Dubstep

Ah, there you have it! My bad c:

Kay! So none of these answers are 100% endorsed by anyone, just my thoughts on things (Also I wrote out these answers before Steel there made his post, so his may have different answers than me =P) 15: I don't think we currently have any other currencies at the moment. But I personally think sticking with Bits is the best idea, cus then you have to actually start thinking about things like exchange rates. That's not to say players can't say specific areas or tribes or what have you have their own currency, but I think sticking with Bits as the mainstay is a good idea. 16: Pretty sure it's just coin, paper money is so passe, unless it smells like maple syrup. 17: I'd wager it depends on the stones. Some areas may have an abundance of some times, while others have a deficit. 18: The last Emperor stuck to the tradition of not really mingling much with external affairs, the current Empress is looking to strengthen bonds between Long Guo and outlaying areas. But likely Bellosh could elucidate more on this topic. 19: I can't see why not. 20: Likely depends on the area. 21: Movie theaters do exist, I mean heck, we've seen cameras, as well as that recording bit that Twilight did to expose Svengallop, I'm certain they exist. As for how long, I'm not certain. 22: Nah bruv, it'd totally be San Fransiscolt. 23: Air travel, just like others, still runs the risk of robbery. Though by sky pirates in this case. Given that the ships, I assume, are more costly to run and maintain, I figure it'd be a bit more expensive than average, so likely behind behind both of them simply due to cost. 24: We try to stick at an ambiguous tech level, similar to the show. We don't want things like real cars or aeroplanes around. But stuff like the Flim Flam Brother's magitech car, or simple phones like seen in Manehattan are fine. 25: I think it's probably safe to assume that police forces have been around for a while, with the REA being the 'primary' law enforcement, so to speak. Where the police forces within their cities would have to answer to REA officials should the need for intervention arise. 26: As far as I'm aware, nope and nope. Certainly an interesting thought though. 27: Old enough to know better too young to care (I don't actually know) 28: It's an Empire of course! 29: Feel free to make one! Just keep in mind, some players may not hold it as canon in their own threads, as such things may mess with their plans

