With Trixie's episode coming up it only seemed appropriate that she get a header this week. Plus Seth asked and I really don't want to be locked in the laundry room with PK.
Sorry for no news yesterday guys, but there literally was so little news to report it would have been one sad looking Roundup. Tonight's is much beefier so that's a relief! Also, apologies if there are any mistakes as I've been up for 36 hours and things are a little loopy right now.
Check it all out after the break and thank you Sugarcube-Owl for the awesome picture!
Another Week, Another Review From TV.com
TV.com's review of One Bad Apple is out, the reviewer not as happy with this episode as with the others so far this season claiming in a snippet that the episode "relied on standard bullying PSA rhetoric, including informing an older person about the bullying (in this case, Applejack)....It was all just so pointed and overly reinforced throughout the episode that "One Bad Apple" didn't completely fit with the show's overall tone of gently weaving in a lesson."
I personally really enjoyed the episode, but I do see the reviewers point. What do you think?

Past Sins - The Audio Book
Past Sins is getting an audio book treatment thanks to Illya for you fans out there! Take a look at the details below.
For the past few months I have been working with Pen Stroke Pony and the musician Forcedemodo to produce an audiobook of Pen Stroke's Novel "Past Sins." As the novel is around 200,000 words the project is requiring a great deal of Labor to produce and edit. But I have reached the stage now where I wish to begin making it available to the Public. I have the first ten chapters posted at my soundcloud site: http://soundcloud.com/illya-

Successful Meetups

European Brony Meetup
Copy Paste:
This weekend the first EU-M (European Brony Meetup) Had taken place in Basel, Switzerland.
With over 50 guests from Switzerland, Germany and Austria, it was the largest pony event, Switzerland has ever had.
The event had two parts: First a small program, with a presentation for the game, PONYCRAFT: Tainted Skies, which is in progress, by The Comet. And watching the new episode of course.
The second part was a party until 4:00 AM.
Next to our mascot, which was designed by Leyanor .
We also had our own anthem, by InfectedPonyz, who also played as a DJ that night.
and were selling special energydrinks for our guests. http://i.imgur.com/CtLXk.jpg
All in all the meetup was a huge success and will take place every year from now on. Slowly growing each time, until we someday hopefully can call the EU-M a convention.
Here some more pictures:

Boston Bronies Meetup
Copy Paste:
Hey, are you a Gamer? Local to the Boston, New Hampshire, or Vermont Area? Well we have a treat for you.
The Boston-Bronies are hosting an overnight meetup at the Gamer's Sanctuary, located at 491 Amherst St. Nashua, NH on December 15th and 16th from 6 PM to 8 AM. The venue is a large console gaming lounge with all sorts of consoles and games, with 11 100+" projector screens. (And a few smaller ones too.) Come on down for an awesome night of fun, food, gaming, and pony!
You can find the venue's information, along with the games they have at their website: http://gamerssanctuary.vpweb.
Oh, and don't forget to check them out on facebook too. The Boston-Bronies made a great impression for round one last month, and the venue's owner really wants us back, and to see a ton more Bronies in the store. So let's share the love!
We'll also be running a Yankee Swap! For those who don't know, everyone participating brings a gift, no more than 20$ in value. The gifts are placed into a pool, and everyone draws numbers out of a hat. The first number selects first from the pile, etc. Each person after the first selects a present, and then can choose to swap with anyone who already picked. Once everyone has gone, the person who went first can then choose to swap with any open present. If you're interested in participating, or have any questions, email me at [email protected], and I'll add you to our list. We'll be running the Yankee Swap at Midnight.
Also, you like Tournaments? Of course you like tournaments. You're a gamer! We'll be running a few tournaments through the night for perfect pony prizes. Bring your game face!
Sleeping space is available inside the venue. However, sleeping bags, pillows, and the like are not. If you're planning on sleeping at all during this epic night, be sure to bring one of your own!
If you're interested in coming, check it out at the meetup page. http://www.meetup.com/
We can't wait to see you guys there!

Planetside 2 Clan

The Equestrian Foreign Legion(Brony Mount and Blade Warband clan) is offically expanding its scope to a new game, PlanetSide 2. This is a call to all bronies who enjoy PlanetSide 2 and wish to play in a "Outfit"(clan). Things such as organized operations and attacks are being planned and our goal is it to make sure no brony won't have an ally at his side. We are positioned in the Jaegar server and fight on the side of the TR, currently mostly active on Amerish.
Link to Clan steam Page: http://steamcommunity.com/
Questions are best directed at "EQFL_Sapare", if not available you can alternatively contact "EQFL_Roy Wolf" or "Commissar Tavi".

Santa Clarita Meetup
Copy Paste:
Why hello there
again, mares and gentlecolts! After the marvelous time we had last time the
Bronies of Santa Clarita are once again going to spend another evening at the
Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf at the Westfield Valencia Town Center, which will be
on November 30, 2012 at 5 P.M. Here at this fine establishment you can order an
array of different sumptuous yet refreshing beverages and delectable baked
goods (and some healthy snakes), ranging from a simple cup of coffee or tea to
mixed beverages, herbal infusions, cocoa, etc. There is also a plethora of
nearby restaurants to dine at for a scrumptious meal. Once we are finished consuming
our delightful meals and grow tired of staying in the same location, we can
migrate elsewhere on mall premises and enjoy browsing what fine commodities
their stores have to offer.
