How about some more game related art since it keeps popping up in my dA box? Okami was one of my favorite PS2 games even though I unfortunately never got around to beating it. I've got to get a copy again someday and make that happen. Games are also relevant tonight because we have some game projects looking for help tonight so if you want to see some more pony games in the future please make sure to check out our Groups Looking for More section!
On to the news guys!

Hello from the Seattle area!
I organized a small group to go out and congratulate Andrea Libman and her team for finishing The Ride to Conquer Cancer. As a reminder, this was a two-day journey all the way from Vancouver, BC to Seattle, WA. It's always excellent to see members of the cast and crew go out and do other awesome things aside from their work on the show. I'm glad to see that they were able to gather so much support from the community as well! Notably, Andrea was kind enough to sign the ponies seen in the photo. Once I am finished working on them, they will be making their way over to Everfree Northwest for this year's Charity Auction. Expect to see more like them as well!
After a short meeting with Andrea, a few of us took off for a three-hour trip to Kiggins Theatre in Vancouver, WA for the premiere of Equestria Girls. Unfortunately, Seattle did not get a showing of our own. On the other hand, we did get to join our Portland counterparts for a fantastic time!

Bronies of Alabama Beach Meetup
Copy Paste:
Bronies of Alabama enjoyed a fantastic meetup in Fairhope, AL, over the weekend. Activities included gaming, ponies, Monty Python, venturing into the Gulf, the entire first season of Dan Vs, Build-A-Bear, and a trip to the Pensacola National Naval Aviation Museum, where the group photo was taken. I thought it was quite appropriate to have our photo by the Blue Angels, which the Wonderbolts are apparently based upon. Thanks especially to Bryan whose family graciously allowed us to stay in their house for the weekend.
Bronies of Alabama is always looking for bronies in or with close ties to the state to join us on our fairly frequent forays of fun and friendship!

EqG Meetup in Penn
Copy Paste:
This past Sunday, the Bronies of Southern Pennsylvania gathered in Camp Hill, PA to see Equestria Girls. This was also the first time many of our members had ever came to a meet-up, so it was very exciting meeting and getting to know our new friends! After the movie concluded, we all made our way to Siebert Park for a picnic lunch and enjoyed a fantastic afternoon together. We're looking forward to our next big meet-up when season four premieres!

Montana Equestria Girls Meetup
Copy Paste:
Hello, I'm planning on seeing Equestria Girls when it opens in Billings Montana the 22nd at noon, and wanted to extend an invitation to any fellow Montana fans to meet up! We will watch the movie at 12 at the Shiloh 14 theater, then maybe take some time afterwards to enjoy a cold yogurt and discuss the movie at the shop next door. Montana is a big state with a small population and we tend to get a bit isolated, so let's see if we can get together and enjoy this first full-length animated FiM film as a group! I'd just like to remind everyone that common courtesy should apply when we watch the film. I know Equestria Daily already posted an entry on this, but there will most likely be children there so let us be respectful as we represent our local Brony community. If you'd like to discuss details with me, please message me on my Deviantart Account which is as follows ( http://annlies.deviantart.com ).

