Come here you sexy beasts.

IT'S TIME FOR ULTIMATE LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP!


That being said, I have this brony friend who is a really great artist….but he just can't get enough of the R34. I try to tell him to draw some non-R34 sometimes but his reply "I tried drawing that once…it was boring without R34 :( "

Anyone else have friends like that?

I'll be leavin' a tad early tonight guys.
I need to continue to work on my model I just gotten done with the top torso then I need to do is the legs and finally the animation!!!
Here is a picture:

Just need to figure out how to put it into minecraft after that and try to make it so It fires lasers and missiles. Along with firing bullets.

I only have one brony friend, and we don't talk much about Pony at all. My guess is that he doesn't like R34 at all.

I can't give a good guess as to how many artists or consumers of R34 get bored of non-sexual pony material, because I filter R34 out on Ponibooru, the drawfriends at EqD have them linked and not embedded, and the tumblrs I follow are R34 free.

One of the problems with R34 is when it scares brony candidates off. Just like…

I'm just kidding, everyone. I'll just lurk here until the late night debate club gets rolling.

Edit: And New Page Get.

Wait for me! We can lurk together.


Who has best rape face?
I vote Spike

I agree with Iambob

And debate club has been…lacking topics for a few nights since most of us are really busy with schoolwork. Or at least Verbose and I are.

Anyone with a topic, I'm open to it. I have work to do and I'm going out for a bit later but, still, I don't mind a diversion.

I-I-I guess I'll leave for now.

S-See you guys, l-l-l-later…(gulp). I hope….

Sorry, I really have nothing to say. I tend to live life with a "Come at me, bro" attitude. I don't really believe in supernatural forces, but if they did exist and I was up against them… once again "COME AT ME, BRO". Sure it'd probably get me killed, but I'll be laughing to my grave.

Finished my latest Forza 4 decal! Plus I recorded the whole thing on my computer, so in a couple days I'll have my first speed paint and my first youtube video! What do you guys think?

This is what I wasted the last hour on instead of studying. I know this is a bit late to the game, but hey, I've been busy.

Wet mane OC? Hell yeah. edit: Now with the ever-elusive second ear.

Actually, it's one of those extremely rare occasions in which my OC actually makes an appearance.



Now I'm out of excuses. Back to the books, I guess.

@opspe

You might need to add hair extensions to your OC in order for the wet mane thing to work. Thats what I did.

Although yours doesn't look as effeminate as mine did. I'm going try using that facial shape to see if it works better

@everyone else

And don't you be bailing on me! I just got back from from work and I had to deal with one of the most miserable websites I have ever encountered so I need my ponies.

Seriously, who takes a non-functional design prototype, throws in some hardcoded company data straight into the HTML and calls it a working production website? …bleh…at least I earned some income of someone elses blunder.

@Debate club

I got something for debate. I've been rolling around the idea of BATTLE PONIES in my head lately. I need help coming up with the PONY BATTLE STATS. Interested?

Extensions???


Earning income from other people's mistakes is second only to earning it by doing nothing.


Someone posted pony battle stats a few pages back. I'll go find it. I think the post was deleted, but the image is out there somewhere.

edit: This guy has some pretty extensive D&D-style stats drawn up

I can't brain on ponies tonight. This may be my first true all-nighter.

But I saw some simple Rarity. Which makes me want to read Simply Rarity again (which is no longer a possible reality, but it's still an interesting fic.

BSoD

I have ideas as to how characters in fighting video games should move and how they would register damage. I have an interest in that genre of gaming even though suck at it. If you meant role-playing, then my ideas may be more abstract.

Generally, I believe that some stats (such as speed) should not be arbitrarily given but determined by physics. For example, to move quickly, there must be enough force in the proper direction to move a mass. Therefore, speed/agility would be based on coordination, weight, and strength (maybe some other factors.) And a set percentage of the scores for coordination, weight, and strength would determine the speed/agility stats which would govern how quickly characters move.

Back to work now.

I was thinking more in terms of a FPS Deathmatch more than a fighting game or an RPG

Lets say the mane 6 split into two teams and engage in a Team Deathmatch in an open field (they respawn, don't worry). First team to 20 frags wins.

The ponies have only themselves and their canonical abilities.

