Nightly Roundup #921

I'm pretty disappointed in some of you tonight.  The amount of off topic conversations has been appaling in recent posts especially when you can be off topic as you want in Roundups at the end of the day.

As a result I have this warning, I will be temp banning individuals who go off topic too many times and then permabanning them if they continue to remain off topic outside of the Roundup or outside old posts on the site some of you use as forums to talk to one another. I don't want to resort to such measures, but it really is getting out of hand.

Anyhow, I'm not feeling well and will retire soon. Have a good night and good morning! Seeya all tomorrow.

PMV: We'll Be Counting Stars / Friendship is Crazy 5

We get a lot of PMV's here on EQD, coming from just about every corner of the video making skill sphere. Do spheres have corners? They do when I don't feel like thinking of a better way to phrase that. I guess I could call it a skill square, but spheres are cooler.

Uhh anyway, what was I getting at... oh right.

A good amount of the newer ones (save the custom animation everywhere style stuff) have forgone really syncing to the music. Shifting scenes and focusing on the song really make these feel more unique in a way.  #1 does that perfectly.  So go watch it!

And after that, have something silly, just cause. Both below!

Story: Bitter Harvest

[Comedy][Shipping] "A fast-paced, hilarious rom-com that presents a surprisingly deep look at struggling with sexuality."

Author: Esle Ynopemos

Description: Golden Harvest is not jealous. Sure, her neighbor Applejack has a life of adventure and glamor, friends who are national heroes and princesses, an appallingly lucrative share in the local fruit market, and firm, toned flanks. And sure, by contrast, Golden Harvest has been stuck with her snout in the same old muddy patch of carrots pretty much every day since she earned her cutie mark, her best friend is a dentist, and her idea for a 'Carrot Juice Season' never really gained much ground for some reason. But Golden Harvest is not jealous.

Not jealous at all.

She just wishes Applejack would stop being so distracting.

And if you want to submit one, follow the template! We will not accept any that do not use it, so get to it! Quick! 

Story: Mating Customs of Species Equus parvus

[Slice of Life]

Author: D. G. D. Davidson

Description: Abstract: In his final and most personal monograph, a prolific and widely celebrated ethnologist and hippologist describes the customs of the Little Ponies (sp. Equus parvus) related to courtship and matrimony. Topics covered include sudden-onset equine infatuation (SOEI), typical courtship behaviors, the prominent role of the equine matchmaker, and the rituals of equine marriage.

But this study moves beyond a mere description of pony culture. It reflects also on the interactions between pony and human--and on what those interactions mean for the future of the human race.

Mane Cast Sings - Awoken

We have another one of those videos dedicated to splicing up the mane cast and their glorious vocals to sing a Glaze song.  Looking back, I think Awoken is probably in my top 3 for favorite pony songs of all time.  Maybe we need a discussion post about top pony songs?

Anyway, get it below!
