Ponies in Brazilian Newspaper
EDIT: Translation added thanks to Federico
A design full of colorful ponies and cute songs. Something for girls right? WRONG. The animation "My little pony: friendship is magic" featured in the discovery kids channel, makes a success among kids and teenagers.
The fanaticism is such that they call themselves "bronies". "Brony is a guy older than ten years that watches the cartoon", tells Felipe Martins, 16, creator of a site dedicated to the subject. A "bronie" site exists already in english: www.equestriadaily.com. It reached almost 80 million views! The cartoon tells the story of Equestria, a world where ponies can talk and sing. Among the characters, there are unicorns and even a pegasus that leaves rainbows in its way.Most bronies started watching the show on the internet. It was with the premiere, last 21st, that the show became popular among the newest members."My little pony: friendship is magic" features on Mondays at 8, on Discovery Kids.

Dutch Meetup
--------------------------------------------------------------Hello everypony!
We’ve done it again! After two earlier successful two-monthly meets back in October and August we’ve successfully finished our third meet in Utrecht, The Netherlands! The amount of people that came doubled from 26 to a whopping 59 since the second meet!
We rented a place in Utrecht to keep our hoofsies warm and had a lot of fun in the few hours we were together. Card- and boardgames were played, pony-related music was played, new people were met, interesting conversations were held and at 4 pm our time we all watched the live stream episode together! This resulted in 59 people bursting into singing the intro tune together and a lot of cheering was heard several times during the episode (and boo-ing when commercials came along). All in all, it was great fun!
We hope to see all of you again on February 4th to help us wrap up winter and with a bit of luck, the amount of bronies in the Netherlands will continue to grow! Please visit www.bronies.nl for future updates about our next events and help us to make the community even bigger!

ReplyDeleteFiM charity event? WE NEED TO GET ON THIS NOW.
ReplyDeleteOk, now they're fucking with us on the Doctor Who stuff and I am so much more than okay with it.
ReplyDeleteIn the Houston brony meetup picture, i'm willing to bet my bits that the guy with the pink wig is Cereal......
ReplyDeleteIn the video of the Finnvasion, WTF IS WITH THAT CENSOR GREEN HOODIE PONY WTF?!?!
I was going to read this roundup but then I took an arrow in the knee...
ReplyDeleteMore consoles need carry handles!
ReplyDeleteAnd to everyone else coming to that London meet up, you have NO excuse to not bring a properly coiffured pony with you! Get on it, lads!
I'm not even a Dr. Who fan and I still got a kick out of that lol.
ReplyDeleteDutch meetup was SO AWESOME!! :D
ReplyDeleteApparently I'm not the only one who frequently refreshes this site lmao. Still, good round-up. I need sleep now.
ReplyDeleteAll joking aside, in all seriousness......
ReplyDeleteI love that Scootaloo piano piece, somepony give me the sheet music!!
Doctor whooves has some explaining to do with those doctor who pics >.>
I could probably play that Winter Wrap Up song- woah, if I did a duet with my brother, maybe
OMG. The Doctorrrrr...! O.O
ReplyDeleteJoy... rising... maximum happiness achieved!
Two of my favourite things together! I die happy now.
Loved the Doctors! Doctor spotting is gonna be my new hobby. And, Seth, ending this Roundup with "Then I took an arrow to the knee" has elevated you to alicorn tier in my book.
ReplyDeleteOoohh, hairstyle guides!
Man I love this site. I spent like half an hour listening to MandoPony's EqD Song today. It was lovely. =D
Confound these roundups.
ReplyDeleteThey drive me to sleep during school.
The Dr Whooves is getting to the point I have to believe the FiM team *IS* purposefully adding them. It's becoming too "coincidental" that all the ponies with the hourglass match up to the various incarnations of The Doctor... (since the official explanation is "all background ponies get a random cutie mark")
ReplyDeleteNot that I'm complaining, of course :D
I attend OU and I heard a couple people mention the article today.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of/seen any meetups in the L.A. area...
ReplyDeletesadness.
Sorry- a note for those of you entering the wooden pony giveaway: it's mikeyturner@derpymail.org instead of .com.
ReplyDeleteSeth keeps getting these things in the mail........why do you bronies know where he lives?
