PinkiePieSigh said...

FUCK YEAH! FILIPINO BRONIES. Sorry but when I read that article, I couldn't stop smiling. XD

clarin-ed said...

What happened to that wikia awards thing? It disappeared or something.

CityFlyer502 said...

I'm awake for another roundup. Yay? (Almost 3am on my end.) Lots of good all around here. I just might put my computer to use for that Brony@Home project. And now I seriously want to get Mario Kart. OK, I've said my piece. Now I should seriously get some sleep.

Unknown said...

finally awake for one of these. ponies helped.

CanterEdlund said...

Past Sins MST3K..? *facehoof* I am not opposed to the practice, or even riffing Past Sins specifically. But... what am I reading?

Sunset Sprinkles said...

Why didn't we have a roundup last night? And ahh we're almost to #200!

LittleBrendon said...

3 AM is like noon for me

The Numberman said...

I've still not watched Avatar. Also that cake is awesome*!

*All cake is awesome. Ponies make them more so.

Watchit said...

lol Avatar winter wrap up sounds better than some foreign attempts :P

Luke said...

Winter Wrap Up in Klingon. Make it happen Bronies!

Drakengarde said...

>E-mailed Seth about Live Show on Ustream on Jan. 7th
>Get reply saying it will be in the Roundup.
>Blurb about live show not in last two roundups.

*fist shake* Sethisoooooo!

...ah well, at least you posted my Mario Kart group info. Thanks for that! :D

Octavia said...

Yay Berry Punch. Means it's the drunk edition. :D

Winter Wrap-Up translated into Na'vi? I didn't even know that was possible. Didn't know there was a whole actual constructed language for it. lol Though now that you mention it, this does sound vaguely familiar.

The Manila article was very good. Very positive. Though the writer identifies as a Brony themselves, so that's so be expected. :P Even met another there while they were looking at the toys. Only thing I didn't like about the article was they used that term. "Pegasister". I really dislike that term. lol But Fluttershy, yay! Good choice. ;)

Unsure if the Columbia banner is a true reference or just coincidence. It might be. Honestly wouldn't surprise me if it were.

Cake! But awww... only normal dancing Twilight, huh? Well, it'll have to do. lol

The cabin in that TF2 video looks so warm and cozy, mmm. A nice warm cabin during Christmas with all the ponies around. Best. Christmas. Ever. :)

Octavia said...

And now there's an animation of Mic... stating 3 days. What does it mean?! lol

Ink said...

Threeeeeeee daaaaaayyyyysssss
Now I'm curious xD

Good night Seth! It's time for BOTH of us to get some sleep lol but seriously you need to go to bed! Great roundup as usual tho :)

thomas said...

Thanks for the round up! Gief me that cake!

Chaoyll said...

@The Numberman

I watched it for like the fifth time yesterday cause it's always on the damn tv. xD I don't mind it though, since I quite like that film, despite its very basic plot. (lolplot.)

I have to wonder what happened to yesterday's roundup though...

Scout said...

Dat Gif of mic made me Squee.

Arcane Scroll said...

So, did anyone else immediately Google "PipBoy Diary"?

Broznik said...

It's not my birthday, but my name is James! That cake pic just made my day! ^_^

Andech said...

@Aduro
Mic the Mic is a popular brony musician. Putting it simply.

Haze said...

Dat Winter Wrap Up, also, awesome cake!

Gummy said...

Dat Gif......what does it mean!? what does mic have in store for us?!

13medaau said...

I don't know where to say this but Notch just said he wants to "get beaten by bronies! For charity!" - http://twitter.com/#!/notch/status/151600488645799936

Foxbadger said...

I wanna know what Mic's up to...

Rubidia said...

Dat Kkat interview...

We shall forever miss FoE, Kkat, and we wish thee good luck wherever you decide to go next.

Stunt Monkey said...

I wonder what Mic has planned in 3 days?

David said...

Man, that interview with KKat. We need to add that as a chapter to the Fallout: Equestria page, just a little bonus snippet after that amazingly heart-warming ending. Don't know if KKat follows these round-ups, but if she does...

KKat, I know I've gushed a lot in the comments for FO:E, but my heart hasn't yet realized that and demands I gush some more. You really are a bright-spot in the whole community, and do this fandom proud. If there's any one thing I can point to as evidence, that certain something to show others what they're missing by not immersing themselves into MLP:FiM's rampant community engagement, it's always Fallout: Equestria.

