Nightly Roundup #201

Twilight Sparkle is best pony all ponies edition. That's right. The sun has set on another day and it's time for me to get out my keyboarder collie and have it herd the news right here. Check it all out after the break.

Rainbow Dash on Cover of Newspaper
Click the picture for link. See? I'm learning how to EqD!
Ponies are now on the cover of a newspaper that people actually receive and read. It's crazy. I never would have thought this was even possible back when I joined the fandom in December!

Presumably Psychic Person Predicts Ponies


This is a video from January 2010 where a guy totally hits the nail on the head about ponies becoming a phenomenon. Apparently it didn't catch ONE person off guard! Check it out here.

Maplestory Guild


For any of you that play Maplestory, a guild has popped up for you to join. I used to play maplestory. And by "used to play maplestory" I of course mean "tried it for a few hours when I was 12".

Copypasta below.



Game: Maplestory
Guild Name: Equestria
Server: Windia
Requirements to join: None, all classes and levels may join.
Contact: LunaEonRalis (In-Game IGN) or E-mail at EquestriaWindia@hotmail.com
Note: I'm not the guild leader but a Jr. Master, for the guild leader is inactive. However, I can continue to keep the guild running.


MLP: FiM Review


Another review is up on the youtubez. Check it out here.

BwB Episode Five


New episode of Babble with Bronies is approaching. Go here and click on the "show" link.

Mechwarrior Online References Ponies


Mechwarrior Online is the latest thing to get bitten by the pony bug. Soon, when the pink moon rises, the transformation will begin. Check it out here and here. (The reference in the last one is the authors.)

Sweetie Scoot 2 NEEDS YOU!


You heard me, folks! The sequel to Sweetie Scoot needs fanart! As I'm sure you all remember, the first Sweetie Scoot was a transcendent masterpiece of game design and storytelling, so you should all go here and help him out!

Screwattack Mentions Humble Brony Bundle


You guys. You guys. Ponies are everywhere.

Silly PK...

DJ-Pinkamina said...

Awake for another... confound insomnia! Seth bro, idk how you live without sleep

DeeperMadness said...

That newspaper link doesn't work (on the mobile version at least).

It's actually a pretty quiet round up tonight, despite the bonanza yesterday.

Gypsy said...

everypony is best pony, even diamond tiara and silver spoon

Ditzy Doo said...

Why is Dash's tail behind Ariel?

Israel Solis said...

Colorado meet-ups, where are they?! It's so lonely over here ;-;

richfiles said...

Um... Does Nopony recal Rainbow Dash being on the COVER PAGE of THE Wallstreet Journal. It was November 2 or 4th... can't recall.

Tast said...

Likin this PK guy.

SpanglePony said...

I'm a fan of Twilight as best pony, but I have to say that she is second to Luna in my book. A VERY CLOSE second, but second nonetheless. Good roundup as usual. Nice to see the love and tolerance continuing to spread.

bestpony? AJ ;) said...

Stayed awake for the nightly roundup, my night is complete.

kfish5050 said...

I accidentally awake for one of these again? Confound this winter break! It drives me to ponies all night!

The Numberman said...

How could I forget Twilight is best pony?

PK said...

Oh, the post image is animated if you click on it, too.

RainbowLeader 510 said...

Rainbow Dash shipped with hipster Ariel? It was bound to happen eventually.
Good roundup PK! I felt compelled to read every part of the roundup this time.

No_Brand_Hero said...

@Ditzy Doo

I think Ariel is supposed to be sitting on Dash's back. It's just not drawn very well.

Octavia said...

I lieks me sum Twilight Sparkle.

Dat hipster Ariel. With a "Dash" of pony. Aww, yeah!

About the guy who "predicted" ponies would become a big internet phenomenon a good ways back... a lot of us back then were already predicting that. lol Myself included. Not long after it started airing and was being passed around 4chan a whole lot, I was guessing it would stem into something larger.

That long video review was already posted here the other day. :P But sure, why not?

Yay, a sequel to the ever popular game, Sweetie-Scoot. x3

Over $16k from the HumbleBrony Bundle, jeez. Still kinda amazing so much was raised. And it jumped up so high in the last day or so. Really nice.

"Remember, Twilight Sparkle is Best Pony"

Doh ho ho! U so silly.

Rubidia said...

That guy on Youtube is some kind of prophet, I swear...

Ford said...

Twilight is Best Pony? Um...I guess. She's definitely the pony that has the most influence on the show by a currently insurmountable lead.

derpy dash typhlosion said...

what was i supposed to remember?............oh thats right Rainbow Dash is best GOD

naahdude said...

Ewww, ponies aren't a meme.

ahumeniy said...

Off course Twilight Sparkle is best pony

gillnavisingh said...

How can @Tast be liking PK NOW of all times?

He friggin wrote ANTIPODES...
...
Which I haven't gotten around to reading...

But he's a nice guy!

Just for Tast's comment, I'm sending PK another free game.

And don't try to stop me, buddy!

Devlin115 said...

Still...Luna is the best..for me and others

TechnoTrot said...

While nosing around the internet, I found THIS little beauty.

Dissidia Final Fantasy. Ponified.

Fadhil Anshar said...

And Rainbow Dash is in the cover of a newspaper.

SUCCESS.

Alexstrazsa said...

Hey everyone, I'm actually the leader of that Maple Story guild. You can contact me by whispering "Cabriolete".

