    Who do you think will win the Stanley cup this year, eh?

    Hard to pinpoint a specific moment because it's really been a life-long interest thanks to my father. The earliest memories I have are watching the film 'Battle of Britain' with my family when I was very young. I also had dozens of toys of small, diecast aircraft which I think are kicking around this house somewhere still. So, the interest is largely inherited from my father (who is of the English side of the family), I remember a rather profound quote while watching the Battle of Britain film. In the film, the perspective switches every so often between the British, and the Germans. Since I was rather young I couldn't differentiate the two, leaving me very confused. I eventually asked during the film, "Who are the good guys, dad?" I recall his response being something along the lines of, "There are no good guys or bad guys in war." Right now, it'd have to be Silver Marcato. Overall however, Zoop. Yes, only if you can withstand not being noticed. No duplicate questions, please! xP

    I can't remember. Ariados and Magnemite come to mind though. None. The mustard is in the pantry, and it's French's. Couldn't tell you. This morning.

    Well, after much conflict and strife I was finally convinced into creating an "Ask" thread. What one can do here is submit a question varying from everyday chit-chat, to personal, to history questions. Anything, really. Variety will surely keep things interesting as I'm hoping this thread will serve as a way for some folks to get to know me at least a little better. Reading my 'About Me' would surely help in stimulating or inspiring questions to ask. I also own an OC, as some may be surprised to know. Feel free to ask questions pertaining to him, but know that I don't roleplay, so there aren't going to be any answers coming from him. Hopefully this thread will prove, much like Zoop's, that I'm not as frightening as I've been told I appear. Without any further ado, ask away.

    After a little bit of discussion, we came to the conclusion that making an all-inclusive “Ask a Staffer” thread would be a great opportunity for members to get to know our team! How it works: Anyone may simply ask a question in here, no matter the subject (so long as it remains appropriate of course) and a random staff member will come around to answer you. The questions can be serious, fun, pertain to certain individual staff members, whatever! All in the name of getting more familiar with our hard-working staff members. There’s no telling who’ll be the one to answer your question, as it will simply be answered by whoever is available at the time. Here is a very handy index of each staffer: https://mlpforums.com/staff/

    Zoop will be murdering him at BronyCon if that's satisfactory enough for you. I recall two or three times while editing the three hours (ugh) worth of film. Honourable mention goes to @Skullbuster at 7:55

    As do I. That way, you can be reprimanded for your heinous crimes. :3

    Coarse language Participants: Marco23p (Player)* Key Gear (Spectator)* Zoop* Chigens Artemis* Lavoaster* Silver Marcato* NewCalamity* Grape Popsicle Guy Feld0* * = This person had a speaking role in the video. Here is a highlight reel of sorts I decided to whip up from Marco's Saturday night stream of The Ship on April the 27/28th! I added captions and subtitles for the more difficult to understand folks and punch-lines. I'd like to thank Marco for hosting the stream as well as everyone who joined in on the fun and the spectators who stuck around with it the whole night. It was a blast! I'd recommend reading briefly on the rules of The Ship if you aren't familiar so you can better understand what exactly is happening. I do hope anyone who watches finds amusement in these shenanigans, and we hope to do this again sometime!

    Nothing ruins the day like adding salt instead of sugar to your tea.

      But not as much salt as one would put sugar. D:

    Do you happen to have a reference sheet of your Oc laying around by any chance? ;)

      I decided I needed some practice and figured you deserved something for all the effort you're putting into the large OC project you've been working on x)

      Oh wow, thank you so much! I'm really, really glad to hear that you like my project. I'll do my best to keep the project running!

       

      Thank you :D

      Do your best to keep that thread updated! I saw the colouring job you posted of the background and was floored! The rest of the staff are also very exicted and amazed by what you're doing for everyone here :)

    This topic concerns an issue of technical or general support. Because of this, it would be best to open a support ticket for it. The ticket system was created to make it easier for members to receive assistance with precisely these sorts of queries. For more information about it, please visit the original announcement thread or the instructional guide thread. Thank you. This is an automatically generated message, by the way.

    , I'm rather fond of your art style, it's quite good. Figure I might as well chip into one of these before my nap. Reference sheet. As far as personality goes, he's largely a representation of myself. If there remain any questions you'd like to ask, please do not hesitate to send a private message my way. Thanks and good luck.

    It is the one belonging to the Jagdtiger, the final subject in the Panzerwaffe entry. She's a big one alright...

    I went through a great conflict with myself whether or not to include a legend or some such thing at the beginning explaining what a few odd looking assortments of numbers and letters meant. Such as when naming a specific cannon as a 128mm PaK 44 L/55, explaining the meaning as: - 128mm refers to the diameter of the round the gun fires - PaK, abbreviation of "panzerabwehrkanone" or "anti-tank gun" in English - 44, refers to the date of production - L/55, "Länge" or "length" in English, referring to the length of the gun in milimetres when you multiply the number designation by the calibre. (128 x 55 = 7040mm in length)
  18. NewCalamity
    Oh goodness you're right! How could I have ever forgotten the video game folk who enjoy explaining why X console or series is better than Y console or series?

    You could say that I don't either. However, a blog is a rather general term as there are all sorts of different blogs of various flavours. Not all of them involve personal rants and photographs of what they ate for lunch. Some do indeed revolve around being informative, engaging, and with an aim to interest the reader, and not bore them with teenage angst and half-eaten sandwiches. Taking the one I've been working on for the past few days now, it's about military history of the Second World War. So far there've been two entries, the first being on der Panzerwaffe and the other focusing on the armour of the Western Allies including Great Britain, France, and the United States. I recommend you give them a scan or two if you've the time and/or interest. (They've got pretty pictures too~)

    Got that one, yup. The first one was uploaded on a Monday and this one came online at around 6:45PM EST. Hmm... Just the luck of the draw I suppose. I've been trying to make these as colourful and beginner-friendly with the pretty pictures and small paragraphs packed with fun-facts
  21. NewCalamity
    You buggered the mention system, I did not receive a notification o; Sadly, it seems my second blog entry received less attention than the first one, alas.
  22. NewCalamity
    Just informing you that I have taken the liberty of merging your thread with an already existing thread covering the very same topic. Do be sure to utilize the site's search function to check whether or not a thread already exists. Thanks.

    Forever and ever.

    It's right there actually. The sixth photograph and paragraph text underneath it.
