    3. THAT PONY FRIENDSHIP CHART IS AWESOME!!!

    4. Why are there never any Brony meet-ups in New Zealand? =(

      ReplyDelete
    5. So in that friendship chart I was for like a whole minute trying to figure out why there were 16 connections and not 15 (5th triangle number). The artist decided to throw in a "whole group interaction" description in the middle to troll me.

      ReplyDelete
    6. Well, we already knew Luna Eclipsed was rerunning on the 29th.

    8. The "Martha Speaks" Video is even funnier when you realise it's Tabitha St. Germain, voice of Rarity, Luna, Nightmare Moon, Photo Finish and Granny Smith, who's the one voicing Martha.

    9. I finally see a Melbourne meet up and the link is broken >:(

      ReplyDelete
    10. The episode gaps are probably there to give the FIM production team more time to make better quality stuff. We've all heard about how the deadlines for season 2 were much tighter than for season 1, so maybe Hasbro/The Hub is loosening up a little.

      In which case I approve of quality over quantity, and could live with one good episode every other week instead of a mediocre one every week.

    12. Hehe, Pinkie has tension with everypony but Fluttershy according to the friendship chart. That means Pinkie is best for developing other's characters, right?

      ReplyDelete
    13. Dunno bout that new abridged series, its definitely no Friendship is witchcraft or camaraderie is supernatural. Its seems more YTP than abridged to me.

      ReplyDelete
    14. I can't stand Game Informer. First their open and extreme hatred of the Wii, and now blatantly hating on MLP? Only one thing to do: Love and tolerate the heck out of them.

      ReplyDelete
    15. Why with all the episode gaps? *sighs*

      That friendship chart was actually really well done.

      Wow...that Fluttershy plush, so expensive. I'm jealous of both the skill the seller has at making it AND of the fact that it's not here in my hands. :(
      *Note to self: Learn to make plushie ponies ASAP*

      ReplyDelete
    16. Wow, I almost thought that Flutterplush was receiving troll-bidding but the top 4 bids that push it over $600 are 4 different people! I've bought cars for less lol.

      ReplyDelete
    17. as in, leave them alone and let them believe what they want because it's not publicly encouraging maliciousness?

      coz that's what i'll do.

      ReplyDelete
    18. I approve of that My Little Investigations update

      ReplyDelete
    19. That My Little Investigations video was genius! I am now hyped for three pony fa games: Fighting is Magic, My Little Investigations, and the Dating Sim <3

      Also, Martha Speaks is effing brilliant. I love that show.

      ReplyDelete
    20. Wow, every time a new 'My Little Investigations' video gets released, I get that much more excited about it. I can't wait to see this game get finished.

      Also, INTIMIDATION!!!

      ReplyDelete
    21. Game Informer is a terrible magazine anyway, so they're not even worth listening to.

      ReplyDelete
    22. Oh, and also:

      Oh no! They are re-running the Luna episode again! What are we going to do but...Watch Luna being awesome another day XD Keep the episodes coming, I don't care how later or how delayed, as long as we still have pony to watch.

      ReplyDelete
    23. That friendship chart is really thorough - I could see it being handy for wanna-be fanfic writers trying to understand their characters better!

      ReplyDelete
    24. Hmm...

      I see that Pinkie Pie has the most Black Lines >:3

      Just an observation.

      ReplyDelete
    25. Think of it this way, every week they skip a new ep this season makes the whole season a week longer next spring/summer.

      ReplyDelete
    26. Ah, mango juice... I mean the morning news.

      Nice chart and it's mostly accurate. There are minor grammatical errors as well that are mostly unnoticable.

      Hah, Photo Finish I didn't know you could do that.

      My Little Investigations is on the up and up now Cereal Velocity with the pony weather.

      ReplyDelete
    27. I wish our school was as awesome. But they would never post ponies in our school newspaper. If we even had one.

      ReplyDelete
    28. If we get more delays now and less as the season goes on, that would be cool.

      Or....it could be that The Hub is planning a third season! To lesson the huge gap between seasons, they are spacing out the episodes a bit more during this one! :)

      I personally don't mind either way! There are still 24 glorious episodes of pony left to watch. :D

      ReplyDelete
    29. Sorry to burst your bubble, Seth, but that last pony article in a game magazine was from the Playstation Magazine.