World of Equestria: Land of Dragons Welcome everypony to the new World of Equestria: Land of Dragons lore expansion pack! This is a momentous expansion to WoE and I hope you are excited for it as we have been making it! Here I will be detailing additions, changes, and bug fixes that have come in patch 9.0.0! Four New Realms! The first new exciting bit of information is the inclusion of four, count ‘em, four, New zones for role play and exploration! Each of these new zones has a wealth of new areas as well as plenty of opportunities for users to expand using the new Unofficial Lore option! WiP Map: Long Guo - On The Path of Harmony Long Guo, loosely translated as Dragon Country, is a sprawling and beautiful landscape filled with both the exotic and familiar! From small, quaint towns, to a beautiful capital city, to an awe inspiring city amongst the clouds, Long Guo has a little bit of everything for everypony! Long Guo Locations: Huangjing - Heart of the Dragon Kingdom: The capital of Long Guo! A gorgeous, sprawling city that serves as the seat of power for the Empire of Long Guo! The city also plays host to Long Guo’s most prestigious school, The Imperial Academy For Magical Study, as well as The Imperial Watch. Long Kong - Star of the East: If ever there was a melting pot of the east and west, Long Kong is it! Despite being among the newer cities in Long Guo, the city bustles and grows with each passing and brings in trade and tourism alike! Springblossom Town - Home to Nature’s Bounty: Proving that big things really do come in small packages, the tiny little town of Springblossom brings to the table one of Long Guo’s most beautiful wonders that only comes from there, Shimmersilk! Fenghuang Valley - A Sanctuary of Enlightenment: A wonder of balance in nature, it’s little surprise that the ascetic monks of the Harmonious Path have chosen this area as their home to find balance, inner peace, and expand their being—mind, body, and soul. Lake Huahuo - Sacred Lake of the Elder Serpents: Nestled high, high in the mountain range known as the Ancient’s Abode this lake, named after the founders of the Long Guo Empire, is a breathtaking site to those who can make the treacherous climb through the mountains and brave the storms that the Serpent Dragons that keep watch over the lake create to keep the unworthy away. Longri-La - Paradise Amongst The Clouds: Looming at the peak of Mount Suncrest, the tallest mountain in the world, Longri-La is a beautiful and peaceful cloud city of the Serpent Dragons, as well as home to The Serpent King and the Serpent Council, the leaders of the Long. Mount Faba - Tomb of the Tyrant King: The final resting place of the tyrannical King Faba, self-proclaimed ‘God of Order’, Mount Faba is filled with dangerous traps, mysterious messages, and hundreds of monstrous terracotta statues! What mysteries could lie in the depths of this wicked dragon’s tomb? ____________________________________________________________________________ Neighpon - Empire of the Eastern Seas Situated between Long Guo and Equestria, Neighpon is a string of islands that range from habitats for mystical creatures, quiet traditionalist villages, magictech cities, and of course, ninjas and samurai! Neighpon Locations: Kyoma - A Symbol of Heritage: A place of tradition, the capital city of Neighpon stands upon the plains (one of the few in the country!) of the island of Horshu. Having survived invasions of kaiju, warring clans, earthquakes, and the eruption of Mount Kaminichi, Neighpon as stood the test of time! And after the devastation wrought by Viking Caribou ravaged the land, the First Shogun of Neighpon united the land, allowing the city to rise time and again like a majestic phoenix. Polohama - A Spectacle of Progress: Lights, glamour, and magitech abound in the city of Polohama! Standing as both Neighpon’s most populated and most advanced city, Polohama is a haven of new! Ensorcelled billboards, magley trains, Goremu, and of course Neighponese Idols! There’s rarely a dull moment in the bustling city, so if you like things busy and bright, Polohama is for you! Mount Kaminichi - The Mountain of Purity: A mystical volcano that dominates much of the island of Horshu. Many Neighponese venerate the mountain which has inspired art in its many forms! But a great many mysteries surround the mountain and its nearby woods, the Forest of the Forsaken. Disappearances, mystical imbuements, strange visions. What will you see in the smoke of the mountain? And will you make it back to tell the tale? Ryushima - Where The Dragon’s Blood Runs Strong: Founded centuries ago by qilin and longma, regionally known as kirin and ryuma respectively, who did not wish to live under the rule of the new Long Guo Empire, Ryushima today is a quaint and quiet collection of villages and ports, mostly unassuming and plain. But if one looks hard enough, you may be able to catch sight of one of the few ninja clans that still operate on the island as mercenaries for hire! Dosanko - Bastion of the Homeland: Settled northwest of Neighpon’s home islands, Dosanko a cold and harsh island with even colder winters. For the most part, fishing is the main livelihood of the island, but it is also home to a significant military presence, due to its close proximity to Whitescar. From here the Neighponese Military can swiftly leap to action against any Viking Caribou threats. Poninawa - Mystical Friendships Beckon: Not as traditionalist as Ryushima, but not as technological as Polohama, Poninawa strikes a balance between the nature of their forested island and the bare necessities of some magitech. The reason for this may not be apparent to the average traveler, but one meeting with the mystical Yokai will show you why it’s best to not have anything too magically reliant on the island! ____________________________________________________________________________ Polyneighsia - Domain of a Thousand Islands Laying to Long Guo’s southwest, this region is a collection of hundreds of islands! Some inhabited and some very, very wild! Wingapore - The Sovereign Island: Wingapore is a beautiful city state with black sand beaches and tropical rain forests! A hustling and bustling attraction for both tourists and trade alike with imports and exports from Long Guo, Hesperia, Neighpon, and beyond! The Fillyphines - Islands of Plenty: The most populated chain of islands in Polyneighsia, the Fillyphines are filled with rich ancient history, trade, delicious foods, and rumours of mysterious creatures! Great for those who want a getaway or an adventure! Stottinsberg Islands - Slave Islands: The islands of Hidzume and Shiza are volcanic islands, home to the native Polyneighsian deer population. As well as the rebel caribou slavers that keep them under iron-hoofed rule. Though the Caribou’s Highking has