In the words of AJ:

Whoa Nelly.

Anywho! I am writing a (terrible) fanfic about everyponies favorite mailmare, Ditzy! But I have a problem! Why else would I make this topic!?! To shamelessly self promote?!?

Exclamation marks!

! ! ! !

Anywho; slightly more on topic, Ditzy arrives late to the post office and there is a female griffon "sorting" the mail. Her name is Francesca, a girly name (the most floral, girly name I could think of). This is a rubbish name, and the griffon knows it. What is a name that the griffon would prefer?

The griffon in question is an aggressive, sarcastic and belittling tomboy. Kinda like an angry RD (Don't kill me Dashie fans!).

Ideally, the name is silly, like Oncoming storm, Falling darkness or something. But those are crap. Don't use them. Also, a name with a nickname would be kinda nice.

TL;DR version: A name for a cool, female griffon... who is a Twit.

Thanks in advance!

This story...

Is so unlikely.

I really hope that It is fake, though it could be true.

If its true: meh, people suck.

If its false: meh, people suck.

For entirely different reasons.

Probably this. It would have been fine, I love me some Primarchs, but the artist gave them...mammaries....

RD as Russ made me lol though. Thought towards the end... It gets silly, quite absurd really.

Not sure if it trumps the dog though.

In another dimension...

ension...

ension...

If so, AJ should just ask Dr. Whooves to help.

hmmm... Dr Whooves and AJ, that would be interesting.

ehh...

The old style just looks friendlier, more complete as well. The new style... has a lot of purple, which is a lot harsher than the soft blue. Also, towards the end of thread pages, everything is white, or off white. This doesn't seem complete.

I have never had a problem with slow loading times on the forum. I have had times when everything is unavailable (modem overheat) but never this specific site.

I guess I will just have to use the new one...

oh god... oh god!

my eyes!

Some of the pony art on Deviant Art is... creepy. Not in the way that Parker_Izing's was scary, but just... off slightly.

weesh, wait what? that... doesn't even make any sense.

This is a really good idea for a competition, hoping that this does become a weekly occurrence. Perhaps It could be a small section of a scene, to break it up.

I am fairly sure about my answer...

...and everypony seems to agree in the poll.

eh...

We dont know who the ponies in the picture are. Simple as that. While they could be their parents, they could also be some distant relative or just a painting Granny Smith liked, we dont know. That been said however, I am happy to accept these ponies being the lost parents of the apple family. I kinda accept Ms. Faust's word as the WORD OF GOD, unless explicitly contradicted in the show.

snip!

That kind of makes sense in a weird way...

Which greeting are you most likely to use towards your friends?

why you no have g'day?!?

Couldn't decide between a dragon or scootaloo...

EDIT: apparently wanting scootaloo as a pet instead of a dragon makes me less like Twi and rarity, while more like pinkie.

Full personality description:

A real hard worker you are, yup. If there's one thing you hate, it's being inactive or coming across as lazy. You'll put in more effort than anyone else, even if it may be against your better judgement or even if delagating your work is a smarter option. It's not surprising to see you working all day long, even if it's to help friends out. However, friendship is still important to you, so you will always, always stick to your commitments and keep your promises.

You're a tell-it-like-it-is pony, not holding your tongue and telling whoever whatever's on your mind or what your true thoughts are. Thankfully, you can still pick your words carefully and still keep some sensitivity towards what you say. But, others may find you irritable in appearance if you're not getting your way or you feel against something.

You are also most likely to be athletic and into staying fit, knowing that if you're not, you won't be able to keep up with your work. Fashion and looking good aren't on the top of your priorities, to say the least. You also tend to be very protective of your friends, standing up for them against anyone who is causing them problems, and usually succeeding in warding off any foes. You'd gladly lose a limb if it meant saving a friend's life.

but... but...

But i'm lazy!

If OP is right, this is awesome. the awesome has been doubled. If not, meh...

Hmm, I think that's probably actually from this clip: http://www.colbertna...hain-of-command

It is indeed Scootaloo, but it's like G3.5 or something and he called her Pinkie Pie.

whats this? "content unavailable in your current loca"-OH HELL NO! Flagfox says that it is an Australia server, no wait, its a server in ADELAIDE. I live in Adelaide and the content isn't available. whaaa?

Which ponies? ALL of them.

Snip

wow...

There sure have been a lot of ponies released, most of them terrible! some of the small plastic ones look okay, the rest are... not good.

snip

This.

In relation to the weddings, for me as a kid (one of my best friends was a girl) it was about going to the moon, saving scientists or miners and luna eclipses in the jungle with tribes and stuff. With Lego.

we both were weird, okay?

My point is you are right, as kids we come up with lots of ways to play with toys.

Sandra and woo did a comic on this issue, here.

EDIT: yesss, got the link to work first time!

I think that there would be a lot of name changes.

Or maybe mares do have psychic ability.

Or what if the names predict the cutiemarks?

...

Or perhaps its a cartoon!

I don't think it's only 3 cities. Note that not every map has every city in the world on it. Not only is it an old map, it's likely an old map of Ponyville + surroundings. I like our current map because we came up with things, but you're not going to see that much in an episode based around morals, and not adventures.

I agree compleatly with what you said, BUT I was saying that there were only three cities to show the map is unreliable. I really like the map on the site, the only thing that I dont like is the name of where the zebras come from.

