>>43291039>/mlp/ con 2024 will be held July 10 - 122024?

>>43292308All I wanted to doWas watch my mares and clop

CUMIN ME
>>43291045I don't see the pony mod one on the list, do I need to resubmit it through the application?
>>43291513I fucking love singing but I have a shit mic attached to a shittier headset. Do any anons have any recommendations?
>>43291045>maredoom twice
>>43292740>implying every ponkflag is the same autistic retardanon, I...
I have a fun idea for vendoring apart from my Redbubble store
>>43291039what a fuckable mare

>>43294931Jam thread is up!
>>43294047NTA but there are more than two.
>>43294047TA but there is exactly one.
I'm bored, I think I'll ditch /mlp/con and watch baseball instead
Almost finished setting up the Teeworlds server for /mlp/con, hope anons like itAnd a modpack with 116 skins (there will probably be more when the con starts)Gaming with ponybros is always fun, and these conventions are a great opportunity for that!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIF9B-4CWj8
>>43294947Always love the jam panels!
>>43294947Can we get a thread where an anon makes strawberry jam instead?
>>43295776>Almost finished setting up the Teeworlds server for /mlp/con, hope anons like it>And a modpack with 116 skins (there will probably be more when the con starts)>Gaming with ponybros is always fun, and these conventions are a great opportunity for that!>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIF9B-4CWj8I refuse to play TeeWorlds unless Meghan McCarthy plays with us.
>>43296224I asked her via dm if she wants to play Teeworlds with us, I hope she replies
>>43296613>I asked her via dm if she wants to play Teeworlds with us, I hope she repliesHoly shit lmao!
>>43296210Yes, you can make one.
why don't you guys make a virtual con? like make a vr chat room or a minecraft server all fancy and shiet
>>43291047># Vendors submittedWait is there only one vendor? I know I submitted a vendor application a week or two ago but didn't hear anything more about it yet.
>>43297310>minecraftWe had one. It got shut down because the final year it was offered, nobody joined until it was the closing ceremonies.
>>43297310I have no interest in attending any of these.
>>43297310Too much work for something that's not at all similar to what we do here./mlp/con (and by extension others like marecon) is good because it understands the medium it takes place in (the internet; cytube, the board, etc) and takes the best of that and of irl conventions to make a good, quite unique event.Unlike things like Ponies Online that try too hard to bring irl conventions to the virtual world and end up being a dissapointment and boring-fest, both as an internet experience (they don't take advantage of or even try to embrace everything the internet has to offer) and as an irl convention experience (they try to replicate something impossible to replicate online)Also, do you really think that at least 20% of the anons on the entire board have VR headsets?
Cautionary night bump
>>43291045>>43291047>my panel isn't even in the full listHello "MLP the early days" guys here.My panel idea (which desu I did badly on the spreadsheet) is basically a powerpoint to talk specifically about the birth of this fandom on /co/, so basically focus only between october 2010 and February 2011 with the /b/ explosion. I would talk about the state of 4chan and the internet, the General and Archive, the first drawfags, our interaction with Faust and crew etc, with pics. I feel with how many people joined later it'd be an interesting topic.... however, a combination of work obligation, family stuff me not able to get the days before off, WC and 4CC, and other stuff makes me fear I wont have time to properly prepare correctly everything, especially as it'd be my first foray in streaming/panels. So I'm heavily considering postponing this to marecon next year.I feel kinda bad for doing that since it seems this cons needs the panels but I hope corp wouldn't mind.
submitted a panel to help bolster this beautiful convention!
>>43298529don't forget Lee B&son, Ponychan, /fur/, and how Moot pretty much forced us to jew out and survive to this day.
>>43298579that's already way later, I want to focus solely on 2010 and 2011.
>>43291039Will this con clash with the World Cup and affect it's attendance
>>43298590Watching brownball is the most boring thing to do, IDGI.
>>43298590murrifats don't care about the world cup anyway, or at least will stop caring for it as soon as the US gets ejected.
>>43298590There are only three games that weekend, one on Friday and the other two on Saturday, and they're all quarterfinals.And as this anon says >>43298592 I don't think it will affect the americansI was thinking of hosting a 1-hour HaxBall panel or something like that on sunday night with pony stadiums, considering that more than a few will be caught up in World Cup fever. Although I’m not sure how HaxBall would handle such large groups, so idk
>>43298591>>43298592>>43298676Yeah sports are kind of boring but normgroids still care about them for some bizarre reason. Like formula racing and rally is completely dead because the rules always change whenever a country actually makes better cars that outcompete others and the seethe turns into more gay restrictions like “no v12 engines” or whatever. I feel like the same shit’s been happening to the World Cup and Olympics, it’s just boring, national spirit doesn’t even mean shit unless you’re in a country mostly full of your own people.
>>43298682ok? What does that have to do with /mlp/ and an online convention?
Bump, for corp
>>43297451Sorry, hasn't been updated yet Been focusing on other stuff, but /mlp/ con needs more time so I'll get to this hopefully tomorrow >>43298529Are you for sure cancelling or just thinking aloud you might need to cancel? Whatever you decide better to know in advance than to be wondering where you are day of
ok, schedule and vendor list updated
>>43299584>>43299627yeah I'd prefer to cancel now to make sure, i have a certificate I have to pass this month. I'll try to schedule it for mare con early.Sorry corp.If anyone wants to do the same concept before or at mare fair, feel free. I remember even at marecon there was people who joined in like, 2023.
>>43291513>karaokAre you going to use https://ponytone.online/?
>>43299783Is your panel on the schedule? What's it called exactly?