banned slavery, the caribou here scoff at his wishes and refuse to change. Rumours circulate about escaped slaves who are looking for aid to free their friends and their islands. Perhaps some willing adventurers can help! Neighoa-Iti - Isle of Enchantment: A small and mostly empty island with a tiny population, Neighoa-Iti has several strange qualities about it. Such as beautiful forests that glow at night, fruit that affects the minds of those who dine upon it, and pools of water that is rumoured to slow the aging process of any who drink it. (Neighoa-Iti will be released in a content patch in the following days) The Mareaes - Isle of Idols: Despite being the locations of both the start and end of the Long Guo-Neighpon war, over all the Mareaes islands are rather non-descript. The part that draws tourists the most are the massive Mareaes Idols. Large carved stone statues depicting pones, qilins, longma, and more. So old are these statues that none living today know where they came from or how they were made! (The Mareaes will be released in a content patch in the following days) Tailiti - The Island of Beauty: Easily one of the most beautiful islands in Polyneighsia, Tailiti is the premier tourist destination for wealthy and influential ponies from all around the world! With gorgeous beaches, a serene atmosphere, and a wonderful view from the nearby dormant volcano, it’s little wonder that visiting Tailiti is on the bucket list for many. (Tailiti will be released in a content patch in the following days) Scoltra Islands - Lands of Resource: Filled with many natural resources, the Scoltra Islands were a prime target during Neighpon’s colonization efforts. Despite the resistance, the ancient Scoltra Alliance was brought to heel. Even today as a rebellious as they can be Scoltra proves to be pivotal to Neighpon, with its many factories, mines, and fields. (Scoltra Islands will be released in a content patch in the following days) Ironwreck Island - Tonnes of ‘Fun’: Easily Polyneighsia’s most dangerous island. Ironwreck isn’t just home to numerous sunken vessels that dot the oceanbed around it, but also plays host to numerous giant beasts known in Neighpon as Kaiju! These vicious beasts keep all but the most foolhardy adventurers away and have been known to seek vengeance on islanders who disturb them. But rumours still persist of friendly beasts the lay on the island too. Will you be able to confirm these rumours? Or will you be the next course on the menu? ____________________________________________________________________________ Hesperia - A Land Without Rules Founded long ago by Aquellia’s long range colonization efforts, Hesperia is a harsh and dangerous land filled with outlaws, poisonous creatures, gigantic rocs, and many nasty beasts. Even the waters aren’t safe, being filled with large jellyfish, ponyeating sharks, and monstrous krakens. Hersperia is not a land for the faint of heart, but for those who like their travels filled with thrills and their laws...lacking. Airbourne - (Information on Airbourne will be released in a content patch at a later date) Waterhole - (Information on Waterhole will be released in a content patch at a later date) ____________________________________________________________________________ New Equestria Locale!: Melodia - Jewel of the Eastern Sea Situated on the eastern coast of Equestria sits a little unassuming seaside village! With quaint shacks and a nice little market by the shore with plenty of friendly faces. Beneath the waves though, lay an awe inspiring wonder of a city, Melodia the home of the sirens! ____________________________________________________________________________ Four New Races!: To go along with all of our new locations, we are also adding four new Officially Sanctioned Races to our World of Equestria Lineup! Qilin - Mystical as the Moon: One of the two races collectively known as the Long Sun. Qilin, also known as Kirin in Neighpon, are a race of draconic ponies who are gifted with dragon breath like magics! With patches of scales across their bodies, as well as underbelly scales, it’s no wonder that the anterled Qilin are sometimes called ‘dragon ponies’. Longma - Spirited as the Sun: The other member of the races known collectively as the Long Sun. Longma, or Ryuma in Neighpon, are winged ponies with dragon like traits, such as scales across their bodies and where a pegasus’ down would be, varying curved horns, and access to breath magic! Serpent Dragons - The Ancient and Wise: Known to many as the Long, Ryu in Neighpon, Serpent Dragons are a race of beautiful, majestic, and powerful dragons capable of great breath magic, breathing underwater, flight without wings, and their ancient art of pearlcraft. This race of dragons, for which the country of Long Guo is named after, is truly a sight to behold. Sirens - Musicians of the Deep: One of the aquatic races of the deep, Sirens are renowned for their magical, beautiful, and sometimes alluring singing voices. But don’t let old mares tales fool you! Sirens aren’t all wicked songstresses leading sailors to their doom. Just like the land bound cousins they visit, they can be as varied as anypony else! ____________________________________________________________________________ We here can’t wait to see what you, the players, can do with this wealth of new content! Not to mention how eager we are to see what you can do with both the new Unofficial Lore option, as well as our new AU Section: The Multiverse for alternate takes on the world at large! As always, we’re dedicated to bringing you the best experience we possibly can! If you have any questions, concerns, or comments please feel free to message us! And feel free to stay tuned after the break for a list of ‘bug fixes’! ____________________________________________________________________________ Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where Princess Celestia would sometimes be erroneously listed as ‘Best Princess’ in some situations. Fixed an issue where Flash Sentry would sometimes end up shipped with Twilight Sparkle. Sorry for the inconvenience. Buffed the magical output for The Great and Powerful Trixie, she should now correctly be able to out magic anypony who gets in her path. Fixed those holes in the changelings. Get it? Bug fixes. Reinstated Pluto as a plant. Finally finished reticulating splines. Removed Ponybrine. Fixed an issue where Robikku remained undrowned for longer than an hour. Finally put that thing back where it came from. Added Guinea Pigs as supreme overlords of Equestria. Removed Guinea Pigs as supreme overlords of Equestria. Re-leashed the Kraken, future unleashings should happen far less often. Pinkie Pie’s ‘Fourth Wall’ breaking capabilities have been increased. She can now see you. Right this instant. She thinks you’re silly.