I know this is going to sound absolutely blasphemous to some, but I ended up anticipating updates to FO:E more than I anticipated new episodes of MLP:FiM. I distinctly remember one Saturday at the end of a crazy hectic week, and had two tabs open. One was the recently upped YouTube page of May The Best Pet Win. The other tab was the newest chapter of Fallout Equestria.

You beat Charlotte Fullerton.

Swear to God. I just couldn't put your story down. It shows that while I was drawn in by the TV show, it opened the door to finding stories and experiences much greater than the show itself, and Littlepip is a definitive example of such.

Never stop writing. It's definitely your strong suite. Because as I've said earlier, you did something amazing to me. You made me do something I hadn't done in many years. You had me actually enjoy reading again.

A good author gets readers.

A brilliant author creates readers.

Congratulations once more and thanks for the awesome story. There'll never be anything like it ever again...

...Which makes me both happy and sad. Joyous to have been there, to have actually borne witness to its creation. But bitterly reminiscent that the main arc is done with. If you do write any mini side stories, you'd better believe I'll be all over them and squealing giddily like a pig under a ruptured septic tank.

The Numberman said...

@Chaoyll I've always missed it every time it has been on TV. Ridiculousness.

As for the Round Up, I'm saying Santa gave the gift of a night off.

zombie pony? said...

3 days and Mic the Microphone? He has some anger veins on his ear in the gif and he seems huffy, so whatever it is, maybe it's not nice.

Jelfes said...

I loved that Past Sins mockery thing. A few parts had me laughing hard.

Tosxychor said...

The interview with Kkat YESSSSSSSSSSSS
And also, that's one nice GIF there. I wonder how much win I should expect in 3 days :D

11monkeys said...

In Stuttgart, eh? That might be close enough for me, allthough I wonder how it‘ll work.
I‘m not exactly an american soldier.

Heavybull said...

Mic? whats up with him....3 days? what?

S008 said...

New year rap battles? No, that'd be too obvious.

Wait, wait! 3 days 'till the video of him slapping Makkon with a garden gnome makes it to EqD? :>

Suntail Hawk said...

3 days... Mic has me intrigued now. For the record, I'm calling a release of an Epic Pony Rap Battle of History. I'll guess we shall wait to see what he has in store for us.

Suntail Hawk said...

My bad... I meant Equestria, not History.

TyphFerdinand said...

I'm pretty sure Mic will give us the awesomeness!

Kyronea said...

The interview with Kkat was especially interesting, particularly learning things like how he apparently had never finished a story before Fallout Equestria. It makes me feel nowhere near as bad about my previous attempts at writing(which all without fail ended before being finished) as well as inspires me to keep writing, even when I feel frustrated with how it's not turning out as I'd hoped.

Masquerade said...

Winter Wrap Up works in every language.

commanche105996 said...

*curls up in a ball under the moon* 3 days... 3 days... 3 days...

gclaw4444 said...

oh mic, what you up to. if i had to guess its epic pony rap battles of equestria

Misc. Brony said...

Nobody made a Majora's Mask reference yet.

I'm so disappointed in you guys.

ItsOkImAwesome said...

@Suntail Hawk

Epic Pony Rap Battles of History?

You're a genius.

Senior Waffles said...

Columbia Sports Jacket - That has been their motto for close to four years, if I recall correctly the dialogue of the commercials go like this, "I'm cold, but omniheat is not. That's because little tiny dots inside reflect heat back to you, keeping you 20% warmer than normal jackets". So if anything, whoever wrote Dash's famous line probably got the inspiration from that.
Really liked the news article, though when she talks about the target audience it kind of sounds like that because bronies are such a large demographic that the show is aimed at them. It does say specifically that the target (and thus primary) audience is young girls but the way she presented it may have been a little ambiguous.

Daisymare said...

I wonder what Mic has cooking in 3 days.

Johuotar said...

Ugh mayby Ill read more of FOE someday. Too busy now though.

@Johuotar

Gesundheit.

Wait, that wasn't a sneeze? I'm sorry I...I don't understand that sentence. Is it possible to string those words together in the english language? :o

Loved, love loved loved loved FoE. I anticipated new chapters as much as I anticipated new episodes. I always watched the new episodes first because I often times for references to them in the newest chapters.

To Kkat, thank you. :) the 'FiM' really stands for "FoE is magic". :)

In other news... I love that cake!!

Spazturtle said...
