The Thread About Ponies, Logistics and General Weirdness (And Gilda)TV

[Azure Flare]

Good morning everypony!

 

[Akira AC]

Good morning everyone.

A Sight for Really Sore Eyes updated, I believe that was the inspiration for To Fix You(parts of it).

I don't like to quote myself, but I want to add that: "...Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie bucked forever, the end...". Apart from that, I want to add that a humanized version of that is my personal definition of heaven.

You mean the Foreman Show Starring Foreman?

Yesterday's episode was a bit different, in pony terms a summary of the episode will be the episode starting Twilight, then the producers decided to put a hotter pony so they introduced Fluttershy, to finally realize that the hottest pony is Pinkie pie, then some diagnosis to finally end with Pinkie and some shipping(I forgot to add an altruistic sick brony along those lines).

It seems that I just watch House M.D. just to see which supermodel they will "doctorize", S8E2 was a let down, but yesterday's episode makes up for it.

I was actually about to step away to watch that as well. Burning through 90 pages of Ponibooru has made my eyes glaze over. Good thing much of it so far is crappy Crazy Twilight stuff.

I saw something interesting yesterday in ponibooru, it was a text rather than a image, and it seriously needed the 70's music.

*Strong language*

New party song!(on an additional note I hate wine).

Wow, 1,000 subscribers. That is....quite the milestone.....

*waits again for others to figure out what I'm talking about*

That is nothing, "Mommy" has been on this bussiness for less time and she already has 2000 followers.


(*Goes back to nothing, I worked like a donkey last week, so most of this week is just free time*)

 

[Minty]

That is nothing, "Mommy" has been on this bussiness for less time and she already has 2000 followers.

Did you actually read what it was that got those 1,000 subs?


Also, I'm not sure of posting the latest Molestia because of just 1 frame. It's not so much what's pictured, as it is the combination of what's pictured and what it says. But it has a hilarious ending.

 

[Akira AC]

Did you actually read what it was that got those 1,000 subs?

Hmm...

We are not talking about the same "Mommy" then, and it was actually 1600 subscribers that my Mommy's got.

Probably you guys haven't seen that tumblr, which is as far as the AUP gets.(and Rainbow Dash is on it today too *nosebleeds*)

 

[Minty]

It was something on the Molestia Tumblr. Joseco made a 1,000 subscriber image for....er....I don't even want to say what it was for.

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

Ah yes...he made it for...that place.

Also, a small petition's appeared on the Allegrezza comments on EDaily to try and boost it up to six stars. I got the warm 'n' fuzzies.

/Edit/

I check EDaily...I see the numbers...oh there isn't a reaction image for my face.

IT ****ING SIX-STARRED!

 

[Wiegert]

I mean why bring a subject up if it's not even relevant to the discussion?

He saw a comment relating to the fact that memes get stale, so he jumped at the chance to bring up ponies again. I have no idea why he feels the need to stir things up after all these months. I mean, how difficult can it be to forget something as trivial as ponies being posted in the FP Thread? I hope this matter has finally been resolved once and for all because as Mint stated, it getting rather sad.

So, yeah. The chances that last weekend was the last race for the GTP Bronies that I take part in has gone from "fairly high" to "there's almost no chance that it wasn't" as I'm very likely going to have my copy of GT5 on eBay by the end of the day tomorrow, so someone else is going to have to host them if they want to do them.

Absolutely 🤬 ridiculous for PD to pull that 🤬

I kinda knew this would be the final straw, what a shame. I'm still questioning whether I should pay for DLC or just forget about it instead. I don't know who else would be interested in hosting races, but I might try it this weekend if I'm not busy.

There's also an image (quite amusing might I add) that I came across many months ago in one of the GT5 threads which I think is relevant to this whole DLC mess, but I just need to find it.



And to think, I almost forgot about ponies:

Shipping, Shipping everywhere.

Forgive my intrusion but what is this thread exactly about? What is the motivation that drives people to find so much enjoyment on such subject?
Sorry for my arrogance. I definitely have no problem with this thread, I just feel that I'm missing out on something. I just don't "get" it.

Thats.....a tricky question.

Have you watched any of the episodes? If not try a few of them.

Season 2 episode's 1, 2, and 3 are probably the best place to start, you can find them in the OP.

If you have seen an episode, and still don't get it, maybe the show's just not for you. I mean, not even the greatest shows will be enjoyable for everyone.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic has garnered quite a large following among people older that the target audience. As you'll find in the link, it actually started gaining popularity after it was mentioned on 4chan last year, and the MLP: FiM fandom pretty much grown like crazy ever since. If you want to see what all the fuss is about, then you can find the pilot episodes in the OP.

 

[Akira AC]

The Internet is loaded with weird people.. These damn donkeys are an Internet craze..

