Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
A seventh element of Harmony, eh? Well, I guess that assembling all the elements wasn't really all of them. Time to rewrite and retcon the rest of the series!

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
*phew* Finally finished the thread after several hours reading. Geez. You guys really picked up the pace while I was out of it, huh?
Anyway, didn't sleep the full 48 hours. Only 17. Feeling refreshed. Also decided to skip work. They can live without me for one more day.
Bronycon! Best time of my life! Met plenty of cool thread ponies as well as some of my friends from Canterlot.com- two of whom I simply bumped into in an elevator. Speaking of elevators, guess who got a brohoof from Tara Strong while riding the elevator at the hotel? That's right, me! Aww Yeah.
Other highlights include meeting other bronies by chance and simply chatting with them (everyone in this fandom just seems so friendly), including some British bronies at the airport; Seeing John De Lancie, Lauren Faust and Peter New at the restaurant (got a pic with Faust, will post later); Getting all kinds of swag (though I sadly missed out on a t-shirt I wanted and mever got a plushie); playing the MLP trivia drinking game with threadponies.
I will post pictures later when I get a chance. For now, quote posts by the bazillions.
This is pretty much why I went to Bronycon. The con was great, but only because I hung out with so many cool people there.
That's beautiful man.
Will read the fic later.
The Sonic article was very interesting.
Bahahaha! The weeping angel pic!
And it was adorable. :3
I'm a unicorn actually, it's just that most of my skills are in magic items and potions. Control Weather spells are not easily distilled into potion form.
I know this has been brought up already, but remorseful? No.
When Trixie returns she will be riding on the back of an Ursa Major that she has tamed herself. And everypony will love her.
The point of the episode is finding out that she's simply using very complex illusions spells to make herself look better, thus proving that she has learned nothing. Or something along those lines..
When did you find this out?
I swear I don't remember what her dress looked like. (must go check photos).
Both absolutely fantastic moments. XD
Spoiler
I want to sig this. Can I sig this? This is literally the best complement I have ever received. Ever.
^
Huh. See I stopped watching it after that point, because the change in the tone of the show no longer interested me. Oh, and the addition of that girl with the blond hair. I hated her so much.
I will eventually get around to giving it another go.
The VA panels most definitely.
A very nice crossover. Thanks for sharing.
Oh right, that reminds me. At the airport, I was waiting in line for check in. A guy comes up behind me and says "Oh hey, I see you went to Bronycon" and points out my Dash bag. Another British Brony! And it turns out, he was SmittyG, the creator of that picture. I mentioned that I had been at his table, debating whether or not to buy a saucy picture (decided not to, to save awkward questions from friends/family). He gave me a copy of that AJ pic for free. :D
I have so far managed to hide it from my Mother. While I'm now open about my love of ponies, I don't think my Mum needs to needs to know about my love of ponies. Especially ones in ball gags. ._.
Smitty is a pretty cool guy. I felt sorry for him though, he got robbed by a cab driver. Smitty arrived in Newark airport and the cabbie took him into downtown manhatten, then drove off before he could get his bag from the trunk.
Also, the one thing I love about bronies is that they will just come up and talk to you if you have pony merch on you. I met four British bronies while waiting at the airport, and had some great conversations with them. All of them were very different in how they viewed and interacted with the fandom too.
I felt sorry for all the other VAs. It must hurt pretty bad to get a moderate cheer/applause, only to have to watch Tara/John get the standing ovations whenever they entered. Admittedly Tara and John are pretty high-profile with their interactions with the community, but c'mon, Andrea Libman (Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy) Was there!
That's a terrible shame that you didn't enjoy yourself. Perhaps you're simply not a con person?
That's a shame dude, I was really excited about the game. Your sprites are good though.
I figured that you'd actually use those dice, instead of having them around on a table for the novelty value like I would have. Enjoy!
Yeah, this. The con would not have been anywhere near as good without you guys (and my friends from Canterlot, who I sadly did not get to see much of).
That was a fantastic moment.
Speaking of gifts, thank you again for the AJ hat! I'll have to see if I can borrow one of my Dad's cowboy hats and wear it over AJ to the next con.
Oh geez, I'm hidden in the first pic (at the back right), and I wasn't smiling in the second (far left).
I was going to point out who everyone was, then Starry pointed out that I should probably let others identify themselves.
Well I hope it works out for you.
Ouch. Yeah, that's just... yeah.
Alabenson, I hope you don't mind me saying this, but you have a couple of large pictures in there that stretch the page, even with the sidebar hidden. Would you mind removing them, or putting them in their own spoiler so that it isn't so annoying when I accidently click your spoiler box? Thanks.
Oh gods, I want one! WAAAAAANT!
*wince* I think that's one of the reasons Party of One felt rather uncomfortable to me when I first watched it. I watched it again later and realised what a brilliantly funny episode it is.
I will watch that video later. Also, in response to the above:
Rule 43 of The Internet: The more beautiful and pure a thing is - the more satisfying it is to corrupt it.
D'AAAAAAAW! Mini-Dex sems to be enjoying his Rainbow Dash outfit
Erm...
Yeah.
I have a selection of those cards. All the art is taken from the show or vectors, but there are some hidden gems there. I am looking forward to how the fandom will take the line about Lyra and Harvest sharing Bon Bons.
Right. That's Ponythread finally caught up with. Time to go play some games. I have to spread the religion of Celestia's Light to the heathens in Civilization V. Con pics will come later. Toodles.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
...
Oh dear.
Somehow, I can practically hear Lixie squealing with glee...
I did note thatTime TurnerDoctor Whooves (and the mayor's card) made reference to "timey-wimey" as so it's practically canon now...
Huzzah!

