Notch, the creator of the ridiculously popular Minecraft, is apparently into ponies. There were a few occurrences in the past that pointed in the exact opposite direction, where he straight up refused to have anything to do with it... but I guess times change? That initial stigma is there for pretty much everyone I think.
(I guess he might be trolling, I play the game, but I've never actually followed any of it's news)
Check out his twitter here!
For those that aren't into minecraft, have some Fluttershy. Who doesn't like Fluttershy?

I thin he's lying.
ReplyDeleteThough it would be awesome otherwise.
Trolling
ReplyDeleteAdam wins yet more internets!
ReplyDeleteHe could be joking but whatever floats your boat, I guess.
ReplyDeletetrolololol
ReplyDeleteI don't play minecraft, but this is pretty awesome.
ReplyDeleteDat Fluttershy, d'aww.
ReplyDelete@Jedigeek93
ReplyDeleteI don't like Fluttershy either.
I LOVE Fluttershy. In a non-creepy way.
Yeah, it's not easy to tell if he's serious or not... If I had to guess, I'd say he's kidding/lying.
ReplyDelete... But it would be awesome if it was true.
notch into ponies??
ReplyDeletewow now thta's cool
hmm he might just say it to parasprite, but still =D
ReplyDeleteMEWHAHAHAHAHAHA!
ReplyDeleteALL will join the herd!
RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!
i think he might be joking he does that sometimes
ReplyDeleteHmm, the news is interesting but I would rather have Fluttershy :D
ReplyDelete:D
ReplyDeletenothing more to say
and we are 100% sure he is not just being sarcastic? Remember, it's Notch.
ReplyDeleteI never trust whatever a creator says on Twitter anyway. I'm just naturally suspicious of anything on that website for some reason.
ReplyDeleteWhat was Applejack doing playing TF2 all by her lonesome.
ReplyDeleteSad thing, if he really is, people's gonna start with the hate. If he's just trollin' we will just tolerate and love the shit out of him... The world needs less hate and more ponies :c
ReplyDeleteYou just can't tell with Notch, but I'll be a fan of his regardless.
ReplyDelete(And how awesome would it be if he was?)
Sethisto, you play the game? I thought you personally didn't care for Minecraft. I do wish you'd stop by our server and say hi to your adoring fans (brohoof.com).
ReplyDeleteyay, Fluttershy.
ReplyDeleteI'm a fan of both Minecraft AND Fluttershy! It's a win-win!
ReplyDeleteWell, when I first watched MLP I thought that it was retarded....but then they love of the herd got me to watch again and I did and loved it!
ReplyDeleteMaybe the same happened to Notch. haha
Not sure if serious...
ReplyDeleteI'm willing to bet he was just humouring the guy in question.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if he is serious, but I really hope he is! Maybe he can add some MLP related Easter Eggs to the game! That could be amazing!
ReplyDeleteNot sure if Paraspriting or just awesome.
ReplyDeleteAfter the week Notch has had, I'm leaning towards trolling.
ReplyDeleteConsidering he just got back from Minecon, I predict trolling.
ReplyDeleteAnd upon the saying of those few words many fangasms were to be heard.
ReplyDelete"Who doesn't like Fluttershy?"
ReplyDeleteMarylin Manson, and me, among other people.
Lol, Minecraft.
Either I'm dumb, him posting this was a long time ago, or he deleted this post from twitter because I can't find this on twitter anywhere.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me... Must get myself some Minecraft...
ReplyDeleteI don't like fluttershy that much
ReplyDeleteTaking into account recent events, Notch may be talking out of his ass again.
ReplyDeleteSaw this a while ago, it seems more like hes trolling than being serious
ReplyDelete>For those of you who aren't into Minecraft
ReplyDeleteThere are people who don't like Minecraft?
>Who doesn't like Fluttershy?
Nopony, that's who!
Forget my previous post. I'm just an idiot. XD
ReplyDeleteYou don't like fluttershy?
ReplyDeleteWell everyone has their flaws I suppose.
I bet he's trolling, however I'd like the contrary to be true.