ReplyDelete"96 years ago, they broke off from the Russian Empire"
ReplyDeleteOops. My bad. Should have been 94 years.
My only excuse of feeding this misinformation for you (readers and EqD staff both) is that I sent the submission at 4 am local time :)
@DJ Pirtu
ReplyDeleteOh well
Dr Who's pony incarnations are both many and awesome as is scootaloo's silent theater thing.
ReplyDeleteThe rest of the news is good, and Fluttershy gamecube? wow, I think I still have mine somewhere.
Now that he's done the story updates perhaps Seth can finally have his break.
That's a lot of news (read in Matthew Broderick's voice).
ReplyDeleteOh boy, this is a pretty long one indeed.
ReplyDeleteThe signed Trixie posters are kinda cute, awww.
More pony toy hair guides, very nice. Those can be extremely helpful and a valuable piece of info for anyone that likes to really stylize their hair in just the right ways. :>
For the "Dr Whoof" ponies, well, of course as we know cutie marks are recycled and reused a lot. I find the 3rd and 5th Doctors to perhaps be a little more of a stretch. But I did notice the model people are basing the 11th Doctor around. And I know many others also noticed it right away. They're pretty good match-ups and certainly look kinda like them.
Yay, piano-playing Scootaloo. Looks like she's been practicing a lot. And maybe rolling around in toxic waste...
Ooh, wooden pony sculptures. That's new and unique. Think I may have to enter the drawing for one of those.
Well-written and nicely organized article with that college newspaper.
Don't know what the Brazilian article says, but hey, ponies! lol
The Winter Wrapup piano piece is very lovely. That'd be pretty hard to solo I'd think.
Not really a Gamecube fan myself. A Ponystation fan. C wut I did thar? Doh ho ho. But Fluttercube is nice. :3
Yet another survey trying to figure out which pony among the main cast is the most popular? Eh. Many people switch here and there. And opinions and views change over time. So the most popular likely will too. :P
The Little Big Planet ponies strike me as cute... yet a little creepy-looking. lol Sorry. Also, Dash looked kinda like a squirrel to me in the image at first. xD
Yelling at Cats? Dat alias. Haha. Song called Shipping with Care... d'oh! Well, I hope he gets some great entries for his album art contest.
I got an early release of The Vinyl Scratch Tapes, Episode 2 but I still haven't listened to it. I want to, but I just don't think I can bring myself to unfortunately. QQ
That Finnish PMV video was certainly... interesting. No idea what they were saying through out it. But I think that only made it more entertaining for me to watch. :P
Of course for the charity event, everyone is saying all kids should have ponies. Can't say I disagree. Donate some ponies to those kids. <3
So much news! Must... stop... reading...
ReplyDeleteMust... sleep...
FFFF- DAT Gamecube. All my money.
ReplyDeleteThe Vinyl Scratch tapes is awesome. I should look for the first episode later.
ReplyDeleteAlso, do you think Studio B did those Doctor look-a-likes on purpose?
@Bombedrumbum
ReplyDeleteI gave up anonymity when I decided to make a website.
@Octavia
ReplyDeleteI loved the NGC, but you're right, mate; the PonyStation (I c wut u did thar) was the thing to own back then. Bit of a shame there isn't any backwards compatibility, really.
Oh and that's a pretty comprehensive summary of your thoughts of the round up. XD
@Bombedrumbum
ReplyDeleteXD
I read this w/ zecora's voice, then I read it w/ chocolate rain playing in the background.
good round-up, alot of interesting stuff! and that gamecube!!! im so doing this to my ps2! (but twilight sparkle style)!!!
ReplyDeleteWoooops!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Guadalajara meetup is this saturday at 2pm to 6pm at the Expo Guadalajara entrance!
Sorry >.<
Everyone, when you pledge to the Hasbro charity thing, make sure to put Equestria Daily for how you found it. Spread the good word about bronies :D
ReplyDeleteOh hey our Poster finally made it to you!
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy it seth ;)
I think Seth is intentionally messing up the word 'Philippines'
ReplyDelete@DeeperMadness
ReplyDeleteI make these posts after each Nightly Roundup. This one just happens to be a bit larger than most. :P
>The Vinyl Scratch Tapes: Master Recording - Episode 2, The Spitfire Interview
ReplyDeleteYESYESYESYESYESYES.avi
I used to be an arrow like you. Then I took a commenter to the knee.