>>43300020nta but he's referring to "MLP the early days"PonePuzzleTime anon here, he canceling that panel works for me because my panel might start a little later, and I'd use that window he leaves open.But I'm still not sure; give me one more day to see if I do it at the time shown on the schedule or a little later.I will contact Corp regardless of the decision
>>43299783Just more proof that marecon is the reason /mlp/con is dying.
>>43300275Why don't we merge MareCon and /mlp/Con together and make a week long con?
>>43300296There would be a better chance of inventing a time machine, going back, and stopping marecon being created in the first place.
>>43300275Nothing to do with marecon and everything with it being in february, so its better for me. I'm sure summerfags prefer mlp con./mlp/con's bigger problem is how close it is to marefair, so most of the usual artists and whatnot are busy with marefair to help with mlp con now.
Panels submitted.
>>43300460I think these other cons sprung up specifically to target and destroy /mlp/con!
>>43301293Corp started Mare Fair to eliminate Twifag and his /mlp/con.
is there still much room in the schedule?going to lock in and submit my crapload of panels over the next few weeks hereor maybe just like two to start and then I'll fill up more time later if nobody else takes it
>>43301877There's plenty of room on Sunday at Cytube 2, there's even space on Saturday night
>>43300300I don't think anyone here could stop the people who whined about /mlp/con being an offboarder con organized by a secret cabal who wants to push EQG into children or whatever and how they needed a truly /mlp/ bred convention made by and for REAL anons (whom bailed out before the 1st edition even took place)
>>43301877There looks to be tons of space everywhere, anon.
whats the most interesting thing that happened last year? I wasn't around then
Is antithology still going to happen? They can't keep a thread up to save their lives.
Just submitted my panel. /mlp/con Plays /mlp/! Cytube chat takes control of a browser instance open to /mlp/ and has to complete various goals whilst coordinating their efforts to write a single coherent shitpost. The more people, the better. Be there or be a faggot3:45 - 4:45 PM EST Sunday Cytube 1.
>>43303160Sounds really fun!
>>43303160Sounds like a setup for an overly elaborate tech support scam. Count me in.You better be hosting it in a VM, with spoofed location.
>>43303160Oh no. We are not solving the captcha, are we?
>>43303026I hope we have one, even short, we don't need all antithologies to be over an hour long.
>>43302546BITCH YOU GOT BEAN'D
>>43303160>Just submitted my panel.>/mlp/con Plays /mlp/!>implying that now is a good time to try and do "remote machine" ponyposting as a group effort>implying i won't just beat the shit out of you with dice like last timeI accept your challenge.>Cytube chat takes control of a browser instance open to /mlp/ and has to complete various goals whilst coordinating their efforts to write a single coherent shitpost.>The more people, the better. Be there or be a faggotOh no, it's on shittube? Sorry, can't be there.Quite honestly, I hope and pray it goes well. But I don't see things going smoothly as long as /I'm/ browsing. Sure you don't want to postpone it?Irregardless, I hope things are going well for Nisaba. Unfortunately cytube is not working on my computer.Good luck, I'm going to take my "free pass" since I fucked that ass already.
>>43303819Why are you so mean?
>>43303824>Why are you so mean?It's sink or swim these days, anon. A dark spot that won't go away in the corner of your eye until you look at it. The world spins, the sun shines on each new day, but the shadow is never far. ^:)
>>43291039>/election-tourist/conOh fucking boy.
>>43299926I was not, but holy shit this site is perfect, I wanted to download, edit and prepare a list of songs, but this site has most any songs! There were a couple of pony adjacent songs that I'm missing, but I can suck it up. Can we hear each other sing? Do you know if there's a maximum amount of people per room?
>>43299926>>43303893Hmm, reading through the >Discord, it seems like the multiplayer function is fucked. Still, this is a huge help, I could just stream from jitsy and let anons sing via voice call. Thank you again anon, I didn't even know this existed
>>43301990>there's even space on Saturday nightDidn't I ask for that space for the karaoke?ocoGenuinely asking, I thought I did but I don't remember
Submitted a panel. Another oral storytelling time for (You). Together we'll understand what comes of best laid plans Of Men and Mares. I don't know if this'll be four hours like last year. Didn't get much feedback so I can only guess it'll be good background noise.
>>43303943Hey! I always enjoyed your storytime. Looking forward to it.
>>43303819Do you think I'm someone you know? This is my first /mlp/con panel. Who the fuck is Nisaba?
>>43303924Check the schedule ( mlpcon.online ) karaoke panel appears on Friday night (or very early Saturday, if you count that as "Saturday night")Anyways, there are two cytubes, so one might be occupied with your panel while the other is free, meaning there's space available.And remember that what's "saturday night" for you might be different for others depending on their time zone.For example, your panel is at 3 AM for me, but for others it might be 6 AM or even midnight.
>>43303943>>43304795I just saw how Saturday is all booked up. You can keep it off schedule, I'll just turn it into a video or do something else. Friday also seems to be the same.
>43304632>Do you think I'm someone you know? This is my first /mlp/con panel. Who the fuck is Nisaba?Holy b8. Fuck off.
>>43304795Alright, just checked. These times are fine, thank you!

Emergency bump
will snacks and drinks be provided?
>>43307607Make a before-flight checklist and an agenda for the panel, put plush horse wife on desk as your OBS operator and autism mental support, if you're extra dedicated you could have a "rehearsal" on your own the day before so you'll have better timing.As for tech, pretty please record locally, especially if you intend to stream elsewhere than YT (do it anyway, even if you'll use YT). Shit happens, having a copy on streamer's side is best bet for archival.Thanks in advance, panelanon, you'll do great.
/mlp/con is so close!
>>43309468Thanks, Twilight, I didn't even think of doing a checklist. That will probably help my nervousness. And I'll definitely record a local copy and put it up on Pony.Tube later.
>>43309192There will be cookies and punch by the door.
>>43309468You can stream on other places that are not youtube?
