  1. Sure; I have a few leaked versions that I will upload soon. Also, sorry I haven't been updating this post - if anyone wants anything updated, I can do so.
  2. Put the Tor Browser Bundle on a flash drive; they can't ever stop you then unless they are far more tech savvy than any parents I know. Still, it's technically impossible to completely block Tor without unplugging the internet as long as you know what is restricted, cuz Tor can work around anything with a bit of technical knowledge and input.
  3. Just as a backup, I will be keeping this thread here... I might soon make a site of some kind dedicated to it for ease of use. Anything else been deleted that I've missed lately?
  4. Definitely worth it. An emotional rollercoaster ride not afraid to tackle huge real world and personal issues, despite being a fanfic. Some of the best characterization I have ever read in any book, including published ones. A story that builds until it reaches startlingly epic proportions and the fate of the world hangs in the balance. On the flip side, a lot of potentially objectionable content, including tons of language, disturbingly detailed violence, and (if you read Chapter 20.5, which is canon but not included in most postings of the main story but is included in all printed copies) a semi-graphic sex scene. None of this comes close to bothering me, as it is all for a very definite purpose and not attempting to be offensive for the sake of being offensive, but I know some people take objection to it. As I said before, one of my favorite books of ALL time, but beware the length, as you will get sucked in. Definitely deserves at least one read if you have the time, though, regardless of your knowledge of Fallout (none is necessary). EDIT: Also, full soundtrack here: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE7D1054465810EE3
  5. This is one of the best stories I have ever read, let alone fanfics. And not only does Kkat make no profit at all off of this, but Hasbro has no plans for publishing anything similar, thus they will not take it down. Also fair use (maybe?). EDIT: Also, it would be amazing if Dr. Dissonance were to release CDs of the soundtrack for Fallout: Equestria through CreateSpace. Maybe I will message him on Youtube.
  6. Placed an order for the first volume...we will see how it goes. I plan on posting a video or some sort of review when I receive it on Wednesday. ------------------------------------------------- Just got my book today, and the quality is very good. It looks very professional. The one problem that I have with it is the fact that the original, unrevised text was used for these printings, and thus a couple of typos appear. Nothing too horrible is wrong with the book, and it is a very nice hard cop of one of the finest fics ever written. Bottom Line: Buy it. It is ridiculously cheap for the quality.
  7. So, I know Past Sins and Fallout: Equestria have gotten prints, but has any other amazing pony fan fiction been made into a physical format? (/mlp/'s clop doesn't count) I would pay money for a physical copy of Background Pony for sure, and maybe a few other works. By the way, if you haven't heard, 3/5 volumes of Fallout: Equestria in softcover are available on Amazon for ~$8 per volume + Prime/super saver shipping. The other 2 will be released soon. I get my copy of the first volume tomorrow. I would love to contribute money towards awesome community members and get some physical merch in the process, so if printed fanfics are available, I would love to buy them (assuming quality). By the way, writers should really start using CreateSpace, cuz it's awesome and way cheaper than other printing methods, plus it's on demand. That's what the softcover print of FoE is using.
  8. Possibly, but later. Working on internship applications and scholarship renewal/application. I will continue to update this thread regardless. Let me know what else I should archive.
  9. What is the link for the Mentally Advanced Ep. 11? It isn't on the playlist...currently downloading Ep. 1, though. Should have most of those episodes uploaded by the end of the day. EDIT: Aaaaannd...thread revision. New links in the original post. UPDATE: Most of the Mentally Advanced Series that isn't available in the US has been uploaded. Let me know if I forgot anything; I am currently downloading Episode 12 to upload since it seems to be missing from the US Youtube. EDIT 2: Whoops...didn't realize Episode 11 didn't exist.
  10. I'll get on that FiMFlamFilosophy and The Mentally Advanced Series as soon as I get some sleep. Good to know some people are using the downloads. Feel free to spread the links around. Probably will update the thread title to just "Pony Archive" as well to indicate that I am archiving more than just FiW.
  11. Considering Feld0 brohoofed my comment on the news thread, I don't think it will be locked. Let me know if I forgot anything. q
  12. This thread is for the archiving of Pony-related fan works that have been removed from Youtube, etc. by Hasbro. Currently, the entire Friendship is Witchcraft series as well as the deleted MLP Online demo are archived here. Everything is uploaded in the highest available quality. Due to the large size of some videos, downloads may be in multiple parts. A program such as the freeware 7-Zip is required to open these multi-part files. Note: I do not own any of these videos. The copyright is owned by the original creators, and, if video from FiM is used, Hasbro. The official site of Friendship is Witchcraft can be found at http://sherclop.com/ Master Link (Folder with All Pony Stuff) Currently Uploading: none Table of Contents: SherclopPones (Friendship is Witchcraft) FiMFlamFilosophy (The Mentally Advanced Series and Rainbow Dash Presents) Pony-related Games (MLP Online demo)
  13. Care to give us more information about this fanfic before we say yes? I would probably read it eventually; I'm a fast enough reader. I couldn't guarantee extremely quick results, but I would get you feedback.