ReplyDeleteLMFAO THE QUOTE
ReplyDeleteLondon meetup? But I'm too lazy to leave my computer in this weather!
ReplyDeleteI want that newspaper
ReplyDeleteThat Doctor Whooves with a bowtie reminded me more of Patrick Troughton
ReplyDeleteThe Netherlands? We're getting close people :D Belgium next?
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked the dined Trixie poster. =D
ReplyDeleteSigned, not dined...
ReplyDeleteDumb phone auto-correct
About time one of the Dutch meet-ups got mentioned ^^ So... A by bronies for bronies documentary... Could be interesting.
ReplyDelete@Octavia
ReplyDelete"I got an early release of The Vinyl Scratch Tapes, Episode 2 but I still haven't listened to it. I want to, but I just don't think I can bring myself to unfortunately. QQ"
Really? You hate how I play you that much? But I LOVE you! It's why I wanted to play you in the first place. *sadface*
CONFOUND THESE ROUNDUPS
ReplyDeleteTHEY DRIVE ME TO SLEEP THROUGH MY ALARM
Nah not really I missed my bus due to other reasons.
But now I can pony my pony more. I also realized I didn't legitimately comment on anything in the roundup last comment, so here goes;
-dat Trixie poster
-Bookmarking these hair fixes, for one day I shall acquire ponies.
-I never watched Doctor Who, but this fandom will eventually drive me to do so. Also punch me if I use the word "drive" again.
-Too lazy to comment on everything else, but dat Fluttershy Gamecube is something else. Turns out all my favorite games are on that console. Personally I prefer Brawl, with the hacking and whatnot, but I think I had more fun when I first got Melee than when I got Brawl.
-Someone should host a Brony Meetup somewhere around Tampa Bay. In about a year from now. When I may or may not get a car.
@RyuuKiba
ReplyDeleteDude, this saturday? as in, December 10th?
@Traxus
ReplyDeleteWe have a meetup group, and a gathering on Saturday the 10th. :)
meetup.com/Bronies-LA/
Today, being the 6th day of an even-number month is an Element of Harmony Day. It's also the sixth Harmony Day of the year and the most important: today we celebrate the Element of Friendship/Magic, also known as Twilight Sparkle.
ReplyDeleteIt's rainy, it's a Tuesday and my friends all live 50 miles away. What to do?
I SO Hope I'm gonna have the 17th off for the London meet...
ReplyDeletePhilibine? WHAT IS THIS? This is the third time you mispelt the name of that country. really, seth, if you're gonna derp, add a derpy pic.
ReplyDeleteGmecube is best pony- Err, I mean system.
ReplyDeleteGood roundup!
@Bombedrumbum
ReplyDeleteIn the video of the Finnvasion, WTF IS WITH THAT CENSOR GREEN HOODIE PONY WTF?!?!
That'd be a ponified version of the character Finland from the webcomic Scandinavia and the World.
http://scandanaviaandtheworld.wikia.com/wiki/Finland
Ooh, nice styling guide, should be really useful if I ever decide to unpack my Fluttershy.
ReplyDeleteWait what happened at Canterlot? I'm a regular poster on there and I don't know what's going on.
ReplyDeleteAlas poor Dutch Brony Meetup, this time you were ruined for me.
ReplyDeleteSucks when you spend a buckton of cash and an entire day to get there and then have to go after an hour >_>
actually the brazilian news is just giving the information about us, the commentaries bellow the article is full people saying that ponies are gays and stuff... but i wasn't waiting for something different, bronies down here are rarely found =(
ReplyDeleteThat piano piece is written for at least four hands, though I think it would actually sound better with only one person playing the majority of it. It just sounds too muddled with all those notes. Really, once you get over 24 notes in polyphony, it just sounds bad.
ReplyDeleteEvery time the show goes to Canterlot, we get another Time Lord pony. By the time we get to the third season, we might have all of them for a massive crossover. I really want to see a Christopher Eccleston pony and a Tom Baker pony together.
ReplyDeleteUhh, so that Scootaloo YTPMV made it here? I don't know if that's better or worse than it going into an appropriate YTPMV post. Oh well

ReplyDelete@DeeperMadness Pinkie Pie hair? Challenge...declined.
