Anyway off to the news!
Fluttershy Rap Hits #3 For Most Favorited Video On Youtube.
Looks like ponies have gone viral once again! How many of these does it need before it hits an internet record? The Fluttercussing Rap thing from a few days ago has spread to just about every corner of the web, and continues to grow in popularity. And to think, I almost didn't post it due to the subject matter!
Pinkie Pie Describes the Events of Sonic Rainboom
This is pretty old, but just in case some of you newer people haven't been exposed to it, Pinkie Pie actually explains the "Rainbow Dash saving Rarity" scene from Sonic Rainboom during Griffon the Brushoff. Check out the video below, it demonstrates it pretty clearly.
You know, I used to think Star Wars geeks were pretty ridiculous with all of their reading between the lines and fanon... yet here I am doing it with My Little Pony.
Grimdark Pony RP Forums
Tired of that happy go lucky show centric RP other boards roll with? This one looks to defeat that, with a corrupt Princess Celestia and much darker setting. If you are interested in something like this, you can find the site here!
Diamond Dog Names Assigned to Specific Dogs
Looks like Jayson has cleared some stuff up for us. While Lauren did give us the names of all three dogs, she didn't specify which was which. So, have a list of dogs, and names!
- Rover: The leader
- Fido: The big one
- Spot: The small bulldog
Four More Official Tee Shirts from Welovefine.com
The people over at We Love Fine have released a few new officially licenced brony centric shirts. They are still really interested in hearing feedback from everyone in the community. This is the only place specifically targeting us so far with an actual FiM license, so supporting it is a good way to show Hasbro that we are relevant in the money making scheme of things. (so better merch in other words!) Their contest entries will also be going through a voting process a week from today for all of you who entered. Good luck!
Also have some links!
Spike Shirt
Twilight Sparkle Shirt
Pinkie Pie Shirt
Pinkie Pie Shirt 2
FiM Android Soundboard Updated
The guy who built the Android pony soundboard has upgraded the app to version two! Each pony got an extra five sounds, and all of the broken links have been fixed. You can find the new version here! I highly suggest just downloading it straight to your phone and using a free unzip application like Androzip to extract it. It literally takes 50 seconds (counting the megaupload download timer)
14 Minute Pony Review from Dark Side of the Moon
This guy did a full explanation/review of Friendship is Magic. He does a really good job of explaining why the show is so popular. You can find it here!
Yoyo Pro Website Does a Brony Shoutout
Apparently we are taking over yoyo websites now! Ponies have popped up over at Yoyoskills.com. Sadly it looks like they used a G1 for the main banner. Oh well... You can find the actual post here!
Urban Dictionary Throws Brony up as Word of the Day
More major websites plugging ponies! It's official, we have invaded EVERYTHING.
You can find that here!
Equestria Daily News
League of Legends Pony Hero
Bad news on the League of Legends recruit a friend thing. According to CAD comic, You don't actually help design a champion at all. Kind of pointless I guess! Oh well...
Episode Poster Contest
This poster is awesome, and I think every episode needs one, so why not turn it into a competition thing? I haven't really figured out the specifics yet, since I have a bunch of projects rolling right now, but I do want to gauge feedback. How many of you would be interested in something like this? Lots of updates to the June/July Meetups!
If you guys haven't been following the meetup post, and want to meet your fellow bronies, make sure to check it out! It updates pretty frequently. A new one will be going up on July 1st to cover July/Aug.
And that is all for the news! Off to schedule tomorrow morning!

ReplyDeleteDISTINCT LACK OF APOLOGIZING FOR TYPOES
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean you're getting your sleep? :3
I'd just like to be the first to say...PMVs don't show how AWESOME Ponies actually are...The Show, Trailers, Lip Synced videos especially such as this FlutterGuy Rap video, and the many Parodies such as the PonyCraft 2 is what makes ponies awesome in the eyes of the viewers...
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeletehaha sleep!
I figured you guys were tired of me letting you know.
The well-planned invasion of MLP has brought in some nice results.
ReplyDeleteMidnight Sparkle?
ReplyDeleteWow, I'd love seeing posters for all the episodes, so why not, a competition would be nice, not to mention productive for all those bronies fresh out of the NATM ^^
ReplyDeleteThe episodes poster contest seems like a cool idea!
