Pull the lever, you know you want to...

Or if you are scared, you can watch it after the break instead.

@Applebloomismywaifu How can you know that it was so awesome if your comment was posted at the same time as the post =O ;)

B34r said...

Oh god the parasprites!

D. Shadows said...

It's a never ending tide of celebration!

Applebloomismywaifu said...

@Dantes_Grill because minecraft + ponies = instant win

CityFlyer502 said...

BEST VIDEO EVER! And I am so playing that tune on the next piano I see.

Hat said...

O_O THE LEVER DID NOT DISAPPOINT
It looks like the portal is going well, too!

WizardWannabe said...

Ha! Pull the lever, Kronk!

Also, not a minecraft player, I didn't know you could put aniamtions like that in it.

CityFlyer502 said...

@WizardWannabe WRONG LEVER!!!...sorry, I just had to say that :P

Dantes_Grill said...

@Applebloomismywaifu IT IS!? Have to get it soon and build some ponies then X)

D. Shadows said...

@CityFlyer502

Never really liked the series all that much, but the two movies were good.

MLPPinkiefan said...

Congrats Seth and the crew. As somepony who's been around since before the 10 million mark, I'm crazy excited to see EqD grow so fast. It's a testament to how great everypony has done! Thanks Cereal, Phoe, and Sethisto!

CityFlyer502 said...

@D. Shadows Well specifically, I was quoting the first movie & the first time it happened.

Celestia said...

"Pull the lever, Kronk" Hehe, that is seriously brilliant though.

ChrisCola said...

WRONG LEVEEERRR-

Oh wait, somebody already said that... dang it :)

Anonymous said...

So how many people were constantly staring at the view counter for half an hour until it hit 100 million?

D. Shadows said...

@CityFlyer502

I'd prefer a pit of snapping turtles over the alligator thing anyday, but that's my villainous preference. Still putting something to identify the levers wouldn't hurt, even if it was only something Kronk would know like a recipe for spinach puffs.

I wonder what other celebrations will come today or is that all of them? Come on Madmax, we know you're out there and you've yet to let us down.

Ahiam94 said...

That was pretty cool.

Menti said...

OMG.

How in the world did you manage to do this?

Mind=blown.

BakedBad said...

How ponies can make such complicated works in Minecraft never ceases to amaze me.

CityFlyer502 said...

@D. Shadows I'd list my idea of villainy right here, but in all honesty, I don't have a shred of villainy in me. Except when I'm on the road...

This day is pretty much going to be a never ending party...at least until we run out of 100 million material.

Ten said...

Now that was cool. Loving these congrats videos! Keep em coming!

D. Shadows said...

@Menti

Pistons... lots of them moving all at once and need I remind you they can only move so many blocks? The planning was almost spot on if a bit jerky at parts.

ZeroHero said...

Haha. "Pull the lever, Kronk!!" :D (favorite animated movie, right there)

This was nice. Minecraft is the perfect celebratory tool. :) Great job on that.

And Happy 100,000,000 hits EQD! :D Here to another great year!

Sketchy Sounds said...

That... that was awesome. Totally awesome.

Harwick said...

Why don't we even have that lever?

I don't play minecraft, but that was truly astounding. Well done!

Syntax said...

That was so awesome!!! Honestly what some people do in minecraft really does amaze me

Guarddogjr said...

That was amazing best thing to wake up to!

Joystik said...

this was awesome. i really must check out Minecraft

D. Shadows said...

@D. Shadows

He lies, it isn't pistons at all. Check the channel to see the secret behind the animations!

Wait... but that's me... no... it can't be... I've cloned myself again. Exuse me I've got a shotgun to load up.

Akirasip said...

Jaw just dropped after seeing this epicness.

Moricai said...

1st, I expected explosions.
Then, I was pleased with music.
Then, my head exploded from thinking of the redstone required to make this work.

Victory Star said...

Pull leaver.exe
Recive pony!
:D

ftfc said...

That was awesome! We really need to play minecraft though.

Flowerzinc said...

Oh god! Someone still remembers The Emperor's New Groove!

Bionic-Pony said...

0_0 that was amazing!!!

James Corck said...

That was a lot of fun to watch indeed.

Heartmend said...

I've been here since forever. It's amazing how much this fandom has grown.

