Nightly Roundup #68

I wonder if Scratch will make an appearance in season 2?She really does have a cool character model.  It would be a shame to see it go to waste.

Anyway, on to the news!

Friendship is Magic Episode One Hits 2 Million Views! 

Over on the MenloMarseilles channel, the first episode of FiM has hit the impressive milestone of two million. 

There are also a few relatively famous youtube channels listing it in their favorites, including Mega64.  That probably helps out I would think!


Battlefield Heroes Guild

More guilds for you all to join up and dominate with! (Or get stomped, but at least it's fun right?)

You can find this one here!


"Two Best Friends Play" Drops a Pony Desktop Background

Over on Youtube, a channel that regularly pops up all over gaming websites across the web dropped a pony reference at the end of their recent Amnesia "Lets Play".

You can find it here!

CAKE

I'd kill for some chocolate cake right now.


Dogs With Pony Shirts

Cake. That is all.

Wait, there was a Boston meetup?! And I missed it?!

NOOOOOOOOOOO

Laurence Brown said...

I am one of the few people left in the world who does not own a cellphone; does that QR actually provide whoever uses it with some sort of mystical pony power (or at the least link to something awesome)? Or has my refusal to enter into the modern era of walk and talk technology actually not done me any damage this time, because it's just a cool little piece of art masquerading as something nifty?

Oddly enough...I secretly wish for a pony cake on my upcoming 23rd birthday...

Love the pony swag shirts, but, Lyra and no Bonbon? It's a travesty I say!

colt classic said...

pat...why is there ponies on your desktop?

Jhow8 said...

Someone have a Florida meetup already! Near Naples! I know quite a few Bronies down here who feel left out.

Zak TH said...

Buck Yeah, best QR code ever.

Detoxicity said...

Episode one has reached two million? Why is it only showing my views =/

NO MORE SPIDERS

The code works, and It's just EQD's URL

"My little pony:Frienship is magic"
Frienship =/= Friendship

Good to know. Thank you very much for filling me in. =)

The rainbow dash cake...Maybe it's got the same ingredients than the rainbow CUPCAKE!The cake is a lie! *flee*

@Detoxicity

You had access to the first episode of friendship is magic 56 years before anyone else even had access to the first generation stuff, and you didn't tell anypony?!
How could you ;P

KShrike said...

That QR code is full of freaking win!
And it's about 20% cooler than every other QR code.

Anonymous said...

Sometimes I forget that the fanbase kinda-sorta made up Vinyl Scratch's, like, y'know, ENTIRE CHARACTERIZATION?

And then I go and read one of the Vinyl Scratch fanfics, and forget all about that because she is SO. AWESOME.

Rock on, bronies!

Applebloom said...

Oh QR code, why don' ya work while on uh phone?

Anonymous said...

The QR code… SO AWESOME!

Octavia said...

Scratch might just make another appearance in the near future. Especially since she seems to have a nice little fanbase going. I agree, I like her character design as well.

Congrats to them and everyone on the the first FiM episode on YouTube to reach two million views. Maybe at some point one will reach ten million and we'll look back on this and giggle to ourselves. Like EqD here and one million long ago. :P

Hah, the Two Best Friends Play ending was hilarious with the desktop. Busted!

Yay, RD cake. Wonder how many FiM cakes have been made so far. Waiting for that time when a FiM wedding cake pops up or something. lol Hey, a ponified wedding.

Aww, the dogs in pony shirts are adorable. And I love corgis! They remind me of Ein. <3

People are doing Spiderses readings? Oh jeez. Lmao. Reading it was bad enough. Listening to it... I dunno.

I liked the Swagberg song. Not as much as Pony Swag of course *lol* but it's good. I notice the tags "Illuminati", "zionist", "conspiracy" and the name of the song is "ZOG". Unfortunately I'm a bit lost on the finer points of that subject myself. Guess that's Hebrew or such in the song? Either way, song is good.

And yay, QR Code for EqD. Those are nifty.

HORY SHET! that cake has my name...

Ezzekiel said...

Scratch MUST have an appearance in season 2! Her 5 second air time was a show stopper!

I missed the Boston Meetup?!! nooooo!! I live right there!!!

That Spiderses reading was freaking funny!

Firleycat said...

There are dogs that are getting pony t-shirts and cheeseburgers. I wish I was that lucky, those t-shirts look nice.

Anonymous said...

2 Best Friends Play? The very last place I would expect ponies to show up. And on Amnesia the Dark Descent no less.

Season 3 certainly started well. :D

Dashie said...

>Print QR
>Stick everywhere
>Worldwide domination in 10-15 years
>Awesome.

"The Cake is a l-*beaten to death by rest of internet*"

Mr. B said...

That QR code works?! Awesome!! XD

dw1482 said...

I feel a need to say how much that QR code is cooler by, preferably represented in a percentage form.

Anonymous said...

QR codes with pony portraits would be awesome - would that work ?

Anonymous said...

@Valyou
Oh gawd the Ohio meeting is tempting. But I'd be at school, plus I wanna stay a closet brony :U
And the hotsauce cuuupcaaakes.

eaglehooves said...

