Alternative Anniversary Planning/Discussion
Last year there was an Anon talking about putting on a better anniversary without EQG and with more feedback from the board. Some other suggested items were:
* Tight schedule: Have a well-defined timing for every episode/movie/etc, and don't deviate from it by more than about 15 minutes in each direction. There were a lot of cases of things being pushed forward by many hours this year and last, and it just wasn't great for anyone with a sleep schedule. No playing shit out of order, either.
* Two chat channels: one that's like the normal anni chat, plus one for discussion with heavier throttling. I realize this means changes to CyTube, or using an alternative platform, and I'm looking into that.
* No edited episodes in place of normal episodes: No alternative intros, no replacing episodes with anatomically correct versions (though those might be played separately)
* No fucking smoke detector beeps: Do I need to explain? Also, nothing else that messes with the UI and shit, like the MLG crap.
* No skip-locking videos that nobody wants to watch, other than episodes/movies/etc (because the point is to watch all of them.)
* No bias against certain episodes/seasons: This is more of a vague thing than a concrete one, it just feels like a lot of the jannies of the main anni are biased against later seasons of the show, and like to shit on it in an official capacity. None of that here.

OP had also previously assured:
>Next thread will probably be a lot closer to the actual 2025 alt anni, so once this one dies and you don't hear for awhile, rest assured I'm working on it.

Is this still the case? Is OP still alive? If so, how are things looking?

Are you referring to /mare/con? This was meant to be a board replacement of the anniversary stream.

If you mean to the backed then no. It cloud be accomplished with just the frontend code. Just connect to the second socket with channel JS.

Sorry anon, but all those things seem like trivial things to me that I don't think justify making another anni or that involve serious addressing by the mods.
I understand things like watching original content without edits and trying to keep an organized schedule, but so what?
The scheduling thing is easier said than done, especially when what for you is a bad schedule because you have to sleep means "just in time" for the anon on the other side of the world.
That chaos, but at the same time the security that no matter what time of the week you log in, there will always be an mlp episode, is quite comfy, and I think it's what the anni seeks and achieves.

I understand that you prefer a more relaxed and focused watchalong style, but that's not what the anni is, and it never sought to be.
And I say this as someone who was never into the anni that much, I even forgot about it lol

That's all it needs. I'd watch that. Leave the other autism alone.

Guys can you please not spam the chat. My mom bought me this new laptop and it gets really hot when the chat is being spamed. Now my leg is starting to hurt because it is getting so hot. Please, if you don't want me to get burned, then dont spam the chat

Wait do you- do you really think the point of the anni is to just watch the episodes in a row full steam?

I would be fine with barbies playing, but last year they always took up prime time which fucking sucks because it made me miss the real shit.

Bruh, there is no way they are going to stream Tamers now that it would hog up HOURS of content

The anni is supposed to be an /mlp/ event FROM THIS BOARD. The actual anni is offboard faggots who, and i quote, haven't visited the board in years. watching eqg is distinctly and brutally offboarder behavior thats why it needs to go.
