In the vast sea of Brony content, some people want to know which are the most popular ones. In comes Brony Awards, a community-voted prize for the best of the best.
It's currently (until November 15th) in its nomination phase - the 10 top voted entries go on to the final vote.
Vote for your favourite artist, musician and fanfic author, and there's even a misc. category that includes plushies, custom figurines, websites and (*ahem*) games.
So place your vote and spread the word, so that this can be the most representative award it can be!

I'll keep you updated on proceedings.
Want to try your hoof at making your own songs? Look no further!

would voting for MLK count as Self-Nomination.
I know it wouldn't count for me - I joined quite late; but would it for you or Renard?
Top of the day to you!

Eeyup. There's no way to track IPs to individual Bronies, though, so it's left up for conscience.
As for you, you already contributed a few songs for our next release, as well as Operation Scrutiny. You'll have your name in our staff list, once Renard updates our main homepage. You are part of the team now. You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Why thanks, I'd always felt that I hadn't really done much, because tbh I haven't!

Yeah, it always starts out that way...
Then before ya know it, you are knee deep in chocolate rain while juggling 10 cupcakes and singing the latest Pinkie Pie song in front of a crowd of dozens.
But hey... at least it will be fun.

Anyhow, things started out slow for me as well when I joined up.  Nowadays, I tend to work in bursts.  New material becomes available, and blammo!  New audio.  Then I go back to my vectoring and Ponytones practice.

Translation: Chaos comes for everypony... eventually.  But don't stress out over it. 
(Things here start out easy, but after a while, you will get hit with a crazy situation.  It just happens.  Just roll with it and pony on.)

The Biggest Problem is that I probably won't be able to make any Conventions for at least a year or two because Parents :'(
Well, Actually I might - but I have yet to ask them anything like that. They know I'm a brony - but I think they'd draw the line on me going to a Con!
Especially with school fees etc. (I go to private boarding school)
Time for me to start saving money methinks
Top of the day to you!

You're in the UK, right? It's going to be a bit complicated to go to a con next year anyway. There will be no BUCK 2015, for a start. Galacon wasn't supposed to happen either (since the Forum am Schlosspark is closing next summer for renovation) but it seems they found a way. And while the Bronydays team will try to have something going, the plans are still very uncertain (it's extremely complicated to find a decent venue in Paris).

UKPonyCon etc. ?
That was a few weeks ago, and should be happening next year too
Top of the day to you!
