• Nightly Roundup #460

    Cadance is in charge of the Roundup tonight while Shining pulls another late shift. His duties as Captain never end do they? Guess we can stay up late with her as we read the news, eh?

    Check it all out after the break.


    Story Test Workshop - A Story Analysis


    Blame it on the scientist in me, but I always love these sorts of analysis clips on different aspects of the show.

    Realistic Depiction of a Pony in Our World


    I'm sure we'd all freak out a little bit if this happened.

    MLP: Sins of Friendship Looking for Artists

    We've featured a few episodes of this series in the Roundup before, but now are looking for vector artists to help out in creating backgrounds, objects, and characters as they move into a new story setting. If anyone is interested, take a look at the info below:

    If anyone is interested in taking on a position they can contact me via my channel, by my email (joshualees00@hotmail.co.uk), by Skype (Jonah McLease or mrmctwiggy), or on my Deviant Art account (Mr_Mc_Twiggy)


    By Celestia, Another One!


    And yes, that is a perfect depiction of what happens when only one of us is in charge of the inbox.

    To the Moon Pony Reference


    Ponies and videogames go together like bread and butter it seems. In a clever little shout out to ponies, the game To the Moon has placed a carefully hidden Luna in the game. Now I love To the Moon, but to realize now that it has ponies in it as well? So awesome! Seriously, check the game out on Steam if you haven't already. You won't regret it! Thanks to Reddit for spotting this!

    Bluescreen Bronies here, now that Draco is back from Canterlot Gardens we can actually have a decent episode... if we can drag him away from his DS... We have an interview with Mane6 to be released sometime this week due to audio difficulties, but it will be released one way or another this week. Kind of a light content week so far, maybe we'd get more work done if Borderlands 2 wasn't so addicting!

    Bronies of Northern Ireland Meetup

    broNIes of Northern Ireland meet up (October 6th 2012)

    This is the third brony meet up in Northern Ireland and it was a massive success.  A total of 25 bronies packed into a small cafe to feast on a giant Pinkie Pie themed cupcake.   After devouring the cupcake we progressed to the Forbidden Planet store and relieved them of all their pony merchandise.  Following raiding the store we settled down to show off our newly purchased merchandise while listening to pony music.
    At the end of the day, we then parted ways knowing that we were not alone and that friendship really is magic.
    Thank you to everyone who could attend and made this the best meet yet!

    Tulsa Bronies Fair Meetup


    Copy Paste:

    Hey-there to all Oklahoman Brownies! We had an awesome time at the Tulsa state fair on saterday the 29th. We ate terrible fried food, played a ton of games, road a lot of rides, and we all won nifty fedoras from the “Guess Your Weight” guy. Also a big shout out to Cody Beeson, sorry you had to leave early dude, but it was great having you there.  Despite it being cold and rainy, all of us could not have had a better time. Hope to see everybrony again at our next meet up.
     Love and Tolerance!

    Apple Cider Meetup


    Copy Paste:

    About 25 bronies in the Portland area got together and put our cider skills to the test to make 30+ gallons of cider in just a few hours. We used an old wooden cider press and bucked hundreds of apples to use. The result was really sweet and delectable cider. I don't think regular apple juice will ever cut it again after this. Then after picking apples and making apple cider we played apples to apples. A fitting way to end the day. We managed to get a few photos up here http://imgur.com/a/Bn2By/   For those wanting to know about our future meetups check out our meetup group at http://www.meetup.com/Bronies-Portland/

    SoCal BroniesWassup everypony?! It's that time of the month again...that time of the month where the Bronies of Santa Clarita invade the local mall and spread friendship, love, and tolerance. We will be hosting our next Monthly Mall Meetup at the Westfield Valencia Town Center on Saturday October 13, 2012 and it will start at 3:30 P.M. We are currently brainstorming things to do so it'll be a little more organized, so if you'd like to add to the suggestions that would be awesome. :-3 Regardless of what we do, it'll be a great way to meet other bronies in an environment with a variety of things to do.

    For more information, please check out the event page on Facebook.


    There is also an event page on SoCal Bronies.
    Hope to see new and familiar faces alike! /)^3^(\
