His voice was extremely grating during the intro, but I thought it actually worked really well in concert with the actual shorts.
There is a tumblr about an insane thread about ponies.

[up][up][up]Well then, i'll leave it at that. But for what it's worth, I don't think any other voice would fit him unless they do an impersonation of Timmy Turner and use that voice.

Yeah, I found his voice really annoying in the intro, but bearable elsewhere. Maybe the VA got better.

Take it from me, a voice means a lot to the enjoyment of a show.

FYI, ShadyVox, Button's VA, is also the VA for Jaden Yuki (among others) in Yu Gi Oh GX The Abridged Series and the Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series Bonds Beyond Time abridged movie. Maybe it's just because I'm already familiar with his work and like his voice a lot, but I didn't mind Button's at all.
Oooh, a dA link sig, how original.

the short segments DO have a purpose of not connecting: it's a pilot and the title does read "Button's adventures".

They did call it a pilot "episode". That implies something more coherent than Stick Figures on Crack.

Isn't that series a poster child for Bored On Board? Making an Abridged Series seems kinda redundant.

@needing caffeine/energy drinks to wake up: I've luckily never had that problem. I like to drink sodas/pop/fizzy drinks (insert your regional term here) sometimes but usually the non-caffeinated kind. I don't even like coffee, nor do I want to try to like it. Then again, I've almost never had problems waking up in the morning for all my life, I'm more of a morning person than most people, probably. That and I usually take my dogs out to go potty first thing in the morning anyway, so the need to care of them also helps me wake up (and hearing Luna clatter her little paws on the kennel door when she knows I'm awake helps and then I let her out to lick my face to REALLY wake me up).

Come to think of it, I bet Fluttershy is similarly a morning pony because she would have to get up to take care of all of her animals. And Angel Bunny wouldn't let her sleep in if he wanted something, given his demanding personality.

Yeah, very fast reader. For reference, I finished Project Horizons in 5 days.

Wow. How the heck do you read that fast? Or maybe I'm just slow.

The only sort of caffeine I get is from soda. I don't like coffee, I'm too lazy to boil water for tea, and energy drinks are terrible, I don't know how people can stand them. I don't use caffeine to wake up though, by the time I manage to lurch my way out of bed I'm already pretty awake.

What's sad is, I've always wanted to work with gamesworkshop. Not in one of the shops, though that would be nice. I mean at the actual headquarters. Designing the game themselves. But the sad part is, despite playing the games for over a a decade and a half, through multiple editions, you would probably still need a degree to do that. So, I'm not qualified to do my own passion.

Have you tried designing any games yourself? How do you know it's your passion?

Man I wish I had the motivation to actually learn how to code so I could try making some games. Not even professionally, it just seems like it would be fun to make some small games.

I suddenly feel a lot better. See building and designing my own take on 40k stuff has been my bread and butter with it for years. It's...ok it's a small thing but, on a 40k years I frequented years ago, I won the annual award for best house rules two years in a row. And I've made a good attempt at re-writing my favorite codex (army rule book) for the current edition.

Oh wow. Sounds like you actually have a lot of experience then.

Bad bad bronies...

It was pretty much inevitable. The intended audience (nonbronies) weren't likely to watch it much even for free.

@JT: I guess Fluttershy decided to ask Twi to watch her new dance she learned from Pinkie?

Never been a fan of energy drinks. I occasionally use Mountain Dew to wake myself up in college, but other than that I never really needed the caffeine.

I avoid them too since I'm worried that they'll just screw my sleep schedule up even more or get me addicted to caffeine.

I thought they were funny

Same here. The only one that feel flat was the juice box thing.

Nah, being a kid isn't an excuse for giving him a grating voice. If you want people to enjoy something, giving the title character a voice people won't like is kind of a problem, even if it is realistic. Saying "I didn't like his voice" is a completely valid criticism.

I didn't think it was that annoying. Way better than Twist at any rate.

Why not start today?

I'll admit Button's choice was a but grating for me too at first, but it did grow on me. Though yeah could have done a better job with that.
