Nightly Roundup #160

FIREtavia edition, just because.

I still say this show needs a wacky as hell story arc spinoff with stuff like this. Scratch vs. Tavia music battle with FIRE? Yes please.

Have some news... Lots of news...  Piles of news... If you usually skip roundups, you should probably read this one.


Daniel Ingram's Short Blurb in the Vancouver Sun

Our bro Daniel recently answered a few questions in the Vancouver sun about various musical topics.  It's not specifically pony, but It's still worth a look! check it out here!


Another Pony College Speech



Yep, this is the now official requirement for all college students.


Crazy DDR Pony Song

I played some DDR back in the day, but we never used both pads.  This is absolute madness.




Equestria Online Playable at BroNYCon 

For those attending BroNYCon in January, a new addition to the already jam packed schedule has been added.  The guys from Equestria Online will have a fully playable demo up and running for everyone to try out.  

As always, check out the website here!



My Little Election Campaign

Have some Pasta:

" I'm recording my feelings and impressions for my current project : ponIIE. I'm a student in last year of engineering school. Every year, we make a vote to elect our new student board and before that, there is a campaign. While some students have real ambitions, some others, such as me, create "fake student lists" in order to participate in the fun of the campaign, but without any desire to be elected.
Those groups usualy have strange or surprising themes, and it's only natural for me that I would create a list based on My Little Pony. The plan : make a campaign as if we wanted to change the teachings of our school (a computer engineering school) in order to suit Celestia's teachings."

Yes, more pony presentations!

Dublio said...

Woot, Octavia gets the spotlight for once.

Bombedrumbum said...

Kinda an interesting nightly roundup

Bombedrumbum said...

You really want that story, Seth?



Time to start writing.....

DeeperMadness said...

Oooh, what an interesting design for a wedding cake. ^_^

On another note:

MaximillianVeers said...

GRATS TO KONEKO AND THE MISSUS!

He set up what was pretty much the first EVER SoCal meet, and though it was really small, a million props to him for getting the ball rolling!

sellyme said...

Austraila?? I am disappoint.

Bombedrumbum said...

How is Octavia holding that on-fire wand in the first place?

pell said...

what happened to the bill? did the world win?

Jelfes said...

@Bombedrumbum That is no wand, that's an overused bow!

MLPSeason2 said...

Cant wait until the episode! :D Tomorrow :(

Senior Waffles said...

Heh heh, the radio host or DJ sounds like it physically pains him to say "My Little Pony". One day, he too shall join the herd.

Rubidia said...

Ponies seem to be slowing down a little, darn Skyrim...

Now if you'll excuse me, I've got old Nord tombs to descrate and ancient deads to pilfer.

"Magic" Jak said...

Thanks for the share! Will give you guys a copy/paste next time. ^_^

CraigHS said...

@sellyme

Why so? I don't think the show is on any of the networks downunder yet, I'm getting all mine via the youtoobs. An introductory picnic could be really good for building a brony base down here.

*wishes he could go... stuck in Canberra this weekend*

Heartmend said...

Yay, lots of awesome this time around! (Oh who am I kidding--I always love reading these!)

Yay, a Michelle Creber interview! She has long been my favorite of the CMCs (though I seriously love them all). Apple Bloom is the reason I gave the cartoon a chance. After Apple Bloom's line, "Aren'tcha gonna stay for brunch?" *SADFACE* *blink-blink*, I just had to keep watching. I regret nothing. :)

Unknown said...

And FIRE flew from her fingertips as she rosined up her bow.

Gummy said...

Wait a sec a pen stroke and batty gloom interview?
<.<

*squee*

TheronBrony777 said...

WOOT, Finally a brony meet up in sydney. You can expect me there and i'll try to bring some friends along too.

Blink Storm said...

MW3 Link doesn't work

justing6 said...

@pell

Nope, the banner just got changed. The US Congress is still going to have hearings on it.

8ftmetalhead said...

lol windeu and his hilarious charts.

