Anthology 8 confirmed.
You might have seen the news that Anthology 8 is finally coming. What the twitter feeds didn't tell you is that this new installment will focus on the last Bronycon because that was the jumping off point psychologically for the staff, at least in the opinions given at the panel on Saturday night.This is because they want to pick up where they left off. More to follow in the write up. But expect lots of retrospective based running joke threads this time.
Stephen Wintre spoke to me briefly, and discussed the footage gap, as he calls it, from the side panels at BABS. I have quite a bit of footage that I plan to get to him soon so watch this space.
We spoke to Twitch Trot, a twitch streaming coalition of pony enthusiasts. They got over 300 members inside of two years, which is impressive. More to follow.
Elley Ray has considered going to the third BronUKon which will be based in Ukraine again. According to the chair of Camp Equestria Elley was unaware of it and immediately wanted to go when they mentioned it,and the event has between 80 to 100 people so I will be keen to see how this inflates things.
There is also a new con to start in Syracuse NY next year, Hearth's Warming Club, but rumours are this will have 100 spots max. Small cons are one thing but you never see a limit like this usually, at least in my experience. More to follow but I have to leave for now.
