/MLPOL/ Watch Party Part 4: We Endure
/MLPOL/ Watch Party Part 4: We Endure
The horrors persist, but so do we.
Welcome, newfags and oldfags. This is a thread about a weekly get-together some of us like to do on Fridays.
Account registration is not required.
Starting at around 7:00pm EST (8:00pm Central Time), and continuing until the end of the night.
Cytube is the current site hosting the Watch Parties, and the normal room is https://cytu.be/r/FlappyPterodactyl . This may be subject to change, so double check the announcement post in the thread.
These nights consist of going to a website with a video player and a chatroom and having a good time. The format we're using lately starts with the first hour being a series of pony animations and music. This is followed with a couple episodes of a show, then we switch over to a livestream portion for a brief intermission, followed by a series of classic shorts, followed by a movie, followed by two episodes of another show, followed by MLP episodes, then the room is usually pretty open to whatever.
The mood of the nights is “Good Vibes”, and we tend to like more classic content compared to a lot of what's on offer these days.
Feel free to swing by at some point after people filter in.

L:ike you've served the mlpol audience? Trying the same thing but expecting different results? Yeah, posture all you want, you're an abivalent shitposter! But how is the site doing? How are incentivization methods such as communal events including and not limited to movie night doing? Youve been at it for quite some time.

What are you even angry about?
I have to be honest. You wanted to come back here, mend bridges and all that? The way you're behaving is a big part of why everything blew up for you before and you wound up getting banned. Getting pointlessly combative about everything, taking minor quibbles and exaggerating them into huge fights; it's exhausting to deal with.
You're the only one who has a problem with the movie night schedule. Moreover, if you're going to be this obnoxious about it, nobody is going to be inclined to listen to your complaints or take you seriously. I can't even tell what you're upset about half the time, you just inarticulately rage about things that don't seem to bother anyone else. Just chillax, my dude.

.mending bridges
We'll start there. I've gone out of my way to acknowledgr my faults and misgivings. Well golly gee, I must be the only one.
The way I'm behaving is exactly what happened last time, when a bunch of inneffectual assholes decided to ignore the one person who was trying to take what is and try to make something better. I know, you have gotten quite comfortable "as things are", so obviously you have no interest in having to do more.

It's real simple. Imagine that you wanted people to come back. Not just the regulars, but everyone.

Alright, just for the sake of argument, I'll bite. What exactly are you saying? That we've lost people? Even though we've basically had the same core group of regulars for the last 5 years? And all of these phantom viewers would come back to the stream if we started only showing programs that you, personally, approve of? Which as far as I can tell would be an extremely short list?

At face value, the argument is that you might have more viewers if you didn't start each stream with a boring-ass drama that ostensibly you had to see the first episode of or you're lost for the next 8 weeks.
I would say the greater point is a macrocosm of that microcosm, but me guess, not making sense?
If you were a new user, or even a lurking old user, what would incentivize you to post?
And now, what can be done about it?