ALazyFriend said...

>Remember, Twilight Sparkle is Best Pony

silly, that's not how you spell Applejack. Oh well one more day to go til new year

Dibullba said...

Apparently the Pony Review was so good it got featured in NR #200 and #201. Double feature all the way, what does it mean.

Pyrobug said...

@TechnoTrot

Jecht pony is best pony (sorry Zidane pony). Also, Prishe pony! My life is now complete.

DashXColt said...

Twilight Sparkle is best pony?

About time you guys spell it right =P

Website with a forum where we in Colorado can congregate and discuss meetups, amongst other things.

FreezingShock said...

That psychic guy was pretty interesting. While I wouldn't go so far as to say he predicted bronies, seeing how he mostly speaks of kids, it is still impressive.

Kyronea said...

@FreezingShock

Calling him a psychic goes way too far, in my opinion...this guy made a prediction based upon the evidence he had at hand. He didn't predict the Brony phenomenon or anything...he simply predicted that the show would turn out to be influential.

Tears of a Valedictorian said...

I couldn't find the CR interview mentioned yesterday. Did anyone catch it, was it on Celestia Radio?

Maquabra said...

Appearance of nightly roundup prophecies that story updates will show up soon!

Freekles1245 said...

Dancing Twilight is so cute. Shake that girl

Scootalong said...

Hipster Ariel does not approve of riding on the two most popular things on the internet.

Also, I played MS for the better part of my years in high school. :>

Ditzy Doo said...

@No_Brand_Hero

Oh I know. That was just my lame way of pointing it out.

Vinny said...

Good job PK. Better roundup then the last few.

Glutton said...

Please visit my blog containing ponies galleries http://wearebronies.pl and thank you a lot.

Cátsy said...

Applejack: *crushes orange* It's... over... TWO-HUNDRED!!!!

Rainbow Dash: WHAT? TWO-HUNDRED?!?

Fluttershy: yay~

*world blows up*

Fluttershy: too loud? *meep*

overslept on the congratulatories for 200 so here's a OVER 200 grats!

graywolf71 said...

So we have Ariel riding Dash dow Nyan cat's rainbow. Hmmmm..... About as random as you can get :P
However it is similar to something (hint: a certain cartoon from the 80's).

CharginChuck said...

Oh my Celestia, that Pinkie ring....

I don't want to say what that "chocolate rain" really looks like....

Travis Smith said...

Oh how I love your misguided ways, Twilight Sparkle best pony, hahahaha

Good to see we're still taking over the world

Misc. Brony said...

In the pony psychic post, you said he predicted this in January. The video was posted in July.

Silly PK.

Wollffeey said...

Hmm, somehow this has the Fan fiction tag applied to it. I have the no fan fiction link bookmarked so I would have missed it entirely if someone hadn't posted a link on Facebook.

Just something to keep in mind, PK.

A Bard said...

@Tears of a Valedictorian

It hasn't aired yet. It starts today at 2:00pm Central.

goldenCapitalist said...

Twilight Sparkle IS best pony!


But then Rainbow Dash.

Bombedrumbum said...

A Maplestory guild on Windia?? It's about time. I got to level 70 3rd job Priest in two weeks last summer because I got bored, then I quit and went to ponies. I once had a guild. Now I don't. When I get back home, i'm going to try to join it

Syntaxcapt said...

Oooo...Thanks for the dancing Twilight Sparkle, PK!

CTOONfan1 said...

@naahdude

Technically, we are. A meme is something that spreads rapidly around the internet. Since I pretty much can't go anywhere without ponies popping up, it technically counts as a meme.

ftfc said...

"Twilight Sparkle is best pony!"

See this is how I know PK is best Blog Pony!
Can't wait for sweetie scoot 2!

Son Gopaul said...

Oh man, if that Maplestory Guild was on the European servers... I might just start playing again...

ClosetBrony said...

@richfiles

The Wallstreet Journal aritcle wsa on Friday, November 4th, 2011. Still have a copy at my desk.

Raven said...

Pk belives that Twilight is best pony? PK, you are now my new favorite EqD blogger. =D

ClosetBrony said...

Is it just me or did anyone else notice that that article didn't mention ponies much less Bronies?

And I agree; Twilight Sparkle is best pony.

NOFURR said...

>Latin Spanish Episodes
What is it Latin or Spanish? They are two different languages.
Sorry but that always bugged me.

DashAttack said...

>Remember, Twilight Sparkle is Best Pony

I might actually be okay with this.

Tamari said...

A Medicine Hat meetup? What? Well it's about time!

Broznik said...

>Remember, Twilight Sparkle is Best Pony

...I thought this was obvious?

Tears of a Valedictorian said...

@A Bard

That's great, thanks for your help, Mr Bard.

NakedKitten said...

>Remember, Twilight Sparkle is Best Pony

Silly! That isn't how you spell "Rainbow Dash". Now is it?

Foxbadger said...

That guy didn't just hit the nail on the head, he beat the everloving crap out of it with a sledge hammer.

Rarisu said...

@Alexstrazsa

Hey Cabriolete, it's me Ralis, apparently I got kicked out of the guild somehow, and I have no ways of contacting you. May I know why I got kicked out? Yet, some guild members are contacting me what happened, so I hope you do read this comment, for there is no other way I can contact you. ;-;
