  1. Voted for Twilight, and somehow missed the Luna vs Discord fight. However, I feel this is appropriate for Applejack and Woona.
  2. I am not a turtle so stop asking!

  3. To clarify I was saying I would like a more mature game in regards to style and as others have said going more in depth with the characters. Majora's Mask was my favorite in the series and still has yet to be supplanted. I am not calling for an M rated game, but rather one truly worthy of T. The more recent games have gotten a great deal lighter in tone overall. I don't care for blood and gore, that isn't what I am after with Zelda anyway, but I would like a bit crisper presentation is all. That and the return of Oni Link.
  4. Not a fan of Mondays or Tuesdays. I spend all of Tuesday thinking it's Thursday only to find out I am two days off. And Monday just sucks regardless.
  5. Its a reference to the furry fandom. Something that many associate the brony fandom with despite the fact the two are distinct and furries have been around a great deal longer.
  6. The new banner scares me...

      Adblock to the rescue!

  7. They have counselors in the afterlife?
  8. Dont know how I forgot Twilight Princess considering I even mentioned it in my post lol. Poll updated but unsure how to add the ability to change your vote so as to include it. @Artemis can you help with that?
  9. http://gengame.net/2013/04/ubisoft-outs-hylian-creed-for-wii-u-to-be-released-april-2014/ While I realize this is another April Fools prank I would have to say I would love to play this game! Or the Zelda that was featured in 2011's tech demo for that matter. Sad to say though Nintendo seems to be convinced that Zelda will only sell if marketed towards children a la Wind Waker and Skyward Sword. While these were good games I would really like to see a more mature focused Zelda return like Majora's Mask. And yes I know how dark the endings of both these other games are. I just want an overall more mature theme and style. Twilight Princess (pun unintended) was decent in styled, but I wasn't a fan of the fact that everything was brown looking. Ocarina of Time and A Link to the Past are the most popular games in the series for a reason. I just don't understand why Nintendo can't understand that.
  10. You shall be missed. We will mourn... COOKIES!!! *NOM NOM NOM* Anyway back to what I was saying... um.... what was I talking about? Oh well. Must have not been very important.
  11. I agree, it is a great song! I was not sure about it when it first got leaked on Equestria Daily, but after seeing it in the show it beat out Love is in Bloom (full) for me.
  12. I was wondering the same thing Arty. Though that might be her way of fooling everyone. Not doing anything today and then releasing some crazy info tomorrow.
  13. Highly unlikely that they would release actual information on April Fool's. That being said it is clever as since it is April Fool's no one is likely to trust them and they know this, which makes them more likely to reveal true information. However, given that she also confirmed seaponies I highly doubt the legitimacy of this.
  14. Top five huh? Hmm tough how about: TanktheTortoise TanktheTortoise TanktheTortoise TanktheTortoise and @Feld0 Gotta include master of the site! Hehehe In all seriousness though this is very unfair as I like pretty much everyone on this site.
  15. I have decided to come out of the closet! I am actually a turtle not a tortoise!

  16. Pretty sure the mods see my awesomeness for the truth that it is!

      Hooray! Jesus' three days respawn delay is over! He must be a team killer it have serious lag.

  18. I really hate to say this given how much I was looking forward to the episode, but I was not a fan. The voices seemed off especially considering that I have heard voices elsewhere in fan made material that seem truer to the real voices. The animation was well done, if a bit stiff at times. I was taken by surprise with the amount of in jokes that were in the project seeing as this was supposed to be professional grade. All that aside I was able to at least watch it... until the Powerpuff Crossover. I have no problems with the PPG themselves as they were pretty spot on in writing and style (ironic seeing as the ponies were not anywhere near as spot on with the writing). The thing was when the crossover happened, while I wasn't a fan, I was willing to accept it, but it just continued to drag on for 15 minutes. It was like the second half devolved entirely from an interesting concept to 'Let's watch the PowerPuff Girls chase Rainbow Dash for a quarter hour.' I feel that the bad level of the writing and the crossover themselves could have been forgiven if this wasn't touted as an official level quality show. For a senior project, it was quite well done, but for an actual episode it was not. I find it odd that Snowdrops received far less media attention yet seems to me to be much higher quality. Overall: 5/10 Voices: 7/10 Writing: 3/10 Animation: 9/10 Humor: 2/10 That being said however, I still have to give a round of applause to all involved. While I may not have enjoyed it I know that others likely did. The amount of hard work that went into this for all involved must have been ridiculous, and for that I commend the creators. I look forward to seeing more from them as time goes on and hopefully they develop a stronger style to cover for the weaknesses others and I have observed.
  19. As a Christian I actually support gay rights including marriage. The chief teaching of Christ was that we are all sinners and we should love our fellow man. I personally believe that discriminating against homosexuals for something many argue is in their genetics (and thus can't be helped) is just as bad as condemning someone for their race, or in the case of this fandom, because they watch a 'little girls show'. Whether being homosexual is a sin or not I cannot say for I am a simple human being and not my all knowing Lord. However, I can say this, God accepts thieves, murderers, rapists, along with everyone else. No sin is greater than another in his eyes. Christ said that 'He without sin should cast the first stone.' and then even he did not cast the stone. Therefore, I believe if we are to truly call ourselves Christian (meaning to attempt to be like Christ) we should accept these people, and refuse to condemn them. Sadly though, I realize I am in the minority of Christians, given this viewpoint. I do hope one day though that I won't be and Christians will be as accepting and forgiving as we are supposed to be.
  20. Got the countdown open on another page. I am definitely looking forward to it, and I hope that more fan videos gain traction and have the intelligence to go to Hasbro first, like this one, rather than hoping they will be protected under fair use.
  21. Thought I would like fluttershy and after watching the show she was confirmed to be my favorite character! I guess I'm an oddball in that I kept the same favorite before watching the show and after.
  22. I keep them streaming at all times for background noise. As far as actually sitting down to watch the ep in its entirety prolly about 3 or so a day.
  23. The background ponies will eventually unite the sheep and cows under the Vox Ponypuli and overthrough the Founders being lead by Father Celestia. Father Celestia a dictator who has fashioned a cult that is the dominant religion in Equestria. Find out more in Pinkie Pie-oshock Infinite!
  24. I think shipping costs too much, but then the people at UPS and FedEx have to get paid somehow . In all seriousness though I have unconciously developed a couple of ships in my mind, and I don't mind that others may or may not agree with them. Personally I find it one of those things that happens in every series. A viewer thinks two characters would be perfect for each other and starts viewing practically every interaction between the two as one of affection. I don't think people should argue over which ship is the best because in the end it is all made up in perception and doesn't truly exist in reality until the writers put it into the show (which will never happen as that was one of the main things Lauren Faust made clear shouldn't be in it). It is good to know that we grow attached to these characters to the point we want them to find love. It is a credit to the writing.
