What a coincidence. Mine means "Gift from God" too. We have more in common than we realized. How many more "Gifts from God" were in your elementary school? I was one of 7 in my class.

The only thing this episode needed was that giant button on 7th Avenue. Good show, fellow straphanger!

I don't think so. Parasites (which is what they are) can't feed off themselves, can they? I think it's just in their biology.

Heh. "Seeds of Discord".

While I cannot fault a predator for feeding, the Changelings have the benefits of being a subtle race. Why invade? Why try to break your way in? Heck, why try to perform any grandiose action that would result in fear? How could the subjects of Celestia ever love a creature that tried to lay siege to their city? If Chryssie was clever and genuine about caring for her subjects, she would have done it one or two at a time. Replacing or simply adding to the population, feeding her people and nopony would have known anything had happened. I don't think they're evil. I think they were soldiers driven to the brink of starvation lead by, frankly, a fantastically stupid royal decree. Are they Fridge Horror? You betcher keister. Evil? Eh, I'm going to say an entire race of evil can't exist in this universe. Besides, raise your hand if you yourself would... feed a Changeling for a while. *cough*

So I think it's my job to resurrect this thread every time a new update hits. For starters, this exists: http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Magical_Mercenary. Complete with "Friendship is freakin' magic!" lines and similar fun. They basically threw us one massive bone during the Halloween update. Next, a new MvM update! Loads of fun! Go play! Finally, Bramble Rose on this very board decided to step back into the game briefly. He traded me a Vintage Kritzkrieg. As thanks, I did this:

I've been surviving on rations (the comic books) for weeks! I'm starving! But tomorrow it's time for a buffet! GET HYPE!

Mainly this, combined with an overall giddiness. I wish I could throw a party on the twenty third.

Okay. I think I'm getting some 'Mon with Pokerus. Once I get it for sure (and research how to spread it), I'm spreading the infection with all you guys.

I may or may not be searching for foreign Roselias for just that purpose...

Skype has groups now? But then again, I just use it for teamspeak in Borderlands 2. Assuming I figure this out, I may join! Also, has anyone had any luck catching Pumpkaboos? Are they rare or am I just bad luck?

For reference to all (it can't not be asked), Sylveons can be reliably gotten at level 10. Breed yourself an Eevee. It learns Baby Doll Eyes at level 9, which is a Fairy move and a must have. At this time, level up your new furry friend in Pokemon Amie. Give it those cakes, play games, pet, make goofy faces, the works. Ten to twenty minutes of work will earn you this big shower of hearts from li'l Eevee. You are ready. Level up once more. Boom Sylveon. Current team after Gym 6: Kaboodle, my Delphox. Eyelander, my Doublade. Florence, my Gogoat. Bubble Berry, my Sylveon. A yet unnamed Crobat. There's room for one more! It may be Goomy, if for instance it can learn Surf.

I... got my female Fennekin on my first go. Her name is Kaboodle and I love her to death. It was on the drive down to NYCC and I was musing over the 1/8 chance of getting a girl, knowing I have never ever gotten a female starter before. Words can't describe how much I love the GTS backed by 3DS hardware. I got a Goomy from Spain yesterday and I'm trying to breed for a shiny.

I cannot believe there isn't a thread for this yet. It's been for about a week now! Personally, I have X (with the special edition X-flavored 3DS). Post your teams here! Ask for/give advice here! Avoid spoilers! Get hype! Post friend codes! Right now, I just finished Gym 4. I was born to be on Team Fenniken. Adorable little pet fox turns into cute witch girl turns into glorious unstoppable wizard. Oh, be still, my aching heart. Rest of the main team (I'm experimenting with a lot of guys, old and new) consists of a Doublade who hungers for the blood of enemy 'Mons and a Gogoat who is a noble steed/freight train. GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL!

In order: XYZ, Elemental Heroes (Get it? Because hero worship?), uhm... Harpies? I dunno. It's been ages since I played. What I was trying to go for was how the CMC's decks revolved around teamwork. E-Heroes need more E-Heroes to win. X-Head Cannon needs Y-Dragon Head and Z-Butt Tank (I forget his name ) to win. Etc etc etc. But yes, despite their lack of support, Pinkie needs Toon World. She basically lives there!

Hi. Uhm, I don't suppose you're still taking requests? If you are, (Why do I feel guilty about asking?!) I don't suppose you could please make an Amanita Muscaria? That red and white mushroom everyone has seen, also here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amanita_Muscaria Thank you so much in advance!

...wow, really? Thank you! I didn't expect it to be so... instant?

That's what happened to Ravnica? I had no idea! I feel rotten all of a sudden. That aside, I think I need to look up what Dragon's Dogma is.

Still here. Haven't forgotten. Full time job. Still reading. Though what would give me something to think about in between chapters is where you were thinking about going with this. Sure, it's a two-person Round Robin, but how far would you like to see this go?

