  1. I'm glad to see that we're not the only ones in France to have bad adds. Honestly, i've also ben observing that phenomenon which is the steadyly decrease in credibility of adds. Each time a new add i'm like "Oh my.....what the **** is that ***.."

    There was a time where the big thing was to redub american / english adds with dubing not at all matching the lips, making it so obvious you just remembered the add not for its product but because how bad it was dubed. But even worth, now they are redubing even FRENCH videos! They don't even try to make it sound comvincing or reshooting a piece of the advertisment, they really just rework the scripts, with the same pictures.

    Good adds are really now rare to find, and take us really for dumb people..and it's universal.

  2. So it's been about 9 hours since the season finale aired... Sooo i imagine that every brony has already seen it... and i won't waste time explaining how awesome it was...

    I have to say, i watched Evil Cadence's song (This day aria) a Couple of time now, and it just gives me shivers every time i do... i love the emotion she shows and just how evil she truly is. It's also easy to see the contrast between the two cadences. I just loooove villain songs!

    Forget hakkunah mattata, Give me Be Prepared!

    I dont want a song about Notre Dame, i want Hellfire!

    I don't care for Ariel's song, i want Poor Unfortunate Soul!

    Bring it on Bronies! Give me a song! I'll tell you that the villain song form the same movie is twenty times better!

    Nice NC reference :P

    AS far as i'm concerned, I've been listening to many different bad guys songs in many languages. It really depends on the song, but i must say the english version of Hellfire is great. Be prepared is awsome is german, or in French.

    There are so many good ones, it's hard to choose.

  3. Twilight as an heir is a plausible explanation, but it's also quite hard to imagine. My personnal opinion is that she coudln't be Celestia's heir, for the simple reson that she's just..a Unicorn. Celestia and Luna have been rulling for thousands years, and it seems they have still quite a way to go. If something happened to Celestia, it's probably Luna who's take over, with perhaps somepony to help her, but she 'd be the next on the list. And if something happened to Luna too, well Twi could take the throne, but only if she's still alive. I don't think she'd live long enough to even see something like this happening.

  4. Greetings everypony!

    After a long period of exams, i finally managed to get time to start my real rp with Blitz. I would like one, or more ponies (don't be shy ^^) to interact with her during one of her patrols around ponyville or in the region. I have no specific plot, just go with the flow :) I know it's quite vague, but the first rp is a base for future ones.

    I'll be waiting for your offers :) And who know, perhaps it's the begining of a nice friendship, or a rivality. Or anything else, the sky's the limit! (at least for pegasi :P )

  5. +1 for Syel. I know a fandom made map of equestria which includes "Prance" as a region :)

    Here are some towns the author has come with: Coat d'Azor , Pearis, Escargoat (love that one^^) , Horsaille, Guadeloope, Le Manes, NeightChatel (IRL Cöte d'Azur, Paris, a pun with "Escargot", ie snails, Versailles, Guadeloupe, Le Mans, Neuchatel).

    For credits, here is the map:http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/08/map-of-equestria.html

    Dowload it on the artists DA page to be able to zoom and explore :)

  6. I made a few changes. Though even if i deleted a good part of my application i'd still like to keep most of it...i feel like it would be incomplete otherwise. But if you REALLY think i must cut even more, i'll do it.

    Name : Sorena "BlitzStar" GoldenHooves

    I'm going to ask that this be cut down to Blitz Star. Ponies don't use surnames, though families may name their children with a certain theme in mind. Alternatively, Blitz Star could be her nickname and have a more mundane given name.

    I tryed changing it to reflect that point, it's true the first version could be confusing.

    Occupation: Improove the reputation of the "Thunderbolts" and helping needfull ponies, all while conducting her secret task.

    Let's strike this. Her occupation is platoon leader in the REA.

    I knew i had this line to delete, but perhaps i was tired...i couldn't find it XD

  7. Okay, thanks for these comments. I've read them, plus the REA topic, and here are the questions that poped:

    - I think that, from the context i want to set up, officer in the regular army is the best situation. AS you said, she can be training in parallel to become a major officer in the Special forces, and my lil story about Ponyville defense can be her personal project

    - Since you said war isn't common, her platoon could be reduced, as suggested, to a guarison and civilian duty. Though, i was wondering what kind of speciality would fit the platoon best, considering Blit's path? I guess a reconnaissance platoon would suit best, since she's a pegasus.

    - I suppose her platoon could be newly formed with fresh recruit from the same promotion that her. Do you have any defined number/denomination for that platoon's name and hierarchy? Shall they have a specific uniform or just a light distinctive sign?

    Perhap^s her platoon is the only one in Cloudsdale?

