    I was going to use Luna in socks, but I had to use it for something else.

    On to the news!


    PinkiePie Wins Surprise 4th Place for Pony Tank

    Over at the World of Tanks website, they recently ran a tank skin contest. Originally there were only supposed to be three winners, but at the last minute they added a 4th... and it's a pony tank. I guess someone over there is a fan.

    3. I find it slightly ironic how the "nightly" roundup happens at around midday for me.

      You need some brits on your staff team.

    4. Not a very interesting news day, but since it's concerning a cartoon show about ponies, I suppose we have much more than we could ask for.
      The Writing Training Grounds sounds pretty cool though, I could get in on that.

      Ooo! A new TF2 server! I'll have to check that out tomorrow, after I make my pilgrimage to our local sites for the around the world event.

      Fluttershy is always hungry for new victims (Fluttershy always wanted to be a scattergun, not a tree. Nobody bothered to ask though.)

      Ctrl + F + Pinkie

      Hah Ringtone in Grrl Power.

      I'm up for a good challenge at the writing training grounds but I never learn or get better.

      Yeah well I don't watch much Adult Swim anymore, none of it was ever that good.

      Ugly Americans only had him saying ponies so it's not that relevant unless Rainbow Dash was in that equation.

      Cereal, I swear if you ever eat another cupcake without coloring things it will come to life in your stomach and stab you, then there will be stomach acid everywhere. The cupcake will then go for your spleen next. (Take it from a monster who's minions are baked in a oven. Note: If any fruit cakes attack you beforehand for any reason I may send you support of a living lemon meringue pie and then send a cupcake to assassinate you. It'll be a tasty death if you don't color things.)

    11. I was hoping for a writers version of Training Grounds, hence I proposed it to Phoe a few weeks ago.

      I swear, sometimes. I think of something, somepony else runs-off with it, marries it and has many many fillies and colts.

    12. Adult Swim is the only one that caught my attention

      ReplyDelete
    13. Wait, so you mean you posted "Story of the blank flanks" when I just recently played it and was trying to forget??? Get Out Of My Head, Sethisto

      ReplyDelete
    14. Lol Adult Swim and Ugly Americans

      OnClipEvent(load){
      if (ref_ponies==true){
      _root.Ugly_Americans *= 1.2
      }
      }


      Haha! Ugly Americans is 20% cooler. I'm also such a nerd.

    16. Even as a tank, You will never see Pinkie Pie coming. Kind of creepy looking tank, The eyes never stop staring at you.

      ReplyDelete
    17. Creator of those particular MtG cards here; the idea of trying out making some pony MtG cards popped into my head this Sunday... then I ran with it.

      I think I managed to "catch the idea" best with the Rainbow Dash pair, though I also very much like how the Rarity mirroring came out.
      (Subnote: I am very well aware just how ridiculously powerful some of those are... *grin*)

      No, there is no "Dark Pinkie Pie"... because everyone and their brother was probably expecting a Cupcakes reference, and I for one am so sick of them by now :P

      Sidenote to anyone planning on doing pony cards: don't post them on dA unless you do all the art by yourself. That site has rather wildly varying standards when it comes to posting stuff you don't own/didn't create 100%.

    18. I might check the TF2 server out but I might just stick on Legion of ponies LEGION OF PONIES FTW

      ReplyDelete
    20. haha Adult Swim
      I said they were joking with their bump, and I was right.

      ReplyDelete
    21. Lol, I saw that Adult Swim part on TV while watching Family Guy last night, but since I wasn't wearing my glasses, I couldn't see what exactly it said. Last night, I read "Recommended shows: ...My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Saturdays at 8 am".

      ReplyDelete
    22. Luna in socks is the best thing to happen to ponies since most of my Derpy Hooves folder. Especially her letter to /co/. She's just so cute!

      ReplyDelete
    23. Depends. what is it that you want him to color?

    25. Inb4 I talk about SotB and not the news.

      Yeah, it's a creepy game, but it's a GOOD creepy. Not creepy in a 'I really wish I wasn't doing this' way.

