Marriot.
Post the number now.
PARTY IS AT THE MARRIOTT. ROOM 223.
HN fucked up edition
>>27854059
Im talking with MARRIOTT. He/she/attack helecopter is waiting from the ok from his roomate
>>27854065
Okay, everything is settled? Rarifag, ceili, whoever else, any objections?
If Marriott falls though, I can cover.
Just pick a fucking place. I want to get shitfaced after I'm done sewing tonight
>>27854082
How big is the room
>>27854088
See >>27854065.
So anyone know if those security people found out where that dildo came from by hall c?
Will any of you fags be at Trotcon?
>>27854092
Large enough for around 15.
>>27854102
Holy fuck really? What kind of dildo was it?
Can someone confirm 223?
>>27854106
Theres probably going to be more than that going desu
>>27854110
a phallic one probably
>>27854093
I'll roll there in a couple hours. I'm sure it'll still be happening
>>27854105
Yarp. Plan to get equally shitty there
Fuck, Suite anon is no go
Shertatanon, you are our last hope if 223 is a no go
>>27854135
That sucks, but funny as shit
Im hearing of a 21+ conference room at the Hilton, can anyone explain?
I am i. Desperatext need of food so please text me if you need me
>>27854047
B.C. Basic Training
>>27854173
If you can, do it
>>27854173
Can't confirm alcohol allowed at Hilton.
1405 situation is 21+ And will be carded.
Bronies should host a party. Have EqD manage it. Stream it online.
>>27854191
So you are offering your room, Mobile?
>>27854195
You guys are too serious. Having this thread is a party enough. Ditch your chatroms and just have fun in here.
>>27854191
How big?
>>27854195
I have a small room with two double beds. VERY limited capacity. I'm okay for people to drop by and hang or drink but I don't have the space for a full party.
And I'm a bit of a cunt for volume control and portions because I don't have any water left to force on people who want to keep drinking after a limit. I don't want people throwing up or getting too drunk to walk.
>>27854206
But anon. This thread isn't alcoholic
223 is a fucking maintenance closet. Congrats, you fuck.
Hilton or Sheraton?
>>27854218
kek
So would you be able to host the party then?
>>27854216
You're right. It's not. It's years worth of fun moments that have been had. So why not continue having fun? You're better than to isolate your fellow anons here.
No rooms. No money spent. No alcohol limit. Just chill.
How big is Sheraton?
>>27854047
Crashing this gala.
>>27854244
better than nothing at this rate
I have room for about 15. But probably more want to come.
Fuck this. I'm going to the gala. See ya.
>>27854211
You sure sound like a a lot of fun.
>>27854232
Yes. What time?
There's a fucking memepool in line for the grand galloping gala. Just wearing a suit, Deadpool mask, and hat.
>>27854254
You have this thread. It's bigger than any other room and can fit everyone.
>>27854264
When can you?
>>27854257
Have fun at your high school dance. We'll be here when you get tired of sitting by the wall
>>27854245
If they let you in.
>>27854271
What time works for you?
>>27854284
Im not at bronycon, so i could say now. how long will it take you to get the room ready
>>27854284
As soon as possible anon, I'm waiting for a confirmation.
>>27854273
I know how to have fun nigga. Just spent 500 with friends and coleagues last week in a fair. Worth it.
This gala is a piece of cake. Come at me social challenges.
>>27854218
YES
I FUCKING DID IT
I FUCKING CHOSE A ROOM AT RANDOM AND YOU FOLLOWED
YOU'LL NEVER GET MY BOOZE
>>27854284
10pm is a very good time for me. Chelis is helping out. I can tweet this on the HN twitter too
>>27854312
Its not a suite, so idk if thats a good idea
>>27854294
>>27854301
>>27854312
I'm almost back. Will post room when I arrive. Would prefer you not Tweet it.
>>27854319