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
Bah, you and your drinking games. I had Pillowfort. And, wait, Peter New was at Outback Steakhouse? I missed that. >_<
But, yes, everything else - chatting with Bronies, seeing Pony celebrities (and getting the hug that I will never play down), and acquisition of swag - was awesome. Super awesome.
And it was adorable. :3

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
Bluh. I have the same problem with this fic as I do with so many other well-written fics. I enjoy it until something little detail, some niggling thing makes me think "this isn't Equestria" or "this isn't Twilight" and my suspension of disbelief is ruined. And it's not because the characterisation or ambience is bad, not really. It's just the feeling that the story is trying to force itself into happening in Equestria, to particular characters, instead of being a bunch of ponies doing pony stuff and pony things happening.
In this case, I can't help but feel the story is ocurring in some strange, urban fantasy universe someplace between Discworld and the Dresden Files. It's an awesome place, full of action and weirdness and humour and great characters and I'd love to read more about it. And it's a crying shame it's pretending to be Equestria.
Um... Am I making any sense here?Truth resists simplicity.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
Aw, shoot! too late to make the joke..
At least I did it in EqD comments section, where more than one face will be promptly smashed by a hoof upon reading my comment.
Also in the cards there is a tangential description of Shining Armor and Cadence "intimate" games

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
The good news is that WeLoveFine is offering a 25% off pony merchandise sale for the 4th of July, that will be open for the next three hours.
The bad news is that I've spent the past three hours trying to get their site to work. All the bronies have destroyed their servers.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
Those cards are pretty amusing though I won't consider them canon until they are referenced in show. (Paticuarlly the Element of Love which is just hilarious)
The Great and Powerful Trixie's card is pretty interesting. She has her location listed as Ponyville and unlike most antagonists does not register on the Mean meter.Spoiler: I'm a writer!Spoiler: Check out my fanfiction[URL="https://www.fanfiction.net/u/7493788/Forum-Explorer"here[/URL]

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
I'm not a traveling guy. If we had been there the whole time, rested, and I had money to spend, and I could do the one main thing I wanted to do, I might have enjoyed myself. But, even if I did, I couldn't justify spending several hours in line to meet the cast, and miss the rest of the events.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
I believe this is my 7th pony thread (out of 48...), soyou are quite correct. I'm a mere atomic superboy really...
Actually, let me check and see when my first pony-post was. It was 2 months or so after I started to watch the show, so that should give me a clue.
I have no idea, but I think my first was on Riots.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
Figured I ought to give everypony a little Bronycon blurb here. It was fantastic and so much fun! So many
sexyawesome ponies from our little corner of the internet here.
I'm just gonna say that the true highlight of my trip, even more than our dinner right next to De Lancie, more than all of the fantastic artwork and other pony merchandise, more than all of the awesome cosplayers there was the chance to hang out with friends from all over the world. I really hope to see even more Ponythreaders at Bronycon next time.
Well, I am the sexy stallion with the long, dark mane, and sexy goatee.
Which is to say: The one on the left side, second to back in the first pic, and right side front in the second.
Also, first pic, right side, second from back is my younger brother who joined us at Bronycon.Last edited by Vent Reynolt; 2012-07-05 at 02:48 AM.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
All of my hate Raz, all of my hate. Seriously, I feel like I hit a comedy of errors there, where my net went out and I was trying to do it via AT&T on my iPhone and then it wouldn't load and then it loaded and then went to a 504 gateway timeout error and now it's 28 minutes too late.
/sob
Or the site could be so borked that the promo code works anyway even though the time is passed. /happy dance
Oh well, myutter sadness is temperedgreat joy is amplified by the fact that I also read Thanqol's "Do Not Serve These Ponies" this afternoon and it was the most hilarious thing ever.
