MerlosTheMad


Greetings, I am Merlos the Mad. I am a dabbler of both words and wizardry in my free time. I also invite you all to partake in my musings. Take care though, as they are the product of a madman.

    *Cruises through*

    I was going through an old hard drive and found this sound file I never uploaded. If anybody likes listening to nerds from ten years ago talk about fanfiction with little ponies in it here's one I recorded with Hoopy Mcgee and Mrpockets at our heights of fanfiction. (Warning there is a little vulgarity. I was just out of the army when I recorded this I think. lol)

    Hello everyone, just an update.

    Well, suffice it to say, my renewed effort to start updating to schedule once again didn't pan out. It was maybe a bit naive of me to try and hold myself to that, especially considering how bad my track record had been the last couple of years. Still, I felt I had to try.

    Moving Forward, cause I'm back!

    I probably don't deserve to use a song this awesome, but...

    Heeeello everypony. I hope you've been enjoying the updates so far. Or, at least, you know, tolerating them.

    Whoooa. Two blogs in one year? Who am I and what did I do with the real Merlos!

    It's true, I am in fact... a changeling! The real Merlos is currently locked in the basement of this stinky wizard tower, and I am readying Queen Chrysalis' eeeevil plan to take over all the fimfiction writers and then the whole world! Bwahahaha!

    Except not.

100,000 page views. I was not prepared. · 12:04am Apr 12th, 2014

Well. That happened. Auuuugh it totally didn't even sneak up on me, either. I wish I had something to post for it, but I don't. Normally I would post apology pictures of ponies doing cute things, but I think I'll just say thanks for reading, fellas. This is the only, and probably will remain my only creative outlet. I've never really done anything with my free time like this before fimfiction, and I can't really see myself doing any others 'things' after this. I'm just not naturally that kind of person, I think. I prefer to mettle from the sidelines.

You said it, Rarity. Now... what else can I do...

Sweetie Bot coming tomorrow to a theater near you!

I wish, right? No, unfortunately all I'm able to give is a shoddy story on the interwebs through a fanfiction website. But at least there will be an update tomorrow. Ah well, I hope that's enough, guys. :twilightblush: I'm sorry my updates have been so... bad, lately. It really just boils down to me not doing enough and becoming horribly addicted to youtube. : P Hopefully I'll get myself turned around at some point so you don't all have to keep waiting like this. I'm terrible at motivating myself as it turns out.

Some side news I guess, just to fill the blog. Lately I've been listening to some 'space metal' I guess it's called. Here's a link to the wiki. Arjen Anthony Lucassen's Star One It's good, this album being based off of various sci-fi films like Dune and Space Odyssey. The video below is Master of Darkness, and is based around Darth Vader and Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back.

Storiiies! I also have a few story recommendations for you guys, in case somehow you aren't already drowning in stories or something to read. :twilightblush:
Recommendation: Special Relativity
The story could use more attention than what it got, I think. Well, a lot of stories do, but there are only so many of us bronies, I guess.

:twilightsmile: I've been following your stuff for a while now, but A Twilight Landing is one of the earlier stories that got me hooked on Fimfiction. All of it's been great so far! Thanks for popping in to say hi, too! :pinkiehappy:

I used to do it all the time. I've gotten lazy in my old age and have allowed my hubris to grow too much. :rainbowwild:

Hey, congrats on the 100 K. :yay:

2001645 No worries. :heart: *gives a cookie* :derpyderp1:

Congratumalations!

Cool beans, Mr. Wizard. :derpytongue2: ALL HAIL!

I'm terrible at motivating myself as it turns out.

I know that feel. I was stuck in that for awhile, among other things. Trying to get back on the pony though. :scootangel: ... :trollestia:

This "Space Metal" sounds a lot like 80's big hair band to me, the vocals at least. I like that, so thanks for sharing. :raritystarry:

My body is not ready.

That music's some good shit yo!

Oh hey I think I should probably congratulate you for your achievement.

Good to see you on. Congrats on all the views.
Also, thanks for the story recommendation. Loved it!
