If any bronies coming to the Portland meeting want to contact me, use pk.mlp.fim @ gmail.com without the spaces. Or just use the meetup page itself!
ReplyDeleteBuh. Why yall always gotta be so far away from me?
ReplyDelete/sad brony
Aw man, I just had to move out of Seattle and into California last year, didn't I...
ReplyDeletePoor Georgia bronies don't get no love...
ReplyDeleteforeveralone.jpeg
Aww. None for Ohio or nearby or anything?
ReplyDeleteNew Zealand bronies, are there any?
ReplyDelete@Snowfall I am working with somepony to set up the Ohio brony meetup group-- so sit tight!
ReplyDeleteIf anypony else would like to sponsor a meetup group local to themselves, email me (prpltnkr @ gmail.com) and I'll tell ya how to get 50% off on the Meetup group!
SEATTLE?!?!?! W00T!!!!!!
ReplyDelete@KantisCutes
ReplyDeleteWait, New Zealand is a real place? I thought that was a myth!
(lol, kidding)
But to be honest, I don't think there are that many out there.
We need a Florida meetup.
ReplyDeleteBig question: Will there be pony meetups during Anime Expo or Comicon?
ReplyDeleteThere seem to be a lot of bronies in Central FL. Anypony want to organise a CFL meetup? Or a South FL meetup? Or whatever! Either way, if you want to sponsor a meetup-- it costs a little money (under $50)-- let me know via email and I'll tell you how to get the cheapy deal.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteI'll talk to Blog Brony about starting a discussion thread on 'which con[s] would you like to see a pony meetup/track at'.
I can imagine that these RL brony meetups are going to be really awkward.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if there are enough bronies in Dallas/Fort Worth to make it worthwile.
ReplyDeleteWoohoo! I was literally about to start figuring out meetup stuff this weekend! You beat me to it! D:
ReplyDeleteAnyway I'd love to help out, so I'll throw ya an email~
any bronies in British Columbia?
ReplyDeleteChicago meetup?
ReplyDeleteBritain? HAHAHAHA AS IF TRAIN FARES ARE CHEAP ENOUGH FOR A ONE-OFF TRIP.
ReplyDelete;_;
This is awesome. I'll be in NYC tomorrow anyway with my mom, brother, and grandmother, so if only it was scheduled tomorrow...
ReplyDelete*Lives in North NJ about 20 minutes from NYC*
Yo, are there any in Brisbane, Australia? Figured I'd check, didn't see any humanised ponies at the con we just had.
ReplyDelete@mariomarc
ReplyDeleteMe! Although, you know, nobodymustknow.jpg
Darnit... all places in the US.
ReplyDeleteSo FAR away...
Would be great if there was something in Quebec.
But I doubt it will ever happen...
One can hope, right ?
@Purple Tinker
ReplyDeleteOh, that would be a huge favor to me, thank you.
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteHay Anon from North NJ! Go join the NYC meetup group! :)
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteyeah me too
Well I do live 45mins from NYC so maybe.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteSee: http://www.ponychan.net/chan/chat/res/36259.html#36259
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteYes, Anime Expo. Anypony else out there from LA? I know from seeing some poll somewhere that there are lots of pony fans in California...
>NYC Meet up
ReplyDeleteHmmm...might go.
I demand a Los Arabias or San Fancolto meet-up
ReplyDeleteSent you an e-mail, Tinker.
ReplyDelete@mariomarc
ReplyDeleteEyyup, I'm in BC. If you're in the Greater Vancouver, you could head to the Portland one, like I may end up going to.
To the anonymous pony from Coltifornia: If you want to sponsor a meetup group, just shoot me an email and I'll tell ya how to get the good prices.
ReplyDeleteIs there a DC chapter yet?
ReplyDeleteDallas brony here.
ReplyDeleteDoes any Dallas Bronies think we could meet up at A-Kon?
ReplyDeletehttp://a-kon.com/
If someone would like to start that email me at KaiyaJude@hotmail.com
Anyone from the Region of Quebec (Canada) ?
ReplyDeleteNo DC chapter yet. Sounds like there are several DFW bronies? Would anypony with a few dozen bucks to pony up care to email me for instructions on starting a DFW meetup group on the cheap?
ReplyDeleteSeattle? Would love to! If I could go....