      ReplyDelete
    30. Awesome plushies, y u always so expensive!? >:(

      ReplyDelete
    31. @The Commander

      They aren't so much hating on the show as trying to distance themselves just enough from it to seem "cool" to readers that don't get it. I'm sure they have some bronies on staff, or pony never would have been mentioned in the first place.

      ReplyDelete
    32. Now, on to another half of the Roundup!

      Dat Friendship Chart.
      Guitar tabs?! *cracks knuckles* Let's do this.
      My Little Investigators is going to be great.
      Dear God. I would KILL for that plushie...

    33. Reading that Gameinformer article, I'm just going to assume they're another nerdbaiter looking for rage comments for traffic. Sort of like Kotaku and the other Gawker sites.

      No point raging about it people, it's what they want.

      ReplyDelete
    34. @ Aceed
      Agreed.
      I've said before that lesser-known medias are using MLP to gain attention. Gameinformer has been falling through the tubes recently...

    35. "And best of all, the more merchandise you buy, the more she loves you!"
      Haha, that got me good!

      ReplyDelete
    36. That friendship strength chart is pretty interesting, I think I'd agree with almost everything that is laid out for all of them except maybe Rainbow Dash / Applejack. To me, that one just seems more like a friendly / tense (light blue/black lines) relationship than a strong one (red line).

      ReplyDelete
    37. Noo! why is Fluttershy so expensive? Aw, someday.. someday..

      ReplyDelete
    38. @Heartmend

      They aren't just planning season 3, it's been confirmed by Sibsy (one of the animators for FiM, when she was joking with a fellow animator that's not coming back for season 3 that "there will always be a season 17!") on Deviant Art already.

      ReplyDelete
    39. *looks at friendship chart*
      *notices a lack of red line between Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash*

      FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

      Even though they don't interact to much on the show beyond Rainbow Dash teasing Fluttershy, they have been shown hanging out together and Rainbow Dash does seem to truly value Fluttershy's opinion of her and Fluttershy's development as a pony (and is always quick and willing to defend her from any real hurt), and Fluttershy places value on Dash's hopes and dreams arguably even more so than Rarity's. Plus, they've easily known each other for much longer than any other two ponies in the mane cast.

      Yeah, the lines drawn between Fluttershy and Dash should be green, black, and RED, not green, black, and blue.

      ReplyDelete
    40. Aww, one of the saddest editions yet. lol Who could throw little Luna away? :(

      As for Luna taking up two weeks in a row. Well, you have to make sure no one misses cute widdle Woona, obviously. :)

      More My Little Investigations updates. :D Ooh, adding a partner. Interesting. That and hidden evidence could make the game more challenging and longer overall. I'm really stoked for this game. And to quote Applebloom: "I want it noooow!" But I can wait if it means even more fun stuff added in.

      The Martha Speaks clip... oh no, not that! Haha. Well, maybe just a teeny weeny joke throw in on children's programming and toy marketing. :P

      When you said that friendship chart was huge... you were not kidding. lol I didn't read all of it, but it certainly looks impressive.

      That school's newspaper article wasn't bad. Though they left out a few things and got one or two little details here and there wrong I noticed. All-in-all it was okay. I do like the Molestia pic put in there. lol

      I dunno, the guy who questioned Game Informer sounds a bit... upset. And maybe taking it just -slightly- too far. Just a little maybe. lol Makes it easier for them to troll you if you get riled up.

      Oh wow. Another plushie that's going to skyrocket into the stratosphere on Ebay. The Gala Fluttershy plush is at $630 right now. Wow. Hey, you rich Bronies. Help a starving artist out, would ya? ;D Haha.

      That Brony car sticker is also pretty nifty.

      ReplyDelete
    41. Oh Games Informer, When will you learn to just leave fandoms alone and stop baiting them. I thought you would have learned that after the Paper Mario incident.

      The friendship chart was pretty interesting. I'm really hoping that season 2 give a few more of the relationships some focus. I'd be interested to see a situation that puts Rarity and Pinkie Pie or Fluttershy and Applejack together.