The QR code would be a bit more useful if I didn't already have EqD bookmarked on every device I own. Still about 19% cooler, give or take a percent.

Retl said...

I wanted to check out that MUSH since it'll mean direct competition to Equestrian Dawn, but the whole YOU MUST HAVE A FORUM ACCOUNT kinda has me :| from the start. But I guess that's not much worse than YOU MUST SE- well sending an Email isn't quite the same since one likely already has an Email.


...*Signs up anyway just to check.*

eaglehooves said...

@Anonymous Where are you going to school at? I'm going to school in Cleveland, moving in just before the meetup, so I'll be able to make this one.

Anonymous said...

If there is no Scratch in season 2, I will be a really sad brony.

TheguywithZeldasprites said...

Why do you make us go homicidal over chocolate confections? WHY- hey look, dogs in t-shirts. AAAWWW...

Anonymous said...

Dang.. I live in Ellettsville in Indiana, but I can't make the freaking Ohio meetup. >:|

markocezar said...

AHAHAHA! "Why is there ponies on your desktop?"
I died... i hope he got assimilated into the herd!

RainbowDat said...

The cake is...the truth?

BTW, one dramatic reading of Spiderses is quite enough, thank you. Any more would just make my ears bleed.

ElectricZoNe said...

That QR Code is so badass. Also I love it when there is a random video on YouTube that mentions MLP and EQD brings it up. That videos top two comments are Pony related lol.

Vanderlyle said...

Now imagine how many views each episode would have if they didn't keep getting removed.

Profesor Rod said...

That QR code is 20% cooler.

About "Alta Definición" it airs Saturdays at 20:00 CST. Pimping out like crazy 83

fizzlefist said...

@Jhow8

They're trying to organize on in the Tampa area...

Sorata Dadouji said...

Haha love the QR Code XD I will print and paste it on my car RAIT NAO!! ¬¬

I already sent that email since like.... yesterday or so when they aired the TV Show, if ppl send a lo of them, they can call or check out with Latin American HASBRO to check out on any opinions :P

I want a cake too, I'll turn 25 in 2 weeks D=

Desigos said...

Wha...how does that QR code work! That's so awesome!

Anonymous said...

I think it works because QR codes have a selectable amount of error correction built into them. More error correction means a larger QR block. But, it also means more bits can be corrupted (in this case intentionally, which is what the image is).

Someonelse said...

Two million views is pretty awesome. Too bad the episodes are so randomly scattered about that it would be impractical to tally up all the views.

In other news, is ponychan down-ish for anyone else? Just curious.

Davey Jones said...

Two Best Friends Play is one of my favorite Internet series, and Season 3 is looking to be even better, if the premiere is any indication. I loved the end. Out of all people, I wouldn't have expected Pat to be a brony.

Anonymous said...

Two Best Friends Play banned me on their FB page in June because I was talking about ponies.. Now they use it in a video.. Im pissed.

So 69 tomorrow/tonight can't wait for the jokes

poopnate said...

@Someonelse

As far as I can tell, it is. Any ideas of when it'll be back up?

Anonymous said...

Down for me as well.

PONYCHAN, Y U NO WORK TODAY

Demetrius said...

I just submitted two lengthy and (hopefully) helpful review/suggestion posts to /fic/ last night. Rageface if it doesn't come back up.

Harakou said...

@Someonelse
It's down for me too. D:

I did not find episode one in Mega64's favorites. I did find one involving Pinkie Pie and something from Mega64. I wonder why they favorited it...

Anonymous said...

Can we stop with the Spiders fic, it wasn't even a good trollfic :/ That cake is awesome, and so is scratch

poopnate said...

Does anypony know when Ponychan will be back up?

Gadvac said...

@Dashie
Better yet: Print it on a sticker sheet. No tape needed.

Anyhow, I have no idea how people are able to imprint designs into their QR codes and still have them work. Then again, I don't know how QR codes work at all...

Dash cake is best cake.

Harakou said...

@poopnate
It's back up now, with the exception of /pony/. (Figures the board I post in is the one that's still broken.)

Wait, does that QR code actually work?

I must be special. My name is Alex.

Temp1261 said...

@Laurence Brown Ha ha, I don't have a phone either! :D

ShivalWolf said...

For the geekness love the QR code.

Large QR codes have alot of extra data you can play with as 'redundancy' in case it doesn't get a clear pixle check.
You can screw with this redundancy to put your own images into the middle.

Very cool putting this one together.

>There are also a few relatively famous youtube channels listing it in their favorites, including Mega64.
psst, Seth. I never specified in the e-mail that they had that specific episode favorited, just general pony videos

MarkTheCat said...

It's too bad I can never actually go to any of these meet-ups.

Awwww, poor Vinyl. She's so lonely in that pic.

What's in the QR code? Some of us don't have those cell phones.

nope, just the link to equestriadaily

sotha said...

That Swagberg song is pretty swag, if I do say so myself. The song it is mixed from is also rather good. I just wish I knew what the lyrics were actually saying.
