Did you all see that neat new pony stuff that came out recently?

I can see why people are so enamored with Sonata Dusk and Sunset now.

I really hope it is good. I've been a bit disappointed with season 4 so far.

Though of course, we all know what this means... that's right, I get to put in another thing on my bingo card.

Clearly the most important part of this revelation.

If you haven't, this is a good time to grab yourself a bingo card:

As some folks over on Ponychan were making these, I thought I would make one as well. These are my predictions. We'll see how well I do come the end of the season.

Feel free to point and laugh.

I excluded some things which I already know are going to happen, such as the Daring Do episode and the Luna/Celestia flashback episode, which appear to already be confirmed.

We're all excited to find out what Generation 5 will bring, so let's make a game of it. Get yourself a random bingo card here:

There's just one week left in the Generation 5 Bingo Writing Contest, so get your stories published and into the contest folder pronto!

We're now half-way through the Generation 5 Bingo Writing Contest.

I know 3 months feels like a long time, but it disappears before you know it.

There are still prompts available if you want to join in.

Remember my Season 7 bingo card generator? The one that everyone liked, but so few people actually used?

Now the season's started, don't forget to grab your Season 9 Bingo cards here:

If you have a late entry, you can drop it into this folder:

Late Entries (Season 9 Bingo Writing Contest)

It won't be eligible to win, but you may get an honourable mention.

Finally got round to updating my Season 9 bingo card. I didn't win... unless anybody spotted a police pony in season 9 anywhere?

That's it! The Generation 5 Bingo Writing Contest is over.

Late entries

But if you haven't finished yet, don't give up. There's still space for late entries - you can put them in this folder. They won't be considered for judging, but they may still get some love.

Here's my bingo card for G5. As you can see I haven't won, yet - but the (completely arbitrary and self-imposed) rules let the card run to the end of season 1, so there's hope yet. I'm certain the special next year will have time travel and windigos!

More realistically, there's a good chance of seeing gryphons during season 1, and at least a solid mention of Manehatten. So I've still got a chance.

If you're one of the writers signed up to the Season 9 Bingo Writing Contest, you now have just 24 hours to get your stories into the folder.

The Season 9 Bingo Writing Contest shut its doors when the first episode aired, but authors have an extra week to publish further chapters, fix any typos etc, and just generally finish their stories.

You have less than 24 hours left: 11:30 EDT.

If you're writing a story for the Generation 5 Bingo Writing Contest, you now have just three weeks to finish your story and put it in the contest folder. The deadline is Sunday 9th January.

I've now handed out 100 different writing prompts for the Generation 5 Bingo Writing Contest , out of the 300 limit.

There are still prompts available though, so if you're interested in getting a random writing prompt for a G5 story, sign up now.

I promise they don't all include Sweets. Just... a lot of them. Because random.