      Wow, you work fast. You beat me to reposting that comment on DA. XD

      Yeah, loved the chart. Just FYI, that "FFFUUUUUU" was for comedic effect XD

    47. Fluttershy plushie...
      Shut up and take my money.
      I lol'd at ponies on newspaper.
      And the frienship chart is REALLY usefull to fanfic writers, love it :D.

      ReplyDelete
    48. Love that flowchart. Points out things I never really noticed, like how there was little significant interaction between Pinkie and Rarity.

      Also, Molestia... a brony aspect best left out of the general public image, in my opinion. Still awesome though; a pic like that is sure to get some "WTF, whats that about? Now I'm kind of curious..." moments.

      ReplyDelete
    49. Uh, guys? I know that using a calender is hard, but episode 3 airs on the 15th, and episode 4 airs on the 22nd, so if it airs again on the 29th and episode 5 is on November 5th (which is what's happening) that's only a one-week gap.

      ReplyDelete
    50. @A Pony Farce

      I was actually thinking that as well. o.O

      ReplyDelete
    51. Forget my last comment, derp. There's a two week break between episodes 4 and 5.

      ReplyDelete
    52. That Brony Decal Sticker will go nicely in my car so that's another item i'm getting when I get paid this Friday. :D And the My Little Investigations Demo looks really good as well, can't wait when it's done. :D

      ReplyDelete
    53. Listen to the background of the Martha Speaks clip -- Mr. Dan Ingram is being sneaky and playing off the MLP theme. XD

      (My kids loved Martha before ponies came out, so finding out that Tabitha did both? Well... let's just say she impresses the heck out of me.

      ReplyDelete
    54. @Octavia

      I agree, the guy did sound a little bit too worked up. It was probably because he sounded so passionate about the show that they probably saw him as an easy target.

      ReplyDelete
    55. A very cool chart (although way too big to load on any of my mobile devices.)

      Personally, I'd give Twilight and Applejack a red line for a strong friendship. They rely on each other pretty consistently, from Applejack saving Twilight's life repeatedly (from falling off the cliff and from being crushed by the avalanche) to Twilight forcing Applejack to admit she needed help with the harvest, and being the first pony she goes to when reclaiming their friendships from Discord. They both can be stubborn and obsessed with their work and are generally of a serious mindset.

      I'd also give Rarity and Rainbow Dash an orange line... There just hasn't been much interaction between the two outside of "Sonic Rainboom", and even there wasn't much directly between them. I can't think of much that they do to directly antagonize each other enough to give them a black line only.

      ReplyDelete
    56. Ah! Not another hiatus! Oh Well I'll just go through another run of the 30 episodes that will be available!


      And that Fluttershy plush is so cute!

    59. To be fair, Game Informer hates pretty much EVERYTHING that isn't a Mature rated first person shooter (namely Call of Duty), you should have seen the countless times they have bashed on the Pokemon franchise (one of the reasons a lot of Pokemon fans hate Game Informer), they just cannot accept the magic of friendship like we have.

      Also, I would love to cuddle with that Fluttershy plushie.

      ReplyDelete
    60. I kinda find the Luna episode rerun almost plausible because it's before Halloween.

      Then again, the Hub could leave the premiere until that day.

      ReplyDelete
    61. That "My Little Investigations" game looks very promising.
      Also, the new banner is very unsettling.

      ReplyDelete
    62. Fuck Game Informer. The only reason anyone even owns that piece of trash magazine is because they get it for free with a gamestop card. If anyone from Gameinformer happens to be reading this comment:

      Go fuck yourself.

      ReplyDelete
    63. I will hereby boycott Game Informer.

      Wait... When have I ever bought Game Informer?

      ReplyDelete
    64. Game Informer is just trolling for comments. It's an easy way to generate traffic for there webpage.

      ReplyDelete
    65. Really school newspaper brony? We have something like 70000 pony images and the choice is Molestia? I don't know whether to facepalm or shake you by the hand.

      ReplyDelete
    66. I for one am disappointed by the extreme LACK of vitriol in that Game Informer response.