ReplyDeleteThe first thing which came to my mind when looking at the show was...''Perfect Material for Parodies'' and the Lip Sync + Swearing + Other popular Stuff just shows it
ReplyDeleteWhen you combine cute ponies with Bad Ass trailers or tons of Swearing you usually get viral videos
The League of Ledgends create a hero contest isn't really creating a hero from scratch.
ReplyDeletesource:

So...Not gunna drop us a link for the shirts?
ReplyDeleteOh cool, I've been meaning to create a US account for LoL since the EU servers have been broken for months. Count me in. I just hope you can do it before Tim Buckley does, eugh.
ReplyDeleteWishful thinking, I know. But that guy just rustles my jimmies.
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteAww... That's too bad. They should rephrase their FAQ.
@SethistoThe LoL referral prize doesn't work that way. The artist of Ctl-Alt-Del had the same idea (with an Spider Shark instead of a pony) and he posted this in news recently:
ReplyDelete"Last night I got to sit down and chat with Riot's Steve Mescon (RiotPendragon) for a couple of hours.
Among other things, we talked about the 10k referral reward, and he informed me that the nature of the reward is less "Go design a champion with Riot" and more "Go work on a champion they've already designed". They have their champion concepts laid out pretty far in advance... the next 4-5 months worth of champions are already in some stage of the design process, and they'd have me working on one of the champions way down the road."
PINKIE PIE KNOWS EVERYTHING
ReplyDeleteWell, that just confirmed the fact that Pinkie can indeed cross space AND time. She's a living time machine/wormhole!
ReplyDeleteThat League of Legends thing sounds pretty cool, if we can invade and spread the pony influence then sign me up!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm really digging the poster contest, that Griffon Brush Off poster looks awesome. I'd love to try my hand at it and see what the community can come up with, I give it a yay~.
Haha League of Legends... good times...
ReplyDeleteEver Thought of doing Patapon? :D
heh Well anyways The Poster Contest seems Nice. Can't Wait to Assign one as my Wallpaper for my Favorite Episode..
Hey! Cool poster! "GRIFFON BRU F" is my favourite episode!
ReplyDeleteBut no, seriously. I'm all for a contest!
UPDATED SOUNDBOARD APP FOR ANDROID WOOOO!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWell... Pinkie Pie has always been capable of breaking the 4th wall, but breaking the fabric of time itself! Wow! That is one talented pink pony!
ReplyDeleteLuna, all night, every night.
ReplyDeleteFor some reason I feel really proud of myself for seeing the yoyoskills thing before it was posted here. Probably because it's the only time that it has happened to me though...
ReplyDeleteSomepony tell me why WeLoveFine took down "I <3 Twilight Sparkle".
ReplyDeleteI <3 Twilight Sparkle that's why, you see.
The shirts are for girls
ReplyDeleteGuess the waiting game continues.
I went to we love fine's main page.
ReplyDeleteThere's a shirt of Dr. Doom riding a unicorn.
...Fuck ponies i'm buying this!
League of Legends? Oooh...you mean DOTA yeah i've played that over-credited piece of crap which Blizzard got it slipping right through their hands in Warcraft 3 when the fans made it
ReplyDeleteMidnight Sparkle >.<? Who's That?
ReplyDeleteAlso more Lip Synced videos with ponies should be made
"Assuming we don't get banned. I don't think this is against the rules, but you never know!"
ReplyDeleteYeah, you never know... Unless you actually read the rules, but come on! Who does that?
LoL thing cancelled!
ReplyDeleteAnyway I'm going to bed. I think you guys pointed out most of the typos now right?
"A cupcake is not a hat"? Well, that sounds like a challenge to me. Now if you excuse me, I have to get a hat, 5 pounds of flour, 2 pounds of frosting and a cookbook just so I can know what I'm doing.
ReplyDelete@Sethisto
ReplyDelete...
Dark Side of the Toon
I didn't even pay attention to what pinkie was saying till I say that video.
ReplyDeleteYou think they'll do something like that in S02?
I'v seen a few of the ep posters before for boast busters. Very cool stuff.
Fluttershy video has more views than the season finale
ReplyDeleteSomeone pointed out what pinkie said in griffon the brush off and I disagree;
ReplyDeletefor one pinkie doesn't mention Rainbow saving anyone, just a dive.
Second Rainbow has practised often for the wonderbolts so there are MANY cases of stunts for pinkie to talk about.
third, in call of the cutie Rainbow also did a low flying dive during her first sonic rainboom, so possibly it's her signature move.
