Urgent! Mascot needed!

Waffles has been arrested at the bakery for multiple healthcode violations and unauthorised use of icing.
Poffertje and Fan are at a loss for what to do.

In order to try and help them out, we need a new mascot and we need your help!
If you think your OC has got what it takes to be the next PonyCon Holland mascot (and run a bakery or something), please send us their name and a picture to mascot@ponyconholland.com!

Free Waffles: Update

Our apologies for not giving you an update on Waffles' situation sooner.
After Waffles' arrest earlier today, Fan Brush set out to find the Health Inspector responsible for this whole situation, meanwhile, Poffertje has decided to stay at the bakery to decide which of our new mascot candidates are most suited for the position (as far as we know, nothing in the bakery has exploded so far).
We patiently await a response from Fan Brush.

 

Waffles is free: Conclusion!

Thank you all for your overwhelming support, the PonyCon Holland lawyers have been working around the clock to make sure Waffles gets to see the light of day again.

Through a legal loophole and the sudden disappearance of the health inspector the legal team was able to prove Waffles is actually an expert in handling large quantities of icing, and therefore does not need an authorized permit.

We appreciate everypony's mascot submissions! Below we compiled some of the entries we got! If another situation like this ever comes up, we'll be sure to reach out!


And for those of you wondering, yes, this entire thing was an april fools joke.
