>>39913463>Discord drama and bait posts are off-topicI hear that Discord attaches earthworms to his dick and then sticks it in a pond so that the fish will start nibbling on his dick.
>>39913469
sweet, I've been waiting for a thread to go up to submit a few panel appsis wetbrain for sure not happening? I was going to avoid doing artist games to keep from competing with it, but if it isn't happening I have an idea or two for an artist game panel I could try
>>39913495There's a Major IRL Live Event to which a bunch of people who normally do wetbrain will be goingincluding me if I didn't have to run /mlp/ con that weekend
Is it too late to reschedule and regenerate interest?>>39913529>con orginizer loses time with actual friends for a con that might go bustwell, now I'm incredibly sad.
>>39913571>well, now I'm incredibly sad.don't be, it was looking to probably be more money than I could really spend at this time anyway
If thread dies overnight, then maybe that's a sign lol
>>39913469OP is just to lazy to engage criticism so they just label it as bait. Besides where the fuck have these threads been?
My panel's ready. Just hoping I don't have to come up with an alternate host for it due to issues.
>>39913463Was hoping for an earlier date so that's kinda unfortunate. Is the 16th the deadline for Panel apps?
what would be preferablesubmitting a ton of panel apps to help fill up the schedule?or just one or maybe two so the con can be shortened or something?I don't want people to hate me for dominating the schedule either, but I do have a lot of fun doing live stuff
>>39913903>to lazy to engage criticismWhat does this even mean? Is this legit schizobabble?
>>39913966Yeah, but there are always last minute panels The earlier panel apps get their preference of time and date
Question, would there be interest for making an /mlp/ con car live with chat in Automation, which you(the viewer) can later drive on BeamNG? We could try and make a mare stylized vinyl of sorts so its not merely /v/ or /o/ relatedNote, no voice, I'm a fucking ESL and would be shy as fuck on the spotlight
can someone tell me why mlp cons are always 18+? i wanna bring my daughter since she really likes it as well but she's under 18 so I can't.
>>39914193You really want you daughter around this crowd?
>>39914193Because people inevitably post porn in the chat? Plus there's spicy panels of people sucking dick. Are you the guy who was watching with his kid during the marathon?
>>39914193Wrong thread dummy
Let this shit die, banning me from my own panel (based off 3 handwritten posts btw) last year was retarded and shawn isnt' interested in coming back and neither am i, just make it one day and let anyone control the cytube with vote skips at this point this isnt 2020 anymore online cons need to die off just like trotcon requiring masks needs to fuck off and die too
>>39914527not really sure why /mlp/con needs yo happen when we just had marecon like 3 months ago imo, agreed for trotcons gayass mask mandate too
>>39914608>>39914527Give /mlp/con a mask mandate for. I reason
>>39914608not really sure why /mare/con needs yo happen when we just had /mlp/con like 3 months ago imo.
>>39914527I was kind of getting tired of shawn anyway desu. He's a cool guy but he doesn't really have anything to do with pony
>>39914527Nobody likes you tranny
>>39914527Nobody wants to see you at /mlp/con anyways
>>39914527Kill yourself, Spec
>>39914608/mlp/con came first and was created and run by people who actually show up to their own convention.
>>39914781He makes OC with ponies, it just takes a while. I do think it's time to "retire" his stance as a special guest for now just because it's just oversaturation, having the same guy over and over.
>>39915147Fully organized off the board so it makes more sense that it runs more smoothly
>>39914527I can't wait to deck you at fair troon
With all the attention going towards mare fair wouldn't it be fair to move the date for /mlp/con to something later if possible?
>>39915147i guess that makes sense, but I've never even heard of /mlp/con til the mare fair thread. is it just too early for the buzz or something?
>>39915208The new organizers want to wait till after /mlp/con to start making threads
>>39914193I'll watch your daughter for you.
>>39915207I thought there was a vote thread for the date
shidding an farding in bread
You're so annoying base
>>39914781Yeah he was getting kinda burned out, still likes the fandom though>>39914972shut up>>39914984shut up >>39914993U first i PROMISE ill follow right after>>39914621YEAH>>39915203Ill have mace on me so try me faggot>>39914527Shut up I was gonna get faust this year or ingram but last years bullshit made me abandon that idea
>>39915207what do you mean? it doesn't conflict with mare fair? it's 4 months before.>>39915296There was, the first 2 or 3 threads were all about voting for date
>>39915401You won't see it coming troony
>>39913571>>39915448Corp hasn't been all that happy as of late
>>39915335who
>>39915517Issues with the irl con?
