    So as many of you know now I gave a formal presentation about My Little Pont FiM in front of my class and just over night it created 2 new bronies.

    One of them was a online friend and most the most loyal fan of my Youtube channel. He had been following me since long before I found out about MLP probably 2 years. I was of course worried if he would be able tolerate my channel now being 100% ponies. He continued to watch and enjoy my videos despite him havn't never watch MLP.

    After he saw my Presentation video, he finally decided to watch an episode of MLPFiM, he said he really liked it. I'm sure by the time he gets to episode 4 he will say he loves it.

    The second person was someone from my class. Unfortunately though he was actually the guy who I find the most annoying and unlikable. So rather then celebrating the conversion I was thinking, oh man why did it have to be him. He's so irritating even talking about MLPFiM with him is unenjoyable. Maybe it will get better once he has see more then a few episodes and he can know what he is talking about.

    Shame it couldn't be one of my close friends, it would be so cool to be able to fan out about it with them. I think I am close to convincing one cool guy in the class cause he keeps mentioning it to me.

    He asked me where he could buy a shirt like mine (Fluttershy shirt). But I wasn't sure if he was talking about an MLP shirt or if he just wanted to know what website he could find a shirt he likes on.

    I was acting for a practice shoot at school and sound asked me to test my mike to I went 'testing, testing, testing' Then the cool guy who was floor manager said 'talk about something'. I said 'like what?' Then he said 'talk about My Little Pony'.

    It's only been the day after my presentation, so maybe in a week's time more people will have decided to watch it.

    Wohoo! I just got another one. One of my most loyal subscribers, just sent me a message thanking me for introducing her to this 'beautiful show'. Inspired once again from my presentation. That makes 3.

    Um.... okay I shouldn't be keeping score, that will make me sound like some douchebag womaniser keeping score. I honestly did not expect to convert anypony, at least not this quickly.

    damn keeping score again.

    I'll keep you updated. It's only been a little over 40 hours since I posted my presentation.

    Sorry I have to bump this because I have something new to report.

    I could have made a new IRL brony. I'll find out tomorrow. Because the guy I was talking about in the first post that keep mention MLP to me, told me he is curious and is going to watch it tonight. I gave him the ultimate advice of ultimate destiny. Don't make up your mind until episode 4.

    It may not be a sure bet.

    My best friend still doesn't like the show, although we had a good chat about it today and he is completely cool with me loving it. I even confessed that I go on forums and check Equestria Daily and explained it was about more then just the show. I am completely out of the stable. Well I suppose I still won't tell the rest of my class and strangers the extent to which I'm involved in the fandom.

    Setzertrancer, good job on converting.

    I think my friend may become a brony. He brings the show up in conversion and keeps asking "are you buying a pony today".

    Great job, Setzer! I wish I could have the confidence you have. I want to tell my friend about it, but I'm scared of his reaction. The words fumble in my mouth. Anyway, congratulations!!

    I still haven't got anyone to convert over, but I got my brother to watch one full episode. He hates the show, so I got some progress on him.

    Good job Stezer. =)

    4 for me, two were anonymous users (I was messing around on Omegle, and they became genuinely interested in the show). The other two were open minded and nice people before hand though. Both now have accounts here now. Although, I'm not sure I fully converted I_Ride_Ponies, as he kind of wanted to see the show before I even mentioned it. Like me, I think we was a natural born brony.