      I was hoping for something that would make me reconsider my own existence and contemplate suicide, but no, once again it isn't strong enough to do that. All "hater" content is too weak these days to elicit a powerful emotional response from me.

      Now, I just laugh at them. Even THEY went "candy ass!"

      Srsly. Not ONE report of violent party-crashings at brony meetups? Pathetic. If they truly "hate" us so much, they'd go out of their way to suppress and repress us.

      They're all talk, guys. Nobody actually cares.

      Hahahahahahahaha!

      Fair point. It was pretty stupid.
      For me, it's just fun to laugh at media outlets. I just saw the "YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED!!!1!" message and busted out laughing so hard I didn't care any more.
      But yeah, the original question is pretty lame.

      ReplyDelete
    71. Aw, such a shame there's not actually new attack content in the Photo Finish mod. The sprites are new but the attacks are the same...

      ReplyDelete
    72. Oh wow, I actually really like that decal. I don't think it would actually go on my car (at least at this point in time), but I would LOVE to have a high res/vector copy of that image with transparency. Anypony know where I could find one?

      ReplyDelete
    73. It's embarrassing to defend MLP FiM? That's it? No reason? Only because it's quote, "frilly"? Since when?
      I didn't expect such a lame reply to that letter. I'm disappointed in the haters, and personally I think their fellow hater friends should be disappointed too.

      ReplyDelete
    74. Am I the only person here who likes Game Informer and took their response in good humor? They called the mane cast terrifying, and even specifically said "the cartoon sounds genuinely entertaining". I'm not certain when 'frilly' became such an insult to everypony that it would generate this amount of negative response. GI's response to that letter was aimed at the person who wrote it far more than at the show itself.

      tl;dr Calm your tits, you're overreacting.

      ReplyDelete
    75. That Martha Speaks clip was hilarious. "What will you buy for me tomorrow?"

      ReplyDelete
    76. Why do you ponies keep trying to sadden me with Luna in a box?


      That my little investigations video is pretty good, though I wish they'd stop making me want to play it more.

      That school papers awesome. though, Molestia? really?
      Why is everypony so mean to me?

      That Game Informer magazine is a bit ludicrous, more funny than insulting, they didn't even try. The actual email was a fairly silly too.
      I just cant' take them seriously.

      ReplyDelete
    77. @Cedric Bale

      I have more reasons to not like Game Informer than just the fact they pick on FiM. I've never liked Game Informer, it's a cheap, trashy and pathetic magazine with content that no one wants to read. Or content that no one should actually want to read. They bash anything that's not good enough for them and their opinions are childish when they do.

      ReplyDelete
    78. Just to throw in my .02 on the Game Informer article:

      You're a dude fanboying over a little girls' cartoon about magic ponies.

      They're a bunch of brass-balled elitist trolls who think you are gay for fanboying over a little girls' cartoon about magic ponies.

      Sir Brony, I applaud your zeal, but you're trying to fight off an M1 Abrams tank with the Power of Heart.

      ReplyDelete
    79. Stop making awesome Fluttershy plushies that I can't have!

    82. DAT FRIENDSHIP CHART!! It's really well done and very accurate of the relationships b/w the mane six.

      Congrats Gabu for completing another major gameplay feature for My Little Investigations! It's looking really good and I can't wait to reveal more to the public! It's just too bad you didn't get a separate post for MLI, but we'll take what we can get. As for those who commented on MLI, thanks for the interest and please be patient as more stuff gets down with the engine.

      Also, another abriged series? I wonder if this one is worth watching...

      ReplyDelete
    83. Is that really from Game Informer? It doesn't look like them and I can't find that snip in any of my magazines.

      ReplyDelete
    84. Literally began crying as the sad realization set in that I will never be able to own, let alone touch or hug, that Gala Fluttershy plush.

      ReplyDelete
    85. Uh... Haven't we already kind of known about that extra week without ponies? I distinctly remember that Luna Eclipsed was said to air on the 22nd, and on the 29th, closer to Halloween.

      ReplyDelete
    86. Holy shit, I wrote that letter to Game Informer around 3am almost two months ago.

      Didn't think they would actually publish it.

