  1. Sonic Rainboom is easily the more popular choice, and I can understand. I must admit I almost squealed like a small child when Rainbow Dash up set a new standard of being a BAMF by saving her friends and winning the competition. I would wholeheartedly go for it if it wasn't for Rarity's dragqueen outfit ruining any attraction I had for her. Seriously, that just killed me seeing her like that.

    I'm for Party of One on the basis that Pinkie Pie is the most enjoyable psychologically unstable character I have ever seen, and I find her antics just adorable, though not in the same way I find everything Fluttershy does as adorable.

  2. The earliest games I can recall playing are the Commander Keen episodes on PC. Lovely little shareware platformer controlling an 8 year old boy with a ray-gun and a pogo stick.

    I rarely played without cheats enabled so that I could powerfinish stages.

    OMG COMMANDER KEEN YES 8D

    I remember playing the Keen Dreams one where you fight evil fruit and veggies in your attempt to take down the evil King Potato.

    The most prominent episode I remember is Aliens Ate My Babysitter, which I think is the only one I ever played through completely.

    tbh I don't think I played the games past the age of 6 or 7, not sure why. I do remember getting the GBC game for christmas one year much to my chagrin, though I don't know why I ever lost interest.

  3. I've known about the show for a few months from users on other forums, but had never got around to watching it. I was sick yesterday, so I had some free time and watched the first episode. And then I had watched all the episodes.

    And then I was a brony.

  4. Your story sounds like my own from my attempted inductions in to forums past. I'd have to say that this community has been a much easier one to assimilate myself into.

    I'm not sure if it's the ever present positive attitude, or our love of ponies, but I have a feeling I'll be on this forum for a good span.

  5. Hey, Wire, I'd have to agree that the animation was also a big factor for my conversion. It brings back the nostalgia of when I used to roam the pastures of albinoblacksheep and newgrounds, without the occasional disappointment of independent creators.

    I myself have a few original pony ideas that I hope to bring to light; I hope to see yours too as well.

    Hi-dee-hi! Welcome to the herd. I've been looking into indie music myself, but I'm not sure what exactly to look into. Could I ask of you about your favorite bands?

    Considering there are the same genres with the indie tag as there are genres without, I'll give you some of my favorite albums.

    Zonoscope - Cut Copy, A feel of the 80's without the implying overplayed rock music. This electronica album displays great transition, and should be played start to finish to get the best effect. Suggested track:

    The Suburbs - Arcade Fire, Rock at it's finest, reminiscent of their debut album with feeling and sound, but older. Displaying orchestral sound and effort, this album is a must. Suggested track: We Used To Wait

    Tourist History - Two Door Cinema Club, A promising debut of pop, but not much in the likes of variety. These songs are better when thrown into a shuffle list, or hear one at a time in moderation. Suggested track:

    Clinging To A Scheme - The Radio Dept., An amazing, mellow pop/shoegaze experience. Highlights of the album are easily understood on first play. Suggested track:

    So Many Nights - The Cat Empire Wikipedia lists their genres as Rock, Ska, Jazz, Latin, Reggae, and Alternative Rock. Possibly their best album that displays elements of said areas from their transition from first album to latest. Suggested track: Til The Ocean Takes Us Home

    My primary interests are vaguely noticable, but I have many other favorites.

    So I was lurking on a pony forum, listening to my iPod, Murder from Jekyll and Hyde happened to be playing when I clicked on this thread. I laughed when your Scootaloo avatar happened to be singing along. heh

    Good, good, the plan is coming together nicely.

  7. Thank you, everypony. I first heard about MLP back a few months ago when some people on a chat were going on about it. Since then, I hadn't got around to watching it till now. I found out about your site yesterday while I was on a rampage to find out all that I could about MLP:FIM, through wikis and fan sites, and your forum came up at one point.

    I don't play any instruments btw.

  8. I had some free time today due to being sick, so I decided to check out the first episode of MLP:FIM. Afterwards, I downloaded the whole season and watched it while stuffed up in my room. Before long, I had watched every episode.

    I was blown away at the quality and enjoyability of a show that seems to reach out for a demographic I was not part of. I'm sure Lauren Faust had no intention of the young male adult developing an interest, but from what I've gathered she's nonetheless proud of her work.

    Brethren, today I have officially become a Brony.

    As for other non-pony qualities, I am a recent highschool graduate, still working to get my metaphorical cutie mark. I am yet to find what I hope to do in life, though I do have some hobbies.

    I am a graphic designer of 3 years using Paint.NET, mostly making avatars, signatures, and banners for fellow forum users. I am also currently investing time into learning HTML and working on my first website. Also, I am an origami enthusiast of 11 years, folding in many topics, but favoring geometrical origami. And I once wrote a satirical review for a mediocre video game and was met with good reception, which, I did enjoy writing, but it took up a lot of my time and I'm not sure if I can devote another 6 hours to another measly 1000 words.

    As for media, I don't watch much television or many movies, but I do enjoy the occasional sci-fi, such as Star Trek, Doctor Who, or whatever they show on SyFy these days. I have musical interests encompassing many genres in the indie domain, though saying I enjoy "indie" music would be like saying I saying I enjoy blue ponies because they are not red.

    I'm glad to become a part of a community of fellow meus-brevis-equinologists(latin help pls).