Lol ok we won't do that then
To the absolute gentleman who danced along with me to that cover of "Beat It" down in Bronypalooza, fucking thanks man. That made the whole con for me.
>>27854309
>>27854088
Top, finish my fuckin plush pls
>>27854353
How many anons are down there? Heading there now
WHAT'S THE FUCKING ROOM NUMBER, AND WHAT HOTEL
>>27854376
Motherfucker, my fingers are swollen and numb. But I'm still finishing off two before the party and more in the morning
Which is yours so I can push it up?
Who here is at HaH Con?
>>27854399
Marriott
I'm back. Sheraton, Room 510, BYOB because I'm one month too young, and if no one shows, I'm leaving for BronyPalooza at 10:15.
>>27854422
>Sheraton, Room 510
Thank you based anon
>>27854404
Octavia. I only ask because im leaving almost first thing in the morning, and i really would rather leave with her, but if it just isnt going to work, then ok.
>>27854422
You're hosting a beer party and you're not even legal?
>>27854422
Based, will try to be there soon.
>>27854422
Calling the Sheraton front desk to report underage drinking.
>>27854438
I'll get on it man. Need to kill off Coco and Starlight so I don't have to ship them, but I'll do Octavia when the vendor hall opens for vendors
>>27854441
No one else got their shit together.
In the interest of legality, I am not consuming a drop.
>>27854422
Will be there with some vodka in a few once I'm done
>>27854456
Many thanks, Top.
>>27854453
I'm not drinking an ounce.
>>27854422
>Underage drinking.
What a shit show this is. I'm out. Might even go there and report to the front desk directly. Brb. Going to bronypallooza.
>>27854476
Hotel won't care. If there's underage people and liquor together they will not like it.
Damn dude, is that it?
>>27854486
>literally no one plans this at all
>offer room to do a nice thing
>OH SHIT UNDERAGE DRINKING I'M CALLING THE COPS
If you were so keen on having this thing, plan it a bit better why don't you. Or would you rather I break the law and lie about my age?
The gala has literally 10 tables. The rest is panel seating and no dance floor.
Where's the Sheraton?
>>27854505
You can't just go around people begging to be a good samaritan.
Talk to me once you know how to be mature.
>>27854525
Fine, then, don't come.
>>27854542
ill be there after dinner
Rarifag, chelis, anything?
>>27854600
Im here in california and i have not heard word of anything yet. Theres a room at the sheraton if you want to test your luck
Such edgyness
>>27854614
Someone photoshot a MAGA hat on the guy. I heard he looooooooooooooooooooooooves the trumpenator
>>27854614
But well done
>>27854542
Can confirm, here now. We may be looking for somewhere else.
Where the fuck are we meeting? These planning threads are so fucked
>>27854649
So far six people.
Somebody wanted photos in the last thread and I guess I can dump some. A few may not be pony related though so watch out.
Some guys just threw a rainbow dash head in our elevator and told us to put it in the trash later. Kek
>>27854698
>I want to finger rainbow dash
>>27854422
My man. Oncertainly I finish my sandwich I'll be right over
I'm gonna be in the arcade if anyone is around.I'm 20 so I can't go drinking.
Fair amount here, how goes 1405?
Have a MAGA fluttershy
>>27854681
I think I'm gonna show. Just gotta take a shit first.
>>27854047
literally no one important came to the bronycon
no major VA's, no writers, no Meghan an not even Big Jim
It's just cringe and autism
>>27854715
Where is sheraton exactly?
>>27854731
>NO MAJOR VA's
Are you fucking retarded the whole M6 was here. Like their panel was cringe and better writers could a showed up like Haber but hot damn the lineup this year was STACKED
>>27854738
It's the hotel connected to the con building.
>>27854749
That's the Hilton