I should video myself at some point playing pony charts.
At least, playing them properly.
Shame we don't have any dedicabs tho.

Octavia said...

Aw yeah, I'm headlining this Nightly Roundup! :)

As for a wacky spinoff of Vinyl and Octavia battling, well... maybe not from the show itself. So let's leave that to the community artists and such. I like the idea more when I'm not imagining it coming from the actual show itself. lol

Go Daniel. You can tell he's got such a strong and passionate feel for music in animation. Very nice. I'd love to go see that at the Orpheum Theatre. It's going to be one spectacular show, that you can count on.

That speech is pretty low on volume. I love how he just simply starts pulling pony toys out from random places on himself. Haha. Why's he kinda remind me of The Beatles? I think it's his way of talking and the hair. lol Not a bad presentation.

That DDR session was pretty good. I laughed when he started using his head. lol Though, I can say I've seen even better. I remember back a while ago going to the mall and some of the kids there on the DDR pads were just incredible. I've actually seen people doing numerous flips on both pads during a single song. It's wild.

The Equestria Online game is going to have a playable demo at BroNYCon? Do want! Too and I won't be there, grrr! It's going to be such an awesome time come this January. Oh funds, y u so low?

That My Little Election Campaign sounds interesting and kinda fun. Politics isn't my strong suit and not something I'm real involved in, but I'm sure ponies could make politics more enjoyable at least. :)

Ooh, Emerald City Comic Con. And Tara will be there. Fun stuff. It's always a blast wherever she is it seems. And hey, look. So will Rob Paulsen. I've gotten to meet Mr. Paulsen on one or two occasions. Talented awesome guy.

Radio stations talking about MLP and Bronies now too. They really are absolutely everywhere. :P

Look at all those Polish Bronies stylin' in their nice black clothing. The two on the far left seem so out of place amongst all the black. But at least one is wearing a black jacket. lol

More delicious pony cake for me to nom on and then pretend like I didn't do anything wrong at all. :D Are those little shiny stars on it edible? I sure hope so...

Mare in the moon mod for Skyrim... but of course. :P

Oh wow. They put the stained glass pony window up on Ebay. It's only at $305 with 10 hours left. I would have expected that piece to get over a grand. Well, it still has some time left. It's so impressive. If that goes for that much it's going to be a steal. lol

Unknown said...

Seth wants a wacky, over-the-top spinoff with the likes of an Octavia vs. Scratch battle. So, it would basically be like Scott Pilgrim vs, the World?

Hmm.......*GASP!* [Rarity]IDEEEEAAAAA!!![/Rarity]

Dashie said...

PinkieDash/RainbowPie is best ship.

Octavia said...

that guy on the radio sound like Cave Johnson :D

Jango-Fett said...

Looks like I'm off to Sydney.

ibneko said...

Weeeelp. I'm out of time. Here's a snippet of terrible writing. Free to use, steal, molest, alter, modify, etc. I can't really claim credit for the original seed of the idea, but I'd love credit if this ever gets anywhere. Permissions are set of if you have the link, you can change the contents.

Unfortunately, I didn't actually get to the point where Octavia's bow catches fire. Or the music lights her bow on fire. Or something. ::ish a sad kitty for failing::

crazyBE said...

Octavia has the power of one of the characters from the last season of Heroes.

Amster said...

One thing I need to mention: it's Wroclaw, not Wrolaw...you silly filly :P

Selevan said...

Its Wroclaw, not Wrolaw. Just saying.

GeN said...

Opera House Brony meet up?! I AM THERE!

Ajin said...

Huh... Who knew I'd learn about Spazzy getting married on EQD before I found out about it on Furaffinity...

Small world.

Freekles1245 said...

On... Discovery Kids...
At least it´s coming, YAY~

Joel said...

Love all these presentation speeches! Will definitively do one if I get the opportunity!

Gunner said...

MW3 link don't work :(

jodyjm13 said...

Daniel Ingram, talking about the Vancouver animation scene: "We're quite a hub of creativity in contemporary animation."

