Twilight is best pet!

Cupcake Dreams Game Final Updates


The Cupcakes Dream flash game that was posted a while back has hit it's release stage. For those that didn't play it before, it's essentially a collecting/platforming game with ravenous baked bads that need to be avoided.

Twilight is truly a very loyal and obedient pet. :3

Risky said...

HELL YES!!! can finally cross that off the list...

Voxel Music Man said...

I saw a fic on earlier and then it disappeared! What was that about?

Bombedrumbum said...

@Risky what about walking away slowly from an explosion?




Anyways, the new ponies dragon names is much better. Thanks for the update!

Coyote said...

that poem its pretty arrogant

its a poem of how awesome bronies are, how seas2 failed (how?) and much more

in short bronies care more about themselves, their own little world than the show itself
its not about the show or the characters its about how self important bronies feel about themselves (as it shows by constantly asking the creators if they "knew about bronies" on interviews and such)

the person that did that should feel ashamed

Risky said...

@Bombedrumbum
Thats on the list too, right after 'ride a giraffe' but I'm in short supply of exploding things...

Jay6 said...

(I like to look through everything in a nightly round-up before posting... rather than going straight for the first)

I just stated that Twilight Sparkle was best pony in the project I'm working on... weird coincidence. My favorite pony will forever be Pinkie Pie though.

Cesco said...

MN Brony meetup!? I'd go, but I have to work! Someone from the meetup should email me at CescoXXVI@gmail.com!

CogWeaver said...

@Coyote
I don't think it was so much bashing S2 as it was just bringing up memories of our anxiety over what it could have turned out as. The main lesson I got from it was that no matter how the show plays out, our connections with one another as part of this community is what's important

InfinityDash said...

Hey look it's my game! Thanks for posting it, again!
I'm still not used to these early nightly roundups! I miss the good ol days when they'd come in around 4-5 am :P
Also,
@Coyote
I have to agree with you about that poem, I think. I realize it's meant to be fun but it does come across as a bit arrogant, and kind of summarizes some of the problems with this fandom (namely, the way it seems a lot of people treat the fandom as more important than the show)

Jelfes said...

Woohoo, more pony presentations and TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

LimeyLassen said...

Once upon a time,

TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

Vinyl Scratch said...

Aww no me this time? Still awesome. I gotta try that ponymon demo.

aki1993 said...

<--------- :) TWILIGHT!! idk why every one likes first...i think 15th is better XD

SpeshBun said...

those speech videos are fantastic!

Woof Hooves said...

i have to disagree..dashie would be the most fun pet..course shy would be most obedient....best would have to be rarity!!!

rpgamer987 said...

In the magical land of Equestria, a kingdom populated only by colorful ponies, TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

DRB_II said...

Now we just need the pony names translated to Klingon.

Jelfes said...

I like t-WILIGHT SPARKLE.

Bunnylisk said...

these "pony pet" images are creepy as hell.

Mattwo said...

@TV Guide Learns Best Pony

Looks more "TV Guide Learns ONLY pony"

Jordan said...

This is the link for that first image of Pet-Twilight: http://nyuuchandiannepie.deviantart.com/art/Twilight-Is-Best-Pet-271652434

Vanishing said...

Oh good, creepy pony pics are now headlining nightly round-ups. Outstanding.

ahumeniy said...

Too bad TWILIGHT SPARKLE has been degraded to supporting character in S2

Dallen said...

Whats with the poems season 2 hate? I am enjoying season 2 a bit more than one so far.

Sparky Luck said...

Twilight is sexiest pet.

I Put On My Thinking Cap said...

That second presentation was well done, hat's off to you sir.

SgtGarand said...

TWILIGHT SPARKLE TWILIGHT SPARKLE TWILIGHT SPARKLE AEIOU


The new Dragon Tongue names do make more sense. Guess that would be like referring to the dragon born as Dovahkiin instead of *insert character name here*

Sure is a lot of pony. But please tell me that's not MLP underwear in front of the Pinkie Fawkes plush o.O

Hmm, sure are a lot of cakes being made. Maybe one day i'll have to make one.

Неверхуд фёдорович said...

At first I was like ok...
But then I TWILIGHT SPARKLE

Mike said...

@DRB_II
^
Now only a matter of time.

Mike said...

@Cereal Velocity
What this pet meme is I don't even...

James Corck said...

That head picture can be interpreted as quite saucy, if it wasn't so adorable XD

Also, Seth, really, name the pictures with more than just 1. Just a heads up buddy ;)

Sethisto said...

@James Corck

I'd have 50 icons on my desktop then!

Ion Storm said...

At MOA on saturday?

I shall be there.

The_Kronz said...

its not that the new seasons is "failing" i think their just trying to hard to please the bronies. instead of looking at it as the target demographic and the parents who may be watching. It seems like they're more concerned about the target demographic plus the bronies who they know are watching

Streamr said...

