As my last little bit of input on the whole Mane6 debacle; they really aren't punishing anyone really. The content that was in the leaked version is just stuff that they would have posted on their site for a few weeks, and now that it's all public, there's no real reason to publish it. Most of the info in recent BSU's was just content that you could see in the test build, just with snazzy text. My guess is that they tried to get people worked up to try to get a confession out of the testers, which I doubt will happen.
They'll probably be back in a month or so with new content, and that's great. I agree with Solar, this is good hype for the game. Honestly, I don't know why they didn't just release a beta of the game and say "We aren't taking any feedback from anyone other than our official testers". That creates hype for the game, and spares them the whole "worrying about leaks" thing. Edit: Wow. It has just been debacle after debacle the past couple days. I need two things; a break from tumblr, and Season 3 to come out.

The only group that got punished was the QA testing group, they all got the blame for this and the devs will be looking for new testers unless someone admits to the leak. And yeah, S3 can't come out any sooner, I need new pone.

I just went to both Walmart locations here in Salem. Ugh, no go. I'll give them a call later.
I laughed at their response.

God, they're taking it way to far than it needs to be.
And I found out about the Map of Eq...holy apples. So apparently there's a poster at Walmart? CRAP. Confound you Ponies! Driving me to the point where I'm walking 2 miles to my Walmart! Oh yes, and I submitted my lame drawing for day two. Nothing special. (Look back at the last page for the original draft...like it matters right now. I don't wanna spoil much revisions-wise.) Still though, Do they really need to make a extremely big deal about this? I'd be fine if they made a deal, then kinda drop it days later, but I know they're gonna be hashing at this for some time.

And a whole lot more. MY GOD, HOW NEARLY RIGHT WAS I. Ironic enough, my Walmart started selling the blindbags just this past week. CURSE YOU IMPORTED BULL[Squee]!

Hmm...Should I edit my sketch and then reupload my submission......or run to my Walmart like a crazed idiot before Dusk?
...And what's funny is that my niece's birthday is coming up... Best excuse to buy Pony Swag...LIKE I NEED ONE! And a hilarious fact. In the sketch, amazing Sane didn't notice it, but the old faded words I had Cloud say would actually have prevented me from submitting it. It had...words.

Okay, so basically with the Walmart posters: They are most likely not going to be at smaller retailers, and most mid-west-west coast, won't have them yet, just talk to the manager, and see if they have them, buy something, and they should be nice enough to give you all four.
(I totally didn't go to every Walmart within 50 miles to get this information only to find that they won't have them for a week and then I got a raincheck. That totally didn't happen.)

I'm in the Chicago/ Illinois region. Do you think they'd have the blind bags and posters yet? OmegazeroGA Wrote:Too far. It was just profanity. Is that cranberry juice there?

Go see the official abridged shot now! (Nah, don't. I'm just extremely bored. Go ahead if you want to though.) .../endcommericalmode. XD So I ran to Walmart today and found out, yes, they do have the blindbags...but they aren't shelving them..or something...i don't know. Artist Training Grounds Day 3 Has Begun! Draw a Pony w/a Prop or Weapon! (Drafting) Equestria's Chosen Keyblader (Props to whoever knows what game I'm referencing.) Uploading Soon. I was suprised how quickly I got this finished. (45mins) |