Nah is not that.



Actually the show pretty interesting in its own way, people who have seen the show can tell at first glance that its target demographic and humour appeals to a bigger(grown up) audience, putting this concept as a base for the community to play around with it by making jokes and stuff(which makes its appeal and interest increase even more as community content is constantly made around the concept).

To get the full idea of why the show is so popular, or why it is so discussed on the internet you need to see one episode, I think the first page still has some of the episodes, but some people here can recommend you an episode that provides a better glance of why the show is so popular(by showing the sort of humour that is directed to the older audience and stuff).

I think Season two, Episode 3 is a good place to start.

I check EDaily...I see the numbers...oh there isn't a reaction image for my face.

IT FREAKING SIX-STARRED!

I was wondering why it wasn't six stared already, but I will be lying if I say I didn't saw that coming, nevertheless good job[/Konata_pony_related_image_not_found.png].

 

[Minty]

Right. I'm going to go eat, throw some laundry in the washer, then sit down and read The Ballad.

If I have time before my friend comes over I'll also read some more Allegrezza.

 

[Tornado]

Holy 🤬 it did.




I made a post long ago wondering what your reaction would be if this happened, but damned if I can find it.












And this doesn't count as my post for the day. I'm just screwing around while at school.

 

[Rykon Zero]

I never really had any doubt about it. Not sure why, but I pretty much knew it was going to be popular. Great work Coffee.

Though, I think it was you who showed off your Englishness by saying "armour."

 

[Wiegert]

I think Season two, Episode 3 is a good place to start.

I had a feeling someone would suggest that episode. I think it's a good one to start off with, even though the pilot episodes are the ones that introduce the main characters properly. I say that you can choose from any of the episodes from season 1 to start off with (apart from episodes 12, 17, 18 as they focus more on the Cutie Mark Crusaders than the rest of the characters). Who knows, maybe you'll actually enjoy this show.



Oh, I forgot to congratulate Coffee about Allegrezza getting six stars. So anyways, congratulazioni

I guess now would be a good time to read Part 9.

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

All of my congratulations

Oh wow, so much love, thank you! I'd like to thank all the artists who helped me gather pics, my proof readers for helpin-

Yo Coffee, I'm really happy for you and I'mma let you finish, but Corey Williams wrote the best OctaScratch fic of all time...OF ALL TIME!

And to think, I almost forgot about ponies:

Have you read Chapter Nine or something?

 

[Tornado]

Suddenly!
Dash offers herself!

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

Oh God no, Toro, breaking my mood like that.

Also this relevant pic equates to about one-tenth of my total joy at the moment:

 

[Wiegert]

Have you read Chapter Nine or something?

Er, I have now, and can I just say that it was definitely one of the best chapters so far.


And would it be fitting for you to celebrate your story getting six stars by drinking copious amounts of pear cider? Eh, probably.

 

[unit-one]

Congratulations Coffee.

Six stars is a huge achievement!

I'm surprised, you haven't yet updated your journal.

What are you doing right now?

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

If I had some of that delicious nectar, I would be.

No alcohol in the house, and I shaved...so I like a twelve year-old again. XD

@Unit

Working through the backlog of seventy-odd comments on DA. D:

 

[Tornado]

Oh God no, Toro, breaking my mood like that.

 

[Gravekeeper]

I shall be going to bed now. You may begin your conversations once again.

I'll get right on that, then. With the 24-hour gaming thing and then hanging out in the GDocs of the chapter, I haven't been able to read through the thread with pause... I'm doing that now at work

Besides, I am not going to let it grow to 30 pages again between visits. NEVER AGAIN.

Well, I just popped in to ask you guys a question. The guys I work with, ArcadeBoxTV, spent the weekend playing for 24 hours straight for Extra-Life, a children's hospital donation drive. We've managed to raise a bit of money, and we were thinking of doing yet another gaming marathon (donation drive ends mid-November). We wanted to perhaps involve the brony community in some way when we did the repeat.

What do you think would be the best way to go about that? What games should we play, for example, or how could we bug Seth about it (I do believe CoffeeGrunt already got the ball rolling there)

Alright, I've confirmed with the gang, and the next charity marathon for Extra-Life is this weekend. One of the games I'll be playing through is Sonic 3 & Knuckles with Sonic & Tails while another brony plays the Knuckles side simultaneously. In a furry double whammy, I'll be getting in some Star Fox 64 action too (that's Lylat Wars for you PAL weirdos in Yuropp)

Well, since I'm apparently the only one who dropped everything and read Chapter 14 (seriously, guys, my memory is worse than most and I remembered everything soon enough)...

re: The Library scene:
What's that Twilight? Didn't quite catch that.

