BronyCon Room Share
Hey everyone! I’d like to announce that once again, just like last year, I’m hosting a hotel group for Bronycon in Baltimore! This time, it’s set up at the Holiday Inn Inner Harbor, which like the Days Inn before it is very close to the convention center.
The main hotel booking is from Thursday till Monday, but it is quite flexible. If you need to leave on Sunday, that’s fine; if you want to arrive on Tuesday and leave on Wednesday, that’s doable as long as you have a group of 4.
Further details and contact information can be found here.
If you aren’t going to Bronycon, or aren’t interested in this roomshare, please reblog to help spread the word. Thanks!
Brony@Home "Burn it up" 2015 Summer Competition
Basic Competition Information
Competition runs June 14th 0:00 UTC to August 14th 0:00 UTC.
Competitors must run Folding@home on team 212997 and post in this thread to sign-up.
Prizes are distributed with a point-based system.
Competing in the competition
To get started, just download and install the software at the very top of the page of the Folding@home website
Pick a username to fold under (it automatically registers it when setting up the software)
Set a quick little passkey (optional, but recommended)
Set the team to 212997 (very important, go pony power!)
In addition to installing the software, make a post in this thread saying "Hey! I love you guys (espically you tiwake!) and I want to join the competition. My folding name is SirFoldAlot even though my username on this forum is RainbowCrash41902."
About the Competition
The folding@home software is biological simulation software for research done at colleges across the world. It performs many calculations, and places a significant load on your system, causing your hardware to heat up. While the program is designed to go unnoticed by reducing its usage in real time to prevent disruptions to your own usage, you can also limit the maximum usage of the program to keep heat at a safe level. Monitor the first few minutes of running the software, and adjust accordingly, especially on laptops. In most cases, no adjustment is necessary though.
Because Folding@home does not count bonus points unless you complete 10 units or more, I highly suggest you set up the software several days before the competition starts. When the competition ends you can of course stop the software, however you would be stopping your computer from doing research. The whole point of this competition is to get ponies running the software on their computers for ongoing biological research.
Like the last competition, there is one prize category. The more you fold and get points, the more likely you are to win a prize (based on a ticket system).

OC's Needed!
I've decided I'm going to completely tear down the way I write the journal for my commissions. People seem to get confused on how it's organized so I am going to try and make it easier for everyone. The current vision I have for how I'm going to do it is going to take a while to create. I want to have a little diversity of Pony OCs so if anyone wants to volunteer their OC for me to draw comment with a reference. These drawings will be free for now. I am going to need at least 28 OCs. If anyone has any ideas they want to toss in feel free to comment.
-RULES-
. keep it G rated (no Gore)
. only do pony OCs
. no difficult accessories like armor
· No ponies made with pony creator or other doll making games
. No mane 6 recolors (don't be lazy, be creative with your OCs)
. no Alicorns or tall ponies
. I have the right to turn down OCs if necessary
. Make sure the manes on your OCs are organized
. Artists who volunteer their OC will be featured when the revision is finished
. I won't draw the same OC more than once however I will draw multiple OC's for the same deviant as long as they are different characters
. I might not draw the OCs in order displayed
. Don't ask for additional details on your OC or it will count as a commission