>39915401How the hell was this lolcow ever allowed to do anything significant
>>39916321Yea a lot of responsibility is being placed on his shoulders
>>39916485The power of discord circlejerking
So, how do I know if a panel I submitted is approved?
>>39915448That's what I thought lmaoThere was like months to decide on the date already
>>39916321no, no issues thereit is taking a lot of time and a bit of stressjust anxious to make sure nothing is forgotten and everything goes off without a hitch>>39916683It's approved unless it isn't pony relatedSo far, no panel submitted this year (or any other year) has failed to meet that requirement(with the exception of the one last minute panel where the guy claimed it'd be pony related but it was just him playing a flying game and being autistic)>>39916485Nopony else was willing to step up and do it, I guessEvery thread the OP mentions reaching out to get gueststhe only person who's ever successfully done that has been him>Take the initiative and reach out to people who would make for a good interview, guests from the show or others in the fandom that aren't from the board (don't lie to them and don't pull a Spec; if you are uncomfortable actually performing the interview, we can get someone to help with that)
>>39916806Why can't you just ban Spec? The threads and con don't want him
>>39916818He IS banned. Getting him out of the threads would be up to the jannies.
So this year's con banner is just going to be 2022's but with an edit to the last digit?
>>39917161Yeah
>>39916821Sure he is
>>39913463>June 30-Jul 2>Weekend before burgerland holidayRIP, will be out of town during the con this year. Maybe next time, fuckers.
>>39917213Sleep tight, Pizza
>>39917161>OP file name I think OP has been begging artfags for a new banner You wanna make one?
>>39917911bystander effectif you ask everybody to do something, nobody will do anything
>>39917911Or they could just bully BCS to make another one
Does it really take spec to get jargon to draw these banners?
>>39918706Discord circlejerkers. Not even once.
>>39918706Nobody likes you spec
So why is the con preparation so dead compared to last year? Is the board dying again?
>>39919167Most people work alone or wait till the last minute
>>39919167/mare/ con killed /mlp/ con then killed itself
>>39919205>Most people work aloneB-but I thought... friendship is magic...most of us are really just like Twilight pre-Ponyville in a way
>>39919255There's also the fact that not many updates get posted around here anymore
>>39919224/mare/con was always dead and literally only happened because certain people saved it last second and didn't sleep for 72 hours. It's not within its power to kill anything.
>>39919167Kind of burned out from marecon, got mare fair on my mind too. Also I don't feel qualified to do the panel I want to do quite yet. I'm skipping doing my own panel for this one (I am contributing to others though).
>>39919528That's not what I heard but sure let's all go with that
>>39919537>I don't feel qualified to do the panel I want to do quite yet.Look at it this way anon, unless you commit a major fuckup, you won't be worse than spec
>>39919609Or ace combat anon
>>39920816Life support bump
"Sleep tight, Pizza" bump
>>39919537If you just show up to your panel, you've already done better than the /mare/con guy.
>>39919537I rather focus on /mare/con at this point too
I am officially requesting a panel on how to set up I2P for fucking idiots so I can help host all the goodgood pony shit remember it has to be for complete retards, and if there's anything that you have to install as a prerequisite (like if you need python or whatever), please note ahead of time so people can at least try to get that part together before the panel.
>>39922773You want other people to run a panel for you?
Let the thread die
There are now a total of six (6) panel applications receivedif we don't break the barrier of ten panels by June 1, I'm gonna create a new date selection poll and we're gonna pick a single day for the conif we don't break twenty panels, then it's gonna be a two day con with a poll to pick the dayslast year we had about 45 or so panels for comparison
>>39923742How do I submit one? Did one the last online con we had.
>>39923742Sorry chief prepin for mare fair and /mare/con is taking up my time
>>39923815Read the op dumbass
>>39923742The June 2nd could be potentially bad for me. The weekend of the 4th is like the one time I'm usually away.
>>39923943The majority voted for these stupid dates...