      ReplyDelete
    26. DARN IT I HATE YOU FOR THAT IMAGE NOW I'M NEVER GONNA GET THAT GAME OUT OF MY HEAD DARN IT

      ReplyDelete
    27. Aww' guys, I played it 3 times D:! After the first 2 times, it got kind of fun.

      ReplyDelete
    28. I tried playing that Blanks game, but I couldn't get past the haunted house with the well. I gave the one pony the jewel I found, but that didn't help me at all, because I can't find the crank for the well! *snort stomp flick tail in irritation)

      ReplyDelete
    29. Hi everyone! I have recently started writing a 5 chapter long fanfic. It's about a serial killer pony, but he is not a normal one... You will see later that everything isn't how it's supposed to be!

      I wasn't able to post it here, because the prereaders thought it was too much... LOL! I guess I scared them pretty good, huh?

      You can find my blog about it here: http://wwwatnight.blogspot.com/

    30. I was very happy to see the Adult Swim post. I squeed in my work place so now everybody knows I love ponies XD I just need a t-shirt now.

      ReplyDelete
    31. Hahaha, I laughed so hard when I saw that Ugly Americans episode on Comedy Central. I mean, I knew it wasn't related, but obviously it was the first thing my mind jumped to, too.

      ReplyDelete
    32. I would like to see some more Creepypasta fan art. (Luna Game, Story of the Blanks)

      ReplyDelete
    33. @Anonymous

      SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      ENDSPOILER

      ReplyDelete
    34. Did anyone else watch the Mega64 podcast? One of the guys thought that My Little Pony was popular because the ponies were sexualized...

      ReplyDelete
    35. Adult Swim Actually likes ponies Seth

      ReplyDelete
    36. I don't watch Adventure Time, but I'm tempted to cosplay as it just to piss off those Mega64 guys.

      ReplyDelete
    37. @Gaphiltfish luna game fanart? hell, no.
      Wait, story of the blanks is creepypasta?

      ReplyDelete
    38. Like Fluttershy a lot? You must be....

      Flutterhigh

      ReplyDelete
    39. None of the guys at Mega64 watched a single MLP episode? Someone tell them to do it. I mean... they enjoyed The Powerpuff Girls, Animaniacs, Tale Spin, Rescue Rangers...
      they have all the prerequisites to have a total blast with MLP.

      ReplyDelete
    40. I like Mega64, so I'm glad they didn't rip FiM too much...I'm suprised they haven't tried an episode yet though. They should get on that.

      ReplyDelete
    41. Anyone notice that Adult Swim's list contains only shows after the 9pm watershed with the exception of My Little Pony?

      ReplyDelete
    42. I have Mega64 subbed, but hadn't watched the latest podcast episode. Decided to check it out now and skipped to around the 27 minute mark. First thing I heard:

      "The ponies are animated in a sexualized way."

      Went back a minute or so and found the beginning of the pony conversation...

      "It's kind of, they're kinda that way that furry cartoons are like, have like their sexual nature to them, I think the ponies are drawn kinda like that."

      Fucking lol'd.

      But I guess it's understandable for someone who hasn't watched a single episode yet. I mean, at least 50% of all bronies watched the show to make fun of it before they realized how good it was, and several people called me a faggot who faps to horses before I got them to watch an episode. :P

      I think they'd like the show if they gave it a chance. They did like some other stuff that some would consider "girly" or "childish".

      ReplyDelete
    43. Christ, those MTG cards are only a LITTLE overpowered...

      ReplyDelete
    44. THOSE MEGA64 BASTARDS DISLIKE ADVENTURE TIME.

      ReplyDelete
    45. @Joe

      Finally! Someone else who was upset about that. When Finn sang in his autotune voice for the first time, I was hooked.

      ReplyDelete
    46. I tried that world of tanks game a long time ago. At first it seemed like a lot of fun, then all my shots just bounced off the enemy and I couldn't help getting frustrated at the game from that point. =/

      ReplyDelete
    47. Wait... where can you find Luna Game?[/stupid]

      ReplyDelete
    48. Rainbow won't look like a tank. That's Pinkie's job.

      ReplyDelete
    49. Haha, I remember when Twayne said that on Ugly Americans, I was laughing my ass off lol.

      ReplyDelete
    50. THATS MORE LIKE IT ADULT SWIM!!!!!
