!vancouverbronies I'll try to make sure everything important on the forum gets posted here. I just felt it's easier to catch up on relevant things in a forum rather than a stream.

@spectrumflash !vancouverbronies Oh wow! Let's get a Vancouver Bronies forum up and running on a critter.net domain then!
-
@jackzhang !Vancouverbronies or make it a forum for all !bcbronies?
-
@spectrumflash !vancouverbronies Yeah, it started out as Vancouver only, but there are Victoria Bronies too and some in the interior. Maybe BC is a better bet.

!Vancouverbronies so about the BBBQ thing. we don't have any official planners for it. maybe we should try and get people in charge of this meetup/event first. i volunteer on planning it. we'll discuss this over skype or something. right now we're still finding out the best date and location. we'll also cover the highschool exam issues. after that, we'll find out how many are attending. and then expenses. i think this will be fun. we'll talk about ponies. we'll also get a chance to know each other more. so please let me know if you wanna help out. message me on rdn or on facebook. McRyll is the name. http://www.facebook.com/groups/399904186700708/

@mcbrony !vancouverbronies I'll start the planning with you by finding and agreeing on a good location. Transit is the key.

@therealscoutaloo !bcbronies Unless the official post from them on EqD is false, then we are indeed SOL. This is what happens when plans aren't made immediately upon tickets being available to cons. I didn't think brony-related cons would be of this nature (unlike BlizzCon which sells out in literally 1-2 seconds), but the fandom is getting big enough to warrant ultra-fast preparation. Too bad; Tabitha is going and she NEVER goes to cons.
-
@garyoak @therealscoutaloo !bcbronies The EqD post is, indeed, true. The con website will reflect this as soon as the webmaster is able to update

@mattet !vancouverbronies yooo! you must be that guy from calgary. welcome to RDN!
-
-
@afancorp !vancouverbronies It's the Bamboo Cafe just across from Joyce Skytrain station. Remember to buy something from the cafe as a courtesy. A can of pop is enough, it doesn't have to be much.

!bcbronies Apparently Everfree NW just sold out, and I hadn't gotten the chance to get a ride/hotel split settled with anyone, so I didn't pick up a ticket. =\
Tuesday, 29-May-12 02:38:05 UTC from web-
@garyoak I didn't get one either, I was and still am broke on cash so didn't grab one when I had the chance.
-
@thepuzzldpirate Let us drown our sorrows in (cheap) alcohol. Or something. D:
-
-
!vancouverbronies Don't forget, those attending this Saturday's meetup will need to help in planning our Cos & Effect Pinkiequest.
Tuesday, 29-May-12 02:21:21 UTC from web -
!vancouverbronies Anybody going to Everfree? I need people to share a hotel with and (possibly) get a ride with to seattle thursday night and back sunday evening. Can anyone help a brony out? My previous plans might not work out.
Tuesday, 29-May-12 01:57:27 UTC from web-
@cracky keep me posted bro
-
@cracky Are you going to be at the bbq? I need to start planning hotel stuff soon
-
@tjdetweiler I'l be at the BBQ, I can get back to you on that then!
-
-
!vancouverbronies in the Facebook group we're planning a Brony Barbecue. Please vote/add options to the polls.

@bronymike !vancouverbronies This is the Facebook link. http://www.facebook.com/groups/399904186700708/
-
!vancouverbronies For everyone that doesn't have a Facebook account tag me in a post with where and when you want the Barbecue. So far the suggestions for beaches have been Jericho Beach and Kits Beach.
-
@balthazar !vancouverbronies It's all about transit accessibility, not all of us drive. Weather is another factor too.

-
!vancouverbronies +1 on having any events that come out of the forum posted here - I'd rather not have to keep up with three different fora not to miss anything. I have enough things I don't keep up with as it is.
Monday, 28-May-12 21:09:30 UTC from web -
!vancouverbronies I just threw up a forum at http://1bitgamer.com/vancouverbronies. There's nothing there right now, although I'll probably be setting things up through my math class right now.

@yeah568 We've established a domain name and setup a forum on that domain now. Feel free to join at bcbronies.org

!vancouverbronies @echron1000 did the blogspot site and we basically abandoned it after we settled that Saturday was the meetup day from then onwards. http://vancouverbronies.blogspot.ca/ We still need a forum. Anyone know how to run a SMF Forum? The code for it is supposedly free, you just need to run it on a server.
Monday, 28-May-12 08:19:07 UTC from web-
!vancouverbronies @jackzhang I can throw up a forum tonight or tomorrow when I get a chance.
-
-
@jackzhang !bcbronies I don't really see the need for a forum, but if you guys wind up making one, at least promise me that any events being planned will still at least be mentioned in detail on here.
Monday, 28-May-12 08:29:38 UTC from web -
!Vancouverbronies Whatever happened to that meetup blog someone made a few months ago?
Monday, 28-May-12 07:23:19 UTC from web-
@seanprice !vancouverbronies I guess it's not being updated. Honestly, a forum (that we own) works better for actual meetup stuff/planning. I know for a fact the local fur community has their own forum where they plan tons of stuff not usually publicly known.