Dat pet.

It would be cool having Twilight as a pet but what will happen to Spike?

Lasimo said...

Welp, here's to another all nighter!

RazorEye said...

HOLY CRAP! FiM on Foxtel? WHY DIDN'T ANYPONY TELL ME IT ACTUALLY AIRS IN AUSTRALIA!!!!

Pawn Heart said...

Mr. Cameron: I push to have all ponies on Disability Living Allowance to have jobs by the end of next month, or I shall press their wounds.

Mr. Clegg: I'm sorry, David, your argument is invalid because TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

ShayuaHaise said...

Hey cool, my dragontongue translations got posted. I'm glad some people liked them, as a few of them were rather hard to do, and I actually scrapped a few I wasn't happy with, such as Spitfire due to not being able to find the word for Breath (EVEN THOUGH I KNOW IT EXISTS, GRRRR.). Oh well, glad it's being enjoyed!

Also, I liked the poem. It wasn't saying the second season is bad, it was saying that a lot of us were afraid it would be, but even if it was, we still had each other because we're awesome. Right? I don't know.

Aquaman52 said...

@Coyote

...where the heck does it say Season 2 failed? It says had Season 2 failed (as in, a hypothetical situation), the community would've stayed strong and kept supporting each other, because our relationship at this point has developed to the degree that it's encompasses much more than just the show itself. While the rhyme and meter could've been a little more easier to swallow at times, he never once dissed the creators or the show itself. All he's doing is admitting that he values the friendships he's made through the show more than he does the actual show, which is actually pretty awesome.

How the hell is this "arrogant", again?

Octavia said...

Indeed. Twilight is certainly best pet. At least if you don't consider some of the other ponies too. lol But she's so adorable right there. <3

The Cupcakes Dream game is really fun. Looks pretty good overall too. Though there was something I noticed. On the most far right, when I jumped there was a little highlighted box. Not sure what that's for. Only guessing it's probably not supposed to be there. lol

Yay fighting Fluttershy! I'm still waiting for some awesome videos of Fluttershys moves in the game. :D

The Skyrim dragon tongue name translations are kinda cool. Though I'm kinda lost on them and how they work. Also, I am now Briilovaas!

Dat description picture. TWILIGHT SPARKLE! 'Nuff said.

Wow. That's one crazy filled-to-the-brim pony room right there. Someone is a fan. :P I... kinda want one too. lol

The presentations were okay. Dat clap at the end of the first one... so well synchronized. lol The guy in the second one used the term "pegasister" though, ugh. I still dislike that term myself. But more cool presentations.

Yes. Pony definitely make cakes better. Probably more delicious too. :D

I actually liked the poem myself and thought it was pretty decent overall. Though I find it kinda ironic it says "thousands working as one", but of course Seth, Phoe and Cereal are on it as per usual in these things. lol I'll just chalk it up to it being impossible to fit thousands of ponies on there. ;) It really is a nice poem though. I enjoyed it.

Lasimo said...

Drank my coffee, browsed Equestria Daily and saw the Nightly Roundup. Looks like its time for me to head out that, TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

richfiles said...

OF COURSE, I have to work Saturday, and am super busy having to move. And so, I miss yet another MN meet up. Also, in regards to the pony collection, you can never have too many colorful ponies TWILIGHT SPARKLE

Telofy said...

At a time, many years after who was phone, TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

Wierdplatformer said...

Fluttershy moves approved!

Finally, Dragon tongue is mine!

It's Twilight Sparkle's Balloon!

Brohoof to that poem!

JWolf said...

Man I can't wait to see Fluttershy in action.


And why can't I hold all this TWILIGHT SPARKLE?

Forb.Jok said...

@Bunnylisk
What's creepy about them?
It's cure and funny.

Uno said...

At first I tried writing a description, but then I TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

Masquerade said...

Hah! Fluttershy is Fearwing!

lexaeuss said...

Don't know what to think of the poem.
Yes, so far season 2 has been really disappointing, but I'm not giving up the ponies till the very last episode of s2 sucked.

ultra8 said...

Happy 79 million!
Alot of neat stuff tonight.

Harwick said...

Since "Winter Wrap-Up" is the episode that cemented her as my favorite, I'd say that description of it is about as accurate as can be, because TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

And I do kind of miss her being the central focus for each episode, but I do feel like they needed the freedom of the post Lesson Zero format. Still, I can't help but notice that the first three Twilight central episodes of the season were my favorites so far.

Hydra said...

Very good update!

Vortical Pants said...

Finally a meetup I can attend up here in Minnesota! Oh ya, you betcha!

LiuXaun said...

These are all great. I'm not usually drawn in this much by nightly r-TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

Michael Butcher said...

I'm only here because that picture at the top is so damn cute

Background said...

That Twilight pic has 6 little stars around her cutie mark. THERE ARE ONLY SUPPOSED TO BE 5!!!

