PinkieDash is the only acceptable Dash ship. Well, maybe SpitDash, but never FlutterDash, regardless of how cute they look together.

I'm sorry, Tempy, that's incorrect. Canon. Look it up.

I always though trolls *belonged* in the dungeon

Nope, we send em to the moon!

Lookie what I found, Canterlot!

Flutterdash is best mane 6 shipping.

Mmmmmaybe Pinkie Dash. Maybe.

I think the second sentence is why people are avoiding its use. Perhaps changing this toolip will make the report button seem less exclusive to troll-reporting and for content that does not have a place on the board. Probably finding a more neutral synonym for 'objectionable content'; maybe just something along the lines of 'content which requires moderator attention'.

I'll look into this. Mixed message are just bad mkay?

What if -- What if this thread was revived... And then revived again!? Can you do that? Can you undead twice?

Almost every color takes on a different shade for nighttime scenes. Might just be that magic color is pallette-shifted along with a bunch of other colors.

Oh, for Tales:

[

Soo.. Celestia knew before she ever met Twilight? Because foal Twilight didn't her cutie mark yet. And that day at the entry test was the first time Twilight met the princess, I think she even said that.

Actually, yes. That's it exactly.

She sent the egg to Twilight, and She may have sent Cadence as well, in Her wisdom.

As for "Plus, it sounded like Cadence used to be the foal sitter of a bunch of foals, because otherwise 'How could I forget the foal I loved to sit the most?' makes little sense," keep in mind that this is often used jokingly, like "You're my favorite mom ever." Given that most of us have one mother, this is nonsense. We say it because it's funny and it expresses a sentiment well.

I'm not sure where the notion that braggarts are only trying to hide their own insecurities comes from, ...

Sonic Rainboom. In come from Sonic Rainboom, when she's huddled into a ball, paralyzed with performance anxiety.

Occupy Equestria wins the Best Post of the Thread contest. I love a good character analysis, especially when it contributes to shipping talk.

I do agree that if a young Alicorn foalsits a perfectly normal unicorn, then it would seem that they don't quite have god emperor status.

My theory: Just as Celestia recognized Twilight's potential since before she was in school, and assigned her a personal dragon assistant (word of Faust), Celestia assigned her a special caretaker to help develop her talent. Twilight is a mythical hero, and as such, recieves special attention from the gods that others don't get.

Yeah, as Ashton said, activity will probably plummet rapidly for awhile.

The fandom got LARGER over the last summer break, if you can believe that. Not sure it will happen the same way this time, but the Pony fandom hasn't come close to saturation yet. There's a lot of room to grow. Fans will evangelize this show over the summer. Believe it.

My biggest question was WHY DID SHINING ARMOR SOUND LIKE A FRAT BOY?

Because he was captain of the Guard. The military's got more than its share of meathead-fratboy types.

Street Fighter 2 had destructible environments. Remember those barrels that would bust when you were kicked into em?

I also loved Luna's cameos and few lines. We have also confirmed that she does play a role in the protection of Equestria at night.... Wait... Does that mean that Celestia didn't sleep for a thousand years? Also... that must be one hellova telescope to be able to see over the curvature of the planet and view all of Equestria.

Well, Chrysalis did say that Equestria had more love than any other place she'd encountered. It suggests there are other places. And if there are other places, then equestria needn't cover the whole globe. Thus she wouldn't necessarily need to see over the curvature to watch over all Equestria.

Just to stir the pot a bit with the whole FlutterDash bit:

Personally I don't think anything happened, but go with whatever tickles your fancy. My only worry is the idea of FlutterDash will no doubt will be claimed by some fanatics as the only acceptable fanonship for those two in the fandom; I really hate when fandom shippers do that.

Flutterdash is one of my MTPs. ............ Many True Pairings? But this wasn't a kiss. That was more like a "shwip!" sound.

I haven't! I'm a season 2 brony! I don't know how I'm going to survive... how did you do it the first time?!

Fan works will sustain us.

One more thing: I couldn't help but notice one fancy looking mare in the background.

GINGER MINT IS NOW CANON.

I know, but I was going full Hipster proper pronunciation mode xP Though I'm not actually the kind of person to correct people's actual pronunciation of things IRL.

Ha. More like Alex Trebek. Which, if you think about it, is really hipsterish.

That. Then I thought about the moon, too. Really makes me wonder what that secret could possibly be. I had a thought for a while that maybe Cadence was there to take down Luna and Celestia as rulers, but then I remembered she's related to Celestia xP. Kinda strange that they're using her full name though...given that "mi amore" means "my love", the name would be awkward in English..."We're Princess My Love Cadence's new bridesmaids", etc.

Royalty sometimes do carry long, impractical names around.

*Puts on clown nose, party hat*

I'm totally going. Just bought my ticket. I'll arrange my meetups privately with people I know, like, and trust, but I'll sure be watching this thread to see who else is going, or if a general meetup coalesces.

also, why nobody say hi to starfox or dessa D: or at least starfox. newbies are fun an' all, but it's the big guys that you gotta give the biggest hellos to.

because small hellos won't fit big people

I KNOW I'M FAT AND I'M WORKING ON IT ITS NOT EASY

Also, I just drop in from time to time, but never really follow this thread. No need to welcome lil ol me!

This thread is best read in a Seinfeld voice.

sdfbhdusifdbnsiu WHY THE SPOILER TAGS. You guys are just killing me.

Anyhow, Pinkie's updo is terribad. I like how rarity's mane is so great she didn't even need to style it any differently.

Pinned!

Princess Cadence is the Smooze.

The smooze! If they make a movie, I earnestly hope they put the smooze in it.

♥_♥ Those incredible, amazing sprites! Often, when peeps roll through here, saying they mess with pixels, they're more toward the beginners end. But you've got mad skills. I love the Pokémon style -- I think it's hard not to if you're into pixels. They way they handle outlines in particular caught my interest early on. It's very hard to find flaws with these.

My stuff is here: http://www.canterlot...ember/55-dessa/

I pretty much cut my teeth on pixels with MLP, so there's some stuff there I would consider "early works," made from before I had really developed a process. Everything in that gallery is something I was very proud of when I produced it, but going back, there are some things I don't like. Some of this stuff was very quick -- produced maybe in over the matter of a few hours, and some of it took a very long time indeed.

I'm working on one more major pony project (consisting of multiple images), then I'm probably going to move on to other stuff. I don't know that I'll be entirely done with ponies any time soon, but I'm feeling the itch to expand my skillset.

Tales has like a hundred billion posts. Of course she destroys us all in likes.

And Rosewind has charm oozing out of every orifice. There's just no way to compete with that.

I just realized that Big Mac had no problem tugging along Berry Punch's house, but put the MMMM on top of him, and he struggles.

Obviously Cake > House.

Big Mac pulled that house inspired by the power of luuuuuv ♥_♥. Love conquers all (except Asia in a land war)!
