Tonight's Successful Meetups
Hearth Warming Party
Big news from Hong Kong! The first MLP tea party in Hong Kong was held successfully in December 27th at Kowloon Bay, Kowloon, Hong Kong. The event is, fittingly, named Hearth's Warming Party as it is held right after Christmas. Everybody, from the staff to guests, are all having a good time! The party was split to two sessions, session A is at 1:00PM (HK Local time), and session B is at 4:00PM. Both sessions have a combined attendance of around 40, which is surprisingly higher than the organizer's and my anticipation. Moreover, Hasbro gave out three sets of their merchs for gift exchange
Nevertheless, the party is a major milestone for the Hongkongese brony fandom as this is the first ever MLP fan event organized in Hong Kong. I am certainly overjoyed to see an MLP fan event held in Hong Kong, and certainly looking forward to the next event of similar kind.

Singapore Bronies EOY Pony Meetup 2016!
The Singaporean bronies organised a much needed pony meetup on the 10th of December. Organised by Squeaky_Belle and Bendykins, we celebrated 2016 and spread some Christmas cheer in the small but cosy condominium function room! Despite being held on the same day as the EOY Cosplay Festival in Singapore, the turnout was still better than we could've hoped for: around thirty of us were present!
We did several different activities, including My Little Karaoke, Fighting is Magic and even a DJ session by ZAER (https://soundcloud.com/theoneandonlyzaer). On top of that, we had booths: our very own MeloDenesa (http://melodenesa.deviantart.com/) sold some pony merchandise, alongside St. Pinkie representing the SEAPonycon project (http://www.seaponycon.com/).
The event officially started at Pasir Ris MRT Station, where we chilled at the nearby McDonald's there with a few others for lunch. From there we proceeded to the condominium via bus at 3pm. Things were off to rocky start at first: we were supposed to screen the Season 6 finale but the cheap projector didn't want to work. Despite that, we still had some fun: some of us went to the patio outside to play Magic the Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh, and of course some pony games like CCG and TSSSF. The rest stayed inside and played some casual Fighting is Magic or just had general chill time. Some of our community artists were there sketching art too!
Eventually we got an LCD display working and things went back into action! We started with My Little Karaoke...which eventually went all the way right up until after dinner time. (We even got We Are Number One on there and sang it! Memes...:D) The shenanigans and card games outside continued too. As mentioned earlier the turnout was encouraging; throughout the rest of the day people were still arriving for the event! Although the snacks and drinks ran out quickly, pizzas were delivered to us as dusk fell. Loads of pony songs were still being sung.
After that we invited St. Pinkie to give his presentation on SEAPonycon. It will be the first of its kind in South East Asia: bringing together the various regional brony communities at one single event! (This particular recording can be found right here on their YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmw9Wn7BBl8)
Right after the presentation, the one hour DJ party went into full swing! ZAER performed a pretty awesome set for us. (If you're interested in the brony musicians here in South East Asia, check out Crystal Empire Records: https://crystalempire.bandcamp.com/) Free posters featuring vector art from daspacepony (http://kitkatyj.deviantart.com/) were given to everyone as they started to leave.
We wrapped up the entire event with one last activity: finally watching that Season 6 finale! The time had already exceeded, but the security guards were kind enough to let us carry on. The rest of us who were still there watched the finale together before heading off at around 11pm. All in all, the event was a success and proved that despite our differences, pony meetups for the local brony community is still possible!

Tonight's Groups Looking For More
Gentlecolts 2017 Revival – Discord Chat
Invite Link: https://discord.gg/upsGeMg
Once again, I’m sorry. This is the last time I’m going to attempt this, which is why I’m going to do it differently. Instead of doing it all by myself, contacting people by mail, trying to get a full group but failing because we couldn’t get enough artists or whatever and then giving up on it and going silent for a few months… fuck it. I’m not gonna do that. I know you all probably don’t have much of a reason to believe in us any more, but… please, just one last chance, okay?
Please, if you have ANY interest whatsoever in this project, whether or not you think you can contribute or plan on joining the team etc, please come hang out in our brand new discord channel! I’d love to be able to talk to you all in real time, maybe we can get a ball rolling, if you can’t help directly maybe you can spread the word and ask friends etc.
Here’s the link again, feel free to share it: https://discord.gg/upsGeMg
