I resisted making it the drawfriend main image, but I couldn't not make it the roundup image! Trixie totally couldn't do that caliber of magic, but she likes to pretend she can.
Have some news!

Two: Top 100 Pony Song Countdown

Hello, it’s Sellyme and ExplodingPonyToast here! We’re proud to announce the official premiere of our Top 100 Pony Songs of 2011 list on Everfree Radio is coming! This has been by far the biggest project either of us has undertaken. Join us at http://www.everfreeradio.com/ on our live stream for over 6 hours of pony music hosted by One-Trick! WAY more details on the website!
Russian Pony Dub!
Apparently they completely butchered this one.
Someone actually gave me a list of stuff they screwed up! Check it out from one of the Russian bronies:
- They've removed about 25% of spoken lines without any reason.
- They've made shitload of mistranslations and errors (further text analysis revealed they were using auto translation tools without even basic quality assurance).
- They've mistranslated the most of character names.
- In summary, they've completely ruined MLPFIM experience for Russian kids, including my little sister, which I hoped to show the series to.
Ouch...

NOLA Meetup
Where: New Orleans Comic Con
When: Saturday, January 28th
Website: http://forums.rainbowdash.com/index.php/topic,53.0.html
New Orleans Comic Con is right around the corner and the perfect opportunity for us Gulf Coast bronies to get together! Only in its second year, the con is still small and a perfect place to start a yearly brony meet up tradition. If you're going come post on the forum and we can work out the best time and place to meet. Let's make sure our fandom is represented at this haven for geekery!

Grimdark RP Forum
Story: Approximately one hundred years ago tears opened and closed in the sky and ground. They spit Equestrians out into a new world: Refuge. The generations that grew up in Refuge are the characters that populate this world. They're all a little strange; as time goes on, I predict we'll see more hybrid OCs, unicorns with bizarre powers, ponies with strange modifications or shadowy pasts...

