Finished another awesome year at bronycon today, update post and such coming later. Grey and I were having our last dinner a few minutes ago at Bubba Gumps, and an extended family of about 11 were having issues splitting up the check. I may have accidentally paid their entire check after following their server into the kitchen. Oops. The server was cool and said exactly what I asked, of “some random person in here paid for your check, everything’s covered”. They were definitely not there for the con, so I know they won’t see this and spoil my cover.
Thanks everypony that bought something from me, you helped me have enough to randomly pay for a group’s dinner.
This is the guy that also gave me a couple of patches for free.
Basically the nicest person ever.
1) Woah! Woah! What the [omitted] dude?!
2) You’re basically out of lines then, huh? Probably should have quit while you were ahead.
After a short break, an earth pony mare steps into the ring with a foam battle-axe, and introduces herself as Juniper Berries of Coltswell.
Announcer: “Let’s hear it for our new challenger, Juniper Berries!”
The crowd stomps enthusiastically as the two contestants get into position.
Announcer: “Are you ready? And… fight!”
Before Juniper Berries can so much as react, Gerwalta’s weapon becomes a spiraling blur, and the foam battle-axe is sent flying out of the ring. Instantly disarmed, the pony finds herself at the mercy of the griffon’s foam spear, and eagerly resigns.
Moonflower: “Whoa, cool!”
Announcer: “This is it, ponies! Gerwalta the Gladiator claims her hundredth victory in a row!”
The crowd cheers once more. Gerwalta and Juniper Berries bow to each other, then the mare picks up her weapon, and returns it to the rack.
Minuette: “Over already? I know it’s all in good fun, but that Gerwalta looks a bit too strong for the league. I wonder if anypony can end her streak.”
Doesn’t seem like much of a tournament to me. Just looks like a single individual taking on any untrained challenger. No sign-up, no brackets. Was this event even promoted?
just downloaded this game, I hope I can get Terra!
There’s an event going on until the end of the 17th where if you make an account you get a bunch of free stuff, including 10 random rare character unlocks.
Well, there’s a trick called rerolling that you can do to manipulate your odds on those unlocks, if you have the time. This video explains it better than any of the write ups I read.
I did about 20-30 rerolls trying to get Leo before I settled on Terra, but in between all of that I had pulled every other rare character in the game other than Leo. And some of them multiple times!
(I don’t know what it is about these last few drawings. but I just don’t feel like they have been particularly as good as what I normally produce. Sorry for the wavering quality.)
I thought they looked great! But I hear artists have that problem now and again, where they see more flaws in their own work than they normally do.
