Bronies Perth
Copy Paste:
The meetup was arranged to take place at Fremantle, though ambiguous meetup description resulted in a lot of lost fillies and colts. Eventually we managed to rally at the local Timezone arcade, where it was discovered they had access to ponies. Cue many games of skill being played to acquire said ponies. We then moved to the Esplanade park for the group shot, or rather many group shots but most involved bronies photobombing other bronies. Finally, we roamed the mean streets of Freo (which number exactly 3) and raided the Target and Myers for additional ponies. The latter was quite interesting as one of the managers was called up, and she spent a while trying to understand why a mob of 40 late-teens and mid-20's males were buying My Little Pony toys. I'm not sure if we left her more confused or less...

Indiana Meetup
What: Indiana Brony Meetup
When: Tuesday, March 13, 5-7 p.m.
Where: Love's Travel Stop, 2299 Koger St, Mooresville, IN 46158
The Love's stop has both a McDonald's and a Subway. If we have a bunch of people show up we'll meet in the McDonald's (they should have the new toys by then) but if only a couple others show up we'll meet in the Subway. I actually work in the Subway and probably will be on duty that night, so I'll be there for the whole time. The actual time is pretty flexible, so it could last as long as anyone wants.
Unfortunately I can't set up a website right now, so if anyone is interested, have them email me at this address, [email protected]
--------------------------------------------------------------

ReplyDeleteI was wondering where it was tonight.
ReplyDeletewaddya know 1st comment
ReplyDeleteWow... Early Morning Roundup today...
ReplyDeletewow no news? O.o
ReplyDeletei understand meetups around the world are important...but any chance of seeing one in michigan anytime soon?
ReplyDeleteI mean besides the updated list, the many meetups and all of that OF COURSE ^^;
ReplyDelete@Fadhil Anshar And what a comment it is ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat about a Sydney meetup- anything planned?
ReplyDeleteExcellent, now I know who to ask for an explanation as to why the song I submitted twice was rejected.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering when you were going to add the prelisteners to to the Volunteer page. I was in some of Tomb's streams when you guys did the prelistener stuff with him.I'll check out the interview in a little bit.
ReplyDeleteThere's an actual established pre-listener group? I don't ever remember there being a calling out for pre-listeners.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I wonder if all of them have access to the [email protected] email address, or if Seth does some sort of compilation and/or forwards them to a different one.
ReplyDeleteWish I ciuld be staff. Oh well, maybe next time He'll announce it.
ReplyDeleteIndiana meet up!? HELL YEA!!!
ReplyDeleteCrazyredemu's going to try to make it!
So if you're interested in helping us out and get a fancy framed Twilight drawing, too: Here's another Ebay link :)

I have only one thing to say to Interrobang Pie. g. Oh, and I love you and all.
ReplyDeleteI'm the one with SLAYER CELESTIA Tshirt in the Staffordshire meet-up :P
ReplyDeleteHmm I wonder if I should keep this a secret about how the prelisteners work?
ReplyDeleteIts actually really simple how it works.
ReplyDelete@Fadhil Anshar
ReplyDeleteCool story bro. Want a medal for your outstanding achievement?
Seriously? You feature an ebay item that is nothing more than a blind bag on a black string? There is no effort involved and there so many other ebay items worth mentioning over that. Hell I made one for myself a while back that had more to it than that.

