The Pwnie Award judges were the original bronies. In a blatant attempt at currying their favor, Pinkie Pie chose a handle near and dear to their hearts.

Just slightly less impressive than this feat of clairvoyance was Pinkie Pie’s exploit chain of six bugs that got him full remote code execution in Chrome to win Google’s Pwnium competition at CanSecWest.
