  1. They're sold in the vendor hall next to the official con merch.

    The numbers are in the con book; I don't know if they're listed anywhere before the con.

    For what it's worth, here are the figures for this year.

    Also, earlier I said:

    You can also take a photo with them.

    I originally thought it was a bonus alongside an autograph, but it looks like it costs extra.

  2. You get in line, and when it's your turn you give the guest of honor your voucher and whatever it is you want them to sign. You can also take a photo with them. Some guests require more than one voucher for an autograph.

    You can buy autograph vouchers by themselves for $10 each.

    (Note, I've only done this once so some details may be off.)

  3. Update: My car is full, sorry!

    (This same request is on ConRoomies.)

    I plan on leaving Thursday, but the time is flexible. If everyone can leave Thursday morning, that's great. Otherwise, we can leave in the evening. I plan on returning Sunday night (driving overnight until Monday morning).

    I can pick people up near Los Angeles, in Orange County, and in the Inland Empire (as long as it's not too far away; places like Ontario and Corona are okay). I plan on traveling up US 101, so I can also give a ride to people along the way (Ventura, Santa Barbara, etc.).

    To share the cost of gas, I'm asking for $30 per person.

    Please message me if you're interested.

    Try uploading it using normal characters and see if that fixes your problem

     

     

    I'd avoid using these for now and stick to ASCII characters

     

    I think I'll stick it out for now; this was just a quick silly thing. Thanks for the suggestions, though. 

  5. The URL for the latest song on my profile ("HOW DO I VAPE?") doesn't work. You can access the song by clicking on it, but if you copy and paste the URL, it doesn't work. The shortlink doesn't work either.

     

    I think it has something to do with the "slug" being empty (the title doesn't contain any ASCII characters).

  6. My latest song, a remix of "Make a Wish," is not showing up on my profile. You can confirm this by following the link and clicking on my name.

     

    What's interesting is that my name is listed as Jack Fox Grayson (without quotation marks) on this track, while the name on my profile and the rest of my music is Jack "Fox" Grayson (with quotation marks, which is what I prefer). (You can compare this on the "Hardcore" genre listing.) And, in the artist list (currently between pages 22 and 23), there are two different artists, Jack "Fox" Grayson and Jack Fox Grayson. I assume that this latest song was put under the latter artist, but I can't seem to access that profile from anywhere.

     

    Update: My account page (as opposed to my profile) lists only my newest song. And, in my settings, the option to sync my display name with MLP Forums is enabled. (And you can see what my display name is here.) So I suppose that's an immediate cause of the problem.

     

    However, I remember disabling this (back when it was "sync with Poniverse" or something like that) because Poniverse didn't let me put the quotation marks in.

     

    Well, I just (re-)disabled that, and it seems Poniverse lets me put the quotes in now. Oddly enough, MLP Forums still doesn't.

  7. Ah, this is a classic.

     

    It all depends on how you treat "implied multiplication". Is it the same as regular multiplication, and thus on the same level as division, or is it different (and has greater precedence than division)?

     

    Same as regular multiplication:

     

    48/2(9+3)

    = 48 / 2 * (9+3)

    = 48 / 2 * 27

    = 288

     

    Greater precedence:

     

    48 / 2(9+3)

    = 48 / 24

    = 2

     

    I personally go with the latter for convenience.

  8. Let's try a few variations:

    Twitter profile picture, not bad.

    Cover from one of my songs (from SoundCloud), okay.

    And finally...

    My name is pretty distinctive, and I'm not complaining.

  9. Example: https://pony.fm/tracks?filter=songs-33

     

    The results look okay, but when I try to play them, they don't match. When I try to click to the song page, it leads to a different song.

     

    Example: "Rihanna + Twilight Sparkle - We Found Love in Bloom." Strangely, though, the URL seems fine (https://pony.fm/tracks/69-rihanna-twilight-sparkle-we-found-love-in-bloom), but that is the wrong ID. (http://pony.fm/t69 leads to the song "Epic Wub Test 2", https://pony.fm/tracks/69-epic-wub-test-2.)

     

    This problem does not occur on any other filters.

    I don't Think Molestia is funny at all if anyone wanna see People do "That" they should not destroy the spirit in MLP cause Many MLP bronies/Pegasisters do not want THAT
     

     

    Many don't want to see Rule 34, but in the spirit of Love and Tolerance we shouldn't be trying to destroy it. But you're right, it shouldn't be thrown in people's faces. (Frankly I think Molestia isn't, actually.)

    Rape is a serious issue that I believe shouldn't be joked about1. However, shutting down the blog2 isn't the answer. Even if it's true that rape jokes increase the incidence of rape3, censoring such jokes isn't going to stop people who think rape isn't something serious. They'll keep telling rape jokes somewhere. If someone really wants to stop rape in terms of rape jokes, there should be a campaign to raise more awareness about the seriousness of rape4, maybe using some choice statistics.

     

    About the whole issue with children. Yes, the brony fandom produces quite a bit of content that is not appropriate for children, but it is partly5 a parent's responsibility to make sure children do not view such material. Shutting down the blog2 is an extreme measure to take to this end. There are filters, and there are ways for sites to mark themselves as inappropriate for children6.

     

    Footnotes7 FTW

     

    1At least lightly, anyway

    2Is getting the blog shut down the ultimate goal of Down with8 Molestia?

    3I don't know how much evidence there is for this, but it seems reasonable.

    4Is there such a campaign associated with Down with Molestia?

    5Some would say mostly.

    6Tumblr specifically allows a blog to be marked as "NSFW" or "adult."

    7Or endnotes. Footnotes are at the bottom of the page; endnotes are at the end of an entire work. But since this post is only one "page," they're the same.

    8Learn to capitalize!

     

    EDIT: This is how I'm going to feel about posting here.