ReplyDeletenah I'm jk
ReplyDeleteWell I guess the fandom *PUTS ON SUNGLASSES* has been taken up a Notch. YEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!
ReplyDeleteIT'S A TRAP!
ReplyDeleteNotch is probably doing it just to get approval from The Herd.
ReplyDeleteHmm, it's hard to tell if he was trolling or not, the lack of punctuation leaves his statement open to interpretation.
ReplyDeleteBut it would be awesome if he actually meant it!
Notch joined The Herd? That's interes-
ReplyDelete*Scroll down*
Fluttershyyyyyyyyyyy.
he is probably just trying to make us happy ^^
ReplyDeleteI say "who gives a crap"... no need to harass the guy, who cares if he is a brony or not?
ReplyDeleteI mean if he is a brony, that's awesome! If he's not then oh well... I just hope hordes of brony minecraft fans don't harass him even more.
YES!
ReplyDeleteYEESS!
[/M. Bison]
Dude's always goofin' around and being a funny guy on his twitter account. He's probably getting another laugh out of people from both sides getting worked up over this!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, seems totally legit.
ReplyDeleteTrolling is saying something or doing something with the intention to anger, upset, or annoy someone...
ReplyDeleteSince the posts asked him to say that he is a Brony, this can not be trolling....
You guys have got to stop using the term trolling for everything someone says.
Or in other words....
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2y8Sx4B2Sk
I don't like Fluttershy, honestly.
ReplyDeleteNo, I'm not trolling, she's genuinely annoying to me.
He might be joking. I don't really know but from what I . . .
ReplyDeleteOh look it's Fluttershy!!!!!!!
YAYYYYY!!!!!!!!!
@Vopogon
ReplyDeleteLove and tolerance can only go so far. You're beyond redemption. You will be exterminated.
Well, I'm not pointing in anyones direction, but I'd call the police to visit the people who admit not liking Fluttershy. There are probably a lot of childrens bodies to be found there.
ReplyDelete*drooling* Eggghhhhhhh.... So much awesome.
ReplyDelete*Fluttershy picture* *Everyone ignores main focus of article*
ReplyDeleteBEWARE BRONIES.
ReplyDeleteNotch is actually in the sh*t: he released a game without the features he promised, and now thousand of people want refund.on his twitter you can see how he was fighting with yogcast and gained a lot of enemies in this week.He is probably just an Hipster that needs to be approved from others, wishing to gain more players ( now that he is losing them) to support him.MLP fanbase is gold in the internet, we should not give our gold to greedy people.i am not saying he is surely a greedy cynical bastard, but he is *probably* just trying to use us as a shield from the hate is receiving.
you *NOW* "are" a brony Notch? i am glad you enjoy the show, but NO, i won't adore you, i won't buy your game, i won't try to solve your problem; bronies don't need the approval of "celebrities". the entire internet will laugh at us if we mindlessy adore him now, and they will hate us even more than they do now.
love.tolerance.and wisdom.
The other day when he was interviewed on Desert Bus for Hope he said that he hadn't gotten around to watching it. Either he watched it and liked it in a day's time or he's trolling us.
ReplyDeleteCould it be? Notch a brony? Ãœnd y u peeple no likeminecraft?
ReplyDeleteHe's trolling.
ReplyDeleteProbably.
Dammit seth, I lost... thanks
ReplyDeleteYay Fluttershy!
ReplyDelete@soph93 "he released a game without the features he promised, and now thousand of people want refund"
ReplyDelete[Citation needed]
After the Yogscast debacle I was under the impression he'd be doing his best NOT to make large slices of the internet despise him. So if he's trying to troll the most powerful fandom on the web he's dumber then I thought.
ReplyDeleteEven if he is trolling we've still got him on record for saying this, he'll never here the end of it.
@soph93
ReplyDeleteBut yogscast was the d*** here not Notch.
What a bunch of stuck up jerks.
Also NOTCH was a HUGE DONATOR in the Desert Bus charity that had gone on this past week...
ReplyDelete*looks at image*
ReplyDeleteEh, just a throwaway comment meant for humour.
*looks at comments*
Dayum...