ReplyDelete@Purple TinkerI will hope you if I can but I'm a very poor brony =(
ReplyDeleteWhat happened to the Otakon meet-up?
ReplyDelete@Anonymous Re: the idea of a meet-up at a con: Patience. I am talking to Blog Brony via opening a dialogue with the brony community to determine which con[s] would have the most support for a 'brony track' or at least a brony meetup.
ReplyDelete"Seatack"?
ReplyDeleteWhy not "Seaddle"?
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteBecause that would neglect Tackoma. :)
You can't have SeaTack without both of 'em.
Damn! We need to get an Atlanta meetup going! There is Seishun(sp) Con coming up.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the point of these meet ups? To see what people who share a similar with you look like?
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteThe point of these meetups is that friendship is magic.
NOT NEAR IOWA
ReplyDeleteWAAAAAAAAH *cryingface*
Anypony else in or near Iowa?
ReplyDelete@AnonymousI approve of these.
ReplyDeleteNot that I could probably make one :<
no don't count me, there's no way I'd be able to attend even if it was an hour away from my city...
ReplyDeleteOtakon is one of the biggest conventions, it'd be silly not to have a meet-up here. I would be willing to help out with absolute anything if needed, I live close to where its held.
ReplyDeleteIN AMERICA!
ReplyDeleteConfound living in Europe!
I wish we could do a Brony meet up in Europe. Preferably somewhere in Middle-Europe.
ReplyDeleteAustrian here. A Middle European group would be nice :).
ReplyDeleteIm not even in the US so meh.
ReplyDeleteBut I wish that you all have some really great times :D
Coltifornia representin'
ReplyDeleteSent an email out, here's hoping we can get an LA meetup rolling.
I hope we can get something organised in the UK, myself.
ReplyDeleteSweden never gets any love :(
ReplyDeleteOooh! I'll be in Romania for part of summer!
ReplyDeleteAgain, not sure if I could do any meet-ups though :<
@ZavCoyote
ReplyDeleteJoin us in Norway, with Desucon in Oslo :D
I AM GAME FOR Sea-Tac area, WOOT \(^ÏŽ^)/
ReplyDeleteTalk to RoyGBiv! He's the SeaTack meetup leader.
ReplyDelete@Purple Tinker i do not see a link here at Equestria Daily for RoyGBiv SeaTack meet up ??? sorry to bother you
ReplyDelete@Wing0002
ReplyDeleteHi Wing! Email me; I'll get you in touch with him. prpltnkr @ gmail dot com
San Diego!!
ReplyDeleteFYI: Its Tacoma, not Tecoma.
ReplyDelete...Not that I care much, but the people down there are creepy and I do not want to make them angry. :P
Seems like there's NO bronies/fan of MLP:FiM in Quebec ? ...or in Canada, for what it matters... ?
ReplyDeleteThis is one of those instances where I'd love to have a reason to hang out with new people but feel like this might be a bit, yea previous anon said it best, awkward.
ReplyDeleteYou guys making sure everyone is around the same age and what have you?
I do agree with a few others that there's a good chance of this turning awkward. But you never know if you don't try, so in the meantime it's an awesome idea!
ReplyDeleteI, unfortunately, can't make it to a con unless it's in walking distance. And for a ponycon, incognito xD
I have no doubt there will be awkward moments, at least at the start, but I've been to enough of these sort of gatherings to know that by the end of it all, everyone has made at least a couple new friends and things become a LOT more comfortable.
ReplyDeleteWhat Bejoty said. I've been to furry cons (two of 'em), and while there are definitely some awkward moments-- and awkward people-- in the end, good times are had.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, we're making sure only adults sign up for the groups. Any kiddies will be cheerily turned away. :)
New Yoke City would have been a better pun.
ReplyDelete@nova_25From QUEBEC HERE! Dunno if you will be seeing this but on google it is quite obvious on this site.^^;
ReplyDeleteMy boyfriend and I would attend a central Florida meet up if one was held. There are lots of places in Orlando.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteI wish I was anywhere near vancouver. there are only three bronies within a 75km vicinity of Kamloops that I know of. We all live within Kamloops itself, though. Any bronies in Kamloops that we don't know about?
@TheOutcastsofIre Have a late reply! I live in Kamloops >:D
ReplyDeleteanother Kamloops brony right here!
