Nightly Roundup #183

by Sethisto

Skydiving edition! I really liked this new episode, and I'm not a huge fan of Spike. Studio B does it again!

We added XyroTR as an author here! His only duty is to post the 1080p streams on new episode days (Since Cereal and I tend to be either at school or dead tired), but we really appreciate the dedication he has to bring everyone episodes. He spent a whole boatload of money on recording equipment for it.

Anyway, have some news!

Columbia, MO Meetup

Copy Paste:
To all bronies in the Columbia, MO area: The MU brony group will be getting together this Monday, December the 12th at the Flat Branch Pub and Brewing restaurant. A final time has not been decided but it will be in the evening, most likely around 10:00PM Central time to account for finals for students.
We are not yet an official student organization registered with the MU ORG committee but we are working on that. This is just a get-together of sorts so everyone who is in the Facebook group (and those who are not but are interested) can meet each other, drink beer (if they are of age), be merry, and talk ponies.

Shows what I get for staying up that late to finish watching The Matrix: Revolutions. Probably should've wasted my time with a better movie, in retrospect.

RP group was interesting but...Unicorns only? Bah! Earth ponies and Pegasi need love too.

Still, I hope everyone who joins up has fun. Though I'd recommend changing the colour layout, that's kind of harsh on the eyes.

Still no roundups in Ottawa XP

That's cool. Xyro does work hard to bring everyone some new ponies just after each new episode Congrats to him. *is waiting for her promotion as well :D* Lmao.

The Everfree Radio clip of Scootaloo... she says she's not a chicken, but the title of the clip says otherwise. ;) Dat pun. Gave me a giggle.

Those are some of the most fancy paper bag lunch bags around. Remember how it might have been uncool to bring your lunch to school in a plain old brown paper bag? Well, that is all in the past now! lol

The 1 Second Film project confuses me slightly. But hey, charity is good. :) "The Dead Ponies Society" Hey, that's one of my favorite movies as well! :D

Awww, winter wear for pony toys. That's adorable. <3

Good to see My Little Musical really gaining more steam now. Nice little 30 second preview clip there. Judging by what we've seen so far, I bet this is going to be a fun musical piece. :)

It's interesting how Everfree radio records these interview a head of time. While it does make them much cleaner and smoother, it does lack some of the charm of a real time interview, perhaps even with view submitted questions....

Okay, so I managed to figure out some more of the answers for the crossword puzzle. Here is what I came up with (still missing 1 and 3 down)

Across:
15. Friendship (Finish - End, Vessel - Ship, "After last day for magic" - Friday or Fri. Rearrage to Fri end ship)

Down:
2. Rarity (Uncommon unicorn - Uncommon or rare, rare unicorn = Rarity)

I can't wait for Monday! :D

@CascadeHope

Also, Rarity is an anagram of "I tarry".

As for the other two:

1. Pegasus (Pin = Peg, Indefinite article "A", "S"mall, American "US")

3. Lunar (L = 50 in roman numerals, peace-keepers = United Nations = UN, at end -> indefinite article "A", "R"ight)

@Kadreal

Most interviews are recorded ahead of time. I know of many podcasts that announce their guests ahead of time, so people have a chance to send in their questions.

I can't recall offhand how Everfree prefers to do the listeners' questions thing.

We do indeed record them before they are announced. Since any number of things can happen to cancel an interview, we chose not to announce them before they are fully recorded. This way we won't disappoint people who were expecting an interview only to have it cancelled at the last minute.

I will never understand why people loved the new episode so much.
It's just chasing and yelling combined with an extremly awkward lovestory (especially the scene where Rarity and Spike fell was very awkward).
But then again, Lesson Zero was similar and highly rated too.
Am I really the only one who enjoys the calm episodes with subtle writing, good characterdisplay and clever humor?