I uh...mm. Well. I'll just uh. Leave this here. Enjoy.

Hello everypony! Friendly neighborhood Dubstep here once again to elucidate the matter of our wonderful new section here, the Multiverse! Now some of you may be familiar with the concept of Alternate Universes and that’s great! But for those of you who don’t know, or need a refresher, let me explain a little bit! Alternate Universes, also know as AUs or sometimes Alternate Timelines, are exactly what they sound like on the tin! They are a version of any given universe where something is different! A good example of AUs would be the various different Earths in Marvel or DC comics! Be it something as simple as everyone is green, or something as major as everyone’s a giant! Every difference is an example of an AU. In this forum, you too can create your own AUs for players to enjoy! Have you ever wanted to make a universe where Celestia was banished instead? How about one where the Elements of Harmony took the form of giant robots instead of magical necklaces? Now you can! The first thing you should always do, as with anything creatively on the site, is to make sure you follow our general rules and guidelines! Just because some things are different here, doesn’t mean that the other rules aren’t in effect! If you have a question or concern, as always we are here to help! If you’re interested in making an AU, there are some questions you should ask yourself first! Is this really an AU or is it a Crossover? Sometimes the lines aren’t so clear between these two. The general rule of thumb is, Concepts taken from a series without involving things such as Names, Places, or Characters is an AU. If your AU involves these things, it is a Crossover instead and should be placed into the Crossover section of FFA instead. For all intents and purposes, Past and Future timelines are considered AUs. What’s the big difference that makes it interesting? Sure, you could make a universe where everyone is purple, speaks Spanish, and dances the hula. But is it interesting? Would someone really want to play there? Make your universe interesting, fresh! Introduce new concepts, new characters that don’t exist in the main timelines! Spice things up a bit! You don’t have to make things super complicated if you don’t want, you don’t have to make things too simple if you don’t want, the choices are endless! What are the rules for the AU? As author of your AU, you are more than welcome to set up guidelines and rules for your Universe! Want OC Alicorns or Draconequui (Yep, you can have those in your AU!)? Make a note of it in your opening post! Want there to be a limit on how many of a certain race are around? Make a note of it! As Captain Planet says, the power is yours! With this in mind though, be respectful! It may be your universe, but it’s everyone’s forum. If someone wants to bring in a character that doesn’t fit, politely explain to them why. They’re more than welcome to create their own universe that’s similar if they really want to. Once you’re ready to dip your hooves (or claws, or paws, or other appendages) into the pool of Universecraft, you can make a thread here with the name of your Universe! This will be the OOC area for your AU. The Opening Post should be clear on what makes this universe different from the Main Timeline, as well as any rules that you want. As a personal recommendation, I would have a handful of sections in your opening post, such as but not limited to: Name of the Universe. A summary of the Universe A list of notable characters that are new or are different from their mainline counterparts. A section for updates as roleplay within the universe continues. A list of suggested ‘roles’ that someone might play to best fit in. In the title, note if the AU is Open for anyone to play or Closed. If an AU is open, keep in mind that people may deviate from your original design. This is perfectly fine, universes are never static. But if something truly bothers you, be civil and discuss your concerns with the user. With these things in mind, I’m sure you’ll have no trouble building great universes filled with even greater stories and amazing characters! As an example opening post. This won’t be the most detailed example, but should be enough to give you a general idea! And feel free to put your opening post in your own style! Equestria Girls [Open] The Equestria Girls universe is set in a world where your usual pony characters are human, though with skin tint that matches their pony counterpart’s pelts. The greatest differences is the lack of most magic. The general setting focuses on the slice of life antics of high school! Notable Characters Principal Celestia: Instead of being a Princess, the Celestia here is Principal of Canterlot High!Vice Principal Luna: By Principal Celestia’s side is her sister, Vice Principal Luna! Important Updates Date/Goes/Here - A new student has arrived! Her name is Twilight Sparkle! Date/Goes/Here - Twilight Sparkle wins the crown! Rules - Please Read No Ponies! If you’re playing here you’ve got to be human! Even if somehow your pony self from Equestria found a weird mirror or something! That goes for griffons, diamond dogs, or others too! Low Magic! Try to keep magical items to a bare minimum, it’s best to have those the focus of a large group event!

