Yep, you guys caught me! This is actually how I go about getting news for the Roundup, especially for delicious cake. Hey, don't scoff, it's a dangerous business going out there! The threat of being killed by frosting or a meetup avalanche is a very real and present danger every day.
Anyhow, enough silliness, time for some news guys! Thanks to UC77 for the picture!
Ponibooru Film Night - Final Fantasy
Copy Paste:
We're going all digital this week with next film 'Final Fantasy - The Spirits Within'. Once the most technically advanced all-CGI film in existence, this movie became infamous for its high budget and low return. We're going to see how it stands up over a decade later.
This week's guests are:
Feral Socks
DaisyHead
Harlequin Jester
DeeperMadness
Roboshi
Psychopomf
We'll be at our usual place over on http://www.livestream.com/
Past Sins Printing Project Update!
I never did read Past Sins, but then again I haven't really had a lot of time to read much over the past year anyway. At least those who have read and liked the story will be happy to know that 809 people signed up for a copy of the Past Sins book. That's a lot of pony! Check out below for all the details.
Bronies! We are amazed and flattered by your response to our little
project. The amount of people interested in it multiple times exceeded
our initial expectations.
At the moment of writing this announcement there was 809 sign-ups! This
means that "Past Sins Print" is so far the biggest printing project in
the history of Brony fandom. It's all thanks to you!
Thank You! Your impressive attitude encourages us to continue working hard.
It is true that the registration is over, but we sincerely encourage all
of you to sign up for the wait list. There is still a chance to get your
own copy of "Past Sins".
We have sent requests for confirmation to everyone, but we are still
waiting for answers from about 200 people. It is also entirely possible
that our messages never reached those of you who have not responded yet.
We will be sending reminders soon.
If you are one of our signers, please check our homepage regularly for
updates.
