Only problem I herd was that she slipped into Britspeak, when Rarity's accent is more upper-crust, semi-brit Easter Seaboard Poser-Posh. There's a name for it, but durned if I can remember it.

#Rarity: It was more in the phrase than the accent. When she started on with "I say, Old Horse!" (less !, but the HAM in me objects to anything less), that's a distinctly British turn of phrase- a Manehattener (ahem) would probably say something more like: "I am afraid..." in place of that.
Also, "Thanks Awfully" is again, a more British turn of phrase. "Thank you ever so much" is more American feaux upper-class.

That also bugged me. More the "I say, Old Horse" than anything else.

Just in case anyone isn't aware, the script for that animation is copied from an email sent by Tabitha herself, in reply to a request that she voice a licious meme for Rarity.
The voice actress isn't her, the words are.
She will be voicing something or other, just not a stock "licious" meme, which is good, since that's getting a bit old now anyway.

Well, speaking as a south coast Englishman (the posh part of England according to northerners ), I think whoever it was who did the voice for R did a pretty good job. I did notice a slight change when she said the "Old Horse" line but still, a good attempt.

I'll be there, I think DP will as well. As for what to look for... we'll get back to you on that. Anyone want to make a banner with "DAKKA" on?

Ok ... yes, yet again i have the same problem ... lost enthusiasm to continue with the project.
This time, i have(again) decided to try making a mini-movie clip to put on youtube ... but i have problems thinking of ideas that would be fun to make a movie-clip from.
So, i ask you here: what would you like to see, or what do you think would be a good idea?
I can't promise to make it, but any suggestions are appreciated.
Was once trying to make a 2D action-strategy scroller based on a mix of WH40K & MLP FiM .... but is no longer.

Just some cuts of in game actiony goodness would be good.
