============================================================================================================

Hello there, everypony! Welcome to the MCM 2025 Review.

On behalf of the MLP Forums and the staff, we hope that you enjoyed this year's Make Christmas Merrier.

Now is your chance to give feedback.

Did you enjoy the events? Wish you could have seen more? Do you have any suggestions for more activities you'd like to see in the future? Were there any activities you enjoyed so much that you'd like to do it again? Let us know!

We are also very proud of everyone who donated to charity this year.
Due to uncontrollable circumstances, we couldn't record who donated, so we can't give out any special rewards to our doners this year. It was the hope and intention of the staff that hosting a charity this way would make users feel less pressured to donate in fear of missing out on a reward. And now, we'd love to know your thoughts.

Did you prefer this new format? Would you rather donation perks return for next year? Would you like to see perks handled differently?

All thoughts and feedback are welcomed and encouraged.
Most of all, we hope that this year's MCM left you with plenty of fun memories to look back on. With any luck, you'll all join us for even more grand events next year.

Here's to the end of 2025, with hopes of an even better year in 2026.
There is still one last fun activity just around the corner, and hopefully most of you will be able to participate. But even if you miss your chance, here's a fun little gift to close things out with, something you can watch any time you want. May it bring you joy and many laughs.

This is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. 

[Longhaul 10,093]

Simply magnificent.  A true cinematic work.

[ExplosionMare 28,670]

That was such a fun video!

[Astralshy 31,187]

Such an awesome video @Samurai Equine

[Tacodidra 62,093]

If anyone from Hasbro is reading this, you absolutely have to hire @Samurai Equine for G6.  Genuinely the most fun I've had with ponies in a while! 

[Ice Princess Silky <3 20,336]

O my gosh, that was hysterical! Well done @Samurai Equine!

So many people in staff and you had to reduce it to just.. 12/13? (+ Buffy, of course). Wow, that was only 13 people and yet I wish I could have seen more. But you captured everyone quite well. And I love the counter troll of putting my pink pone in there.

"Wait, am I still an amid?!" (admin) 
Pink pone: *exists.*

*suddenly*

DEFFF METAAAAAAAL!!!!!
(even though I am more of a power metal head, myself). 

Great job, nontheless! This was truly fun to watch. c:

Just because you complimented me doesn't mean I like it or anything; baka~ 
Aww shucks. T'weren't nothin'.
I am just happy it gave some people a reason to smile. 

And I would have been happy to include the entire staff in the video, I just ran out of time to make stik ponis of everyone.

[Ishmael 115]

Really appreciate the Daft Punk.