-
!vancouverbronies So I was in van for Saturday and half of Sunday home now but anyways was any bronies at adrenaline productions: bassbomb?

!vancouverbronies Hey Ocean is on YTV right now.

!vancouverbronies and just as I posted that, through a youtube search I also found TwiQuest: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3vUE30lVEk

!vancouverbronies Vancouver PINKIE/RARITYQUEST at Cos & Effect from August 24-26th it is! The Plan: To do exactly (and maybe more of) what PINKIEQUEST in Seattle did for PAX a while back, except here in Vancouver. We will need 2 giant printed out versions of Pinkie Pie and Filly Rarity with her horn dragging her to her destiny and we will do this for a whole day on the UBC grounds at Cos & Effect this year. To those unfamiliar with the Seattle PINKIEQUEST, see this Youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IY9eyuZ7oE

!vancouverbronies Dead in the water again... 2nd time I've tried to organize it and it falls flat. If the two major organizers of the group disagree, there's no way we can get enough participation. I blame both the British tourism bureau and that live lipdub for me getting trying to get this back up and running. Heck, they had a IRL PINKIEQUEST in Seattle a while back.
Monday, 28-May-12 01:04:33 UTC from web-
@jackzhang !bcbronies Yeah, I was at that. It was at the same time as a major convention and was a pretty awesome time. I'm not saying it's a bad idea, I'm just saying I wouldn't be involved. Likewise I think the PNE Suits idea is stupid and I don't like paintball because it's too expensive. Doesn't mean I'm vehemently against them being done, I'm just saying to be careful about planning and that I probably won't be involved. Sorry I keep crapping on your plans. You've gotta explain what you mean by "flash mob" in more depth, though, since I think the term covers a fairly broad spectrum. Pinkiequest worked because it was done over a wide area, but each location just got it for a very short period. Most importantly, though, it was done under the banner of one of Seattle's biggest conventions, so instead of "Those obnoxious bronies", we would've been labelled "Those obnoxious geeks".
-
!vancouverbronies @jackzhang ya even if this idea takes off you can count me out, to me themed flash mobs like this are the epitome of obnoxious and i could never see myself being a part of one, not sure what everybody else's opinions on the matter are, so best of luck getting the numbers for this one dude
-
@bronymike !vancouverbronies So, I guess Cos & Effect would be a better place to do a Vancouver PINKIEQUEST or something similar. The PNE doesn't have as much walking room as UBC does, and it's the association thing.
-
-
!bcbronies When I was in high school I was the biiiiiiiggest hipster, all the time doing stuff "because it's cool" or "to confuse people", which is all fine and dandy, I just don't want the fandom's image becoming somehow endangered as a result. Point is, do what you want, just be careful. Also, I monologue too damn much on RDN, huh?
Monday, 28-May-12 01:58:50 UTC from web-
@bronymike Pff, I know a bunch of people who monologue on here more than you. Maybe not more per post, but definitely more overall.
-
-
!vancouverbronies Ok, scaling back, thinking about the PNE meetup, a more tame version of the PINKIEQUEST in Seattle might be something we want to attempt in addition to the suits. Any ideas?
Monday, 28-May-12 01:23:52 UTC from web -
!vancouverbronies Sorry guys, as of right now, this idea is dead again and remains just another wild thought in my head.
Monday, 28-May-12 01:06:04 UTC from web -
!bcbronies : I am with @bronymike on this one, Flash Mobbing is the farthest from keeping the peace. I don't mind having us being seen but that is quite different from forcing our hobby onto to people with a flash mob.
Monday, 28-May-12 00:49:58 UTC from web -
!bcbronies I still don't like flash mobs.
Sunday, 27-May-12 06:04:46 UTC from web-
@bronymike It's the one thing I can't get organized properly at the moment. Too many ifs, ands, and buts.
-
@bronymike !vancouverbronies Ask yourself "What would PinkiePie do"? I personally don't mind doing it as long as lot of bronies are there watching and enjoying it.
-
-
!vancouverbronies Preferably, the flash mob should happen the same day as the Season 3 premiere screening, those participating can then head directly to the screening.
Sunday, 27-May-12 00:24:14 UTC from web-
@balthazar !vancouverbronies I've personally wanted to do one for quite some time, then the idea came that we should plan it for the same day as the Season 3 premiere. Nothing is locked yet on that as I might have to talk to a few people about it.
-
@jackzhang !vancouverbronies Well I would totally be into that. I should really go to the meet ups. I don't know why I didn't go today.
-
@balthazar !vancouverbronies Most of the people decided to go to the paintball thing I'm assuming. there were only 4-5 core people left in the end. Next week might be bigger, IDK.
-
-
!vancouverbronies To those at the cafe meetup, this is what I envision our brony steadicam flash mob at Crab Park to be similar to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hc1D7ZaQ51s
Sunday, 27-May-12 00:21:00 UTC from web -
!vancouverbronies where is everybody? not many paintballers at the moment.