>>39923943June 2nd?Unfortunately date's already been chosen by the board in prior threads where I begged repeatedly for as many people as possible to vote and have their voices heard
I'll make a /mare/con thread after this one gets archived in order to pick a date
>>39923965if /mlp/on is dead /mare/con is gonna be even deaderonline cons in general are over
>>39923971Still making content for /mare/con tho
>>39923742>>39923943>June>Not JulyI was mistaken, I was thinking of July.June 2nd should be fine for me. Just a lot sooner than I was thinking the con was I guess.
>>39924001Mare fair has been taking the spot light as of late and OP doesn't have any help with posting threads to keep this as event relevant as past years
>>39923987gonna be kinda lonely by yourself>>39924001con is June 30-July 2, check OP
>>39924020With purp at the helm it's gonna be a blast enjoy your doom posting
>>39924001>>39924020I was mistaken again, back to being a potential problem.
>>39924035Just wait for mare fair or /mare/con if you're that confused
>>39924027if nobody can be asked to go to /mlp/con i don't see how /mare/con is gonna be anything more/mare/con has always been about 1/4-1/3 the size of /mlp/conso that'd be about 3 panels for /mare/con
>>39924086It's about the content and maresIf you care about numbers then you already lost
>>39924086>/mare/con has always been about 1/4-1/3 the size of /mlp/conSauce? I'm actually interested in the stats
>>39924278>lol, /mlp/con is dead, come to /mare/con instead, it won't be dead>well, i mean, it isn't about the numbers duuuhhhhhhhhhidk seems like you can't make up your mind>>39924356livestream replays of eachplus the schedules
I think that people would notice this con more if you guys could find a big special guest, if Spec was able to do it I think someone less retarded could do it as well
>>39925034shut the fuck up spec
>>39925034>I think that people would notice this con more?????????????????????????????????What?? Like why would you just? Think this is desirable?????
>>39923892/mare/con is in january, if it even happens. How is that disrupting the june convention prep at all?
>>39925917unless you are running on neet money, people have things they need to work on to survive.On top of that, we have to prepare for Mare Fair too.I know its beyond the ability for some to comprehend, but quality shitposting takes quite a bit of effort.
>>39925034What about getting actual ponies to walk around the event space?
>>39925917I'd like to create some videos but if you are like me that travels for work and has a minimum of 40 hours of labor a week... you'll notice that a project that would take an afternoon to complete now takes a few weeks at the minimum >>39926144I wish I had friends that would help me but sadly I only see them once a month if I'm lucky
>>39925034>special guest Like who?
>>39926216Josh Haber
>>39926161>a panel that is solely a live feed of a horse in the stabletell me how this wouldn't be kino

>>39926224Spec nobody wants you here please leave you clout goblin
>>39926239Worth it. Look how calm the pony makes the afflicted
>>39926144And you're saying the smaller convention that got taken over from the previous owner is more worth preparing for than this one? I'm not sure I get what you mean.
>>39926608I have more time for a winter online convention over a summer one Simple as
>>39922002>>39926608I sense some personal animosity here you can leave the drama whoring at the door thanks
>>39927110It's some retarded discord drama I heard about it at harmony con and it's not that impressive
>>39919255Most "anons" work alone, wait to the last minute, or in their spaces along with others. There is only so much you can do besides asking for updates in the threads
>>39927110I'm questioning why someone would loudly proclaim that they're "too busy" to contribute to the upcoming convention that this very thread is about and will instead be working on a convention that won't happen for 7 months.
>>39927365Tis the same reason why people complain in the server, in calls, etc. It's either because they can complain or they're just being a drama whore since they don't not have anything going for themselves irl
>>39927393What server? I'm talking about this thread.
>>39927406
So many of these posts are going to get deleted
>>39926225sent a cap of this to a guy who could actually make this happenhope he does it
>>39927899
>>39927946Nostalgia trip but a welcomed one
>>39923965please don'tlet's wait until after /mlp/ con is said and done before the next planning thread, around the week/weekend after the conwe don't have to compete lol although I do think a little competition is good (and at least it's a less annoying way to keep the thread bumped than complaining about discord lol)>>39924086I expect /mlp/ con to have a burst of activity the week/weekend of the con. Won't be as big as last year, maybe, but there'll still be a bunch of people there and things coming together at the last minutedoesn't matter if we only get like 20 people for /mare/ con, it's still gonna be funTwifag's done a great job with /mlp/ con, but there are a few things I want to try to do differently with my approach to /mare/ con. I don't expect it to surpass (or probably even come close to) /mlp/ con in numbers, but I promise it won't be dead
>>39928129Sure thing boss. I'm just excited to be a part of something so please excuse me for being jumpy...
