall of America? Dang!

...What's the idea behind that fire pony? I had an idea for a fire pony, I've even been trying to draw it, but I suck at drawing. I've been trying to improve, but as I stated, I suck so it's taking a while. I did manage to create one decent sketch of him at one point, but I can't recreate it, and the sketch is in a small notebook I've been practicing in. I even envisioned his coat being black, at least part of the time. 'sigh' I knew this was likely to happen at some point, at least mine isn't a unicorn.
Anyway, it's an excellent picture, and I guess I'll need to read antipodes to see what this one's backstory is. I pray that it isn't similar to the one I thought up.

Okay, read through all the chapters you've made, and I have to say you're doing a fantastic job. I also found Incendia's backstory in chapter 19, at least I think that was the chapter, and thankfully (for me) mine is extremely different. I now believe I can continue mine without people believing I copied your character. I hope to post my character at some point.
Also, I'll keep reading antipodes as long as you continue updating it.

PK said...

@Anonymous

I'm glad to hear that you liked it and that I didn't accidentally ruin your character. :)

Antipodes ftwwww!

What was used to make that picture? Finally made a sketch I'm pleased with, so I'm wondering about what I need to use so that the coloring doesn't look horrible.

awesome post, it is unique and informative. I have just bookmarked this site in my favorites so will be visiting your page often. Regards dissertations

This post has nothing to do with anything relating to what has been posted above, and I could care less if this post was removed.



Well, I'm going to post this here since it probably won't be read, because I'm currently panicking and I need to vent, and hopefully this won't be read.
Okay, earlier I closed my eyes and immediately a certain pink pony was popping up everywhere, moving about through the darkness that was currently my vision. I thought "Okay, no big deal," but now I just finished reading a few pages in my Bible a little while ago. I set the book down, get up, take a few steps, and suddenly I feel something pressed against my hand. I raise my hand and there's a random picture stuck to my hand. It's an old picture of me, which happened to appear out of nowhere. I now have the greatest sense that something is watching me. I've also caught brief glimpses of pink.
Maybe I'm just sleep deprived, had to get up earlier than usual today, but this has helped me relax. Feel like I'm in my own little horror movie (that can be taken as a pun can't it, man this is getting to me); my mind is my own worst enemy in most of these cases anyways.
Well this was just for venting, so I don't really want a response to it, just wanted to type this down somewhere to help get it out of head. Most I can say now is that I'm glad I've never read Cupcakes.