Every difference is an example of an AU. In this forum, you too can create your own AUs for players to enjoy! Have you ever wanted to make a universe where Celestia was banished instead? How about one where the Elements of Harmony took the form of giant robots instead of magical necklaces? Now you can! The first thing you should always do, as with anything creatively on the site, is to make sure you follow our general rules and guidelines! Just because some things are different here, doesn’t mean that the other rules aren’t in effect! If you have a question or concern, as always we are here to help! If you’re interested in making an AU, there are some questions you should ask yourself first! Is this really an AU or is it a Crossover? Sometimes the lines aren’t so clear between these two. The general rule of thumb is, Concepts taken from a series without involving things such as Names, Places, or Characters is an AU. If your AU involves these things, it is a Crossover instead and should be placed into the Crossover section of FFA instead. For all intents and purposes, Past and Future timelines are considered AUs. What’s the big difference that makes it interesting? Sure, you could make a universe where everyone is purple, speaks Spanish, and dances the hula. But is it interesting? Would someone really want to play there? Make your universe interesting, fresh! Introduce new concepts, new characters that don’t exist in the main timelines! Spice things up a bit! You don’t have to make things super complicated if you don’t want, you don’t have to make things too simple if you don’t want, the choices are endless! What are the rules for the AU? As author of your AU, you are more than welcome to set up guidelines and rules for your Universe! Want OC Alicorns or Draconequui (Yep, you can have those in your AU!)? Make a note of it in your opening post! Want there to be a limit on how many of a certain race are around? Make a note of it! As Captain Planet says, the power is yours! With this in mind though, be respectful! It may be your universe, but it’s everyone’s forum. If someone wants to bring in a character that doesn’t fit, politely explain to them why. They’re more than welcome to create their own universe that’s similar if they really want to. Once you’re ready to dip your hooves (or claws, or paws, or other appendages) into the pool of Universecraft, you can make a thread here with the name of your Universe! This will be the OOC area for your AU. The Opening Post should be clear on what makes this universe different from the Main Timeline, as well as any rules that you want. As a personal recommendation, I would have a handful of sections in your opening post, such as but not limited to: Name of the Universe. A summary of the Universe A list of notable characters that are new or are different from their mainline counterparts. A section for updates as roleplay within the universe continues. A list of suggested ‘roles’ that someone might play to best fit in. In the title, note if the AU is Open for anyone to play or Closed. If an AU is open, keep in mind that people may deviate from your original design. This is perfectly fine, universes are never static. But if something truly bothers you, be civil and discuss your concerns with the user. With these things in mind, I’m sure you’ll have no trouble building great universes filled with even greater stories and amazing characters! As an example opening post. This won’t be the most detailed example, but should be enough to give you a general idea! And feel free to put your opening post in your own style! Equestria Girls [Open] The Equestria Girls universe is set in a world where your usual pony characters are human, though with skin tint that matches their pony counterpart’s pelts. The greatest differences is the lack of most magic. The general setting focuses on the slice of life antics of high school! Notable Characters Principal Celestia: Instead of being a Princess, the Celestia here is Principal of Canterlot High!Vice Principal Luna: By Principal Celestia’s side is her sister, Vice Principal Luna! Important Updates Date/Goes/Here - A new student has arrived! Her name is Twilight Sparkle! Date/Goes/Here - Twilight Sparkle wins the crown! Rules - Please Read No Ponies! If you’re playing here you’ve got to be human! Even if somehow your pony self from Equestria found a weird mirror or something! That goes for griffons, diamond dogs, or others too! Low Magic! Try to keep magical items to a bare minimum, it’s best to have those the focus of a large group event!

So, this is a song that I tend to listen to when I'm feeling down, it's a really good pick me up song!

Now we have a cover of the theme belonging to Mother of the Year! (If you know the song. You know.)

I seem to be really good at forgetting to do this sometimes <.< Well, you get another twofer day!

Y'know! I could probably start presenting these without saying anything! Ah well, hope at least some are enjoying it!