That is an epic image, Seth!! AppleJack is still better IMO
VastaKustutaHey look it the nightly round up
VastaKustutaThat Minecraft server looks pretty cool!
VastaKustutaIs thonight's roundup early because yesterday's roundup was late?
VastaKustutaSethisto, are you compensating for something???
aw man, I wish I could have made it to the Anaheim meet up: I was down there just a few days ago...
VastaKustutaAutor on selle kommentaari eemaldanud.
VastaKustuta(that is an amazing way to show off a custom map, by the way)
VastaKustutaThe pony merch finder isn't in Denmark, so my friend is at a loss, lol
And the Skyrim mod shouts are a must have ;D
wow... first time I'm awake when a roundup is posted... I really must get to bed it's 3 AM here
VastaKustutaIt looks like all of the radios are doing it now.
VastaKustuta100 best songs? IM THERE
VastaKustutaHey Seth. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKA52BJYyS0&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL
VastaKustutaI have yet to make a sethisto related comment this year... now I have. He really likes Trixie.
VastaKustutaIn any case "Fu Ro Yay!" and all that. Nice wrap up and everything, but it hardly has anything of too much interest to me tonight. The exception to news of the Russian Dub sounding frightfully hilarious, they should redub with all the mistakes included back into in english.
Rainbow Dash: I am the hugging of friend Applejack yes? Now I am the hugging of friend Fluttershy? I like the huggings they are life blood. (Sorry if this offends anyone who is a stereotype or likes hugging.)
So, I've stayed up for another roundup. I have really gotta get to bed earlier. Staying up this late consuming ponies isn't doing my health any good. Oh, whatever. Nothing wrong with Trixie "headlining" the roundup I guess. Shame about the Russian dub. But if the Spanish dubs have shown me anything, it's that something always gets lost in translation. Or in this case, a lot gets lost apparently. Great that EverFree Radio is doing some coverage on BroNYCon for those of us that can't make it. For my part, I'll be taking plenty of pictures throughout the event to share with you guys. How exactly, I still have to figure it out, but I will.
VastaKustutaDidn't you already do Roundup #204 yesterday? I think today is #205.
VastaKustutaY NO MLP NEW EPISODES!? xc
VastaKustutaI will probably be watching the Bronycon stream. I have something I need to do on the 4th but it is late at night so I think I should be able to listen in on the songs for a bit.
VastaKustuta@Anonycus
VastaKustutaY212K.
A wizard did it.
or the lowest common denominator.
Trixie sat on his laptop.
I dunno. I like to think with the proper amount of magic study, Trixie just might be able to be as powerful or closer to as powerful as she would like. Magic is like many things: some have a special knack for it, Like Twilight. But you can also study up to greater levels with it too. Maybe Trixie just needs to do a bit more heavy studying and practice. :)
VastaKustutaThe Russian Friendship is Magic dub sounds interesting. Too bad they messed up the translations so badly. Should ditch the auto translating tools for an actual translator. Or at least have a quality supporter who can check them. lol
The merchandise finder is kinda cool. Hopefully it'll get updated with many more places that sell pony stuff.
The Sweet and Elite Canterlot TF2 map looks decent. That song they started the video off with... oi. lol
Aww, little Gilda beanie. Those are so adorable. :3
Huzzah, my mods got posted.
VastaKustutaJanuary 7th karrotline is when the new episode shows.
VastaKustutathat's an awsome pic. of trixie, but that apple jack pillow.....kinda creepy!!!!
VastaKustutaSilly Russians, you're doing it wrong! You know, you just keep on being yourselves, we love you anyway.
VastaKustutaahh, i love how the nightly roundups show up about the same time i get home from school :D
VastaKustutaDon't listen to that russian bronies, they whine all the time. Russian dub is far from perfect, but bearable.
VastaKustuta"couldn't not"
VastaKustutaDoesn't that mean " could not not"
Ignore my comment. :p
VastaKustutaHmmm... Not sure if want to join Grimdark RP... Even though Grimdark is one of my favorite genres... hmmm...
VastaKustuta@Senior Waffles
VastaKustutaDon't speak like that. Every single russian brony is mad now. Because some dumbass was payed money on his job just for copypasting text into a google translator.
Scary to imagine, how they will sing a song.
VastaKustutaI NEED more information about Bronystock!! Can't... take... the wait!!
VastaKustutaHey guys! Sellyme here, of the Top 100 list. I'd just like to say, if you're thinking "Oh, I've heard them all before", you're wrong. We went through damn-near 5,000 songs and were sure to make absolutely certain that it wasn't a popularity contest, and lesser-known songs that are just as good as the popular ones (or better) would also get the spotlight. A large amount of the songs in the list I'll guarantee you haven't heard!
VastaKustutaD'aw, that Gilda is adorable.
VastaKustutaI gotta buy myself a fluttershy beanie. Or ditzy doo beanie. God their just so adorable!
VastaKustutaAm I the only one that finds it amusing that there's a grammatical error in the news item complaining about bad translation?
VastaKustutaStill, sounds pretty lame.
The narrator at the beginning of the Russian dub sounded smexy.
VastaKustutaRussian dub still sounds cute :)
VastaKustutaDoes equestria Daily have an own forum?
VastaKustutaYou were going to show your sister a Russian dub of MLP? Dude are you like half-Russian or something?
VastaKustuta"further text analysis revealed they were using auto translation tools without even basic quality assurance"
VastaKustutaWell, it seems they translated it manually, they just don't get 99% of English idioms, puns and etc. Translation is obviously human-made, but made without any care about quality.
great now i know where to find pony-merch in germany thanks!
VastaKustutalol, that Russian dub was pretty butchered. I knew learning Russian was a good idea! lol
VastaKustuta@Juli7xxxxx
VastaKustutayep :)
All I can say about Russian dub is that russian bronies(and other people) will ALWAYS whine about the bad localisation. In reality it can be bad, but certainly not THAT bad.
VastaKustutaAlso, there's a second episode in Russian dub and the funny thing is: it's better than the first one. They still have lots of mistranslations, but Pinkie's song makes up for most of them.
@Lord Daenar
VastaKustutayeah russians really love to complain about translations, even good one, but this time it's really bad (not very-very-very bad), just plain bad.
Well, at least the Russians did a proper dubbing unlike the many others I've heard coming from them where the original audio is simply left in the background and the dubbers just narrate on top of it. Never understood the logic in that.
VastaKustutaTry 20:19 on the russian dub.
VastaKustuta"You Luna poni. LUNA PONI! *gasp*"
This is te best dub ever.
I wonder if there will be any brony get-together's in Oklahoma, I would drop everything and drive there lol
VastaKustuta@chaos8r8kYou're right!
VastaKustutaLUNA PONI!
I don't know Russian but if that's what they're calling Nightmare Moon... wow.
I don't know what they called Twilight, but Applejack and Rainbow Dash sound like they didn't even have their names translated? If their names were translated in the older generations I'd say this was a good choice.
Still... Luna Pony? Hm, I doubt there was an equivalent pun for Nightmare in Russian. Now that I think about it, a lot of the puns will probably be lost in translation.
@hyreia^if their names WEREN'T translated in the older series.
VastaKustuta@hyreia
VastaKustutaThey didn't translate Applejack, but they DID translate Rainbow Dash... the first half actually. She is Raduga Dash.
Twilight was translated as Sumerechnaya Iskorka(Сумеречная Искорка) which is basically word by word translation.
And about NMM it's just strange. Mare in the moon=Nightmare Moon=Princess Luna(!)=Lunnaya Pony.
Thanks for featuring the Minecraft server!
VastaKustutatrixie is truly best pony regardless!
VastaKustutahmm, should I mod my skyrim and have ponies on it or keep it the way it is =/
VastaKustutaI need to get into Team Fortress 2. I bet there's truly nothing like slaughtering my foes in an authentic Canterlot ballroom. You could even say it's a...ballroom blitz!
VastaKustutaI always miss the la meetups
VastaKustutaA gilda beanie? All my bits.
VastaKustutaHoly shit NOLA meet up.
VastaKustutaYour little sister lives in Russia?
VastaKustutaI see no one ebmven mentiond the Grimdark forum
VastaKustutaIt seems interesting

VastaKustutaFINALLY A NOLA MEETUP!!!
VastaKustutaSquee!