I remember bugging Sethisto on Friday night, before BroNYCon, right when he was trying to make an update (Sorry dude!). Who would have ever thought this could happen?

I freaking love this fandom.

I was just watching Giggle at the Ghostly. It's funny how when I first saw that, I rolled my eyes and couldn't believe they were going to sing. Ugh. And now...now it's one of my favorite songs ever. I can't help but smile at it, no matter what sort of mood I'm in.

Thank you to everypony who made this crazy and wonderful fandom possible. n_n

EonMaster said...

This guy deserves a medal.

Confluttershy said...

nice 'little' animation
have you read the fun facts? 100% CPU usage on all 6 cores ... my Celestia that's brutal!

DonSerrot said...

First off I just have to say grats on yet another milestone in the life of EqD! Someday we'll look back and call this moment a baby step in the fandom, but right now it's a massive cause for celebration. It's time for a party! :D

Secend I've been looking for a good time to comment on it and I think this is it, the recent update to the mobile theme and the comments looks great! I love it and all of you for connstantly pushing to keep this the best place for all things pony, keep up the great work! :D

The Grey Potter said...

As a minecraft player... I have no idea how they did. Magic? I'm going with magic.

Fluttertroll said...

Awesome animation... While watching I knew the moment the level got pulled that this was gonna take a lot of CPU power... Looking at the requirements in the description i'm awestruck.... wow... Too bad that it becomes useless after 1 use

Grats EQD and all the ponies who helped get this far. PMV artists, Composers, Comic artists, Wallpaper artists, Fanfic artists, etc... Best fandom ever... 2 years ago i would have shot myself for watching technicolor ponies on TV... now i'm ok with this.

JC said...

Okay, that was seriously awesome. "Pull the lever, Kronk!" was a nice touch.

Blaze52 said...

0_0 How.. What.. I am completely speechless. This is amazing beyond words. I am humbled by the amount of work that went into this. Congrats again EqD on 100,000,000, and to the pony who made this, spectacular work!! :)

Arlax said...

It's awesome. No, it's EPIC. EqD rules!

Daniel G. said...

Ok, THAT was cool.

Tears of a Valedictorian said...

I have no idea how much work things take in Minecraft, but that look like it must have taken a staggering amount of time. Awesome.

richfiles said...

Was I the only one got VERY nervous and looked down, and then up before approaching that throne???

Suddenly I have a fear of bananas.

Thankfully, it was TOTALLY different!

Kyronea said...

@Tears of a Valedictorian
The video specifically said at the end that it took over two months of work. That's dedication!

Mike said...

lol, so much epic today

and because I think this counts, YAY FANIMATION

C-Puff said...

And to think I have a hard enough time building a HOUSE. ...in creative mode *fails at Minecraft*

Stars said...

That's god damn impressive

Heartmend said...

I don't think I actually made a comment about the video, previously. XD

This was AMAZING.

Zignega said...

my eyes... they are being assaulted... WITH AWESOME

Octavia said...

Haha, wow. That's awesome. Wasn't expecting that. I like the head-bopping Pinkie there with the big letters spring up. Really well done. :)

Flashback said...

Thanks for all the kind words everypony (the pony behind the animation here). I was totally not expecting this to get it's own news post, so thanks for surprising me Seth! Congrats again to everybody behind the scenes at EqD.

And yes, everything was indeed done entirely in-game with blocks...so many blocks...so, so, so many... *shudders*

Apollo Breeze said...

Can't tell if freezecam or redstone.... epic either way! Jealous if it was redstone, never could use the stuff :/

OtterMatt said...

All y'all ponies be breaking my internets!

Destroyer said...

Skylark Torch said...

@MLPPinkiefan

Ha. lololol
I am proud to say I was here before 1-mil!
Albeit, without posting a single comment...

Eaglelander said...

@Unknown WRONG LEVER! Why do we even have that lever?

Must have taken a metric crapton of work to make this, so...awesome is the least I can say. It begins at awesome.

jazman71092 said...

100 million? that's nothing. we can get to 200 mil EASY.

Skyclimber said...

Anypony else suddenly think of Wario Land 2 and 3 when they saw the rainbow numbers? Excellent animation by the way!

Pawn Heart said...

Fabulous! Good work!