ReplyDeleteSeth, y u no liek The Philippines? :p
ReplyDelete@frith Internets are magic.
ReplyDeletedoes Ponimusiikkivideohelvetti mean, "fucking pony music video"? =)
ReplyDeleteWait, there was a Dutch meet up? Dang!
ReplyDelete@8bitbleepbleep Just keep an eye on bronies.nl and maybe we'll see you at the next meet :)
ReplyDelete@Hellkipz
ReplyDeleteThat's right! December 10th :3
At first I was happy seeing Bronies acknowledged in a Brazilian magazine, but it had almost no info at all, also, Felipe said Bronies are guys older than 10 who watch the show, when it really is a gender-neutral term with no defined age restriction.
ReplyDeleteFree Rainbow Dash dressed as Minerva posters for the meetup in Guadalahoofra?
ReplyDeleteME GUSTA
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteIf that 11th Doctor Pony shows up again and is wearing a fez I will flip the f*** out.
ReplyDeleteIn a good way, obviously. :D
Brawl was a huge step up from Melee.
ReplyDeleteI still prefer the N64 one over both, though.
London meet-up... Hell, I live the other end of England! I only know one other English brony damn it!
ReplyDeleteSo many doctors, but no scarf! Where's my #4?
ReplyDeleteAnother Vinyl Scratch Tapes recording? Wasn't expecting that, but it's nice to be surprised.
Loved the PMV Hell, despite not speaking a word of Finnish. But I've never been one to let a silly little thing like foreign languages get in the way of fun. Also, He-Man sounds infinitely more awesome in Finnish.
@RyuuKiba
ReplyDeleteDo I have to bu a ticket to get inside the expo or are we just going to hang outside the expo?
That's pretty awesome that they sent each of yall a poster. I bought one from PurpleTinker and love it. I like how it's a reference to an old Houdini poster also.
ReplyDeleteSo many Doctors. I've only seen a few of the episodes, but I like the 10th Doctor.
Scootaloo playing the piano is just adorable. Somepony needs to combine that with Twilight dancing.
Really liking the piano suite. Although, it does seem humanly impossible for one person to play xD
Ah, the gamecube. Haven't played one in years.
Sorry about the arrow there Seth...maybe I should stop firing them up in the air. I never know where they end up. Like here and here xD
@Dantes_Grill
ReplyDeletePony music video hell
And it was awesome btw, great that it was posted here so I didn't miss it. Happy independece day everypony!
@Sigil
ReplyDeleteI think we'll be hanging out inside, so I guess we will have to buy a ticket...
If you can't because of money or something, we have one free ticket one of us won at a radio show...
man i really wish i can be at one of those dutch brony meetings :) looks awesome
ReplyDeleteGo Oklahoma!
ReplyDelete@FamusJamus Yes, yes they are. What would we do without the internets?
ReplyDelete>I sometimes miss Smash Brothers Melee. Brawl is just so... slow?
ReplyDelete>Gamecube was awesome.
Oh god I love you everywhere and forever.
If only I could go to the London meet-up.
ReplyDeleteI really can't arrange traveling to the opposite side of the country in one week.
@RyuuKiba
ReplyDeletedude, can you PM me with your phone? i doubt ill be able to find the group inside that place.
email is same as my nikname with gmail
Little Big Planet ponies are awesome and so is that Winter wrap up on the piano.
ReplyDeleteNo Tom Baker pony?
ReplyDeleteI thought I said that already. Where'd my post go?
Okay, wow, Equestria's officially going all timey-wimey on us.
ReplyDelete@Lasimo
ReplyDeleteI concur. Let's bring the joy of Ponies to Tampa, Florida!
@The Seventh Wonderbolt

@Hellkipz
ReplyDeleteDone ^^ please confirm if you got it ^^
@catsuhako
ReplyDeleteI've been wondering that too.
I haven't been posting there, but I've been curious about it, and I've noticed the site seems to have been down the last week or so.
Also, the "new" address posted in the article seems to be down as well.
@Dantes_Grill
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing "Pony Music Video Hell".
@RyuuKiba
ReplyDeleteSorry for the barrage of questions but Can I buy the ticket on that day or do I have to buy one in advance? About how many pesos will the ticket be? And finally at what time I should be there?
Am I the only one who's joined the Mario Kart 7 community?