*promptly abandons thread*
He's probably being sarcastic and a non-native English speaker at the same time. But hey, if he's actually turned that's pretty cool. I don't think it'll buy him any slack on the business front, like soph93 seems to be saying, but you gotta L&T anyhow.
ReplyDeleteToo bad Notch is a jerk who backstabbed the YOGS. That whole debacle made me uninstall minecraft.
ReplyDeletelol.. YOGS are the jerks.... Where have you been?
ReplyDeleteNot sure if trolling...
ReplyDeleteHmm... don't play Minecraft myself... but boy do my roomies play it a fair bit. lol I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he did have some interest in the Brony Community. I also wouldn't be surprised if he's trolling either. So who knows. :P
ReplyDeleteSkip to 5:30
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qqqE0Yr9VA
Notch has not watched My Little Pony
okay, the whole yogscast debacle. okay, i'm not sure of the situation, brb, gonna go read about it
ReplyDelete*10 minutes later*
okay, yogscast is the dicks, not notch, yogscast basicly told a kid..a child, ya know, A MINOR to fuck off more or less, in candid terms, i guess a kid wanted them to sign somthing notch already did (makes sense, dual signatures) they crossed out his name and put "F U"
yogscast fault.
I remember that creepypasta stuff about 'Herobrine', the ghost of freakin Minecraft, first he clearly stated it wasn't real, and then he said something that basically implied the opposite (I don't remember well). It just looks like Notch like to troll everyone.
ReplyDeleteBut one of the random title screens in Minecraft said bronies were cool. So maybe he likes ponies, but as far as I know he likes to confuse people.
All I know is what Video Games Awesome said about it.... And I trust them more than anyone. Especially since they were there.
ReplyDelete*Sssssss*
ReplyDelete@firestonex
ReplyDeleteWell then maybe you should check out the Yogscast Twitter feed and hear the whole story before you go make unfounded assumptions. Besides, Notch admitted he was a fault and apologized to them.
*trolling;
ReplyDeleteI've done some research, and this page on the Notch-Yogscast thing seems to be the most complete in terms of links.
ReplyDeleteA proportion of the other other pages I've found tend to go on about how Yogscast is really popular, a huge proportion of the Minecraft fanbase love 'em, stuff like that. Yet I've never heard of them before yesterday.
Still, that whole topic is not something I'm gonna touch with a 20-foot pole.
Notch may or may not like ponies. That was the point of this post.
*abandons thread for real this time*
I spent my entire week on minecraft and ponies.
ReplyDeleteAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>reads up on Yogscast v. Notch
ReplyDelete>"Why won't anybody be rational and reasonable?!"
I'm glad bronies don't have this issue... Let's always keep it that way.
wut, I came here for Fluttershy.
ReplyDeleteHe is trolling. Notch supported Team Ashton in Desert Bus with his $10000 donation instead of Team Kroze (Kroze being the brony moderator who sang Winter Wrap-Up, the Pony Pokey, At the Gala, Art of the Dress, and the theme song on stream with Matt.)
ReplyDeleteNotch is just being a good sport and giving the bronies their share of the fun.
Never played minecraft, but I read up a bit on the whole cause célèbre this week, sounds like fatigue and hearsay on both sides.
ReplyDeleteHe's totally lying. I could never see Notch being a brony, he's too... Notch-y.
ReplyDeleteAnd by that I mean I think he's an absolute dick. Every other blog post he makes is laced with the words "I am a dick but I did something cool so feed me money."
I do respect him for creating Minecraft, I love the game. But I do not care for Markus at all.
ahh..... he's just looking for attention, I can see that from him.
ReplyDeleteI HATE Fluttershy.
ReplyDeleteNotch is a brony.
Both statements are examples of trolling.
@cobracookies
ReplyDeleteUninstall? Don't you mean delete the .minecraft folder and minecraft.exe, seeing as there was no installation process to begin with?
i can understand why he doesn't want ponies in minecraft... i mean... they're just not minecraft material
ReplyDeleteI've met him, you know... He was a pretty cool guy before the apathy of having money got to him.