Oh pish tosh. The answer to 14 is however many are presented to her, and in whatever flavour they're baked. Celestia is an equal opportunity cakeketeer.

This is one of those songs that tends to get stuck in my head really easily...so now it can get stuck in YOURS too!

Hello everypony! Friendly neighborhood Dubstep here! As you know, the doors of Lore have been thrown open! Carefully as to not fling them off the hinges though. So players like YOU, yes YOU! Can write your own Lore! Now you may be asking, Dub, what’s the difference between the Lore written here, and the Lore you can find elsewhere on the site? Official Sanctioned Lore affects the site as a whole, things that appear on the map, such as Equestria, Aquellia, and Long Guo for example. These are things that are consistent through all RPs (Unless an AU shows otherwise). The Lore created here is on a by choice basis, if you like something another user has written, feel free to incorporate it into your own RP! You’re not bound nor forced to use any of the Lore found herein. To help you along the path to Lore Enlightenment, I’m here to give you a few tips, tricks, and guidelines on how to best make your own addition to the ever growing World of Equestria! First and foremost, your lore should NOT contradict established Official Sanctioned Lore or Show Canonical Lore, unless it is explicitly stated that it is for use in an Alternate Universe (AU) setting or for Free For All (FFA). With that in mind, be sure to not try to skirt around the edge of what’s ‘acceptable’. If you’re concerned if your Lore might contradict something, then feel free to bring your questions to us! Your Lore should be presented in a style that is both pleasing to look at and gets the point across. Make something that catches someone’s eye! Something that someone will say ‘Hey, I like this, I want to use this in my OWN RPs!’ And while there’s no hard fast rule for how you make your Lore entry look, there are ways to spruce them up! Having the title of your Lore in large font and centered at the top of the document. Proper grammar, punctuation, spelling, and paragraphing. Quote attribution as seen in Official Sanctioned Lore is also an option. If you’re considering making some Lore, or have already made some Lore in your own threads and want to have it down in more detailed writing, you’ve come to the right place! Or should I say, the WRITE place! Ahem. If you’re not sure, however, where to get started, or if your Lore is good enough, ask yourself some helpful questions. Is this something that could fit in WoE? An AU? FFA? Is this something that others would be interested in? Do not let this question be your roadblock, just because you may not think someone else would find it interesting, you would be surprised to find how many may like it! Does this enrich the environment for which I have written it and does it make for interesting RP? If a Magical Artefact Is it overpowered? If overpowered, does it have a fair trade off for its use? Is it one of a kind, or are there possibly more out there? Who made it and why? Could somepony else make it if they tried? What sort of things can it do? Are there uses for it beyond the obvious? Where is it found? In a museum? Lost in a jungle? The attic of an eccentric collector? If a Location Is this town/city/village/etc. already done? Is there one similar to it elsewhere? If there’s a location similar to it, what does this location bring to the table that makes it unique from the other? Does it make sense for it to be where it is? Who founded the location, and for what purpose? What are some of the amenities found here? What is the general look and layout of the location? What can make somepony interested in visiting this location? If a Tribe Where does this tribe live? Where did the tribe come from, did they splinter from another tribe? Have they been around since ‘ancient’ times? What are some of the tribe’s beliefs and rituals? Are they primitive in nature? Are they more advance? If a Group or Organization Where do they operate? Do they have more than one base? Why was the group founded? Are they secretive or open? Do they take any members freely, or is there a test involved? What does the group do? What is the hierarchy of the group? Is it ruled by a leader? Is it democratic in nature? There are many more questions that you can ask yourself as you go through this writing process! But remember, you’re not alone, you have a wealth of help from your fellow users on the site, as well as the staff. Should you need assistance, just yelp for help!

Now, I can't claim to be the biggest country music fan in the world. But some of the older country music that I grew up around is sentimental to me. I used to hear this song a lot as a kid, and my mom still listens to it now and again!

So, I missed a day because I'm a derp! So you get a twofer today!

And now for a song that needs no introduction!...Other than this one here...ahem...

Many know Dan Avidan as Not So Grump, and Danny Sexbang of Ninja Sex Party and Star Bomb! Though not as many know of the band he had before, Skyhill, which was more akin to a "serious" band! It's pretty good stuff, and this was a recent release when Danny got back in touch with the other member of Skyhill, so enjoy!

Now for one that I heard enough on Pandora to actually memorize the lyrics to!

Now for something that's like a blast from the past (90s~) but from modern times. I always dug MB20, so it's good to know they still are making music!~