      But hell, I got them to put a picture of the mane cast in Game Informer. Haters gonna hate.

      ReplyDelete
    87. Actually, now that I read it, they cut out parts of my letter to make me sound more fanboyish. I don't really care if they call MLP frilly or w/e, just thought i'd be fun to write in.

      ReplyDelete
    88. @Unknown I don't think it was that ridiculous. Quite frankly either reply had nothing worthy of mention. All the mailer did was list reasons of why the ponies aren't as frilly as one would think. And the response was "lol you like ponies loser" Nothing of note in this.

      ReplyDelete
    89. @Ikusa GT

      It was meant to be ridiculous.

      The first line (which they left out) was something along the lines of I don't take myself or the show this seriously, but I decided to write in for fun.

      ReplyDelete
    90. I wish there were some England Brony Meetups, the English Bronies need love to! The Game informer article wasn't actually that bad, considering what some of the other media outlets have said. Filing for disability anyone?

      ReplyDelete
    91. I didn't see what was so bad with the magazine article. If anything, Angelo had that coming, so vehemently defending the "manliness" of MLP:FIM. The response is pretty accurate though, it is pretty embarrassing trying to defend watching the show, even if only a few close friends know I watch it. I've just gotten to the point where my response is "I watch My Little Pony, and I don't feel the need to have to explain myself". End of discussion.

    96. I'm glad I don't subscribe to that magazine, because I would unsubscribe after reading such close-minded nonsense! :D

      ...and, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't we already know that Luna Eclipsed was going to air twice in a row? It's not going to air three times now, is it?

      A brony writing in to a gaming magazine reputedly operated by jackasses, who then respond by portraying said brony as a jackass and writing up a jackass reply to the letter calling them out on being jackasses.

      Although I stand by my previous comment, I do believe the irony is worth an internet.

    98. As an addendum to my prior comment on the friendship chart, now that I think about it, Rarity / Rainbow Dash should probably be labeled with at least a light blue line for friendly relations as well, especially if the Sonic Rainboom episode and a couple prior events have anything to say about how these two act around each other.

      Rarity was the one who insisted on everyone being there to support RD after all because she knew what kind of pressure she would be under, and although she got carried away with the temporary wings, she was still trying to help RD. Not to mention the whole "saving your friend's life" would add a lot of points between these two as well.

      Plus, looking back to the Swarm of the Century episode, how in Equestria could she possibly have gotten Rainbow Dash to try on things for her if there wasn't at least some kind of friendly standing between them? That's doesn't seem like something RD would just do for some random nobody or just an acquaintance.

    99. I really disagree with a lot of the lines on that chart...It's interesting how people can see things like that differently.

      Did anyone else think of Dr. Seuss when they read Seth's edition descriptor? :D

    100. @Harwick You're not alone in questioning some of the relationships in that chart. I would outright erase the black line between Pinkie and Dashie. She has only fled Pinkie twice: once out of annoyance and fear of offending her, and the second time to try and prevent Pinkie from discovering the surprise party Dashie helped set up. Way I see it, that tension is all in the past now.

      I also find the Pinkie/Rarity relationship line lacking a bit of information that would suggest a friendlier relationship between the two: Rarity has been shown to genuinely enjoy Pinkie's goofiness on occasions, and the two even had the patience (or obsession) to play thirty-five consecutive games of tic-tac-toe, in spite of the fact that Rarity lost every single one. I wouldn't erase the black line here, but I would definitely consider adding a "blue" (cyan, actually) line.

      Pinkie has also, on at least one occasion, gotten underneath Fluttershy's skin by calling herself "Auntie Pinkie Pie" in spite of the fact that Fluttershy is a year older. That is, however, hardly enough to justify adding a black tension line between the two.

      No, that tension line between RD and Pinkie is perfectly justified, Pinkie does annoy RD when they aren't doing things together. Look at Bridle Gossip, the first thing she said when Pinkie does her song about Zecora is "Here we go...", and then toward the end when Pinkie is back to her usual self after the herbal bath, the first thing Dash does is cover her ears.

      If that wasn't enough there's at least a half dozen other instances where their interactions would indicate tension between the two, even if they are on good standing with each other.