Roleplay Type: WoE Name: Fungus Amungus Sex: Male Age: Young stallion Species: Earth Pony Eye colour: Fire Brick. #B22222 Coat: Buff. #F0DC82. Unshorn fetlocks. There are some patches in his coat missing due to a slight case of Ringworm on his back. Pretty gross. He should see a doctor. Mane/Tail: Hunter Green. #355E3B. The mane is long, unkempt and in a bad need of a brushing. It's kept slicked back with a bandana that matches his eyes. That could also use a washing. Physique: Average height and a stocky build. Residence: A tent and wagon he drags around, which is mostly full of mushroom samples, field guides and research notes. Occupation: Student. He hopes to make money off his findings in Canterlot to a) biologists of high repute and b) gourmet chefs of high repute. Cutie Mark: Amanita Muscaria. The famous red mushroom with white speckles. To him at least, it signifies everything he admires about fungus: their ability to grow wherever they find themselves. He only wishes he could be that cool. History: Fungus Amungus grew up the only son of a pair of farmers that specialized in waste disposal and mulching. It was a very dirty job but in a town like Dodge Junction with its arid climate, their help with the local agriculture was greatly appreciated. Mind the smell. He was named as such thanks to how large he was at birth. The doctors joked that he 'mushroomed'. Since he was young, mushrooms fascinated him due to their ability to grow pretty much anywhere. In patches of land where absolutely no other plant would go, some form of his little friends would pop up and be gross and weird and he loved them. And he read every little field guide he could get his hooves on; to learn the good ones, the bad ones (for eating), the other bad ones (to clear from the local cherry orchard) and the ugly ones (in the shower). This dedication to study came in handy once. Come harvest time every year, a ranger would ride into town to survey operations on the family 'rot farm'. He would bring his boy along as well and send him off to play with Fungus as the grownups talked. Bramble Rose, as was the other foal's name, also happened to be the studious type and was anxious to travel the wilderness (the backyard) with his new buddy to see what they could see. Bramble came across what looked like a button mushroom; common to everywhere and unremarkably white. He thought he should pick a few to snack on and pick a few more for his buddy. Now here's where that dedication came in handy: Fungus recognized the subtle differences in Bramble's find. Not a common Button where they, but instead the horribly toxic Destroying Angel. He saved his buddy's life that day, in a neither gentle nor subtle tackle to the ground. Suddenly Fungus had to explain to dad why he made his new friend cry and where that cutie mark came from. Suddenly the casual (and at times, creepy) hobby of an exuberant youth had grown. Fungus had grown. His knowledge and action could improve lives. Save them even. Fungus Amungus was spending a lot more time collecting samples and keeping his magnifying glass clean after that day. Harvest times came and went, and thus Bramble's visits. The two remained pen pals through the rest of the year, not to mention one or two surprise summer vacations. There would also be, from his buddy, Hearth's Warming presents containing textbooks or field guides on mycology. Fungus was thrilled every year. Firstly, because apparently his weird hobby had a name. Secondly, because Dodge Junction's library was painfully lacking. Third, some of the texts were out of date or full of folk traditions that were just plain wrong. That gave him an idea. His last letter to Bramble, as well as his hopefully-not-goodbye to his teary eyed parents, explaining that there was a big wilderness out there that needed proper cataloging for the safety of others. Also for science. Mostly science. So he packed up his wagon and prepped for the long hike to Canterlot, who would praise him for his findings and not at all chastise him for his reckless behavior. Reckless, in regards to the northwest passage he chose, which leads right through the Everfree forest. Because that's where the science is. Character Summary: Fungus Amungus is not a quiet pony. He's bright and bubbly and enthusiastic about his area of expertise, which is bad for him, because his area of expertise is disgusting. It has never once dawned on the pony that what they're choosing as a pizza topping potentially grew in poop. Hoof-in-mouth syndrome isn't the only disease he suffers from either. While it's normal for a foal to play in the mud now and then, they didn't grow up around mulch. There's a bit of a smell that's pretty much ground into the pony. That and the constant recreational exposure to molds, spores and fungus have given him the occasional infection. Hygiene aside, he's very easy to get along with and certainly non-confrontational, ready with a 'good morning' at a moment's notice. He's even happier when surrounded by nature. He believes the world and its mechanisms, especially the small and dirty parts that most ponies ignore or revile, are just awesome and would like nothing more than to help people appreciate that. While Fungus isn't at all the pony to stand up to bullies (he had plenty of his own, thanks to the smell), that doesn't mean he lets them get away with their shenanigans. He will simply help the poor soul back up to their feet, pat them on the back and casually mention that the jerk du jour may come down with food poisoning tomorrow. And by 'may', he meant 'will'. This optimism stayed with him during his journey through the Everfree. It helped him keep a cool outlook and keep moving forward, thinking about how proud his friends and family will be when they hear from their boy again. * * * * * I admit I'm a little apprehensive about posting this. The last time I submitted a pony for the Mane RP, it was a garbage self insert that should never be dug up again. The experience shied me away from trying a second time. I mainly stayed in Free-for-All for a while, getting used to the pacing of things and how to actually make good OCs again. Fungus here is actually an import from a Magic:The Gathering RP I was running. He was definitely the best natured of my brood, drawing inspiration heavily from Bill Nye, Alton Brown and the anime Moyasimon. I brought him here mainly because of good friend on this site: Bramble Rose. He is such a good DM for the Pathfinder campaign we're running (also on this site ), I asked him something along the lines of "I am aware that there is a Mane RP Bramble as well as a lvl 3 Sorcerer/lvl 1 Druid Bramble. Does he have a bestest best friend yet?" "No?" "Good, he does now." He even helped me iron out drafts before submission! And here we are. That long winded explanation is proof that I'm nervous. Anyway, cheers. I hope I passed the audition.

I'm a couple chapters in. So far so good. But I think I'm too much of a Lemony narrator (http://tvtropes.org/.../LemonyNarrator) to make this a comfortable fit. Not that I won't try, of course. Besides, I have about a dozen more chapters to finish. Reading ho! Though, come to think of it, considering the chapters are so short, I bet a bunch of other people could get in on this. Maybe. Sort of a Round Robin. (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RoundRobin). But on a site like this, where does a Round Robin begin and an RP end? Not sure. Just typing random thoughts now. Hawaiian pizza. Anyway, Reading Ho!

M:TG has a pretty vast multiverse. I personally was running one with Ravnica as a setting some time ago. Have somewhere else in mind? Dominaria? Mirrodin? Kamigawa? Innistrad? I'm gushing! Inquiring minds want to know!
