So Tennis Luna has become a "thing" now?
ReplyDeleteI'm liking this idea.
A nightly round up at 4 in the morning? It's almost as if you want me to stop the sun just so you can make it before sunrise.
ReplyDeleteI second the vote for Tennis Luna.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Denver Brony Meet-up? All of my rage.
It's 9am I haven't slept yet, I've lost control of my life
ReplyDeleteYou know, one of these days... err, nights, Seth isn't going to receive any pony cakes in his inbox. And much panicking will be had.
ReplyDeleteSeth, as for BF3 platoons there is also:

and

And polish Winter Wrap Up sounds quite great. :)
Jumping around in tennis is a bit pointless for ponies with magic though, you're holding it with magic. All it does is tire you out faster.
ReplyDeleteNow thats a nice cake, as I always say. I would feel bad eating that. Its so well done.
The keychains look nice.
@phluorescent Has it? First time i seen it. Despite not being a fan of the sport, i'm liking it too. That outfit is cute on her.
ReplyDeletegoodnight every-pony its 3 AM Here, and works in 5.... I need a life
ReplyDeleteI find it crazy how everyone seems to think Luna has darkened...
ReplyDeleteTHE ENTIRE EPISODE HAPPENED AT NIGHT!!!
She's darker because the last time we saw her, it was during the DAY.
This episode took place 100% during the night.

ReplyDeleteRight after watching Prince of Tennis, Tennis Luna.
ReplyDeleteSHE KNOWS.
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDelete@richfiles The other ponies didn't look any darker at night than they do during the day, so I'd say it really doesn't have much of an effect here.
ReplyDeleteLuna is darker now.
If Seth doesn't recieve any cakes to post....
ReplyDeleteHE'LL MAKE A CAKE TO POST!
@Discord
ReplyDeleteJESUS he must be stopped!
I wasn't allowed to join the Shadowbolts platoon for some reason. :(
ReplyDeleteJoined the Ponyville platoon though. Hooah!
Tennis Luna is magnificent...I didn't even like the socks this much. Although, sweaters are adorable, too.
ReplyDelete@richfiles
ReplyDeleteinb4 yfw >implying you realize that Luna was returned to her de-powered foal-like state by the Elements and has been slowly regaining her powers and physical maturity since then. Coat = Darker. Get over it.
@Killsteal_Wolf
ReplyDeleteHahaha, amazing.
That cake!
Kinda early Nightly Roundup again tonight, nice.
ReplyDeleteAnd tennis Luna rocks. She could have socks I s'pose. :)
That Polish Winter Wrap Up... I tell ya, it doesn't matter what language it's in, I can totally rock out to that song in pretty much any of them. <3 Applejack's part made me giggle. Just sounded a little silly. :P
That cake is indeed very smooth... and so very... square! I love it! It's like acouple boxes on top of eachother. Is that hollow? If not, that is a lot of cake. Ponies make some of the best cakes. True story.
I like the Everfree Radio promo video. Crazy Twilight makes anything cooler. Not to mention crazier! *twitch twitch*
Another pony activity book, cool. I probably won't ever buy one, but I'm sure there are some out there are must have at least one thing of everything pony-related. :P
And the new pony calendars are rolling with what now? lol Sentence cut off, Seth? :P
No matter what language you play Winter Wrap Up in i still hear it in English in my mind.
ReplyDeleteoww, looks like that BF3 Shadowbolts platoon is for Xbox, I'm going to make one for PC then.
ReplyDeleteGrr...the Battlefield wont let me log in
ReplyDelete@Xort
ReplyDeleteI screen capped Episode 2 from season 1, during the party. took a clip of Twilight and a clip of Luna, and place the samples beside Twilight and Luna from Season 2 Episode 4. I used the Alley scene.
The scales are off between reds greens and blues, even between the same ponies, due to overall lighting and gamma differences between the clips, but Twilight is DEFINITELY DARKER in this episode.
Due to the blue shift of the night time coloration, blues maintain their brightness the best, ranging between 50-97% brightness retention. Reds drop the most, ranging from near elimination to 47% brightness retention. Greens are mid range.
Luna is only SLIGHTLY darker, and since her color is naturally darker than Twilight's, she does blend into the overall blue of the darkness better.
My measurements disprove the claim that "The other ponies didn't look any darker at night than they do during the day". That statement is false, by actual measurement.
Luna's darkness is negligible, and more easily attributed to her natural dark coloration combined with the low lighting levels. If anything, artistic license may have been taken to slightly darken her in the night setting, but I have no reason, as of yet, to believe that she would appear any darker than she did in S1-E2 if she were animated in a daylight scene.
Twilight at the very least IS MEASURABLY DARKER in "Luna Eclipsed", placing weight to my estimation that Luna is also darker in this episode due to the night time lighting.
@Celestia
ReplyDeleteT'is all in the name of 'exercise', dear sister. Thou hast more of it whenst thou are moving than if thy hooves stay still.
And tis fun!