Why isn't the soundboard available through the Android Appstore?
ReplyDeleteThe poster contest sounds like a cool idea.
ReplyDeleteI think the point is Pinkie Pie obviously has a huge girl crush on Dashie, and that's cute, regardless of your position on Dash's "fanonical" fillyfooler status.
ReplyDeletePersonally; Dashfire > Flutterdash > Pinkiedash.
Ponies are bursting the seams of the internets! not long till world domination!
ReplyDeleteEpisode Poster Contest? COUNT ME IN!
ReplyDeleteHell yes at the poster competition! I just want to see more! I am repeating myself from a few days ago!
ReplyDeleteAs for the shirts being targeted "at us", let's say that 1/3rd of bronies are women, and 1/2 of those wear juniors sizes. (Pretty generous estimation, I imagine.) Even with those numbers, those shirts are still only made for 1/6th of all bronies. Can we see some shirts for men and adult women, please?
ReplyDeleteUrban Dictionary also put the Fluttershy Rap on their FaceBook page with a comment saying "hope you enjoyed that bronies"
ReplyDeleteOk, now if everyone who saw The Fluttercussing Rap would vote for MLP here: http://www.televisionwithoutpity.com/tubey.php ...
ReplyDeleteHokay then, either Pinkie is predicting the future, recounting a prophetic dream, or retelling 'Sonic Rainboom', since the episodes aren't necessarily in chronological order. In all cases, Twilight couldn't care less.
ReplyDeleteI am spanish, so I am inmune to English typos :3
ReplyDeleteAlso, Luna fits perfectly for the Nightly Round Up. Especially soaking wet water dripping Lune X3
I love the DSoT 3 Review, he was really funny and fair with the show. We need more people doing reviews like these. Not praising it, but giving it an objective review.
If we really took over major websites, google would have pony banners everyday. Youtube's most viewed videos are pony videos. Signboards everywhere in the world(Not ONE in Asia)a major cartoon broadcaster i.e. Cartoon Network/Disney/Nick or the hub in every country. We're not done with the admins' insane plans. I think I talked like pinkie pie.
ReplyDeleteI saw DSotM's review on The Guy with the Glasses a while ago.
ReplyDeleteHrmph, no mention of the shoutout to MLP: FIM from Linkara on ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com? He didn't actually say anything about the show but he used the theme song in a joke.
ReplyDeleteAnyone else wish they would release some shirts with out silly LOL MEME text?..Or maybe just, actual quotes from the show. I'd buy the shit outta these shirts if they didn't contain stupid buzz words like "LOL" and "EPIC".
ReplyDelete@Eric
ReplyDeleteYou have to pay for a license. I may have to make my own soundboard just to get one up there.
@Eric
ReplyDeleteJust put it on the market.
Had to buy a license and get it up.
Those shirts are all for girls... :(
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, now I'm curious. Does this mean Pinkie is even more enlightened than we thought, or does this prove that episodes aren't in chronological order?
ReplyDeleteMLP: FiM must win the poll!
ReplyDeleteIt must.
It must.
IT MUSSSTTTT.
Those shirts were exactly the ones Ponychan hated, mainly for the non-use of real pony memes, the not-so-subtle inclusion of the characters, et cetera. The people from the company claimed they were "filler shirts" for the moment, well, we can clearly see what happened to that.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking so much forward for seeing all the other t-shirt designs that is going to be submitted! XD At the moment, there isn't any pony shirt I find good enough neither for me nor the youngsters in the family I want to expose to ponies to actually wear...
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one that's annoyed at the fact that everywhere the word "brony" is defined it's defined as the older MALE fans? Whenever we talk amongst ourselves we always agree that female fans are also bronies. Yet nowhere on the internet does it seem that people are trying to make that fact known as well. Meh...just something that bugs me.
ReplyDeletethe t-shirt designs are the same, and they're still terrible
ReplyDeletei did like the dark side of the moon review.
Wet luna is wet.
ReplyDeleteihavethestrangest...

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Bronies&defid=5608834
ReplyDeleteEverybody vote this shit up! Haters are votin' it down.
The chap who made that poster is making one for each episode.
ReplyDeleteCheck his DA.
He's already got Bridle Gossip, Boast Busters, and Fall Weather Friends.
It's painfully obvious Pinkie is the best pony. Breaking time and space and we didn't even realize it.