>>39927197>work aloneI wouldn't mind working with others but I don't know in what capacity that could be done.
>>39923718if it's too hard for you to read between the lines, I don't know how to do it myself. other people on the board sure do apparently, so I'm hoping one of them can help us other retarded anons out.
>>39928647I think you can do it anon, I think anons will be glad to help
still can't decide how many panels I should apply for
>>39913463Cool, a month and a have to complete a game. It's not gonna happen, but a man can dream.
>>39929745Stop life support bumping and just make a panel
>>39930053Not him, but I asked if I should do a thing ITT and got no replies or opinions...I want to do something for the board"Having fun with chatbots" panel is another idea to do with chat, but then again, somewhat boring in my mind, albeit pretty random results
>>39930343Yea cause these threads feel like you are only talking to chat bots. If you have any ideas just bounce them around here I'd be happy to reply.
>>39930364Anon, I...
>>39930373Personally this it's why I work alone... cause nobody here actually fucking talks
>>39930379My reaction comes from you saying you would be happy to replyWhile not replying to the idea I said got no repliesOr the idea in the very post itselfJust that you'd be "happy to reply"...
>>39930390I mean is it not (You)s that you want? We're talking afterall
>>39930390Apologies, I thought you were going to post more... if you posted an idea in the past please remind me
>>39930397
>>39930397>talkingmore than 70% of this thread is life support bumps or drama
>>39930399>>39914126And again, that very post >>39930343
>>39930416Okay dick I didn't know you were talking about that
>>39930421Yea, thanks for your happily given input on both of the ideas, as expected
>>39930421>>39930467Different ideas, might I add, since from the start you ignored the idea you directly answered to as well. Can't imagine the reading comprehension
>>39930343>>39930475Not the same guy but where is the automobile show mentioned in this post?
>>39930496>>39930475>different ideas
You fags rather argue than help each other typical /mlp/ behavior ^:)
>>39930497I'm backing you up here cause that guy is bugging
>>39930500I know right? They should kiss
>>39930504Fuck off, I'm not gay, reee
>>39930510I'm sorry Anon, science says otherwise
There are gays in the thread?!
>>39930514Well, shit
>>39930518I know right? The nerve!
>>39930518>>39930523Sorry Anons, I'll try to kiss my mare even more and more often to be rid of this devil's curseAt least it wasn't cast with dubs...now that would be a problem
>>39930343Hey, even if it's boring, at least it's something, consider that there were way less interesting ideas that yielded very interesting results. And if you're not sure about that, just do a panel where you do stuff but with ponies, like how to write ponies, or how to make ponuy music, or yourself recreating the mare juice recipes and other assorted pony related culinary disasters
>>39930537Well, I am a musicfag, but I only work with sheets...probably just as boring I guess
>>39930541That could work, like a panel where you're playing pony songs but on whatever interments you play, assuming you can translate the songs into sheet music and then play them
alright, finally got all my panel apps submitted I decided not to hold back, I gave you guys a chance to stop me ^:)Opening CeremoniesClosing CeremoniesMare-itory Control 3HLVRAIMLPOf Plush and PlushmancyBaking with Anon: Homemade Pony Donuts!numget birthday party Fa-mare-ly Feudok I think that's it... for now ^:))))))

>>39930673Hopefully you can deliver on those promises
>>39930673>Fa-mare-ly FeudDo I have to have a mare family beforehand for the panel?
>>39931392>let's Beyblade!