@jimjam
ReplyDeleteJump on over to Bronies Australia and take a look.
As far as I know, though, WA seems to be the most active in terms of that sort of thing. Which seems very odd to me, but meh.
@Knuckleshy
ReplyDeleteHm?
Mooresville, IN... why u no be closer to Peru, IN?
ReplyDeleteWe need a North Central Indiana Bronies group, lol
Thanks so much Seth for posting my interview with Acoustic Brony. It was a blast, and J and E are super super nice, very approachable.
ReplyDeleteWoooo! I love the new banner <3 Rainbow Dash is best pony <333
ReplyDelete"Ban-happy Skype Group Dictator" Oh man, you have no idea how true this is...
ReplyDelete@Vedrim's Music and Remixes
ReplyDeleteWell I think Seth gets the music in the normal submit email and then they all meet up in skype and listen to the songs and later in the day it gets put up by Seth who is in the skyp calls when they vote on the songs so he knows what to post on the site. Nothing really to out there really.
We could still use a few more people for the Boston College meetup.
ReplyDeleteChimcherrychonga......so that's what they were called....
ReplyDeleteNice, they used my writeup for the Freo meet. That was good times, we had one bloke in a suit jacket and epic cloak, who would respond to queries of our presence with 'We are fans of My Little Pony, and we are GLORIOUS!'
ReplyDeleteShould mention to any Westralians, Freo Myers may be the place to look for additional poni merchandise. The manager was informed that increasing stock was guaranteed to attract sales...
Glad to know who the pre-listeners are finally!
ReplyDelete(And that's not even the full full list of pre-readers yet. c.c)
That header image makes me want to write a one shot.
ReplyDeletewhen was the perth meetup announced? i've been waiting for one for ages and then i miss it? i'm sad now
ReplyDeleteSo what exactly do the prelisteners handle? Are they focused on music exclusively, or do they also screen the videos?
ReplyDeleteWow EQD is developing quite an extensive staff.
ReplyDeleteI'm gettin' jealous, I wanna be on that team.
To Sethisto & all the mods, you do a great job. I can't imagine how many HDs you have to replace on your server just due to Derpy posts alone. Keep up the great work.
ReplyDeleteAnother Sweden meetup and it's still so far away I can't attend it. Silly four hour train ride, We are not amused.
ReplyDeleteWhat the heck is wrong with Bloggers ? (Am I the only one seeing that or ?)
ReplyDeleteSeems like it updated itself for the worst...
Now, when clicking on 'Reply', it ONLY shows and locks you on the first 200comments, instead of the comments on the page you clicked... AND doesn't even allow you to switch to 'more recent comment pages'.
Bloggers keep getting worst, instead of better, at each new updates ?
You mean MictheMicrophone got kicked off from the prelisteners?!
ReplyDeleteAwesome~~~
@Zarkanorf
ReplyDeleteWow, rude. Mic left, geez.

ReplyDeleteMore meetups I won't be able to go to.. *cry*
ReplyDeleteThat Perth meetup must have been fun! Can somebody tell me what's photobombing?
ReplyDeleteOh, and the Blogger icons got fixed.
Thanks a lot, Seth. Could have used all this pre-listener info on that paper that was due today when I asked you about it last week...
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, Seth. Could have used all this pre-listener info on that paper that was due today when I asked you about it last week...
ReplyDeleteWhat's a pre-listene -- Oh! Its for the music!
ReplyDeleteThat makes sense.
Meetup in Sweeden... Y U IN STOCKHOLM?
ReplyDelete@thehansenman hehe, thought the same. But it may be nice to go anyways considering it's for two days. I have to think about it =/
ReplyDelete@Hetairos
ReplyDeleteWhen we were getting the group organised, a few people were pre-occupied and missed the call. So when they realised what was going on, they would jump in. Often just as the pictures were being taken. Hence, photobombing, when you essentially 'interrupt' a photo being taken.
Still no St. Louis groups.
ReplyDeleteOkay, that's it - I've got to start checking out the Bronies Perth Facebook page more often. That meetup sounds like it was both awesome and hilarious.
ReplyDeleteStill rather miffed about the pre-listener thing. Around here, it's starting to become where only if you're friends with certain people, do you get a shot at anything. I would have liked to become a pre-listener myself. And I'm sure there's others who feel the same way. But of course, we weren't given the chance.
ReplyDelete@Octavia
ReplyDeleteDid you... you know... sent Sethisto a message or any for of communication to ask HIM about becoming one ?
Asking usually help.
Didn't know ''pre-listener'' existed before today ?
Well, I suppose someone can always ask if they need any help for pre-selection of anything ?
@Nova25
ReplyDeleteWhat should of been done was a note posted asking for anyone who like like to help. Most aren't going to simply email and ask to be one. That's ridiculous to put it lightly.
@SSGTPaingod
ReplyDeleteI see. Thanks!
