    Fluttershy in Tuxedo.  That's all you need to know.

    Have some news.


    My Little Pony Roleplaying Game Update


    Have some Copy Paste!

    Hey there! Tall Tail here. There have been some advancements on My Little Pony: Roleplaying is Magic, which we're ready to announce.

    First, an awesome graphic designer by the name "Artsy Heartsy" has joined the team, and has made us a much more polished PDF of the Season One Edition rulebook! We want to thank everyone for the great response and for bearing with our really (really) rough initial document. You can find the new PDF here, complete with download: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B5IFnI6cpZN4YzhiMjBiMDEtMGNlYi00OWRjLThlNjAtNDBkOGEzOTk3NjFj

    Second, we're confirming that we're doing a Season Two Edition! We're flank-deep in working on it now, and it is going to be bigger and better than the first edition. We've got several planned revisions, additions, expansions, and this time around, we don't have to rush to get it out; so it'll look better to boot. We're aiming to put out MLP:RiM - S2E as close to the end of season two as possible. After all, we all know how hard that pony-less summer can be.

    Third, we're looking to bring on board a dedicated artist or team of artists to do artwork for the S2E game book! Anypony who is interested should contact me at [email protected] , with samples of their pony art.

    That's all for now. Thanks so much to the community, our players, and as always, our fine filly friends at Equestria Daily! Stay tuned!

    Ponies Invade Calgary Academy Curriculum


    Over in Canada, a random brony was wandering the halls when he spotted this in the window of a door. Some 11th grade class was watching ponies for an undetermined reason.

    Why didn't we ever watch cool stuff in school?


    Pony Rockband 3 Project

    Have some copy paste!
     "I have begun a project to bring some of the great MLP fan music to Rock Band 3 (Xbox 360 only; sorry PS3 and Wii gamers). Instead of just making a track using the mixed down, final cuts of these songs, I've contacted the artists directly and have gotten several on board to partake in this project by providing me with the stems to their songs. This means that the tracks in-game will play just like any other Rock Band song (e.g. the audio will cut out if you miss a note, etc). Best of all, they are FREE! You can just download the song and play. Everything you need to know is dictated here: http://rockband.scorehero.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=29080. To help build some hype, I will reveal that I'm currently working on "Millennium Alone (Luna)" by Cyril the Wolf! I will also reveal ONE of the many artists that have given me the green light to chart one of their songs. How does ISMBOFepicly's "Gimme R D" sound? Any inquiries/requests/etc can be emailed to me at [email protected]."

    2. There needs to be a Christchurch, NZ meet up, I'm feeling left out.

    3. @Queensland meetup: wish I went *weeps*

      ReplyDelete
    4. Almost went to the Queensland meetup, decided not to at the last minute, too many assignments >.>

    5. Holy crap, I'm awake for the Nightly Round up. I guess that's my sign to go to bed now lol.

      ReplyDelete
    6. Looks like FlutterShy is Puttin' On The Ritz.
      Hurting my head trying to read the apple muffin recipe... Any idea how we can get a copy of this magazine in the US?

      ReplyDelete
    7. Is it bad that I actually understood the Physics one?

      And it wasn't just MLP in there, there were all sorts of little references and jokes :) I wish my physics lecturers were bronies...

      ReplyDelete
    8. Yay Brisbane! Sorry I couldn't be there, I forgot the rest of the herd was off doing Scout camping this weekend!

      ReplyDelete
    9. IN CALGARY. IN GRADE 11. /)^3^(\
      here's hoping i get some pony at school for some reason

      ReplyDelete
    10. Isn't that physics presentation really more of an astronomy presentation?

      Also, that looks like a presentation room at Cape Canaveral.

      ponies near the 40 min mark.

      ReplyDelete
    11. @Mike
      NOWAIT; ponies everywhere through the presentation.

      ReplyDelete
    12. Pomfcast = bestcast

      Really jackle app and derpy grooves are the most hilarious people on the planet, and i would do anything for them. ~

      ReplyDelete
    13. Huh.
      I'm seeing a lot of high school brony stuff.
      While that's all well and good, I'm eager to see more college stuff because that's where I'm at in life.

      I thought they'd be easier to find, seeing how college students tend to be more accepting than high school kids in general... unless you're a prick. :P

      Pretty cool, anyway! Glad to see there still are Canadian brony things going on. Maybe something'll come closer to home...

      ReplyDelete
    14. You tease, not including the muffin recipe.

      ReplyDelete
    15. Hm...How might one go about arranging one of these brony gatherings?

      ReplyDelete
    16. Sigh, I was literally a block and a half away from the Brisbane meet-up at work while it was going on. Stupid inability to get time off.

      ReplyDelete
    17. Lauren Faust signed Rarity?
      Dayum, man, that needs more attention to it.

      ReplyDelete
    18. It's about time they started teaching kids about proper Unicorn history in school. It's downright shameful how few can recognize a perfectly accurate Star Swirl the Bearded costume.

      ReplyDelete
    19. I already was kinda familiar with the concept of how to find exoplanets (been an astronomy geek since ever)... but now it has become even better X3
      also... those muffins look delicious!!!
      and... Y ALL THE PINKIE PIE PLUSHIES HAVE TO LOOK SO DAMN HUGGABLE?!!!!! it crushes me not being able to afford them, or Fluttershy's for that matter!!!

      ReplyDelete
    20. @Harwick I wish I was given this kind of classes back at middle or high school

      ReplyDelete
    21. sssooo... No new episode this weekend?