>>39931392my plan was to make the different teams out of different board cliques/groupingsfor exampleartfags/drawthreadtf2fags/ss/ fagsrewatchfagstwifags/some kind of waifufagboard namefagssurveyfags (anons that respond to a survey I'll put out sometime soon ish to find contestants)last minute anons (team put together literally during the panel)probably just like 4 teams of 5 in a simple tournament style thing, with a few different games/challenges they have to compete in, with the audience as the judge or providing whatever metric they're graded against (a la Family Feud (not not just a carbon copy, games are gonna be pretty different))and the grand prize: a FREE IPOD NANO!!! I'm actually going to buy one and try to ship it to the winner
>>39932656>no group for writersAre we so dead to (You)
>>39932674Zoomers don't read
>>39932674>for examplebut seriously though, thanks for the suggestion, I guess I just don't have connections with any writers so it wasn't at the top of my mind. I wasn't sure if there were enough around to make a whole team of them, but I was thinking about having some writing-related aspect of some challenge, fwiwis there some place where a lot of writers convene, or some way I can get in contact with a bunch? seems to me like they're a lot more evenly scattered around the board than artfags or musicfags and idk if the fimfiction thread counts or notoh yeah that reminds me that a team of /ppp/ fags was another idea
Due to ponepaste being dead, I'm keeping the latest notes on github for now: https://github.com/mlpcon/notes/blob/master/NOTES.mdIf you've signed up for a panel, you should probably have mentioned it in threadIf I missed something, lmkgonna try and get the schedule updated today before I leave for the rest of the week(if you didn't ask for a specific date or time, your panel will be in a placeholder on schedule)
>>39932741>mentioned it in threadMore Horsewords and (You) is what I'm excited to bring. First round was goofy with no prep time, this time will be at least marginally more organized and easy to digest.
OK, schedule is updated in the spreadsheet (see OP for link)Panels that are in italics did not have an exact day/time and their place on the schedule could change (so if you want a slot taken up by an italicized panel, don't be afraid to ask for it)Anithology wanted Fri 10pm, but the closest I could get you was 8:15-9:45The Filling Gaps in Established Lore panel wanted Friday at 9pm, but that shit's way too packedFor both of you, Saturday and Sunday evenings are completely open rn if you're willing to move to another day
>>39932834>https://github.com/mlpcon/notes/blob/master/NOTES.mdOK, well.. How about 'filling gaps' Saturday evening then?
>>39932942By having people fill them out..?

>>39934795It's going to be mostly the same as last year where I read anons posts about them loving their waifu. Always ready to spice it up with some cum tributes in the thread or uhhhh something else maybe. Anything goes in this stream.

>>39930760Depends what time it's at but yes
>>39935633Be less monotone and boring this time.
>>39938729I agree, anons are pouring their hearts out man, gotta give it at least a tad more emotion than a youtube essayist reading shit he found on Wikipedia

>>39942045Do ponies really?
Are there enough panels for 3 days yet?
>>39942869It depends on how short you want the con to be
>>39942869oh yeah I forgot to register my drawing panel
>>39944186Do it anon!
>>39942869Definitely enough for 2 days, idk about 3 yet
Quick give me a list so I can make a panel about panelling panels
>>39944186Good luck!

>>39953669ok sorry
>>39954318Based
>interest bump
>>39955215surely soon
>>39956208Soon for what?
>>39956586To bump the thread of course
Had a bit of a setback, but web site has been moved to new server......but not yet updated.Still, the update should be quick and easy, hopefully soon (by end of this weekend)Also, still a startlingly small number of panels.I'll be sending out official panel e-mails/messages in a few weeksAny CyTube janny mod volunteers this year?The janny list is cleared out every yearI can't believe it's only X days until con and still no new OP image......No artfags attend /mlp/ con
>>39956969To busy working on marefair art sworry
>>39957064fair, mare fair is more important anyway ^:)
>>399570751st irl con I'll be going to in years
fuck this stupid shit con, go to mare fair.
>>39957092You could do both, anon
>>39957105"Anon" we are all from the discord do not lie to yourself
im gonna go to a furcon instead
>>39958051I hope this is just a bump meme
Besides OP's 2 posts all the other posts have just been bumps. Let the thread die
>>39958209Con is in a month, thread should stay alive
>>39958209This is probably the last year for it anyway. I don't imagine it going longer since we're a month out with no new banner, few panels, and in the most charitable of assumptions, people are over online cons since the coof lockdowns are done and dusted except for pony conventions and speedrunning events
>>39958872People were over the coof last year as well and that con was successful.