    102. The gaps are starting to burn. Burn from anticipation! D:

      I was going to play My Little Investigations anyway, but the new mechanics that are starting to make this game unique are piquing my interest.

    106. Ah yes, Game Informer. The only reason I or anyone else reads it is because it's FREE with your Gamestop membership.

      They do seem awfully, personally offended by ponies though.

    107. I REQUIRE THAT FLUTTERSHY PLUSHY!!! CAN I BUY THAT AT ANY TOYS R US??? DEAR GOD CUTIE OVERLOAD!!!

    108. Game Informer must not have seen the video where Rainbow Dash kicks Starscream's ass and then eats his soul. That's one bad ass filly. They must equally be out of the loop about Fighting Is Magic which means they don't inform anyone of important games negating their magazines title. Oh well.

    113. Nice to see I'm not the only one who dislikes "Game Informer" magazine.
      Granted, they didn't seem to bash bronies/ponies as badly as some sources have in that bit there. I'm sure they might start though, if they get more complaints from "bronies."

      Still, I feel the magazine is heavily-biased in many ways. They have people who hate certain game genres review said games from said genre, (like they have a guy who hates Sonic games review Sonic games) they barely ever cover Nintendo games, (exept popular ones) and pretty much only like the latest FPS and sports games, an occasional obscure game, but overall whatever's "trendy," or "mainstream."

      I remember on their "how to be a proper Sonic fan" article the first statement was you can only like the Sonic games on the Sega Genesis. Yeesh how close-minded can you get?
      (Sure Sonic's had a few stinkers lately, but I still enjoy some of his games personally on other systems to. In fact, I liked most of his DreamCast & GameCube games personally.)

      But what bugs me most is the people who make that magazine acting like everyone does or should have the same opinions they do. They're basically all just typical internet gametards who write it.

    114. I'm a newer brony (just became one last Thursday in fact) and this is my first post here. So, hello fellow MLP fans! Pleased to meet ya! ^^

      I knew about the existence of the game Fighting is Magic, but I had no idea that someone was making an Ace Attorney Investigations style game with ponies. I checked out the latest video and it looks great. I'm a massive fan of the Ace Attorney series as well (I haven't quite gotten around to playing the Miles Edgeworth games yet though), so I'll definitely have to keep my eye on this.

      And that Fluttershy plush looks so awesome. Whoever made it did a fantastic job. If only I could afford it.

    115. I guess I'll throw my own DAT CHART out there. I'm impressed that someone took the time to analyze these characters. I'm even more impressed that these characters CAN be analyzed like this.

      However, I do have my own little nitpick.

      I'm a huge nerd when it comes to things like personality types. I've actually tried matching the Six Mane to types on the MBTI personality spectrum, based on their behavioral patterns as seen in the show.

      The best match I could find for Twilight Sparkle's personality is the INTJ type.

      I'm sure nopony is reading this now... but I actually thought out their astro signs one time. The results I assumed where thus:

      Twilight=Virgo
      Rarity=Capricorn
      Rainbowdash=Aries
      Applejack=Taurus
      PinkiePie=Aquarius
      Rarity=Capricorn

    117. I never listen to a word Game Informer publishes. And I love that they admit that the show "seems entertaining", but they still hate on it. Ignorance is a powerful weapon.

    118. A few things here:

      1) MLI: I can't wait for this to get done! I've never played Ace Attourney, but I wanna play this game!

      2) Friendship Chart: As an aspiring fanfic writer, I both love and dislike this, both because of it's truth. I think I'll save it for reference, but it doesn't change the fact that Pinkie has tense relationships with everypony but Fluttershy.

      3) School newspaper: I wish my school would post ponies in our school newspaper. The most recent edition of it only had one factual article.

      4) GI: Sigh, I have problems with that magazine. Yes, I like that they give news about games that, though I could easily find most of it elsewhere, I'm too lazy to look up, but for one thing, they tend to give PS3 games a higher score than Xbox 360 games. Also, they are being hypocritical in that they are calling MLP "frilly" when I'm willing to bet they haven't even at through 5 minutes of an episode.

      Sorry for the long comment, I just felt like voicing my opinion.