Oh. Okay.

Seriously, though, it was glorious.

I was afraid Twilight's nuanced, subtle love of books might not have gotten through to the readers -- I'm glad you noticed

*Blushes*
Gravekeeper, you did it again. The Ballad is heading into an interesting direction.

By Celestia's polygamous will

Okay, Part 14 of TBoTS was thoroughly enjoyable, especially the second half (adorkable Twilight in plentiful supply).

And when it comes to gaining Twilight’s affection, The Slightly Miffed and Jealous Trixie simply cannot compete with the Manehatten Public Library

But you forget, no one on the corner has swagger like Trixie!

A "small" teaser 4 U all!
See you soon![/FONT]

Go on...

50 gigs!

Small price to pay.

Cool...I'll just..uhh...

I'll paint my TF2 hat purple...that's like Twilight Sparkle, right?

I just finally, after nine EDaily-length chapters, got Vinyl and Octy to the makeout stage.

I think that's the tardiest ship ever written. It was also incredibly fun to write that scene on a scale I feel really bad about.

Eeeeeeewwwwww, lesbian horses!

Also, I plugged Allegreza and The Ballad of Twilight Sparkle to about 13 other Bronies earlier today while playing Forza. Yes, I was playing Forza instead of reading, but I still don't like reading when I can't give it my full attention(Did that once with TNTNE, missed some important stuff*) and I just can't do that when I have a headache. Anyway, as it turned out, one of them had already read the Ballad, and we both pretty much went on and on about why the other 12 should read it. No one else there read Allegreza, but a couple of them said they'd check it out because they liked Octavia/Vinyl. About half of them said they don't like ship fics, and another 2 just said they don't like reading fan fiction. So basically, I got both of you a few new readers.

MintBrony is best Brony. Come down to Puerto Rico, I'll buy ya a drink

Now animated.

"Ah tell yah, that boy ain't right!"

Eh, it's a bit...

bit...

I...

want it....

Brony fandom, WHY U SO PRODUCTIVE.

Seriously though, that's kinda great right there.

IT ****ING SIX-STARRED!

Congrats! Now that you've conquered EqD, what're you gonna do now?

And to think, I almost forgot about ponies:

Shipping, Shipping everywhere.

"You n' me, Octy, we'll ship ALL THE MARES!"

Forgive my intrusion but what is this thread exactly about? What is the motivation that drives people to find so much enjoyment on such subject?
Sorry for my arrogance. I definitely have no problem with this thread, I just feel that I'm missing out on something. I just don't "get" it.

It's a light-hearted, comedic cartoon that doesn't take itself seriously; it's just no-strings-attached fun to watch, and it's proved to be a breath of fresh air for many. The community tends to be very enthusiastic and active in everything they do, which makes being part of it just as fun; that's pretty much all there is to it

 

[Sniffs]

wait a minnit, coffee, which fic? I check 4-5 times a day for a good story, and just finished the Sob-o-rama one involving Scootaloo, and lecturing youngsters about grousing about sob-fics.

i had a little Virus problem thismorning, and thought I lost my starter with everything else. nope. just rendered "invisible"...now i gotta get my "exe" 's back

 

[Minty]

....Sob-o-rama one involving Scootaloo....

The Final Dream of a Filly?

If that's the one, was it good, well written, and sad, or was it just sad?

Also, about halfway through The Ballad.....Applejack is such a silly pony.
There's more I want to say but I'm going to finish, first.

"pseudoperipteral"
You and your big words and your small, difficult words.


EDIT: Good save, Twi, good save.

 

[Akira GT]

iTunes version of Lesson Zero is out... So if you guys want no Silly HUB logo its on the Season 2 archive (Torrent or Direct download 720p)

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

I'll be getting in some Star Fox 64 action too (that's Lylat Wars for you PAL weirdos in Yuropp)

Pffft, game sux brony.

Eeeeeeewwwwww, lesbian horses!

What? Where?!

Congrats! Now that you've conquered EqD, what're you gonna do now?

The tiniest part of me is slightly miffed. You see, I coulda written Allegrezza and gotten it to six-star status before you even updated Ballad, had you been two days tardier.

You saved yourself some horrific gloating from me.

wait a minnit, coffee, which fic? I check 4-5 times a day for a good story, and just finished the Sob-o-rama one involving Scootaloo, and lecturing youngsters about grousing about sob-fics.

Allegrezza, you can search it under "Star-6."

Or click ma sig. \/

 

[Minty]

"Could swagger be a special talent?"


....


....

I guess Big Mac's not the only one, now.

 

[unit-one]

Go on...

It looks much better right now. But not yet colored.

Eeeeeeewwwwww, lesbian horses!

They are... friends.





Ha, I'm so naive ^^