ReplyDeleteAlso, this. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2941534/Jaycraft/2011-11-19_20.56.37.png
old news. my friend talked to notch ages ago an said he was a brony
ReplyDeleteNotch a brony
ReplyDeleteyay
Trolling?
ReplyDeleteThe end is trollish
I REALLY hope this is true
yay
I'm gonna be a non-cynic by celebrating, marking another milestone in brony world domination, and declaring an early New Year's promise to start playing Minecraft before next year. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteinb4 everypony taking something Notch has said far too seriously.
ReplyDeleteOh. Wait.
Uh, inb4 the totally unrelated Yogscast thing being mentioned.
Oh, crap.
... well, uh... I got nothing.
I want to believe it, but I'm gonna call troll on this one
ReplyDeleteEh, who really knows, maybe he is or maybe he isn't
ReplyDeleteI actually know notch. he is sorta a friend of mine. we haven't met in person, but we skype chat and stuff like that.
ReplyDeleteand YES he IS a brony. we talk about ponies all the time. he is all so a troll. (Only on minecraft)
I'll give seth proof later.
@nathandash
ReplyDeleteAwsome dude! If you can get proof later would like to see it.
As for Minecraft, tell him to make more breeds of dragons.
For everyone who thinks that Yogscast is a dicks:
ReplyDeletehttp://twitter.com/#!/notch/status/139722432251568129
At first I was like :DDDDD
ReplyDeletethen I read the comments and realised the high probability that Notch is just trolling again
D:
If the person did not add the parenthesis note he would have said nothing so I'm about 80% sure he is just trolling.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Has anypony ever tried Applejack sauce? It's tasty in my opinion...
@nathandash
ReplyDeleteWell, talk about a double-edged sword. That could end horrifically, especially so few people on the internet outside of the brony community understand the "love and tolerate" motto we've accepted as a standard. Official evidence on a blog of this caliber could really backfire...
*fangasm*
ReplyDeleteSince the topics already out, I personally think Notch was worse than Yogscast.
ReplyDeleteWe have no idea Notch's claims are true, so I got nothing on that. But it doesn't matter because there's something that makes that whole thing irrelevent.
Notch tweeted all that shit. He was pretty much whining and called Yogscast "total dicks". No evidence to back his claims.
But more importantly, there's this whole thing called love and tolerance. As long as Notch and Yogscast are sorry for whatever the hell they both did, I'm willing to completely forget all of this. And I kinda think we all should be.
-----
Oh ya, Notch saying he's a brony. Uhh... All I see is haters on his comments. If you think Notch had some ulterior motive for that tweet,
"How... unfortunate. :("
"and he just fuckin beats off right there"
"uninstalled minecraft, requesting refund"
"go fuck yourself in the ass"
Guh...
"That initial stigma is there for pretty much everyone I think."
ReplyDeleteFalse. It wasn't for me.
1- Notch has never watchd MLP, and likely has no intention to unless we get Jeb to first.
ReplyDelete2- If Notch did watch MLP, he would love Fluttershy. I will personally send him a plushie if I get proof of the above.
3- Fluttershy is best pony.
I totally mentioned something about this in last nights nightly roundup! If you watch the second part of the Minecon panel (on youtube) around 12:33 one of the guys mentions MLP. Although, it was not Notch (apparently it was a guy by the name of Lewis Brindley as told to me by Gadvac) I believe that it will not take long for him to join the herd if he is surrounded by fellow bronies. :)
ReplyDeleteFluttershy hates Notch.
ReplyDeleteNotch is best pony.
(Just doing a little more trolling, to keep my hoof in.)
This just proves: resistance is futile
ReplyDeletehe just said on hiw twitter that he was lying.
ReplyDeletei want to see the face of everyone who fangasmed in the last 23 hours.
love and tolerance.
for Notch i personally only tolerate.barely.
I've just jizzed myself.
ReplyDeleteHis latest tweets only make it better, I know he said he lied, but he said he's watched some of the clips and he likes the clips, he's never watched the show.
This, combined with how successful the Humble Brony Bundle has gotten, combined with the new episode, has made my day.
@Scootachicken
ReplyDeleteIf Notch likes the clips, then it is Phase 1, only a matter of time...