Equestria Girls Fanfiction Contest
Copy Paste:
The object of the contest is to write a one-shot piece of fanfiction describing what you think Equestria Girls will (or should!) be like! And, remember: anything goes! Do you want their high school to be haunted? Go ahead! Do you want to flip their genders? That’s fine too! Do you want them to secretly be robot pilots that fight eldritch horrors in their spare time? WHY NOT? As long as the story is reasonably self-contained and meets the minimum word count, as well as the content conditions outlined below, anything will be accepted!
See below for details on prizes and other conditions!
Prompt: Equestria Girls one-shot! What do you see in the future for our ponies-turned-humans?
Minimum Word Count: 2000 words
Prizes:
- First prize gets first pick from the prize list below, and will be read on-stream in the voice of one Morgan Freeman (substitute)!
- Second prize gets second pick, and a review spotlight on the above stream.
- Third prize gets the leftovers, and a review spotlight on the above stream.
The prize list is as follows:
- One (1) Steam game, under 10 USD, courtesy of Reikim
- An artistic commission of your choice, courtesy of the wonderful and talented Chobibi
- Any line you want (and we mean /any/ line) said in the voice of your favourite pony, courtesy of the absurdly-connected Scoot-Scootaloo
Rules and Content Conditions - No rule 34. Period. There’s a difference between sex as a plot point and sex as a plot, and believe us, we know the difference.
- No excessive gore. See the above. Gore for gore’s sake is just as bad as sex for the sake of sex.
- No hatefics. If you’re going to tear the premise apart, please, put some thought into it; if you’re just here to complain about the show’s existence, please, go elsewhere.
- No taking existing plots and pasting them wholesale into the EG universe. That’s plagiarism, and that’s a big no-no. At least /try/ to be original about it.
- Crossovers are perfectly fine, as long as the EG cast remains central.
- Bronystate is an English-speaking service. That carries over into our contests. British or American dictionaries only.
- Spelling and grammar will be given particular attention. A typo here or there will be overlooked; excessive errors bordering on illegibility will not. Grab a proofreader, save a sanity point.
- All entries will be judged on even grounds. You will not be deducted points for using a specific scenario or theme, so long as it adheres to the guidelines given above; you will only be judged based on your skil in executing the story.
Submission Instructions
Oh good, you’re still here. So that means you’re at least vaguely interested!
Submissions will be accepted between 12 AM June 17, and 12 AM June 24. Please do your best to ensure your entry is in .doc or .docx format, and openable in Word 2010 or earlier; we’re pretty good at finding ways of making things work, but if for whatever weird reason we can’t open your entry, we can’t very well judge it! If you want to, you may also submit a link to your story on FimFic, FanFic, or whatever site floats your boat; might as well take the chance for some self-advertsement while you’re at it!
All entries should be sent to bronystatefanfic@gmail.com
We look forward to your participation!

Greetings fellow bronies! I'm Red-Pear, current head of the artist department for the up and coming Bogyle Bronies Studio. You may already know us for our Know Your Mare series, Ponies With Hats animation, or some of our previous work. For those that don't know about BB, we are a team of bronies made up of various different writers, animators, artists, musicians, and VA's all coming together to form a variety of different productions, be it comic adaptations, a Convention Promo, or a simple audioplay.
With the recent addition of the art department, and the overall growing need for more artists, we've decided to ask for some to come aboard! Be it traditional art, digital, or vectoring, we need you! If you're interested in becoming a part of Bogyle Bronies, contact me via email at redpearinc@gmail.com with a few examples of your work. Thanks for your time!

My Little Text Game
Copy Paste:
What is MLTG?
MLTG stands for, My Little Text Game, and as you could probably tell, it is a text game!
And we need help!
This being a text based game, there is a lot of high quality writing that needs to be done, especially to make it immersive, and to make it feel like you are in Equestria.
Hugging Fluttershy alone in her cottage, or racing Rainbow Dash through the ghastly gouge, or fighting Discord alongside the mane six... Or maybe even singing a duet with King Sombra in a karaoke party at sugar cube corner! Or maybe you just want to be a dragon terrorizing the countryside?
In any case, this game will be full of generated events, locations, objects, characters, you name it! But being text based, we have workshops in our forum. (Our forum has been really dead recently due to poor PR) an area of the boards purposely dedicated so people can submit and post content to be added to the game (given you follow the guidelines properly for each board).
There is so much content to cover, without help from the brony community it would send us into development tautarus! I could do this alone, and I will if i have to... If you want to wait for an extra several months! Or together, we can get this thing done, and even faster too! Everyone registered on the site will be credited in the game's development and all have first hoof access to releases!
Come join the cause, where anyone that knows how to type can contribute!
And a big thanks to EQD and the staff for this amazing opportunity to get ourselves out there!
