    Northampton, MA Brony Meetup

    Another meetup is seeking more! Have some copypaste

    Hey everypony, we're having the first Western Mass. / Southern VT
    brony meetup ever! It'll be in Northampton, MA in the park area next
    to the Academy of Music at 2PM this Saturday August 27. Rainbow
    Sprinkles will be bringing coloring books and cupcakes and I will be
    bringing apple-related drinks and snacks as well as as many pony
    buttons that I can make between now and then. The plan is to hang out
    at the park, sing some songs and stuff, have dramatic readings of
    fanfics and generally infuse Northampton with even more love and
    tolerance and rainbows that it already has and then figure out if we
    want to retire to a brony's local dwelling, get dinner/coffee, or
    whatever. Also it'll be a good time to see if we can get a bigger
    meetup happening at one of the Five Colleges or something during the
    school year!

    E-mail sparklepeep@gmail.com if you have questions. If you live
    in/near Western MA and want to post some posters up between now and
    then I've got a PDF up at

    Another Pony Forum!

    Extralives.org Charity Marathon Part 2!

    Another marathon is going on over at Extralives.org starting on Friday August 26th.  Check out the information about it below!
    This fundraising marathon will examine the seedy underbelly of the video game industry-- bootlegged and knockoff games. From poorly translated copies of Pokemon to Final Fantasy 7 on the Famicom to an entire set of games revolving around The Bible, we'll be playing a wide variety of unique games, some of which you may never have seen before. We'll be starting the broadcast at noon, Eastern Time, on Friday, August 26th. We're expecting to play for about 72 hours nonstop and we hope you drop in!

    We'll be raising money for Free the Children (http://www.freethechildren.com/), a charity that provides humanitarian aid to kids in developing nations. We're aiming to raise at least $8,500 to fund the construction of a schoolhouse in an underdeveloped country. If less than this is raised, the charity will use the donations for toward famine-aid relief and irrigation projects in East Africa. The region is facing their worst drought in sixty years, resulting in a famine which has left tens of thousands dead. Donations go directly to the charity and those over $10 are tax deductible. Every $5 you donate enters you once in our raffle for an ExtraLives.org T-shirt!

    30,000,000 Contest submissions are going up tomorrow! 

    That's about it!
    I honestly have no clue what day each pony is supposed to be assigned.  Have some Applejack in pajamas, drawn by the same person that drew Twilight drinking soda, which Cereal posted earlier, which was distracting.

    2. I don't care what anybody says, it sure as hell does not feel like anything close to Winter Wrap-Up right now.

      If you'll excuse me, I must go find another jacket.

    3. I wonder if that AJ is drawn by the same person who drew Brony cola Twi pic

      ReplyDelete
    4. Just a heads up - the Luna and Rainbow Dash ebay links are muddled up :D

      ReplyDelete
    5. You mixed the Luna an Dash painting Ebay links.

    8. Part of me wants to write a story using the random generator once I have more free time and I'm done with my other story. If they ever fleshed it out more, that'd be a pretty fun contest or something like the oc generator one earlier.

      ReplyDelete
    9. Luna painting is actually a Rainbow Dash one.

      Its funny, 8 comments and 3 ppl already pointed that out :D

      ReplyDelete
    10. Eh, not a sherbert fan myself. So I wouldn't know if it's truly healthier. But that cake sure looks good. And watch out Twi, here comes a tractor!

      Another Brony podcast? Hot damn, a new one every day. Can't keep up with all them at this point.

      Wow, I am impressed with the ModNation logo there too. Kinda clever and definitely awesome.

      The random pony background story generator is interesting.

      Hmm, the Equestria Rainbooms banner has many ponies in it, but it's clearly lacking that touch of musical class on it. Besides Lyra. :>

      And inafter lots of people correcting Seth's usual mistakes when he's tired. ;)

    11. Not bad, not bad at all.

      The Does Not Play Well with Others comic strip was hilarious. It reminded me of a guy who posted on PonyChan and had made a fanfic starring an alicorn OC who could shape shift, become invisible, was faster than Dashie and was friends with the entire mane cast.

    12. 30,000,000 contest submissons? My goodness, that is a LOT of submissions!

      ReplyDelete
    13. Wow, I'm actually still awake for this one. Good job, Seth.

    14. Taking a break from debugging to say hi, and it's 3:01 here.

    15. "This leanly-built female pony is an earth pony who is bold, slow-witted, and peace-loving. Her coat is cream-colored. She has a mane that is green, and it reminds you of a fluttering flag. Her eyes are white. Her mark is a lotus."

      Neat. The random generator might be fun to play with. o.0 one sounded awful that I got by fiddling with it though.

      ReplyDelete
    16. Let's see if I've got this...
      Nightly Roundup is at 6:30 am for me, give or take six hours.
      I'll just be glad that there is one.

    17. Rarity as the Spitter mod, Not as good as the old Randy Savage as the Tank mod but as good effort. Art of the Dress playing when to spit on was really funny.

      ReplyDelete
    18. OHMYGOSH. That's my cake! *Squee*

      ReplyDelete
    19. Am I the only one who wants someone to make Rarity's Voice replace Rochelle? I mean, yeah Spitter cool, but Rarity dosen't seem to fit with the spitter, and ya know I hate Rochelle so... could anyone get working on that?

      ReplyDelete
    20. We need more pics of ponies with bed hair.

      ReplyDelete
    21. Thanks for putting up the Dutch bronies Facebook page ^^

      ReplyDelete
    22. The best thing about that DNPWWO comic is, Hasbro also owns D&D. Some kind of crossover (whether it's an official pony supplement, or beholders in FiM) is not impossible. (It is not very likely, though.)

      ReplyDelete
    23. "This lean female pony is a pegasus who is unbalanced, incoherent, and unreliable. Her coat is violet. She has a wavy mane. Her eyes are olive-green. Her mark is a yin-yang." HAHA she's a contradiction XD

      ReplyDelete
    24. You got the Rarity Spitter, but you missed the Pinkie Pie Jockey.

      ReplyDelete
    25. @Molestia

      nah.avi
      It was included back in Roundup 63

      Unrelated: That guy in the first comic has all the traits that I hate about OC character creators. Seriously, if your character is that amazing, WOULDN'T WE HAVE HEARD OF HER!? (Note: I know that was the point)

      ReplyDelete
    26. Actually, the Seventh Sanctum pony generator has been around for quite awhile (That is, since April). In fact, it's what led me to ponies in the first place!

      The other generators on that site are pretty neat too. Some of them are absolutely hilarious.

      ReplyDelete
    27. i really like the fanfic statistics thing at the end Sethisto, i vote you make that a standard thing on the nightly round ups ^_^

      ReplyDelete
    28. LololOLOLol!!!

      Corrupted Lucca + Luna made my day!!!
      Lucca riding her dark steed, Nightmare Moon, is about as epic as they go!
      I for one, welcome my new overlords of flame and midnight!

      P.S. Chrono Trigger is a GREAT game, one of the greatest even, and if you've not played it, for shame... Get yourself a DS and the recent release of the game and enjoy a true epic. If you're lucky, you may have is on SNES.

    29. i am to coward to join the dutch bronies, still I support them silently...

      ReplyDelete
    30. A meet up in Northhampton eh? That's only 45 minutes from me, maybe if I'm not working another extra shift I can make it.

      ReplyDelete
    31. Saw the new wikipedia page for MLP FiM it has REALLY improved!

    32. @Wraithwood

      I agree, but I must have missed something, why aren't the story update links included anymore?
