• Nightly Roundup #72

    Octavia?!  Hell yah!

    I had two #68 nightly roundups, so I skipped 71 to make up for it.

    I'm hoping the music ponies get some spotlight in season two.  

    Rooster Teeth Stuff

    Apparently the new member of the Rooster Teeth staff is spreading pony all over the place. Not only was their recent podcast invaded by it, but apparently it has become a sort of inside joke between the various members of the team.

    Starting with the podcast here

    Followed by the blog post about one of their members eventually heading the pony way here.


    Pony Marriage Proposal

    What better way to propose, than with ponies?! The crazy PMV found below was actually used with great success! How many of you have a significant other who shares your pony love?

    720p Equestria Girls

    The Equestria Girls PMV that the hub released a while back never did hit anything above 420p. Noobish1Noobsicle on Youtube recently re-created it scene by scene using clips from the show in glorious 720p.

    You can find it here!

    Ponies on the Official Playstation Blog

    This is extremely subtle, but on the official Playstation blog, Rainbow Dash popped up in a an explanation of Resistance 3.
    "Just because they aren’t modified with some fancy alien technology doesn’t mean they won’t plow through the Chimera faster than Rainbow Dash can clear the skies of Ponyville."

    Twitter Pony RP

    A group over on Twitter that roleplays a bunch of pony stuff recently set up a website. You can find it here!


    Pony Panel At Connecticon

    Canterlot Commercial Updated

    Earlier today I posted the new Canterlot play set commercial. Sadly it was hand-camera quality. Someone went ahead and directly ripped it. You can find it updated at it's post here!

    2. That picture of Octavia is awesome.

    3. ....I just realized that terribly-worded post now looks suspiciously like a FIRST!!!! post. Woe is me.

      ReplyDelete
    4. I fail to see how the Playstation blog reference is subtle. It directly references the show in a very obvious way.

      ReplyDelete
    5. that might be the most terrifying picture of derpy i've ever seen.

      ReplyDelete
    6. that twitter website has been up for some time now =P just letting you know..

      ReplyDelete
    7. What's wrong with "that" Derpy? I don't see anything wrong with that art.

      ReplyDelete
    8. Our fame continues to grow. The world domination plot is proceeding as planned...

      ReplyDelete
    9. "Real" Fluttershy hair? So the Equestrian Innovations portal DOES work! How did they convince Fluttershy to cut her hair? Hmm....

      ReplyDelete
    10. He skipped #71. Either that, or ponies have transported us a day into the future.

      ReplyDelete
    11. Awesome, you chose my Octavia drawing! :)

    12. Every time a game blog mentions ponies, One of my friends watches a little bit more. The Naughty Dog article got him to watch a whole song, I think this will get him to watch a whole episode. I will break him with the power of friendship, slowly but surly.

    13. You all love me and you know it. ;)

      Awww, someone proposed with a pony PMV. That's cute. I've thought about that idea too. Proposing through ponies somehow. Glad she said yes. <3

      Congrats to FlankBook on reaching 3000 members. I feel bad, I haven't been on my FB account in a good little while now.

      Congrats to Bronyville too on making #46 on iTunes. I'm sure we could probably bump them even higher. :)

      Hah, Alfalfa Monster shirts, nice. The video was oddly entertaining too.

      And Derpy? Taking over everything from here? Well... guess nothing will really change then. Har har! *dodges debris*

    14. Marriage proposal news always make me cry, especially if they come with a video. To give you some perspective, I cried at the video of the guy proposing to his girlfriend with a mod of Super Mario World. So yeah, I can't see anything but tears now ;_;

      ReplyDelete
    15. Awesome way to propose!
      The Playstation pony ref is very "subtle" indeed.

      ReplyDelete
    16. That was not "subtle", Seth. "Subtle" means that the reference was implied, not explicit. That was about as obvious a reference as you can get. Get a dictionary.

      ReplyDelete
    17. Actually, website != wiki. Anyways, we're considering (well, I am, anyway) setting up shop with a domain and server of our own. We've got a member who's got server space, so we just need a domain.