>>27854765
Exactly where worst pony belongs
>>27854702

>>27854778
No but it doesn't happen a lot.
>>27854797

>>27854797
Went back for my friend. See you guys soon.
Wouldn't be Bronycon without fucking up the party planning!
It's tradition!
>>27854871
Fuck. Im so dead
So is Sheraton party kill?
Everyone is moving from sheraton to convention center. Stand by for more info.
>>27854897
We're all moving to the Green Break Room together.
5 more will come. We just need to pay for our dinner, then pick up booze
>>27854912
What is that? Alcohol allowed?
>>27854912
Are you guys still in the green room?
>>27854912
Where is the Green Break Room
>>27854982

>>27854989
At the green room, wearing a Jaxonian shirt. Which table are you guys in?
>>27854989
Booze at the green room?
>>27855044
It's literally a cooldown room for people who use the green card.
>>27855068
Still doesn't answer the question
We're here in the Green Room, party is semi-rip at the moment.
>>27854438
>>27854472
Oy. Octavia fag
So good news and bad news.
I came back from dinner now to try to put together your plush. Can't find the other fucking ear. If it's not at my booth tomorrow, then I might have left it at home. If that's the case, I'll ship it all to you. Really sorry about this man.
>>27854047
I found a room everyone. It's not much but it will have to do.
>>27854792

The gala is legitamatley a lot of fun.
>>27855377
Post pics then.
>>27855146
She was great, at the Grand Galloping Gala they had a 60s music section and halfway through either Miserlou or I Get Around, the camera zoomed into her hula hooping.
Also the whole thing is currently pretty cringey, but still enjoyable. It's like a guilty pleasure. Also watching Dominos Anon with the Principal Celestia cutout.
>>27855422
>Dominos Anon with the Principal Celestia cutout
Wait, he got in?
>>27855432
Hes pretty chill. I met him and sombra.
Be careful tomorrow guys, police scanner is talking about potential massed BLM protests

Yeah, apparently he bs'd about emailing Bronycon months ago and they said it was ok.
They seem pretty lax about it, because none of the staff want to deal with someone sperging out if they really were allowed. Also many people don't know the difference between 'cosplay' and 'formal cosplay'.
>>27855634

It's been a wild weekend so far. Most folks are genuinely fun, but there have been a handful that were moderate to severe cringe. Usual con crowd, honestly. We've been having a good time.I was worried, since my only exposure to the fandom has been you degenerate fucks. As it turns out, the vast majority of bronies are decent folks.
Cheers for a decent con, faggots.
>>27855911
Don't believe any of them. We're actually completely autistic and non-functional but we decided to pull a prank this year and act more civilized than any BLM nigger currently residing in Baltimore.
Normally by now we would all be breaking out our horses and little girls in our patented rape dungeon.
>>27855349
I liked rarifag better when he was a doorman
The party was shit, if you planned on drinking this isn't that kind of party. Sorry for crushing dreams.
>>27855349
Wait I'm confused.
This morning there were so many pretty looking and well-adjusted young adults getting ready for the con, and now this 'party' room is full of old fat guys and little boys
So /mlp/, having compared BronyCon 2013 to this year's, I can't help but be a bit worried the fandom might be dying. I'm being honest and I'm not fishing with the "hurr ded fandumb" meme. What are your thoughts?
What's going on under the table /MLP/?
>>27855943
We have booze now, you left too early
>>27855992
Explain your reasons for feeling this. Is the con smaller? Are there less people there?
Sorry guys, not attending this year.
>>27856005
why does that look like Michelle Creber?
>>27856028
Last few years all the halls have been pretty packed. This year the halls are very clear. Doesn't seem like many in attendance this year.
>>27855992
The Fandom IS dying
The con feels just as packed as the 14 one.
>>27856044
It's a very large convention center and with the change in their layout their is less congestion overall.
>>27855432
Hell ya we got in and we had a blast. Except when security told me I couldn't wear my mask.>>27855443