@weesh

Because I love all the episodes, with the exception of about 4. I found myself remembering fondly some of the episodes that I put low on the list, thus regret. Oh, burning regret!

snip!

EDIT: Damn picture, I tried to make it smaller but I cannot seem to...

But the idea... could be cool, but would probably be unnecessarily messy. Icky legal stuff.

My thoughts (and my group of friends) is that it is a good idea to give people suggestions for what to get each other. Saves re-gifting/ throwaway, plus people get to know what each other like!

win-win!

Love and tolerate!

Anywho, I have no problem with role playing. It makes people happy, and is about as harmful as going on tv tropes or wikipedia.

Actually... its probably less addictive...

I personally have never RPed (but i have a mild intrest in doing so.), So as to how fun it is I am probably a bad source.

I really liked this episode. Not my favorite of this Season (the dual pilot, Luna eclipsed and Lesson Zero), but defiantly a very enjoyable episode.

Granny smith is awesome: "waiting for what?".

I agree with it been likely that their parents are dead, but doubt whether it will ever be more than hinted at. Im not sure as to wether i liked the zapp apples, they just seemed off from a visual point of view; rainbows belong to Dashie, not apples. I was expecting them to be dark purple perhaps making weird stuff (flying pots?) happen, more mysterious and magical. I understand that they are kind of magical (hay, they zap you, have elastic stalks and vanish) but I would have preferd them to be more magical.

Ya, I'm complaining over apples not being cool enough.

I fixed your map, Brian! No need to thank me, I'm glad to help!

lol...

By biggest problem with the map (apart from Equestria now apparently having only 3 cities), is the distances. apparently, it is the same distance between Canterlot and the everfree forest, and cloudsdale is about twice the distance! oh, well.

The first is called 'Read it and Weep'. It's going to be another Rainbow Dash episode, airing on the 4th of February, and it comes with the synopsis:

"Rainbow Dash secretly discovers the joys of reading when she's laid up in the hospital."

Yes, I agree with twilight likely having a major role. My initial reaction (beyond: oh noes, Dashies broken her wings again!) was a hope for some angst on the part of Dashie. I hope that the story follows the general idea of Dashie liking reading, but not likening how "uncool" it is, ie it hurting her image. I hope that this episode is more focused on her personality, and less on the moral (dont shoot me).

The second title is 'Hearts and Hooves', is going to air on the 11th of February, and comes with no synopsis.

Well, its on Valentine's, much else is pure speculation. I doubt whether it will involve the CMC. I hope that it is not about a new stalion and the mane 6 fighting for his attention to realise that he is stupid, or something. I highly doubt that there would be any shipping between the mane 6.

what the hay do I know though?

Hmmm...

*takes list*

*breaks it into groups based upon general like-ness*

*thinks*

*re-arranges whole thing*

*move into .txt*

*shifts everything around*

*forgets which episode is which*

*re-watches some*

*forgets what doing*

*hours pass*

*pms Riverhippo*

*regret*

Hmmmm... My understanding (ie, my headcannon) was:

RD - AJ (AJ probably knew most ponies as she works in the market, plus the farm is a major supplier of food)

Pinkie - EVERYPONY (even if just acquaintances, Griffon Brush off shows this. Also, Sugar cube corner is a major supplier of foodstuffs.)

Fluttershy - RD

Fluttershy - Rarity (green isn't your colour, Fluttershy's creepy knowledge of dressmaking)

Possibly:

RD - Rarity (dressing her up in bird in the hoof, though this could be evidence against as well: if Rarity knew RD she probably wouldn't have bothered)

AJ - Fluttershy (Fluttershy seems to be a vet, but Ponyville has a vet.)

But this is all just wild speculation.

While your friend is playing a game or something (mine was playing Skyrim) and he does something awesome (like kill his first dragon) play fluttershy's 'Yay!' or 'Way to go!'. My friend was all smiles and like 'what was that?' and after I showed him, he fell in love with Fluttershy. After that, the conversion was easy.

That... actually seems like a really good idea. But i would never do it, I'm too much of a scootaloo...

I feel like repeating that which has already been said: Don't force him into it, if he is interested he will investigate.

Sooooo out of my league here.

My thoughts exactly.

Q1

I dont really have any idea... Fluttershy? but I doubt that young girls like shy-ness. RD? her tomboyishness might make young girls not like her or someth- what am I saying, I have no idea. ehhhhhhh, that one. Twilight, I guess?

Q2

I think pinkie. I actually think that Dashie would come in rather low on the list due to her... oh ponyfeathers, whats the word? To her posture, shape of her actions and due to the poses she makes. I dunno, girls that age might not see her tomboyishness (if it comes across in her pose) as something they should like/identify/care about. Also blue may be a negative, but the only young girl that I can base this decision on is my 12yr old cousin, who LOVES pink and purple... she made her parents re-paint her room hot pink.

Its up in the air for me, between Twilight, Pinkie and Rarity. Voted Pinkie

I really have no idea

hmmm... this is quite good. The sound quality is high, and the interface is intuitive...

Curse these ponies, they drive me to insomnia!

ummm... roller derby and Tennis (Call of the cutie). That's all I can think of...

Arguably archery, as one of the foals in Cherilee's class has a bow and arrow for a cutie mark.