Clever, very clever. ;)

Skyshadow said...

Wrolaw? Never heard of it.
You mean Wroclaw didn't you?

ZAquanimus said...

bah,
now i'll never get the stained glass piece ;_;

ultrazoid_ said...

wow that main pic is such a win!!! :D
Anypony know about a brony meet-up in Melbourne, Australia? Also I want that skyrim mod so bad :DDDDDD

Forderz said...

That stained glass... at that price, its a steal... but I've already blown all my pony budget!

wadegmc said...

damn fine roundup, damn fine

[tt]gab[TT] said...

ok i'm waiting for a brazilian meet up until december!!! would be great to know brazilians bronies...

foxshine said...

@Ajin

That's exactly what I thought, too. lol

GaruuSpike said...

Seth, the two-pad thing isn't new. It's called Doubles mode. I think it's been around since DDRMax. :U

Jason said...

Awesome, my speech made it onto EQD!

My Human Comm teacher, who is probably the strictest guy in the entire department, actually has a rule that any speech we give has to be "scholarly" and "relevant to students." Other classes were able to give speeches on whatever random topic they wanted, like the Werewolf Trials or professional wrestling. We had speeches on drugs and sex, pretty much.

So, aside from giving this presentation, I also had to persuade him that ponies were a relevant and scholarly topic. Success.

And, on a side note, I showed up to class with ponies hidden in my sleeves for three days because I wasn't sure when I was going to present. It REALLY messes up their hair and I wouldn't recommend it.

Kent State Bronies, represent!

frith said...

The artwork that Southparktaoist has on her Christmas stockings is quite nice. Maybe it would be worthwhile for her to get together with Pinfilly and make pins out of them, similar to the Bambi Happy Holidays 1998 pin?

otakon17 said...

Well, I've been dumbfounded. First, a MW3 Clan with a ponies theme. Now I wish I owned the game. Second, a blazing Mare in the Moon mod for a game only a week old ALREADY?! By Odin's Beard! This fandom moves at lightspeed, I sure of it by now.

Farnor said...

I don't my skyrim to be overriden by ponies, but I'll definitely use sober mods like the mare in the moon one. It looks great.

Freekles1245 said...

[tt]gab[TT] Damn right! All i can do is wait though.
But it would be really good to meet other brazilian bronies.

DiscordMane said...

Just one day for new episode...AND THREE DAYS FOR PONIES IN MEXICO!!!
yay

The Numberman said...

@CraigHS What do you mean you're 'stuck' in Canberra? Canberra is the bawse*. Rather spend my weekend there than in Adelaide...

*I'm a political nerd

Wolf_Plushtoy said...

That radio clip is actually from John Tesh's syndicated radio show, broadcast on almost 400 stations across the US, Canada, New Zealand, and even one in the UK.

Dawid said...

@Unknown
Fingers? What are fingers?

Anna said...

Is it only me that see the clouds in the Skyrim shot forming a prancing pony?

Big Love said...

So I can't find this MW3 clan. It says it doesn't exist. :/

Celestia said...

@Unknown

And now I have to go listen to that, not that thats a bad thing of course.

News was interesting, I like that wedding cake.

ThemsAllTook said...

That's actually In The Groove, not DDR. And good grief, that stepchart... I'm a fan of the hard stuff, but this is ridiculous.

McClellan97 said...

@Dublio
yes. Finally. Octavia is the best

Sirrus said...

Nightingale Trixie would be so epic! Nice roundup, too.

pmcollectorboy said...

San Antonio meet up! I'll be there!

eaglehooves said...

@Jason That is win. I'm so jealous of the KSU Bronies right now. If you ever push ponies on your class again, I've got a .mp3 recorder and external mic I don't use that often I could send to you.

CWRU Bronies, represent! (Please? You're around here somewhere, right?)

Vedinamel said...

Urgh! I feared the day it would come to Brazil. The little voice acting in the commercial sounded too childish. I fear they'll change the names to something completely silly, like change "Nightmare Moon" to "Lua Maluca" (Crazy Moon) or something similar.

