Trotcon 2013 - New Quests from Youtube
Confound those ponies, they drive us to YouTube and YouTube video accessories! What mashups are to music, YouTube poops are to videos: varied, creative, sometimes serious and often silly, but most importantly, a good YTP is filled with plenty of ssuss. It can be hard to come by, but fortunately for all of you, two of the most prominent MLP poopers will be joining us this summer to provide more than enough ssuss for everyone: Unanimous Delivers and SgtScrubnoob!
About two years ago, Unanimous Delivers started posting some silly YouTube videos with ponies in them. Since then, he's surpassed 10,000 subscribers. Even if you don't know him, you likely have come across his work at some point. By far his most popular video is Night of Pony (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftvZFUg4HPc), which alone has topped a million views, but there's plenty more where that came from! You might have also seen Pinkie Trigger (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNDMEVJzvfQ), 1000 People Clicked on the Subscribe Button (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGSmdOlRokM), or his Sonic Rainboom perspective video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uw1CEObbhyw).
If you know Unanimous, you probably also know SgtScrubnoob, one of the more prolific poopers out there, with videos like Mega Mare (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxGWkon7WdQ), Apple Race (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtWiaos7Bpo), Rusty Bucket Neigh (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R9Lm3X8zPQ), and dozens of others. On top of that, he is also the creator of the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic article on Know Your Meme, which has amassed over eight million views. If you were introduced to this crazy fandom by that article, you (and millions of others) have him to thank!
Unanimous Delivers and SgtScrubnoob will be hosting some video-related panels, showing off some of their favorite YouTube poops and PMVs, and talking about what it takes to turn a video into a video.

Now, if you'll excuse us, we'd like to take a brief moment to reflect.
We, TrotCon's staff, agree (unanimously, if you may) that 2011 was a fantastic year in many ways. It has been incredible to watch a few dozen fans of an up-and-coming cartoon turn into hundreds, and then tens of thousands, all in the span of a few months. Some people had their doubts that the fandom would last through the summer once the season ended. It not only lasted, but thrived, with every kind of fan content imaginable: art, fanfiction, music, videos, games, and much more.
Part of our goal with TrotCon is to try to celebrate and recreate that feeling in a sense. We'd like to bring back the excitement, creative energy, and so many wonders of watching this talented fandom emerge from such a humble beginning, so that those who weren't around can experience it, and those who were there can remember and enjoy it all over again.
The Brony Days Indiegogo Announced
Have you ever dreamed of attending a brony convention in Paris? Then get excited, for the BronyDays, the first brony convention to be held in France, are coming!
A convention is always a great moment, either for the various activities or for the people you meet. Imagine a place filled with people who enjoys My Little Pony : Friendship is Magic just like you! And some of these people are special, sometimes from a long way away, and without whom this event would not be the same : the guests of honour.
We, the BronyDays staff, have decided to launch a crowdfunding campaign: the money we will receive will be used to invite guests. Be in control of your convention : the more money we will receive, the more guests there will be. Provided that we get enough fund, we could even invite show talents, in fact we are currently discussing with one of them! We are also in good touch with some great community artists, such as LaserPon3, famous in Europe for his spectacular laser shows, or JanAnimation, who recently animated the song "Meet the Bronies" of the brony documentary. Rest assured that we will announce each guest as soon are we are able to confirm them.

TrotCon 2013 - Equestria Inspired Announcement
Equestria Inspired is a gaming group dedicated to giving the Brony community more ways to enjoy the world of Equestria and be inspired. Established since the show's beginning, it's been their goal to give everypony outside of the show the chance to feel like they're in it. Whether it be in Ponyville with the cast of the show, or back in Equestria's past, EquIn is at the forefront of My Little Pony tabletop and party gaming - eager to make everyone feel just THAT much closer to the wonderful world that has inspired us all. Draìoct Neighsach and PonIver will be teleportalling you into the heart of Equestria all weekend long in our tabletop gaming room.
Being an avid con-goer, Draìoct Neighsach (Pronounced: 'Dry-ekt'), the Founder of Equestria Inspired Gaming, has been enjoying various conventions for more fandoms than you can count on your hooves. This will be his 10th anniversary of bringing his love for gaming everywhere he goes - from video gaming to LARPing, tabletop to party gaming, and so much more! An avid Brony from the beginning, he's worked long and hard to fill the void that is the roleplaying game enjoyment of the fandom. Thusly he has developed several titles, including "Inspireland", "MLP: TOON!", "Mass Effect: Unity", and the fan favorite "Are You A Changeling?". He would love nothing more than to share in these wonderful roleplaying escapades with all of you!