ReplyDeleteAs I've said before: I would totally wear an appropriately-coloured shirt with a Lacoste-style tiny animal on the front. A certain toothless crocodile comes to mind immediately, of course, but any of the animal companions on the show would do. Other bronies would recognize you on the street, but it would be subtle enough so as not to be too embarassing or inappropriate in certain environments.
ReplyDeleteI can't in good conscious thumb up the Urban Dictionary brony entry. "midnight sparkle"? "friendship blast"? Ugh.
ReplyDeleteWell, Twilight Sparkle does have a daughter named Midnight in Out in the Cold/Shades of Midnight/Cries in the Autumn Wind.
ReplyDeleteNot that that's really the point.
Anybody else having trouble with the soundboard V2?
ReplyDeleteIt won't install in my Hero.
Just a quick fix even though probably many has done, but the MLP toy they used for the ganner is a G3. All ponies do have a difference from one another. A hint for now: Telling by the sparkle of the eyes.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise... I want the shirts. :O
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteUhm, female fans are not "bronies", the word BROnies itself says it. Not being sexist or anything, but the term is for male fans exclusively.
As for the girls, I don't know, how about the good-old terms "fillies" or "mares" we've been giving them, at least sounds better than "sisnies".
@Milleniummaster18
ReplyDelete"Filly" is already taken; it means young female horse. Why not have "brony" be inclusive of all genders? If a differentiation is needed, why not colt-brony and filly-brony?
Or, for that matter, why not have female fans decide for themselves how they'd like to be called? My impression is that many of them are fine with the term "bronies" applying to them, as well, regardless of the term's origins.
"check out my cutie mark" wahaha
ReplyDeleteWhy couldn't Urban Dictionary have featured "Brony"? That definition is actually well-written. >:|
ReplyDelete@Milleniummaster18
ReplyDeleteI don't know... Everytime I've seen the topic of what to call female fans come up, they just end up with brony. @OldPCBrony
What you said. I'd be all up for the female fans to decide what they want to be called. We could have a poll to see what it'll be. Mainly I just want some finality to this. There are just too many inconsistencies as of now...
@cameronstalker Wear it anyways. :L
ReplyDeleteJust in case anybody was worries about the whole "Make a LoL Pony Champion" thing:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=771923
Don't worry, a good chunk of Riot is comprised of bronies. They'll probably make one eventually even without the 10k referrals.
shirts finally cut for guys! I want the last one
ReplyDelete(HuffytheMagicDragon)
What the hell is up with those stupid T-shirts? They just decided to ignore us and go with those crappy filler designs they showed us a few weeks back? Is that even the same company? If it is, why did they ignore our request threads on here and ponychan?
ReplyDeleteI'm female and call myself a brony...
ReplyDeleteBah, the We Love Fine shirts are the super girly ones :| What about the meme shirts?
About the Fluttershy video, how is it #3? If I look here, number 3 is not it, in fact its 9500 favorites doesn't put it anywhere in these lists not even on the daily ones ... sooo what?
ReplyDeleteAbout brony being gender specific or not, I too agree that it would be nice if we could decide, maybe a poll like the others have suggested, and if we have done that we could also correct the urban dictionary entry *rollseyes*
P.S.: I side with brony not being gender specific
Need shirt with Pinkie peering straight at the camera with "What 4th wall?" under it.
ReplyDeleteMeh... this will only cover 1/6th of the brony population. We need more T-Shirts with better phrases, pronto!
ReplyDeleteI'd buy an official shirt...if they came in actual men's sizes.
ReplyDeleteShirts continue to be terrible. Guess we'll have to continue to buy superior, sadly unlicensed, fan designed shirts.
ReplyDeleteHey! Thanks for posting my boyfriend's review haha, though it's Dark Side of The Toon! XD
ReplyDelete@Milleniummaster18
ReplyDeleteI agree with the others. I much prefer brony to apply to any member of the fandom, not just one gender.
'Becoming a brony' is such a pervasive term that has a lot of meaning within the fandom. It seems wrong to exclude so many people from that when they're just as big fans as we are. 'Becoming a filly' doesn't really have any meaning to it.
I think a once-a-week poster-per-episode contest would be a great continuation/sequel to the artist training grounds. Stick a poll in each one and declare a winner at the end of each week. Should last till S2 begins too. Throw it at Phoe, she must be getting bored...