LLLLL said...

@Jason

Woot, Kent State! KSU Physics Department Pegasister, here... :)

Petra Leão said...

[tt]gab[TT]

@[tt]gab[TT]

We actually already had our first brazilian meet up last sunday at São Paulo, Brazil! ^_^ We already sang WINTER WRAP UP in a front of an Art Museum in the most already known avenue of the city, Paulista Avenue.

We're still editing photos and videos, but as soon as possible I'll be posting on my blog (http://equestriabr.wordpress.com) and sending to EqD! ^_^

Melody said...

@Vedinamel
seconded
on one hoof, im happy its finally coming.
on the other hoof, the voices suck, its airing in discovery kids(no offense intended, but it IS a child-targetted channel), and i dont think itll have the same effect here in br(if not the total opposite thanks to poor voice acting and ads).
yeah...i guess the negative hoof wins.
sorry for being so negative everypony, but thats just my opinion, so...you know...whatever oyu want to think of it is fine...

Melody said...

@Petra Leão
WHAT?! there was a meeting in sp?! and so close to my place? how come i didnt know about it? will there be another one? coltdamn it! i cant believe i missed something like that...

Petra Leão said...

@Vedinamel

@Vedinamel

They will not change the names because of the copyrights. On these days, all the Toy makers are keeping the names on the original to unify the trademarks and make easier to export and translate the toy boxes around the world.

Here in Brazil one chapter was dubbed already (it came in a DVD with some toys), and the names were exactly as in the original series. Unfortunately, the voice acting was actually terrible -- we BR-onies expect another voice actors now the show is going to be broadcasted on TV (but I'm really afraid about it...)

Petra Leão said...

@Melody

@Melody

Oh, dear! o_o I posted about it on my blog (http://equestriabr.wordpress.com/2011/11/09/1o-bronyencontro-brasileiro-rola-no-proximo-domingo/) Keep an eye on it and you'll know when the next's gonna happen!

Are you in the brazilian forum for bronies, Sonic Rainboom? If you're not, it would be a great if you could join, we guys and gals of this forum made the meet up happen =)

Vedinamel said...

@Petra Leão

I'm glad that they'll leave the names alone, thanks for the info, but I still have no hopes it will be as good as the US version. Since it has "My Little Pony" on the title I don't think the voice actors will put much heart into it.
However I'd like to know who will be voicing Pinkie and Twilight and see if there is any way to contact them, I would like to know what they will think of the show after they dub "Party For One" and "Lesson Zero".

Petra Leão said...

@Vedinamel

To be honest, I have no hopes about it too. I love some voice overs in portuguese and even rather them to the original, but from what I've seen so far, the voice actors are not doing a good job, actually =_=

But I'll expect until watch the first episode in portuguese (will b on air next monday, november 21) to talk properly about it.

WhiteDiamonds said...

...Actually Rarijack is the best pony ship. *poker face* Though yes, I agree PinkieDash is actually oddly endearing as well! ^^;

And an Opera House meetup; how incredibly envious am I! You lucky Australian ponies you... *pout*

That glass art auction ended up going for far less than I originally imagined it would (I was thinking it would get to be over a grand, easily, considering some of the plushie auctions we've seen before); I guess congrats are in order for the lucky pony who ended up winning it at a more reasonable price. Originally I was really, really wishing I could try and sneak in on the auction too, but then I read the full item description properly and realized the piece is not actually a true leaded glass-work, but just made to replicate one... not quite as fabulous but still a lovely piece of course. But anyway.

@Jason

Kudos! ^_^

Forderz said...

Man I can't believe it went for a paltry 335.... I wonder what the winner's maximum bid was?

EnergizerBonnie said...

Even Seth supports Rainbow Pie.
OTP, YUHH.

waffle911 said...

Silly Seth, that's not an Epic Meal Time Phone Case, that's a modified version of the Experimental Jetset "JPRG" typography design scheme that's so popular nowadays.