      ReplyDelete
    22. Ah, decided not to head the the Brisbane meetup at the last second. Oh well, hope to see all you bronies next time!

      ReplyDelete
    23. Now that I'm not going to college anymore, I miss the oportunity of using the AV department to watch movies. I'd so totally watch the MLP episodes there if I could.

      ReplyDelete
    24. Calgary Brony, go back to that classroom and ask about it. This mystery does not need to remain unsolved.

      ReplyDelete
    25. 0-o Williamsville?! I never thought I'd see my old hometown pop up on the internet, let alone in regards to ponies! Wonder if they're doing anything for the holidays.

      ReplyDelete
    26. Hey guys, just want to clarify regarding the Rock Band project I'm working on. I forgot to mention that songs definitely don't need to be "rock" or have all of the instruments for me to do them, so feel to request whatever songs you got, as long as it's pony-related in some way.

      ReplyDelete
    27. @80PercentBrony
      Ditto, though I did meet some bronies in the campus library while playing MW2. Very cool. One of them had that little program which makes random ponies leap, run, bounce, and fly across your screen. DO WANT.

      ReplyDelete
    28. @LyokoFreaks
      Awesome of you to do this, thanks so much! Out of curiosity: do you like Code Lyoko? Cause if so... this fanbase just got much cooler.

      ReplyDelete
    29. Rarity signed by lauren faust! Why do I have no money?!

      ReplyDelete
    30. OMC OMC OMC! *hyperventilates* Theres a brony meetup in an area where I live?!?!?!!! FINALLY!!!! *explodes*

      @Arothyss: Code Lyoko is way too awesome to not mix fanbases with us!

      ReplyDelete
    31. They get to watch MLP:FIM? I had to watch Jason Robards stumble around in the ruins of a nuked out America in "The Day After". We had it rough back in my day. -Q.

      ReplyDelete
    32. Roleplaying is Magic is blank when I put it on my kindle. Every page is blank but the last page (the character sheet). That makes me a sad pony.

      ReplyDelete
    33. I figure this is the best place to ask it but, is it just me or is the Site Hit Counter no longer changing and is now just static until you hit refresh?

      ReplyDelete
    34. @ThatDudeNamedBrian That's odd... Did you download it as a PDF?

      Sorry 'bout that; I'll have a play around with the exporting and compressing, see if I can't get one that works

      ReplyDelete
    35. I want to go to that school now.

      ReplyDelete
    36. I wish there was a meetup in Portland / Seattle. :(

      ReplyDelete
    37. Dammit Applejack. You don't have your hat on again.

      Why do you always not have your hat on?

      ...Also, when I was skimming through, I could have sworn that the Equestria Rave Radio Weekly Broadcast said Equestria Rave Radio Weekly Breakfast instead.

      I had to do a double take. LOL. That's almost a shame.

      They could've handed out those apple muffins there.

      ReplyDelete
    38. mmmm apple muffins, made of win, I want to make some now xD

      ReplyDelete
    39. Awesome, my Applejack Apple Muffins I made made it into the Nightly Round-up! I see some ponies want the full recipe for the muffins, and I can't blame them but I didn't want to just post it up since the magazine is still out in the UK and the next issue isn't until the 30th of November. I mean, if ponies REALLY want the full recipe I could type it out for you all. Only if it's really wanted.

      ReplyDelete
    40. are those muffins made from oatmeal????
      whatever.
      NUMMUMMUMNUMNUMNUM

      ReplyDelete
    41. Is there anyway someone can post the actual recipe online so us Americans can bake us some delicious apple muffins, too?

      ReplyDelete
    42. @LyokoFreaks Hey, wasn't "LyokoFreaks" the name of a Code Lyoko forum back about five years ago? Any relation?

      (Topic? Whazzat?) What's with cartoons in the Alberta schools? I was doing some repair work in an Edmonton school late last spring and one class was watching something animated. (No ponies, I checked.) Though that might've just been lack of work due to impending summer.

      ReplyDelete
    43. Looks like I'm going to have to get my copy of Rock Band 3 back from my sister

      ReplyDelete
    44. STIMULATING THE MIIIIIIIIIIIIIND!!!

      ReplyDelete
    45. (looks up hometown on UK map)

      If the Brony from Bigglswade is reading this, we should totally hang out.

      ReplyDelete
    46. oh. SNAP. time to get ahold of rock band 3.

      ReplyDelete
    47. Why is there never any Canadian Brony Meet-ups?

      Also, MLP; FiM RPG = AWESOME

      ReplyDelete
    48. Yay! QLD Meetup!
      That's me in the blue dress and straw hat :P

      ReplyDelete
    49. @Thaecrasis
      I'm with you on that question.
      At this point, I'm thinking we need to be more organized... and a good bit of us need to just say "Haters gonna hate" and come out of our pony closets.

      I'm down for a meetup in the Greater Toronto Area. Brampton or Mississauga would work well for me. Maybe at a Tim Horton's for lunch. Have a bite there really quick and head someplace else. Probably on a weekend.

      Should probably start asking around.

      ReplyDelete
    50. @inanityinc yes, please pony the recipe! I'm sure the "canon" muffins taste awsome, and if life to try them myself

      ReplyDelete
    51. @Thaecrasis

      Well... I know there's one in Calgary...

      Oh, that picture... That was my classroom, just sayin'!

      ReplyDelete
    52. I'm in Calgary. I'm in Grade 11.

      WHY IS THIS NOT MY CLASS?