>boring-ass drama
You are literally the only person here saying that it's boring. Everyone else who was watching said they enjoyed it. It's a critically-acclaimed classic series based on two critically-acclaimed classic novels. I'm sorry you don't have the attention span to appreciate it and apparently can't deal with Patrick Stewart having hair for some reason, but unfortunately there's no accounting for taste. As far as it being an appropriate choice for the stream, if you consider that this board is half-/pol/, and there's usually an overlap between /pol/ and /his/, as well as /lit/ to some extent, I would assume that a drama about the seedy underbelly of Imperial Rome ought to be a popular choice. I made a judgement call, and it seems to have paid off, with you being the only outlier.
>ostensibly you had to see the first episode of or you're lost for the next 8 weeks.
This is actually a fair point. Showing anything with an ongoing story would run that risk. However, the same can be said about the anime block or the pony block, both of which are also popular. Also, I Claudius is the first thing I've shown in that time block that has an ongoing story between episodes. Before that, I ran Wodehouse Playhouse, which are all self-contained stories, and before that was the Honeymooners, which is also one story per episode. Before that I was running Little Rascals shorts iirc. The thing I'll be running starting next week is also the kind of show you can jump into at any point without having seen the previous episodes. So again, I don't think the issue here is so much that the format turns people off, so much as that you, personally, don't like my choices. You're entitled to your opinion, but you're heavily outvoted, and I'm the one running the stream. If you don't like what I pick, feel free to start your own stream, with blackjack, hookers, etc.
>I would say the greater point is a macrocosm of that microcosm, but me guess, not making sense?
Read this sentence out loud to yourself and see if you can answer that one on your own.
>If you were a new user, or even a lurking old user, what would incentivize you to post?
What would incentivize me to post would be quality discussion and quality content related to subjects I'm interested in. We could probably debate about what, specifically, that might entail for the average person, but I think in any case "come to the movie stream to hear Ninjas bitch and moan about every single thing that gets shown is not going to be a huge draw for anyone.
>And now, what can be done about it?
What can be done is that you can either stop bitching or continue bitching. I'd prefer that you stop, but I have no power to compel you.

In this case, aside from cheeky one liners, my insults and attacks have been against the series it's self while on the other hand, I've been insulted and attacked for attacking the series.
>duhhhhh nobody said nothin'
>duhhhhh you don't like patrick stewart
Maybe your eyes aren't trained to see horseshit when you see it, but I see a guy like Patrick Stewart pretending to be a roman solder that ISN'T bald and immediately go "Nah, horsehit." If you CAN'T, don't go anywhere near California
Macrocosm versus microcosm refers to the idea that all of reality is reflections of its self at different levels. The reference was to indicate the defensiveness that resulted from the idea that the stream was in any way not as good as you had built up in your mind.
This against the macrocosm of receptivity to any deviation from the general strategy the site has maintained for many years now. See how much receptivity there was to making a porn board for a day just to see if people will respond? As though pressing the delete button a day later was such an egregious ask. As though getting a straight answer from you is such an egregious ask. The same attitude that pervades the willingness to attack me rather than continue an otherwise enjoyable argument about the quality of a TV series is the same attitude that pervades the site which has become observably hostile to the notion of lifting a finger for non-site users in any way.
They are both reflections of an attitude that lacks self reflection and is at the very least inconsiderate of any potential new/oldfags.
Maybe you didn't notice, but oldfags are coming out of the woodwork, try to have a shred of propriety; you may have given up on the site growing any life to it but I haven't.
And yes, I WOULD be encouraged if I came to a site and saw users with the testicular fortitude to challenge Staff and all comers over a subjective experience, if anything I would be discouraged by the logical fallacies and loose rhetoric of you and 'yours'.
are you still following or did I lose you again?

I took some time to calm down before replying, because this is an extremely silly argument and I don't want it to escalate any further. I'm going to explain this to you in very plain and simple terms, and then this conversation is finished.
1. I have no particular obligation to stream free entertainment for everyone once a week.
2. I run this stream for fun and because people appreciate it. If it stops being fun, or if people stop appreciating it, I'm not going to do it anymore.
3. While I will generally make an effort to accommodate people's preferences, I am not obligated to accommodate anyone. If someone is being obnoxiously combative, particularly when they are making complaints that no one else is making, I'm not going to listen to them.
4. This stream is not intended to be a newfag magnet or advertising for mlpol.net. This is a fun place for anons to hang out and watch stuff on Fridays. If new people want to drop in, they're welcome to. If they don't want to stick around, they don't have to.
5. I don't know if the issue is that you need meds, therapy or what, but the behavior you've exhibited in this thread is exactly why nobody likes interacting with you, and it needs to stop. It's why you're not on staff anymore, and it's why you received multiple bans. If you can't rein yourself in, then you won't be welcome in my stream anymore.