>>39958882Last year also didn't have Mare Fair, which doesn't have related restrictions. It also didn't have someone deciding to advertise and plan a different online convention right as soon as the first /mlp/con planning thread came up
>>39958893I liked online cons because people other than burgers had a chance to participate, I guess that's over now.
>>39958872It depends on how big a con should be. It's just a bunch or anons goofing off with a schedule and calling it something official.
>>39958902Same, this is the closest I can reach from a real pony convention, no one will ever make one in my shithole and I cannot afford to get a visa to go to Europe or the US for one
>>39958872Any ideas for a new banner? Ive got mspaint and about 10000 hours to kill
>>39959215Nothing too specific. It does need to have Contard, Conpone, and at least one Anonfillyanonmare even, "/mlp/con 2023", and some scenario that implies a convention. You can get a feel for what would work well by looking at the past few years' banners.
>>39958902>>39959190/mare/con is coming back in the winter
>>39959244/mare/con is boring, I'd rather have /mlp/con
>>39959257Well it's an alternative. So until you make more panels and provide updates it's the only other con I have hope in rn
What would panels entail here?Like could I go on about my very sfw vore?Discuss how to work with Unity game engine?Autistic lore dump of my fim fic universe?
>>39959387Basically the only rule is to keep it at least vaguely pony related. Streams have included real horse stuff, drawing pone pictures, literally just talking about pony stuff, etc. the bar for entry isn't all that high.
>>39959274It's absolutely not an alternative, the guy behind it is a retard that dipped out when push came to shove and the last one happened solely because other people took over for his lazy ass. /mare/con is nothing, just a shallow imitation of /mlp/con made because some tribalist morons thought that they weren't properly represented. It had zero memorable panels, moments or any reason to exist besides someone ranting about Discord for no reason
>>39959404So no to the unityBut I can discuss my fetishes?Kind of wanting to do an mlp vore panel over the new fa policy
>>39958872HaHCon was a thing for a few years before covidWe don't need covid to have online cons >>39959244Mare con is a fraction of /mlp/ con size
Guess I'll save my panel for /mare/con
>>39959421>t. didn't even go to /mare/con
>>39959425There was a stream of someone blowing virtual horsecock in VR. Fetish talk should be fine as far as rules are concerned, though how interested the viewers will be is hard to say.
>>39959444Where should I look to figure out panel themes?I want to do something offensively enjoyable, like a good dirty joke
>>39959462ask an AI for ideas?
>>39959478This thread is already filled with bots
>>39959462>https://forms.gle/BjV7ZMwQBsZ9PVDt5The application form features some general ideas. Otherwise it's up to you to find your inspiration.
Pony themed Jackbox panel
>>39959404>keep it at least vaguely pony relatedthe whole reason I enjoyed /mlp/ compared to the in person con that I went to is the fact that /mlp/ was all about the ponies. That's how it should be and how my panel will be autistic or not.
>>39959421One memorable part I'd say was the horse cock sucking
>>39959576Or numget and Rot's panel
>>39959576>>39959652The horse cock sucking and numget were all from /mlp/ con, not /mare/ conRot did her first panel during /mare/ con and her second during /mlp/ conNobody can tell the difference between /mlp/ con and /mare/ con anymore
>>39959714Lol you clearly weren't there my dude and plenty of people can but you're just a grifter
>>39959793
Web site updatedSchedule still isn't on the web site yet
>>39959387It's pretty lax. One of my favorite panels from last year was a marble simulator (as in, glass marble balls) that all had names of ponies on them, and we got to watch them "race" to the end of a course. It was surprisingly fun. I'd almost say the simpler the panel, the better.
>>39959714>her
>>39959984itage
>>39959215>>39959239okay i think this is the best i can do
>>39960122/mlp/conbros we are so back
>>39960122Need a gif, apng, and weba formats ^:)
>>39960122
>>39960835okedoke. heres a rar of a gif and a png, along with the paint 3d file if you wanna take some better picshttps://www.mediafire (.) com/file/5lhfakg2v322q5e/mlpcon_banner_stuff.zip/file
Fucking hate stuckey so god damn much.
I've spent hours today converting the original banner file to a usable format and, though I've made progress, still not quite theremay be easier to keep a static image lolgoing to let these convert jobs run overnight and get back at it tomorrow
>>39962690Imagine beefing with a dead guy lol