Also someone requested a picture of the mane 6 bunny girls in the chat. Here's one of them.
>>27856200
Shit costume, nothing matches.
>>27855992
I'm not there myself, but I definately feel that way. I'm pretty sure the only people who are still on board at this point are the newfags and the lifers.
Does anyone feel like there was a huge drop-off after S5? I felt really good about the future after the finale, but now it seems more uncertain than ever.
I'm probably just spoiled by 2012, pone is still more active than just about other single children's cartoon show fandom, but it still feels like such a step down.
>>27856243
It's a natural progression of every fandom. You get to a high point when it's new and in the limelight because there's a lot of people who just flit from one thing to the next. Eventually they move on and you end up with a smaller dedicated fanbase that likely won't leave until it's over, and even then they may not.
So the fandom isn't dying, it's just settling into normalcy.
>>27856028
Hey, original anon here. "OP" isn't the right word but it's the closest I suppose. So yeah, as the other anon pointed out attendance does seem thinner (and had a nice counterpoint of the con occupying more space), for me it just comes more down to the vitality of the con itself. BC13 had a ton of unique original panels, most of them literally full to the point of staff turning incoming people away (myself included). BC16 had some amazing panels (mane6 voice panel, art panel held a little while ago, etc) but some just seemed really boring and straight up "u wot lad" (like panels that had barely anything pony-related). And I suppose that's another major thing I'm feeling, is that now it seems that the con is less focused on pony itself and more on what pony has become, like artists at BronyPalooza playing generic fucking ass EDM that has nothing to do with pony. I remember BC13 had the EileyMonty panel, Dr Horrible panel, and people singing super loudly in halls, pinkie pie cosplayers jumping up and down yelling fun, the cosplays were better, and the autismo levels seemed far less (though perhaps that's because I didn't interact with as many people then as now). It just feels like a hollowed carcass of what it once was. BC16 had plenty of great things like VAs, but the state of the fandom itself worries me. Case point about panels: the sobering up panel, and the accessibility at cons panel, to name a couple. Like, excuse me, what? Are we really that low on content and desperate enough to include this shit on the lineup? I mean no offense to people who relate to these fields, but I say keep an MLP con MLP related. Plus a ton of content creators seems scared shitless nowadays of Hasbro's banhammer, as if their legal department is waiting in the shadows to burst out with red capes, cheesy intro lines, and paperwork. Why?

>>27856243
Orig anon here, I pretty much agree with your entire post. 2012 golden age, 2015 dropoff (why?), and the lifer/newfag thing.