    - As a 2nd lieutenant, shall i also come up with a name for her lieutenant or do you consider her as the highest ranqued officer of the platoon? If i may also ask, what's the highest officer already in cloudsdale?

    sorry for these questions, but since we touch to something quite vague i want to be sure i don't make any mistakes :)

  8. Hellow fellow musicians and musical artists :)

    I'm working on quite an ambitious project; i know some ponies won't like it, but ey...each one of us has a project he'd like to do :) Some remix the songs, some sing them along, i decided to do something new.

    My project is an "extended" version of the "At the Gala" song. Of course, only instrumental, i can't get extra voices for it, but i'm also working on some lyrics so...if i manage to get it done, if someponies are interested in singing it ;)

    Anyway, i'd like to associate an instrument with a pony. I need your opinion on which one would suit which pony best. WIth a more precise focus on:

    - The main 6

    - Spike

    - Celestia

    - Derpy

    Soooo thanks for your help, if you wanna help. If you don't, well...thanks anyway for reading :)

  9. Thanks for the picture, i'll tell the artist about that :)

    Before we begin, I'm going to make the call that the "Great Hay Depression" is irrelevant to the character herself and can safely be omitted from the application. What she can do during RP is make references to an economic depression or how her family acted in history. Like you said, some of Equestrian history is nebulous, so you can make fun little references while speaking, PROVIDED that it does not refer to events that would completely change the way other people would have to play their characters.

    Of course, i didn't intend to.

    As for Blitz Star herself, after giving this app some thought I think we need to approach this from a fundamentally different direction, so I'm going to back up and ask a different set of questions. What do you want to do with this character? Do you want her to be full-on military? Likes doing things by the book? Or is she too independent and flighty for the military? I can see her going either way. She obviously has the brains and initiative to be a great officer, but she is also obsessive-compulsive and independent to a fault, which might lead her to dislike the military chain of command. The decision of which path you want to take is ultimately up to you.

    I see what you mean. Well foundamentaly, she's been in the military a bit by defaults in order to avoid being study less. In a sense, she enjoys it because it allows her to use her skills and hability to serve Equestria, and she knows that with time she'll have more and more possibilities to do it as she gets higher in the hierarchy. But what's interesting is, as you said, her independant and the fact she can be compulsive. These defaults could lead her to conflicts with the chain of commands, and eventualy disobey if she thinks her plan is going to work better and with more efficency. This hasen't happened yet, because she's only on her first mission, but i'm thinking about the future. As the times goes on , some of her higher officers can get in conflict with those who like her, starting to monitor her closely for the tiniest lil fault. Sh could be subject to an improoved surveillance to check if she does her job right and that her tendancy to get compulsive and think by herself doesn't mess up with the objectives, or even Equestrian safety. Of course, she never thinks about that, and always tries to do her best.

    I don't know if it's quite clear ^^'

    to sum up, she want's to stay on the military, but in the future her personality may lead to conflicts with her chain of command and reactions from her superior officers, even if some tend to like her.

  10. Thanks for that interesting feedback on my caracter application.

    - First i appologize, i didn't see it already existed a MLP OOB. Quite interesting i may say, impressive. Even if there are one or two things i wouldn't have done that way, i'll stick to it and say Blitz has been enroled, as you said, in the Reserve Training Corps.

    - You say that "such a secret mission" can't be given to a cadet. I forgot to precise it, because i thought it was evident since she is no more at military school, but she's not a cadet anymore. Her service would more a sort of mix between a military section and the REIN...she's not technically a spy, but she's not either a soldier, even if she can later be asked to lead some troops when she'll have enough experiment. It's a bit complicated...do you have an idea on the subject?

    - Since she's no more a cadet, i saw that mission as a sort of "test", her first real expereiment. It can be cquite a vital thing, but it's not so urgent and she can take her time...it's not like she had been sent in a deep dark castle to kill a supreme evil creture...We can see that as her first eperiment as as a young officer on the terrain.

    - Concerning the Tunderbolts, it's more an official cover than anything....it's just an idea i had to make her eeryday life more exciting and allow her to travel and explore around ponyville and Cloudsdale with a sort of reason. Besides, it helped me giving some flavour to the rp, each mission could be a base to work with an other pony, instead of just wandering around and eventually found a pony on the way.

    But if you want me to try finding something else, i'll do it :)

    - An other important point i wanted to mension and i never got a clear answer. For example, i mension in my presentation the "Grand Hay depression" which is, of course, completly invented. I also see you're very interested in the fact that Sorena could be read in Gripphin and Equestrian history. But there is no official Equestrian history, either on the forum or the anime. Since i 'm myself creating my own vision of Equestria history, to what extend i can use invented events/history/battle in the main RP.?

    And if you're looking for someoone to help you developping the Background for the forum, i'm more than willing to help you :)

    That's the question i have in my mind for the moment. I'm more than pleased you enjoy my caracter and beleive it has some potential on it. I'll do my best to play her as best as i can :)