/kills self

Firleycat said...

Its a well known fact that dramatically stating the name of something is a quick way to increase interest in the item. Just look at anything ever advertised by BRIAN BLESSED.

I like the poem. Granted I'm not a big poetry fan but it has a nice determined feel to it that I like.

JR said...

The MN brony group has been having a meetup every month like clockwork at the mall.

We're on the Rainbow Dash network under meetups, but we don't use that much. (somebody normally posts the meetup times though.)

The facebook group however, has over 200 members and it quite active. search Minnesota bronies on facebook and you'll get it.

Vinnyboiler said...

Awesome I guess I'm going to read the Mane 6 article now, I hope Fluttershy is awesome. TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

gato said...

I can see TWILIGHT SPARKLE becoming our version of Chuck Testa... Or even better (or worse?), Bel-Air...

Yeah, I can already picture some deep, scary and/or emotional stories that end abruptly with TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

charada13 said...

Silly Sethisto, there's no such thing as too much pony!

randomdefence said...

My faithful student,

TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

Gentlecolt said...

I laughed SO hard at that random, TWILIGHT SPARKLE!

Cesco said...

Hey cool, the stain glass-painted panel I put on ebay made it into that presentation! It was a fun surprise to see!

Celestia said...

Ah ponyfeathers, my internet is playing up.

News was good, I like the Dragon tongue names, they're interesting and that cake is awesome (they always are).

While i'm not super intested in Fighting is Magic I really like the actual idea and effort so that looks interesting too.

That description was....odd, I wonder who put it there? *ahem* Twilight Sparkle

CityFlyer502 said...

Finally got around to looking at this. So it appears Twilight has cemented herself as the best pony. I'm pathetic at choosing just one out of a small group, so my favorite tends to vary. Now that fighting game; I might need to play a few rounds of Smash Bros in preparation.

RinellaWasHere said...

I enjoyed the poem, even if I'm not sure what tone it's going for. As for the Dragontongue names, they only further fuel my double addiction.

Pyrobug said...

TWILIGHT SPARKLE, huh? I'm sold.

I love that poem. Very nicely done.

Somepony Else said...

AEIOU

TWILIGHT SPARKLE

Samuel said...

I made a presentation in school
I did well?

SgtGarand said...

@ShayuaHaise I can help ya with that one since I added that translation to the Wiki. Breath = Su'um

KnoxEmerald said...

I believe the answer to everything should be TWILIGHT SPARKLE!

Josh Spicer said...

@lexaeuss

Nice to see your expectations for what "makes" an episode are TOO DAMN HIGH!

Seriously...this season's been great.

IndomiPhoenix said...

That is one awesome poem!

Travis Smith said...

Great thanks for nightmares Seth.

ElectricZoNe said...

Yes season two is awesome.

HMorris73 said...

@The_Kronz
People need to stop thinking this, they're not going out of their way to try and please bronies. It's in your heads. Seriously.

Everlasting Joy said...

Wish I could go to the Minnesota meetup, but I'm busy with my own meetup and the distance is a little too much for me.

Yengahengadergen said...

all those bronies giving speeches are very inspiring

The_Kronz said...

@HMorris73
In our heads?

Rainbow glasses
zecora has a "Zebra" sense
Friendly neighbourhood rainbow dash
completely random ditzy appearances

Oh Yeah their not trying to please us

HMorris73 said...

@The_Kronz
No, they're not. It's already been stated that they're not changing the show on account of the older fans (with the exception of more Derpy/Ditzy), and that all the little references and such (which have been around since the beginning) are for their own amusement.

Michael said...

Oh god, Fluttershy's Dragon Tongue name, "Faasviing", translates to "Fearwing"...interpreted differently, though, that's the most badass and consequently the funniest name for Fluttershy ever.

When I get Skyrim, I am SO naming my character Faasviing. XD

DeRockProject said...

Hey. Personally, I love you guys even more than the show. I just think this fandom is just that awesome. How the hell is that arrogant? (And yeah, that's not the point of the poem, so that's another thing.)

@The_Kronz

What the hell do they do?! Learn about bronies and their memes, then time travel into the fucking past when they started making season two before season one even aired?

Anonymous said...

@DeRockProject This.

I don't approve of that poem though.

DeRockProject said...

@Anonymous

The poem isn't saying season two sucks and the fandom is better than the show. That's only my personal opinion. (Except I'm really loving season two. Don't understand all the complaints. It's a kids' show. Watch it like a kids' show.)

TerraH said...

That poem is so wonderful. I love it so much.

Zyrin Kain said...

Nightmare Moon's dragon name is made of win

The_Kronz said...

@DeRockProject
If anything they should forget about the obscure Internet references and just do the show

Tosxychor said...

"In the magical land of Equestria, a land populated only by colorful ponies,TWILIGHT SPARKLE."

Best laconic S1 description ever.
