    Heya Everypony! YA MISS ME?

    GOOD MONDAY EVERYPONY! Due to a lack of internet from our resident two tailed fox, and a lack of I don't know what since my skype is busted, I'm taking charge and writing the CP this fine day! Why? Because I can! Since I can't see the staff skype, I'll just post links to fun and wondermuffin things I've found perusing the site! It is a COMMUNITY post after all!

    BUCK it all!
    First off, selfish self promotion! Tyro has made it that I am able to go to BUCK this year! For those that don't know, BUCK is a british pony convention in Manchester held in August. I was lucky to go to the very first, but haven't been since. This year Tyro has given me the role in helping him do the EP event, and as such I get free pass! What is this EP event you ask?

    SUPER SMASH BROS. BRAWL! That's right everypony! Hosting another Smash tournament this year, however this time you'll have ME to contend with! WAHAHAHAHA! Think your Ness makes a mess of the rest? Think you'll be Donkey King? Want to let others get a pikachu? (Pikachu, peek at you, get it? I'm so clever :trixieftw:) Come find us (details pending) at BUCK and put your SMASH to the test! Check out the BUCKcon thread here for information, finding out who's going and general hype!

    I'll be waiting for you~

    Are Earth Ponies inferior? Personally I think they're awesome. All that lack of wings and magic means they can put all their effort into whatever they want! Applejack didn't learn to run the farm looking in some magicky book, I'll tell you that for sure! Click the link to share your opinion and see what others think!

    Frost is on a quest for good steam games! Ones that shine without breaking the bank! I know I'll be looking through that thread myself for a good bargain or two, so whether you have a suggestion or want to see what others recommend, go and check it out! If you're into PC gaming then I certainly recommend it!

    We have two game reviews for you guys to look at! Firstly we have Rarit E's review of Infamous Second Son. I've not been that into the infamous series, it not being on anything I can play it on, but I like reviews so if you're interested, go see what Rarit thinks! Secondly this talented fox has written a review of Broken Age Act 1! From the hour or so I played of it, I found it was a beautiful game, and you all know how well this fox can drone on so go and check it out! It also includes one of the best quotes I've ever read!

    Nerdus Pegasus is being true to his name competing in a Science Olympiad! I used to do quite well in science, then I stopped getting competent teachers. *low grumble* But it's awesome to see someone doing well in an awesome field, and they even won a medal! Go congratulate them! Go! Do it now! WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE? GO AND CELEBRATE THEIR ACHEIVEMENT!

    ...too loud?

    Finally, this handsome devil has started a game design blog! Watch this courageous soul go through the perilous journey that is designing and building a game! Watch as his creative genius is tested time and time again, each time being overcome with the will that is often reserved only for heroes sung in ancient songs! Will her cleverness, his humility ever be rewarded even when she switches his gender with every single pronoun? Check in every saturday to find out!

    [size=-2]Real smooth there Vulpine *brohooves self*[/size]

    That's your lot for this week! Will I return again? Will Tyro be back to spread his own madness? WILL I EVER GET MY HUGS? Find out next week, on EVERYPONY COMMUNITY POST NUMBER NINTEY THREE: RETURN OF THE FOX!

    I'm being serious, DID YOU MISS ME?!?

    I'm not sure I can miss you given I really don't even know who you are, but for the sake of politeness: Yes, yes I did.

    For that alone, I give you an internet cookie. Be careful though, there's clickers about intent on turning that into billions more!

    But chip, you're forgetting that the CP is where you're SUPPOSED to go mad with power!

    Also, I love how next to nobody has actually commented on what's in the CP, just that I wrote it! I must just be that applebucking good! :trixieftw:

    You know what would be fun? If random people periodically got to do community posts. It would certainly add some variety to the mix, and assuming the content was mod-approved could just be a neat thing to do.

    We have talked about it but no one seems to volunteer. If you're interested, PM me and I'll forward it to the staff!

    The only potential issue in my doing a community post is that it will - most likely - be the single most terrifying or most incomprehensible community post ever made. Honestly, when I'm not scared of the things I say, it's mostly because I have no idea what it is I am saying.

    Having non-mods try to write the CP is pretty neat idea. I know Wintermute would make a great writer for it. ;D
    I mean, I'm pretty good at deciphering ramblings. I think.

    Thanks for the mention, by the way.

    Maybe on CP's with actually relevant and important staff info. Most of the time, CP's just tend to be links to things that are going on in the community.

    It's a great idea! Just leave the super important stuff to the staff.

    I'd love to start writing these again!

    I just burst out laughing in the middle of McDonalds. The couple with the Big Macs won't stop glaring at me now. Well played, Rarit. Well, played.

    Very nice Post Foxy! We should let you do them more often.

    I just realized that you're dressed as a red medic in your picture too! That adds a whole new level of funny in this! I should find that pic of me as the Pyro... I wonder if that was coloured?

    The entire staff should get TF2 themed avatars. For a week or so. TF2 staff week or something of the like.