ReplyDeleteComparison of Daytime vs Nighttime color levels.
This shows a clear darkening of colors applied to both Twilight and Luna vs their appearance during the day. Differences in the scaling are easily attributed to differences between the video clips, or due to the natural color differences between Luna's already darker coat (vs Twilight).
I still have no reason to think Luna would appear any darker under daylight than she did prior. Artistic license is certainly allowed in an episode designed to depict her as spooky in most scenes. Blues are ALSO the most dominant color under the reduced brightness. I would imagine she should blend in very well with the darkness.
"...found this at a book place"
ReplyDeleteI'm starting to wonder if y'all do this on purpose. What is the point of telling us about new finds if you never tell us where to find them? This is very cruel to us obsessive-compulsive merchandise hunters, you know.
@richfiles Wow, it's so important that you prove some guy over the internet wrong that you go and do "measurements?" In any case, your claim that blue retains brightness best means that even in the dark she shouldn't look that much different if she was really still the same color. She does, so by your own "measurements" that means she must really be darker. Unless I horribly misinterpreted something, of course.
ReplyDeleteOf course, all that's quite pointless considering this argument is about the coloration of a cartoon pony in non-canon fanart in the first place.
@Kayriel
ReplyDeletemfw I disproved xort's statement "The other ponies didn't look any darker at night than they do during the day, so I'd say it really doesn't have much of an effect here."
Also, I still feel that her coat color is not changed, or if it is darker, is only slightly so. The MAJORITY of the darkness is the result of:
A: Night time lighting.
B: Artistic / Aesthetic license.
Regarding B, I only say that is the case, cause the lighting need to put Luna into a state that evokes a level of spookiness.
I still see no reason to assume her actual coat color is changed.
"These guys sure do update a lot! You should just subscribe!"
ReplyDeleteXD Well, we ARE working on a schedule.
@Luna
ReplyDeleteBut of course, it is unnecessary though.
and of course its fun i'd much rather play tennis than listen to stuck up nobles rant about why they shouldn't pay tax.
As an administrator on that wiki, let me just briefly add that of course anybody can edit there. For instance, right now there is a very short page about Nyx. Anybody who has read Creeping Darkness or Past Sins can add to the page, and/or create new articles for those stories. They don't have to be the author.
ReplyDeleteArmbands =/- socks...
ReplyDelete@Tulip Claymore
You do realize how bad of an idea that is right?
If you're not using a user-only edit system that requires admin approval there may be some severe vandalism.
Honestly I'd be surprised if the wikia hadn't been vandalized from time to time...
Though as it it is a fan work wiki it will get more vandalism than just the sort that fanbois (as in the rabid fanboy type) and the haters dish out.
ReplyDeleteHow many times do I have to tell you, Seth, the cake is smooth because it's covered in fondant.
ReplyDeleteDat cake!
ReplyDelete@Xort
ReplyDeleteDude, why you so flankhurt?
Anyway, this was pretty much an average nightly roundup for me when... Wait... What's this? STARCRAFT 2 PONIES?!
THIS MUST BE MADE!
I wish I played online games where I could join groups and stuff... :(
Polish Winter Wrap Up is great :D
ReplyDeleteplz put up the arabic version of Winter Wrap Up when its released (I hope they don't suck at it like wut they did on Bridle Gossip [they didn't change appletini's voice])
oh the same pathetic artist! how dare he made Luna a plot! That is bloody why I hate these filthy artists!
ReplyDelete@Rohit Eligeti
ReplyDeleteNot sure if trolling....
=.=
Pony MAGNETS?
ReplyDeleteLet the trollscience begin...
@Celestia
ReplyDeleteWhile tis true we need it naught, but tis why we have such a slender form over thou, sister.
Found the bolts, definately interested in that, thinking I'm going to apply to join.
ReplyDelete@Luna
ReplyDelete*Ahem* Well I never...
Should I assume that, since no one else is mentioning it, the complete lack of any banner at all is something only I am experiencing? I don't see any notice about a new banner going up, so I'm thinking that my iPad must have eaten the old one.
ReplyDeleteHoly crap Discord!!!!! I thought we banished you with the rainbow dohicky thingie? How'd you get loise to turn that guys clouds to cotton candy, HUH!?!?
ReplyDelete@Mattwo
ReplyDeleteIt's a wiki. They get vandalised on occasion; it's my job to deal with that when it happens. But there are people who only want to contribute anonymously, and I respect that. There have already been some great additions by unregistered users.
Oh Polish language, you so silly.
ReplyDeleteNow THAT is how you cake. Super job on the icing, and bonus points for not using fondant.
ReplyDeleteHey, the polish winter wrap-up is way better than the previous polish dubbings! But still... the lyrics are poor in places, the pacing is uneven and I' gonna cry over AJ's and Rarity's voices.
ReplyDeleteThough I adore the quickness and accent in the
line 'choć miło że była wśród nas'(in place of 'let's finish our holiday cheer')
What inspired the Luna playing tennis thing? I'm liking it!
ReplyDeleteTennis Luna ....*head shake* I just....I don't even.....
ReplyDeleteHow do Polish people sing? It seems too awkward a language. Singers weren't bad, though I can't speak for the lyrics, as I don't understand them. I kind of like Polish singing Rainbow Dash. Sounded like there were all of four people in that chorus, though.
Those magnets are awesome. Also, Fluttershy plushy too cute.

