draioct: It's been a while, so I figured I'd come on and say "Hello". I'm excited about Midwest Furfest and all of the great pony content that'll be showing up this year :D

draioct: @clayinthecarpet Easy. I run panels at -several- conventions I go to, across the country. After I run panels, the cons get information from Hasbro (and things that neither they nor I can share, publicly), and I get informed of their responses. Plus, I cheat... I know a few people on the *inside*

draioct: @rarity Oh,. it's completely coincidence! I never shared that particular game design with more than 4 people, and I don't think they saw enough to build the system off of it. But, I DO know that Hasbro's been watching me...

draioct: @rarity Actually, I don't know if you heard of the official MLP card game that they tested out at GenCon this year... But it's actually about %75 similar to another game system I devised when the show came out, but shelved the idea due to copyright restraints... Now I'm both happy and sad, because one of my ideas was thought good enough for Hasbro, but I'm so sad that I can't claim credit XP

draioct: @redenchilada Yeah, there's a group in the Western US that took my game, and changed all the roles to the characters from the show, which is highly dangerous, because not only did they steal my game, but they MADE it copyright infringing. They could, in all honestly, get ME shut down, because they were too lazy to just get my permission

draioct: @spytim Actually, one of my games "Are You a Changeling?" is a party game, like Lupis in Tabula, Mafia, or Are You A Werewolf? And the rest of them are tabletop RPGs, like DnD

draioct: @rarity Thanks! "Are You A Changeling?" is actually printed, and being sold at cons I go to, and if you look at the pictures on the website, you can see that they make mention of no copyritten characters, nor contain images of them! :D

draioct: @rarity I've been on a major social networking hiatus for a while. Been a full time student workin' on my psych degree, and running Equestria Inspired (which this site has a link to, here on the front page!) and mostly developing and playtesting the games I mentioned several posts back!

I'm actually the guy who ran ALL of the MLP content there for the past several years, and I've finally conned a few other local Bronies to run some side panels! Plus, all of the tabletop gaming I'll be running there like "Are You A Changeling?", Inspireland, MLP: TOON, @MassEffect : Unity (all are which games I've developed, personally!), it's going to be a blast!
