Nightly Megathread #144

I passes out a couple of weeks ago and had a dream about showing Derpy how to summon her awakened persona... Even though this header doesn't accurately show the results of that event, I still find this to be pretty ****in' awesome...

It's time to burn my dread...

Mashup Post For This Brony's Soul

I'm an Emcee for all of the world to see
yea ya got my word on it, I'll put the Herd on it

This mashup post is brought to you by s2jdfgs and TheDanielsaur... s2jdfgs did all of the odd-numbered mashups while TheDanielsaur did all of the even-numbered mashups... (And now you know...)

1. s2jdfgs	Avicii ft. Nicky Romero vs. MLP: FiM - I Could Be a True Friend
	House-ify a "True Friend"...
2. TheDanielsaur	Gravity Falls/MLP Themesong Mashup
	That type of mashup that's as good as its sounds...
3. s2jdfgs	The Fray vs. MLP: FiM - I've Got to Save a Life

Various stats and diagrams

Some statistics about the Season 3 finale in regard of viewers and a summarization of the comic's issue #1 sales have been made.
Summarizing the summarizations:

---

With the Season 3 finale, the Hub has outdone all the other major cartoon channels for the younger croud, like Cartoon Network, Nicktoons, Disney XD and some more.

Besides, MLP: FiM earned huge percentages in delivery gains among pretty much every age category up to 54. And it seems to be the "most co-viewed network in Kids 2–11 watching with Adults 18–49".

*cough* Yeah. Kids.

---

The comic's first issue sold rather well in December 2012... Considering only the third printing was counted due to the initial delays. It ranked 12th for IDW's comic releases and 189th in general Top 300 comic sales with 8,605 sold reprints and a total of 95,384 sold copies for issue #1.

Music

I don't like to pick header images. Or titles. But I hope you like to pick music.
If I may recommend some, I'd say give Jastrian's work a try. Quite good vocal collaboration.
And if you feel more like screaming and headbanging to almost incomprehensible vocals, listen to Metalcore in #3. But, of course, everything else in here is just fine as well.

Blaze, Tuxe & Ozzwald	The Changeling (Mush Remix)	80's Pop Synth
Blu3Mixed	Find A Way (Blu3Mixed Remix)	Progressive House
GatoPaint Feat. MetalCorePony	Darkness Griffon (Gilda's Song)	Metalcore
Jastrian Feat. Faux Synder	Dark Prelude	Vocal
Metapony	Alicorn	House
Resonantwaves	The Temple of Shadows	Ambient
The Ocular Invisible & NegaNote	Stay Strong	Happy Hardcore