      ReplyDelete
    18. That marriage proposal video was just freaking sweeet.
      Uh,...Yay for world domination plan...

      ReplyDelete
    19. League of Legends becoming MLG was a bad idea. It's not that the game isn't extremely competitive and balanced (which it is).
      It's that gameplay relies heavily on RNG values going your way. 2000 dollars rely heavily on the computer generating a number that may or may not trigger a critical hit or a dodge.
      Dodge the ult? Dude, you just survived something that you shouldn't.

      MLG is supposed to be about skill, not luck. Though LoL is heavy skill, there is enough luck factor in the game to trump skill just with one dodge at the right time.

      ReplyDelete
    20. XD Seth, I swear, I have never seen someone troll with numbers so well.

      :I please stop.

      Anyway :D it's good to see the pony influence spread. Roosterteeth and Playstation. Soon my bros shall be converted to bronies.

      ReplyDelete
    21. Very sweet proposal video. There had better be a pony wedding cake in this!

      ReplyDelete
    22. Congrats people, you bombed Flankbook :P

      btw, that Fluttershy on ebay looks amazing. I wonder how much that'll sell for. My guess: a LOT.

      ReplyDelete
    23. Already love Rooster Teeth but now the guys are into ponies...omg we're bros yes!

      ReplyDelete
    24. Octavia trumps all! (Except for Luna ^_^)

      ......Has anyone shipped those two yet?

      ReplyDelete
    25. Seth, you're doing the right thing. That's one of the few things that are worth more attention than a blog full of ponies.

      ReplyDelete
    26. I noticed that about rooster teeth recently. Monty (new guy who does motion capture stuff) is a Brony, and he's spreading it all over rooster teeth. Going through the comments and forums, you'll see pony avatars everywhere. I've been a big fan of rooster teeth for a while, but this may just be the awesomest thing they've done. (I would say they're now 20% cooler, but honestly, that's gotten old...)

      ReplyDelete
    27. So glad that Michael at Rooster Teeth is spreading the ponies.

      ReplyDelete
    28. Quick!, Somepony needs to make a Resistance/FIM crossover ASAP

    31. >mfw there's a meetup actually fairly close to where I live.

    32. Last night they played "California Gurls" at Pizza Hut. I had never actually heard the original song, only the ponified version. HUB 1, Katy Perry 0.

      ReplyDelete
    33. Very good job with the 720p recreation of Equestria Girls, except there's one problem I've noticed.

      In the Hub's version of Equestria Girls, where they say "where the grass is what's for dinner", they actually went back there and added grass to the daffodil sandwich, check it out if you don't believe me.

      It's nothing important, just a little detail that can't be helped.

      ReplyDelete
    34. Anyone read those RT comments? They're pretty goddamn hilarious.

      ReplyDelete
    35. well, that's why flankbook is down :/
      you MUST have a flankbook account to enter by the way.

      RT ftw! but it will be more awesome if RVB did a ref to FiM then BFTW!(BEYOND FOR THE WIN)

      ReplyDelete
    36. fuck yea, that pony post is on the front page of RoosterTeeth. I'm also fairly impressed with the comments, hardly any prepubescent CoDfags raging about it

      ReplyDelete
    37. 720p EQUESTRIA GIRLS! Lacking in grass but so SHINYYYY~

      ReplyDelete
    38. I remember on Roosterteeth going to watch the latest RVB, and right below it, noticing "Hey, that 'Newest staff member' is wearing a twenty percent cooler shirt". I was so happy. :D

      ReplyDelete
    39. Any chance we can get a shout-out to bronies in the york/lancaster/chester/philadelphia area? We're trying to plan a meet-up over on RD network.

      ReplyDelete
    40. Wish there was a meet-up in the UK.

      ReplyDelete
    41. Rooster Teeth will soon be overcome by Ponies, the plan is going perfectly

      ReplyDelete
    42. Awww yeah, Jay Naylor droppin a pony ref. It's inevitable, ponies are taking over the internet.