ReplyDeleteMegasweet, Slugbox and JJ were all drawing and streaming at the same time. Megasweet got a request to draw me playing tennis. Slugbox was watching and decided to, as well. Then JJ felt as though he were being left out.
Oh geez, i saw the brony meetup thing at onicon, and i squeed. Really loud. i had to cup my hand over my mouth to avoid yelling and waking up my father. Just thought to share that with you all.
ReplyDeleteThe Paper Play Set is on clearance at Targets. Mine had them for $5.88 each, one for Pinkie Pie and one for Twilight Sparkle.
ReplyDeleteFFS, I just moved from Colorado too..
ReplyDeleteIt's not so much the tennis ponies we want to see as much as it is the dripping pony sweat. We need more sweaty ponies in the next drawfriend, okay?
ReplyDeleteAaah! Keychains! Yes! Hope I can find some Applejack related ones...
ReplyDeleteMy family is from Poland, so watching the Polish Winter Wrap-Up wasn't optional -- It was mandatory.
ReplyDeleteNice and short Roundup, awesome cake as always and that Polish Winter Wrap up was interesting xD
ReplyDelete@G.Buddell...but that IS fondant.
ReplyDeleteSeconded on Target as a source for magnetic playsets. I got a Twilight SParkle and a Pinkie Pie one there as well, though it may have been slightly different than this one. I'm not 100% certain, as i removed the outer packaging, and stored all the magnet inside the box.
ReplyDeleteHOW DOTH THINE MAGNETS OPERATE? WE DOTH NOT KNOWEST!!!

@Lemonite Where did you get that impression? I was baffled that he cares so much about a ridiculous online argument that he went out and did "measurements" to prove he was right. No butthurt here.
ReplyDelete@ the Tennis Luna pic, she's controlling the racquet with magic...so why is she running around and sweating like that? o_O
ReplyDeleteo.o When I saw the cake image and it said "Happy 16th Birthday, Sean" or something like that and my name is Sean but it's not my birthday and I'm not sixteen but still! That's weird! Or does it say Sean? I dunno.
ReplyDelete@SIaanme We should actually send Seth an actual physical cake. Maybe through the internet.
ReplyDeleteIn regards to why Luna's running around rather than just magicking the racquet all over the court, I'm guessing there's a rule of pony tennis limiting how far away unicorns can hold the racquet from themselves, so as not to have an unfair advantage over pegasi and earth ponies.
ReplyDeleteProbably a similar limitation on pegasi in regards to flying, for similar reasons.
But, that's just a theory. *shrug*
