Fillychan

The name is the minor thing, but if you plan to change it maybe "Funtasia Gazzette" sounds a nice one.
Another possibility is looking if there is some name from the setting for use it.

Yeah, I agree that is not a vital matter, but at the same time, I remembered that the first time I ran the Italian brony comunity and I needed to name it, I thought that I wanted something that reminded me a thing from the cartoon that I liked, instead of a general name like "MlP Ita" (and I went for the "Cutie mark crusaders").
So yes, the same here. I suggest something that reminds us something of our about what we do, than something done for joke or that reminds something else, and I grow the impression that "Daily", for some reasons, reminds too much the brony blog.
I think I'm wrong here, but also I wonder if give the impression to some outsider that FnD is run by the same staff of EqD just becouse the names are very similar, or that...

I waited some time to for summarize better this thing, becouse was better talk about that apart.

When I opened this post, I wasn't though much about the brony fandom or such, but more around pratical problem to run a blog; but if we thought that is an important point to touch, here some things that my experience tought.

There are two kinds of communities: those who venerate a common interest, and those who venerate themselves.

My second biggest interest is the retrogaming, and here the main things are the machines. If you do a new game, you can gain popularity, but you are perceived anyway as one of the crowd and your stuff an addition to other many things loved here. I want say: you aren't more important than the machines, that are at the center.
Usually this should be a community that venerates a common interest.

Brony fandom seems venerate its own self appointed celeberities and memes, sometimes disconnected from the show itself.
Hard tell why that happened. I'm not...

This is a necropost but I love Greyfeather's avatar.

That embed's not working for me, can you post the direct link?

That second video feels like a non-Filly song I know (and am not too fond of) but the chorus is nice and the collage is well-chosen.

Video errored?

This is how dark fairies look. (mesh: https://yadi.sk/d/kmm4r5XCyFXmT)
individual OCs:
Glowy - outcast, eye glow yellowy white, mane/tail black with yellow 'stars'. Talks quietly and rarely, likes to be alone in dark nooks of a building, sometimes staring at ponies glowing like a ghoul. If made mad, she snaps and plots quiet revenge with a complicated plan, but is otherwise friendly and has some skills.
Droplet - in camp, eye glow blue, mane/tail glow dark blue. Skips a lot of word parts so it's impossible to understand, water rumbling sound when talks. Healer and water keeper
Sparkser - obnoxious wandering outcast. Electricity power, buzzing when glowing with yellow/white/blue sparks. Makes and sells batteries. Often accidentally starts fires or causes damage for science (as uses to overload something that doesn't work, with energy until it breaks)
Highlight - is a camp guardian and leader. Stretches accents on sentences, is somewhat cruel. Glows bright green.
Contrast - camp scout,...

hehe, this stuff could be great to put in Dwarf Fortress as mod, where you can add some absurd random stuff in a game that is already crazy :D. I'm not sure how many things can be introduced in the game, thought.

Sorry if I ask also this, for what do you like use this stuff? For the roleplay area?
Well, a lot of these ideas are crazy, but... I'm sure that could be improved furter in a surprising way, if we can work on them seriously.

What's really we need is think better what meaning should have this alternate "Fillychan" universe. Creating new stuff is easy, but link all togheter in a work that has charm, atmosphere, and every piece seems sewed seamless togheter.
I suggest to list what kind of features we like in Funtasia for starting. Themes as school life, friendship, adventures, magical crystals, etc, are all normal stuff in fantasy. But why you like/dislike them? What you find interesting and why?

Personally, I like that the horsies are used in a more...

Hey, tubes are a good idea, I'm good at 3D so that should be no problem. Thanks for your feedback and the warm welcome.

Oh hi!

A... Nyes?
Usually I keep an eye on this place, but in these months sometimes I stay out from the 'net for days and I too rarely post.
But I think we all agree that until the cartoon is on air, the board will remain dormint. Is hard speaking of a thing that isn't out yet, and the updates are so few that is hard speculate either.
The last dump of pre-production stuff on Funtasia Daily is great, but don't add much on what already discussed in previous weeks. Probably the Petunia thing is new, but I don't think is the case to spoil that stuff until the cartoon airs...

About me, usually I more active on Twitter and Facebook, and I cover more unicorn stuff in general. Usually I touch Funtasia stuff when there is something new, just not only that.

What interested you about Funtasia?
Initially I was curious the first time I saw that, but time and tasks forced me to postpone later to seek better it.

Melowy and Filly have a tier in my preferences, with Melowy having an advantage to...

What interested me in Funtasia? I don't really know, actually. I just watched the trailers and I liked them very much, especially Rose.

I suppose it's also because the hasdrones bashing on it and sending death threats to its fans that triggered my inner 'Well I'm gonna do it anyway', that might have added to it.

Google docs require a registration to access the file. Can you check the setting to look if the file can be downloaded without logging?
Devian'art should be an alternative, it don't require log to get the files.

I switched the settings to log-in only a while back, after I left some notes on the draft version. I've put it back to public now, but keep in mind the ending and rewrites are still in limbo. I'm not entirely happy with how it is right now, and the pony fanfic is kind of distracting me. I'll try to get it in order next week.

Okay, let's see if the reply doesn't get eaten this time.

*ahem*

Cedric would make a great tech card, Bella is kind of useless as a Shaman card except against Hunters, Willow is a neat anti-mage Rogue card (that is Rogue, right?), Thunderwitch Lynn would go straight into a Handlock running Fizzlebang, easily.

Rose makes for a nice combo finisher, and feels mostly balanced, like Ancient Mage was in some older Freeze Mage variants. Zack is super duper OP, though. There's Stampeding Kodo, repeated board wipes, and Taunts that can deal with it. In Control Warrior, too stronk.

Batti and the Mirror are very much underpowered as Hunter cards, but no one cares about any Hunters that aren't Face, anyways ;3

Blue Rainbow, again basically a tech card. Mystery Theft, same. Princess Sparkle looks interesting as some kind of combo enabler for Priest. Automatically punch through any Taunts, Unstable Ghoul and even Elven Archer get more utility. Still sort of underwhelming, I'd say. Maybe if...

Daw, thanks for the feedback!

I pretty much disregarded everything about the metagame when I was making these cards, and instead went with gut feelings and Filly lore.

Cedric is supposed to even the odds by making you and your opponent equal weapon-wise, like a fair knight that he is. Hopefully.

Bella is probably the most uninspired card of them all because I had no idea how to translate "I'm a hero!" into card mechanics*. Guess I should've given her Charge instead!

I wanted Willow to be an annoying prick who ruins your plans in a way you would never expect, so I gave him a never-seen-before disrupting mechanic. And Taunt, because that's what he would do. Taunt ya. And yep, that's a Rogue card.

Lynn is designed to be weak until she gets inspired by someone else, then she becomes unstoppable. Supposed to reflect her character biography.

>Bella is probably the most uninspired card of them all because I had no idea how to translate "I'm a hero!" into card mechanics*. Guess I should've given her Charge instead!

Considering the recent Patron nerf, I think Charge would be an exceptionally bad idea.

Maybe make her more of a Dr. Cupcake: a 1/4 that adds five 'Enchanted Cupcakes' to your hand. The Cupcakes are all 1/1's that have a random heal for their Deathrattle.

As for how she'd fit in the meta, she's be crazy strong in Bloodlust decks, and a Hobgoblin enabler.

I'm totes magotes not biased in favour of Hobgoblin decks, I swear :3