411 is normally and information hotline number, so on this day, April 11th (4-11), I've decided to grab one video by Joxy talking about how G1 was pretty Dark, as well as a 12 minute video on The History of Gargoyles by Secret Galaxy. We've also got a short on making easy flavoured carbonaded soda using pine needles. You can do the same thing with fruit peels, sugar, and water. It takes a week to ferment, and it uses the natural yeast that shows up from the air. Just wash them in dish soap and water, and rinse thoroughly.
After this, we have our traditional motley collection of Pony Music and short animations to fill out the rest of the hour.
I'm trying a thing where I talk about this Watch Party on the fediverse, so we'll see how that develops over the next couple weeks.

Oh, wow. The 4chan hack definitely shook things up.
While we're here, if any curious newcomers, or regulars, want to ask any questions about the Watch Parties, feel free to ask.
Also, feel free to make requests for this week. I want to put something together that's a little special, but don't quite know what will suit the occasion.

That can work. The room's population usually isn't active enough to have a potluck most nights, so I almost always go with pre-made playlists.
>>383678
The nights go from about 7pm Eastern time and then for 5-6 hours. That said, it's common enough for people to keep the room going and watch a bunch of other stuff until after the sun comes up. Time zones are weird.
I don't enforce an end time. Once the pre-planned content ends, I'll either put on some agreed-upon other episodes of a show or will open the list for a Potluck where people can suggest their own videos. I normally start to crash towards the end of the night, so I won't be able to be as attentive. I'll have to leave it to one of the mods. Or, if there's a huge upswing in population, I'll try nominating one of the regulars as another mod. Someone who can stay up super late.
This week the movie section of the night will be out, so I'll be figuring something else to do. We definitely won't have the regular shorts and episode leading in to the movie, followed by ponies, but I'll be poking around with setting a movie or some other series' up.
If you have some movies from Internet Archive or other streaming site like YT or Rumble to plug in to the CyTube room, then feel free to suggest them.

Looks fun
I have the idea of shilling this around the bunker sites so there can be an crosssite exchange between this watch party and the rewatch stream
On friday the nor/mlp/eople can join your stream and on saturday you can join ours
Would you be ok with that?

raising awareness of mlpol is just a good idea in general; of the varios altchans I've been scouring, this place has the most potential.

I have a growing interest to do a cytube of Epic the Musical, but don't think that should be the dedicated feature of a movie stream and will probably opt for a Saturday or Sunday

I'd appreciate it.
I might have to start putting the start time of the stream on in UTC or some other universal time code, so people don't have to do mental math if they're in a different time zone.

Happy Good Friday, everyone! Both to the regulars and to the newfrens.
This is your reminder that in just a little more than six (6) hours, we'll have one of our wonderful weekly traditions. A Watch Party! It's not a livestream, it's an hour of pony fan content, some episodes of tv shows, a movie, and then pony episodes.
The idea is to get a pre-made block of programming so we can all hang out in the chatroom for a few hours. No registration is necessary, but you do still have to pick a name.
You're also encouraged to pick and post images from PonerPics in the chat for some more lively emotes.
I think you'll enjoy the movie picked out for this week.

Kind of shitty timing considering the sudden influx of new people, but I’m at Babscon this week and won’t be able to stream anything tonight. If someone else can fill in for my portion this week I would appreciate it, the regular program will resume next week.
How late do these streams usually stay active? I'd love to pop in but I don't get off work until like 3 hours after the stream starts.

The streams usually go for about four to six hours. If people are still feeling up to it, we go for longer.
The movie this week will start about two hours and twenty minutes after we start the Watch Party.
The second portion of the night usually starts off with an intermission, several shorts, and then an old TV show, and then the movie. I haven't timed that, but our normal movie portion guy is out this week.

