Considering the subject matter this should be in the 18+ section.

You should clarify if the grimdark nature will be present or not... Otherwise I don't think this topic will last long.

Oh, yay, thanks

The first of many? O: I'm confused.

That was my first stamp as SRP

Hey there, your friendly neighborhood SRP here.

Before I can stamp this app, I need to ask you for two things. The first is a name change. "Losing your marbles" is a common colloquialism for being crazy, so Lost Marbles doesn't really fit the flavour of WoE. We prefer names to not have any negative connotations.

The other thing is a bit more detail in the character summary. Perhaps go into how she interacts with ponies and her friends. Other wise this seems like a good foal app!

Considering that they are based on The Blue Angels, I'm going with that. An elite aerial stunt team associated with the military. This allows them the most flexibility. They can be called in for homeland defense and are primarily a stunt and trick team that does events (like races)

Why thank you all, yes shooting stars are awesome, so I was glad this name wasn't taken yet lol. And on the note of FE5, aka Fire Emblem: Thracia 776, I am currently playing through it right now, I'm on Ch. 12, and it seems to be good for the most part, but it kinda... idk, it lacks something, like it feels somewhat pointless sometimes. The Gaiden chapters are horribly short, so I'm hoping the game gets better in the later chapters, but for now, FE4 is still my favorite. GO CELICE! Lol.

FE4 Is quite a good one. I've only played about half of them unfortunately... I'm currently playing Awakening which is fantastic.

The reason I ask about FE5 is because it was the most frustratingly hard FE in my experience (and most other fans of the series to the point where many don't wish to ever speak of it). For almost no reason. It was a decent enough entry into the FE repertoire though.

Well nobody knew me when I first joined the site either. I ended up making a few friends along the way. Hopefully the site will treat you as well too!

Welcome to Canterlot.

(Also shooting stars are totally awesome IRL)

EDIT! Upon looking at your profile I see that you like the Fire Emblem series... So I must ask... What are your thoughts about FE5?

Also Fire Emblem is awesome!

Highly opinionated and outspoken. But whose opinions [mostly] aligned with mine. Thus I liked her from the start.

The game is simple... Post your first impression of the user above you that you had on this site. And keep going.

Keep in mind this is in all good fun.

Does parkour count? I've been doing that for a while. Though I'm a bit out of practice, because I moved to an area where there isn't enough around me to train.

Would it be ok to be the one working at the bar?

I don't have a problem with that. I was going to have an NPC, but honestly if I could replace every NPC with a player I would

I have added Peridot Mellow to my list of attendees as she literally just got approved today. Hope this is not a problem.

Nope not at all!

Bump! Thread is live!

Either by donation (when they are back up) or a moderator assigns you one.

But mostly by donating.

It needs approving by the moderating team.

Everything looks good to me now. I'm going to pass this up to SRPHS to look over. If there are any other issues either they or I will let you know here.

And naturally so! Technically speaking Twilight and the mares from the first episode were Canterlotians, they didn't seem snobbish at all. And then you have Fancy Pants, who is the most affluent Canterlotian who is generally awesome. Then one can assume the window washer who met Rarity at the hoedown is a Canterlotian.

The snobbish ones were highlighted in Rarity's visit, so they could be contrasted by Fancy Pants.

The dice roll is happening tonight. I'll probably be PMing the "winner" later on.

From now on any and all sign-ups will not be for the mystery.

Edit: Both Dice rolls are done. PMed the winner already. When they respond I'll work on getting the first thread up if all goes well.

ALRIGHTY! Without any further delay it is time to do a full critique of this app.

So, let us begin. First off overall the application is good. However, as I told you in PM there are some issues, mostly revolving around pushing lore onto WoE.

First thing that caught my eye was this line:

an almost stereotypically Stalliongrad type

Put simply we don't really do stereotypes in WoE. I discussed it with the creator of the lore for the area, and he even said that there was no intent to create a stereotypical character type, but the lore was designed to show a Slavic feel to it. The easiest thing to do would be to simply remove that!

I'm also iffy about the line about the prestigious Canter Uni program. Personally I'd just say the university is prestigious rather than any individual program.

Personally I'd tone down the assumptions about foods as well. Stating she likes traditional food from her home town is fine, but try to not make lore up about what foods taste like or are like in different areas of Equestria.

Same can be said of "Snobbish Canterlot." I know there is some canon backing to that, but there is equal backing that shows that Canterlotians aren't all like that. It is fine if she thinks it, but don't state that as fact.

And last but not least the line

being a magic talented earthpony

Is misleading... Earth ponies aren't talented in aether. They can possibly understand and teach it, that is fine, but that is suggesting that she can perform magic which shouldn't be possible without a horn. They can brew potions which can be considered a part of magic though.

And I think that covers it! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask!

I have 1 question.... Which martial art?

Also welcome to canterlot

I think we need to make it a rule to have fun.

Welcome Aurum! Really hope you enjoy it here. Hope to see you in RP soon

If I'm out in the city and have time to kill... this seems like a fun way to do it

I requested an invite

Yup, totally am. At least for the random drawing for the culprit.

At this point I should mention how it will work... The list of ponies will be fed into the list randomizer over at Random.org. And that will give each pony a number between 1 and whichever number the list is at. Then I'm going to use the true random number generator to pick a number with in those from the same site. If all goes well a random pony and RPer will be chosen.

The location of the item will be done in a similar manner. The riddles will be made after everything is determined. If the person playing the culprit wants they can aid in making any subsequent clues and riddles. This is of course only if they so choose.

The item has already been chosen but that will be part of the mystery

I'm here

Just a side note. Fire Walker and Moon Walker are my characters, and I give full permission for this OC to be part of the family!

Will Sky Walker bring balance to the force? Er... I mean family?