>>27856354
It's hard to say what will happen. Look at shit like Transformers where they went through huge spans of times with no new shows or anything and yet they still had BotCon every year (until now) and there was always fans.
Thankfully for us it doesn't look like the show will end anytime soon.
So has anything noteworthy happened or been announced or is this just another gathering of the autists?
>>27854614
>>27856371
There will never be new announcements at this conventions because they are not Hasbro approved. SDCC and HasCon are where you will see new info.
Bronypalooza was fun
>>27856260
>and even then they may not
Yeah, anyone who thinks the fandom will ever go away completely should remember that there's still a Jemcon.
I don't give a shit if we're "dying" and the cons are becoming less vibrant because I'll still try and go to every on until they stop completely. There were some factors that lead to the potential decrease in people this year, and what many people don't seem to realize is that MLP doesn't sit stagnant like most cartoons. Is the show just head in the "wrong" direction and some may have gotten bored of it entirely? Maybe, but it could've gone anywhere and ended up just as worse. Plus like >>27856283 said, there weren't many original panels like there were in 2013.
I wouldn't say we are kidding ourselves by stating things are "dying," however things have changed a lot over the past couple of years.
>>27856403
I'm assuming there won't be for long since BotCon got their walking papers.
>>27856404
Not a lot of new blood filtering in as the original autists leave for more autistic fandoms to sate their homolust
>>27856412
The fact that we saw a pretty noticeable slowing of /mlp/ when Steven Universe came out proves this. Some people just only want to be involved in the newest and coolest thing.
>>27856422
A lot of people were Hot Topic fans- people who saw it was a thing in their cool edgy mall store, stuck around for a bit, then filtered out as other shows overtook the former shelf space. It's a natural progression of fandoms and not everyone is going to stick to one thing, but it is a going concern for the convention scene at minimum.
>>27856438
What I don't comprehend is that if SU really stole MLPs thunder then why was con attendance so good last year and presumably not now? Other than that Splatoon and Undertale not many people should be gone.
>>27856438
I first came into first hand contact with poni via facebook, and that was what soured me more than anything else. I thought the ponies were cute the moment I saw them, but dealing with the people that took the shitposting that came concurrently with the start of the fandom seriously was awful.
>>27856471
I'm not believing the low con attendance for this year. I'll wait till we hear official numbers.
>>27856041
Because it is anon.
>>27856497
Me too. And even if it's slightly lower than that of last year it still wouldn't mean much, if anything.
9,250-10,100 is what I'm predicting.
>>27856411
But Botcon didn't end due to lack of attendance though right? Wasn't it some legal/bureaucracy thing with Hasbro?
>>27856422
Yeah, I remember then a lot of now former bronies were saying things like "SU does MLP better than MLP!", even though the two shows are not even remotely similar.
>>27856471
A lot of people hopped on to MLP during its second or third season, why not SU?
>>27856526
Right since there is definitely a plateau. Bot Con never got that high and that show has way more material.
>>27856530
Bot Con is getting absorbed/rolled into/replaced by the soon to be HasCon.
>>27856526
I was told it was about 8000 this year according to an ops person.
Who /gopher/ here?
>>27856548
And still one day left. So over 10k is likely.
>>27856376
Yeah but we've had VAs and writers let little things slip in the past.
Who is this faggot that came in here? Keeps calling it Ponycon, and acting like he runs the fucking show.
Party was fun.
I got to dicuss the sexual assault death mech and its automati dildo cannon.
>>27856530
>A lot of people hopped on to MLP during its second or third season, why not SU?
I guess they don't realize that they can be fans of both shows.At least our fandom had a con by its 2nd season though.
>>27856243
So bronycon lost attendence this year because of scheduling (near the fourth/other cons) i don't think con attendence is down. But the content is down. A lot of the artists that move from flavor of the month to the next left and a lot of artists need inspiration to keep them going so they move on naturally.
Many of the people left are autists who find acceptance with the weirdos and lifers like us that really enjoyed the trolling and memes but have lives outside this (or don't ) we've been touched by this shit and will stay forever. We need to make more content.
As far as cons, a hierarchy solidified. Yes the content creators are all B listers now but also the con chairs and their favorite guests have calcified. There's a hierarchy there that lacks the dynamism of the early fandom. Now people are afraid to offend or try something new and no one wants to lose power.
Our best days are behind us but the fandumb is still strong. Especially considering it's just from one show.
Anyone know where we can keep our suitcase after check out from the hotel?
>>27856813
The front desk.
Thanks for coming to the party guys! Just what we needed to make this day great. Hope you guys enjoy Jaxonian/fapplebloom and Harryclopper filling out requests. Have a good night /mlp/!
Uploaded wrong video earlier, here's a better version.
https://youtu.be/GjymvFTCcw8
Look who i found
>>27856553
Nobody buys Sunday passes from the con. People trade their three day passes. The time this year sadly wasn't right, but attendance was alright. I think they banked too much on having all VAs and people paying out the ass for a weekend pass. Once again, shoutout to GooOood friend, John Brady for the free pass. You spent 77 on me bud, I'll pay you back
That was a fun party, but I'm going to bed now and hope I wake up early enough to enjoy the rest of the con.
>>27856742
I agree 100%
>>27856888
bepsi-man?
>>27856742
I feel like the con is for the fandom now, not for the show.
>>27857134
It always was.
>>27856283
>artists at BronyPalooza playing generic fucking ass EDM that has nothing to do with pony.
This irked me too. The only other bronycon I went to was 2014, but even then I remember hearing a good bash of pony-themed music. The latest con I went to was literally all full of generic underground shit so starving musicians can try and land some fame (though I'm not sure going around pony cons is the best way to go at it)
Anybody here go as /mlp/-tan or any other tans?

Wish I could be there. Have fun you crazy faggots.
Last time I was there I don't remember much of anything. A few shots of partying and drinking shots out of a horse penis or something, rest is fuzzy
Next year.

B-but that's incest! Brothers and sisters aren't allowed to be romantically involved. Not even at night when everyone else is asleep.