  14. This is a concept based on an idea I had years ago that I just found a rough draft of in a stack of papers. Read below if you are interested, but the spoilers are real spoilers, so you've been warned. How far I get with the actual story will be determined by the interest that people here show, although I will have way too much time on my hands this summer, so I may continue it regardless. Be warned that the spoilers are very much spoilers, so don't read them if you don't want to know. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Demons occupy another dimension. Demons exist in a sort of larval form in which they shapeshift in order to frighten people and draw positive energy out of their bodies. These larval demons inhabit a school or academy until they find their masters. The frightening/drawing out energy serves a dual purpose: in addition to providing a demon with sustenance, it enables him or her to find a master: upon coming into physical contact with their future master, their body will react and transform into their true form (which looks near-human). Upon discovering their true master, demons return to the academy or school with their masters. Humans almost always have no knowledge of demons and magic and thus new masters must be taught from scratch. The protagonist is a girl who has been secluded from regular human life for the entirety of her existence because Despite being home to mostly demons, the humans of the demon world are much more powerful in general than the demons and have regulated demons to the position of animals. This unfair treatment is a huge surprise to the protagonist, who resists this treatment for her own partner with every action. The story is a social commentary on the evils of racism, sexism, and prejudice of all kinds. ---------------------------------------------------------------- So let me know what you think and I will get to writing the actual story soon enough.
  15. Because of FiM, I recently started wondering if there are any other good animated shows outside of the REALLY mainstream stuff (Family Guy, etc.) that I have missed due to being outside of their target audience as well as not watching TV at all. Are there any other shows that deserve recognition like FiM got but didn't get any?
  16. I'll have a full chapter up soon, just need some time to finish it. Had the idea pop into my head today and had to get something down on paper as soon as I could. Trust me when I say it won't be a typical "War of the Worlds" style story.
  17. This is just a preview to gauge interest in the story, since I've never really shown many others my writing before. This story is kinda like The Walking Dead mixed with War of the Worlds so far (at least in my head). I have the prologue ready for you, but it is VERY short (only a few sentences) and is just to give you a taste. Please give me feedback and let me know if it hooked you/you want more. The plan is to have sort of a alien invasion and underground resistance, but the enemy is something like over 100 times as powerful as the aliens in War of the Worlds (you will get an idea in the prologue). Survival is a huge focus as well as figuring out how to kill the aliens, or even (initially) what they are. There's my concept, and here's my story. I hope it isn't too terrible
  18. No idea if this is old, but when I went to Family Video yesterday, they were giving out "Swarm of the Century" themed FiM coloring sheets. The sheets had a cute pic of Fluttershy with parasprites on them and said "Swarm of the Century" at the bottom. I'll upload high-res scans of one if this is not old news. And I am sorry if this is really old and I just didn't know it, but it's new at least for my area. EDIT: Scan here: FamilyVideoSwarm.pdf
  19. Expanded universe Chief would easily beat Kratos, but the Chief from the games with their imposed limitations (for balance and playability purposes, of course) would get destroyed. Expanded universe chief is about as strong as in-game Kratos, and is also significantly faster not only in running speed but also in reflex speed (Bullet-dodging fast). There's a reason that in the books, Spartans (Halo) don't die unless snuck up on or sacrificing themselves while destroying a miles-long ship. Also, Gravity Hammers won't kill Spartans instantly in the books. Energy Swords aren't an instant kill either (books), but a severe wound can disable a Spartan enough to be vulnerable. Also, Marcus Fenix is from a much earlier (in time relative to now) alternate universe, therefore he isn't technologically augmented to the degree of Master Chief and it wouldn't even close to be a fair fight.
  20. Thanks. It would be awesome if there were a couple of other bronies in the audience if I decide to mention the fandom.
  21. I am going to be speaking at the National Boys and Girls Club (Leadership?) Conference later this month about "establishing your personal online brand." I had a bit of internet-related legal and school trouble almost a year ago and after hearing my story, I was invited to be a guest speaker. I was just curious if anyone else is going to be there; it would be nice to see a couple fellow bronies outside of my circle of friends. I may even give a shoutout during my introduction. My speech will be on their website as far as I know, so if I do give a shoutout, you will know. We could meet up sometime that weekend if you have free time? Reply to this (or send me a private message if you don't want others to know that you'll be there) if you are interested.
  22. Sorry about not updating...making a Fluttershy one for my girlfriend soon, so I'll post pix. Also, the ears are very badly wrong on that sketch, sorry. Imma delete it because of that. Not sure if I will be doing commissions yet; I'll let you know. The Fluttershy one WILL have a cutie mark. Probly won't be making one myself for a couple weeks cuz my Mom got mad at me for going out and buying the Friendship Express DVD and an RD figure...I'll have enough income to justify it soon enough, though.
  23. Dude...why would you force your daughter to get a pony if she wanted something else and had no interest in ponies? That's basically forcing your passions onto your kids, and if it were anything other than toys (trust me, I've seen some sick stuff on the internet), you could have serious problems. Your actions weren't completely detestable, its just that I've seen others take this further and further (and you DON'T want to know where that went - hint: it had something to do with many years in jail). EDIT: To reply to the topic, I would just tell my parents that I'mma go buy some ponies, then call my brony friends and see if they want to come (I'm lucky, I know - but seriously, introduce your close friends to the show...you may be surprised). And I don't mean to suggest that you (RainbroDash) are doing anything wrong; the strong response comes from the more distasteful corners of the internet that I have visited...not nice places. Sorry if my response offends you, I'm just cautious about stuff like this especially after taking Sociology.
  24. Have you noticed that you can sing "My Heart Will Go On" to this and it fits? EDIT: To add my opinion, I liked it quite a bit...now just to mash those two songs together for fun When you said symphonic metal, that's what I was expecting, but this was plenty good. Did seem a bit like an orchestral remix of "My Heart Will Go On" though. There wasn't much action in the orchestra, and the synth-y drums were a bit out of place (it could be that they aren't supposed to be synth-y and just sound that way, idk), but the lead instruments held it together fairly well.
  25. I feel as if the beat doesn't really complement the rest of the music; it clashes too much. Especially considering the type of instruments that you are using.