I got some sources for the movie portion of the night. I had some help finding a show and a movie on Archive.org.
We got you covered, Elway. Have an /mlpol/ gathering for us!

for shits and giggles I set up an IRC channel on irc.canternet.org #mlpol
People who haven't used IRC before or don't remember anything about it, IRC is one of the oldest group chat protocols in existence that has IRC clients for every device and platform imaginable.
Hexchat is probably the best "normal" all-around desktop client. - https://hexchat.github.io/
I've included a couple screenshots to help out, it is very easy though.
After hexchat is installed, just put in whatever nickname you want, if the nickname is already chosen then it falls back to the second or third. There is also a list of popular networks, Canternet is already in the list.
You can just select that and join the network, then /join #mlpol after connected to the server, or you can edit the network (where the mouse curser is in the first screen shot) and add the channel to automatically connect to that channel when joining the network.
There are quite a few additional options and things that can be done, but all that is optional. registering an account and username is totally optional.

Never been to the /mlpol/ streams, how do you decide on whats loaded. Is it like a mysterybox stream where you never know what you're going to get? Does the community have a say in what to watch?

The idea is that it's a pre-made program of content. The first couple of nights ended with me spending more time managing things than actually being in the stream night.
After the pre-made stuff is over, I'm fine with putting other stuff in. There are some people who want to make sure they show up specifically in time for the movie, and adding more content before the movie messes with the time.
The first hour-ish is where we have the most content and the most variety. Then it's longer form content, then a movie. On normal nights, after the first hour and episode, there's usually an intermission where we start off with old animations, an old show, then a movie and a few other things. Check out >>382808 for an example.
Shorter videos and songs I'm fine with adding, but stuff that's 10+ minutes can throw off the schedule.
We'll have space after the pony episodes after the movie, if you can stay up that long. That'll be for the longer videos.
The main issue is when people are just sitting in and not actively adding enough content, I have to do that myself. That takes away my ability to enjoy the stream myself.

Got it, I may not make it around the first hour or two but I'll check it out at some point. I didn't really get involved in the emotespam of /mlp/ streams and preferred watching an occasional movie or listened to tunes with mlp's /bootleg watch2together. I've done some of my own cytube stream setups before so I know it can be a hassle to get everything ready.

Welcome, Regulars and Newfrens!
This sure is an interesting day. We had a bit of a sit-in pre-stream watching random stuff before starting up the stream night, which is a new thing. We're also doing something a little different for the second part of the stream to keep the whole event on CyTube.
We've got our regular mix of music, some short video bumpers, and a couple of videos showcasing /mlpol/'s founding. I've also grabbed a new video from Homestarrunner.com talking about going back to a website.
The big highlight of the week is “Pony Kombat: Fluttershy vs. Derpy” by Space Oddpony that was released just last week.
After this, we have our weekly episode of Farscape, then we'll move on to the second portion of the night, which I'll put in a later post.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Farscape
Season 1 Episode 12 - Rhapsody in Blue
The crew finds a colony of Delvians. Z'haan goes down to be with her own people for a while, but one of them wants something from Z'haan and will do almost anything to take it from her
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Pony Theme of the week is /mlpol/ related characters.
See you in the room! We'll be going for around four to six hours, and then we might go further if people are still up.

Once again we meet, my fine fellows.
Another week is past, and another Watch Party beckons. With the passing of last week's BabsCon, we have a full Watch Party with our regular programming this week. This will affect only the portion of the night after Farscape, wherein we will move to a different website. There's something about how it does the video and audio streaming that makes it hard to pipe into the CyTube room, so that's our current option. I think you'll like the extra variety in programming that it allows us to bring to these events.
In this night we have our regular mix of pony fan music with some bumpers (Nigel and Marmalade bumpers again this week), and we've got some music videos and comic dubs.
Our Farscape episode this week will see us split the party again. What could possibly go wrong?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Farscape
Season 1 Episode 14 - Jerimiah Crichton
John runs away from Moya in a fit and becomes stranded, and Rygel learns that His Holiness is close to godliness
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To go with the Space theme of Farscape, I think tonight's Pony Theme of the Week will be Constellations.
With that, the prep for the week is pretty much ready. See you in the room!