But to apply some rules on what each pony can and cannot do, I created some basic stats for them. I kept it simple:

  • Speed = How fast the pony can run/chase
  • Agility = How fast the pony can dodge attacks
  • Strength = How much damage a pony can inflict (relative)
  • HP = how much damage a pony can take (relative)
  • Magic skill = Quality and effectiveness of magic attacks
  • Flight skill = Quality and effectiveness of aerial attacks
  • Combat skill = Quality and effectiveness of melee attacks

  • Based on the above stats? Which team do you think would win?

    Feel free to adjust/add to the above image and make stuff up. This is all just for fun.

    (Why yes I DID just nerdgineer Ponies…I regret nothing.)

    It's more even than it looks.

    RD is faster than sound but Pinkie will still see her coming every time. (In fact, Pinkie would be damn near untouchable)

    Rarity is strong enough to carry boulders, Fluttershy has enough Kung Fu skill to snap a bears neck

    AJ can run as good as RD, plus shes tough enough to round house kick the apples out of an entire orchard but Twilight is so versatile she could just strike AJ with lightning and be done with it

    Last edited Dec 07, 2011 at 05:00AM EST

    Pinkie and Fluttershy both have caught Dash before. Twilight's magic is better than Rarity's. The only one stronger than the rest is AJ.

    Also here is Lyra Gigaty Gigaty Gigaty

    Last edited Dec 07, 2011 at 04:59AM EST

    Lyra's obviously very flexible and therefore a hard target to hit. And as for Scratch?… Throwing records like chakrams. I'm joking, of course. But that is a good point. What abilities would they have to contribute?

    (Note: Can't sleep so I'm still on here.)

    Make something up ;) Don't wait for me to come up with all the idea's

    Actually I quite like the idea of record Shurikens.

    Maybe she could also Deploy her soundsytem in the middle of the playing field just as a diversion tactic. It would probably work on Pinkie, how could she resist spontaneous dance music?

    In retrospect maybe blue team would win for reasons stated above. What could we do to balance the teams a bit more?

    AJ is already so strong that if she gets within bucking range of her target, its instant win for AJ. Twilights only real defense against AJ would be to teleport away and use magic from a distance. Pinkie can evade AJ easily but there still isn't much she can do to stop her. Fluttershy's only option is to FlutterRAGE…if she can pull it off

    AJ's weaknesses are deserved so I'm thinking there are more abilities we could give either Rarity or RD.

    Sorry I haven't been around guys but my RP is just kicking off. 12 Mercenaries have arrived in Africa and are heading to Kigoma airport in Tanzania:

    I'll also update you guys on what's going on in the Firestorm: Equestria Game.

    I think Rainbow Dash could also go with a "Sonic Rain-nuke" option. I think it could be sort of a hail-mary type attack that drops several of her stats down, but causes an extreme amount of collateral damage. I also think that if Rarity were to find gems in her environment using her skills and can sort of "equip" them to increase her Combat Skill and HP (or maybe that was the point and I just missed it).

    Personally I would root for Fluttershy, simply because she seems like she'd be a total bad@$$ fighter if the need was great enough.

    Blue team has Twilight, so they win by default. There really isn't anything you could do to balance things.

    Applejack would be really badly under-powered, since she could never hit Fluttershy as long she remained airborne, she couldn't get close to Twilight due to her teleporting trick, and she couldn't get near Pinkie because, well, she's Pinkie. That's why she needs some long range attacks.

    • Rainbow Dash could use the Sonic Rainnuke as an all-powerful supermove. She can make lightning bolts for a ranged attack. She can also make tornadoes. I don't know how that would help, but it sure looks cool.
    • Twilight can make forcefields as a defensive move. She could also use telekinesis to keep the others at bay, or completely immobilise them. Or she could put everyone to sleep with that fancy reed trick. Or she could turn everyone in potted plants. Or she could use telekinesis to throw things really hard (she can levitate an Ursa Minor, so just imagine the speed she could put behind a small rock). Twilight's pretty damn OP.
    • Applejack can use a lasso for a long ranged immobilising attack, or she could buck apples for direct damage.
    • Fluttershy could call on her animals for assistance. Nobody would f*ck with Angel Bunny Random
    • Rarity has mad telekinesis skills, and she has sewing needles. See where I'm going with this? She could also whine as a diversionary tactic.

    Helping is fun.
