  1. To me, each princess has their own speciality. They take care of very important things like Friendship or Love and have responsibilities.

     

    What about Twilight? She isn't taller than the others.

     

    She's still growing. If you watch her closely, you notice that she's already a few inches taller than she used to be.

  2. And just to mention it because it's something I have heard really often:

     

    Most modern cases have airflow that is designed to use openings on the its bottomside.

     

    If you have your PC under your desk and it should be standing in a carpet, add €15 for a LACK Ikea couch table. take the plate and place it between the carpet and the PC (or get any other wooden/solid plastic plate that is big enough).

     

    Saves lot of trouble considering air flow and resulting heating problems.

    If you don't need a Blu-Ray Writer and pick a DVD Writer Instead you can save €45 to that.

     

     

     

    just for the fact of even looking at the AMD CPU... lol@the video above...

     

    And if you take a 120GB SSD, you'll regret it; pick directly a 250GB. I know many people who picked 120GB because they were cheaper and then either regretted or exchanged it a bit later.

  4. I'm short before logging off for the night, but some quick starter tips:

     

    First I noticed is that you should give the general scenery a little attention.

    You get a rough idea about what is happening, but no picture regarding the surroundings. It's like a play in front of an almost white screen. What color is the sky? What is the smell in the air? How does the grass feel on the hooves? Put yourself in place of the characters and ask that and a lot of more questions. Then you pick the answers that fits the emotions of the scenery for the best and write it down.

     

    Then, if you insert characters that are not canon and nobody except for you knows, you should take your time to give them at least a rough appearance (more than just their race) and some basic characteristics. Perhaps some personal information that make them both, mysterious and interesting.

     

    The term "child" makes me personally cringe as it is more humanized, but there are some people who use that. It is not necessary to change it, but more commonly (and familiar, in terms we're talking about ponies) are either "foal / filly / colt".

     

    Chapter 2 - Part 1 - 300 words... write the whole chapter out and post it at once. Splitting chapters doesn't really make sense as long as they don't have 5k+ words, it just tends to annoy the reader.

  5. Is this wrong ?

     

    But honestly, their role is a very confuse anyway.

     

     

     

    I don't remember Cadence banishing anyone ? Did I miss something ?

     

    We can't tell for sure, but above statement also is more like my personal (and perhaps softly cynical) thought about it.

     

    Through history, rulers have always been feared, no matter how beloved they also might have been. - and that fear had originated in their use of power, in what form ever.

     

    You also could say that Cadance just got real control as princess over the Crystal Empire when she used the Crystal Heart to defeat Sombra, as he before still most probably was (deducted) king and ponies living and suffering under his influence. We (sadly) don't know too much about the Crystal Empire's Lore in that sense.

  6. You're not a princess until you banished somepony or some other creature.

     

    With defeating Tirek and banishing him back to tartarus, Twilight indeed become a real princess (not just a unicorn with flippity floppers attached to it).

     

    Ponies now do worship her (and perhaps pray to never give her reason to feel her wrath).

     

    Fancy castle was just the merchandise bonus; you can't ask for taxes from others at the same time you're living in a tree.

  7. Fair enough, but looking at it from the customer view point still drives me up a wall because my company deals with that shit all day.

     

    Such shit or literally that alas the same shit, like customers calling "I want my video game to be 20% cooler, or I'll cancel my subscription!"

     

    (sorry, I just had to imagine the depression coming up once that leaks and takes overhand in imptient gaming community :lol:)

  8. I don't know what clichees exist about people who play Hatoful Boyfriend (yes, that one game in which you date and choose between male pidgeons).

     

    But I do know one thing:

     

     

     

    CoD casual noob kiddies :P

  9. Does it count when I reply to that question with: "whenever Spike opens his mouth and not burps a letter" ?

     

     

     

    to give some examples...

     

    "Hello, Rarity. What's that? Aw, it's nothin', just my awesome mustache." (that joke already was over before it had started...)

     

    "Can you do that? Can you explode twice?" (only with enough sugar...)

     

    "I'm coming for you, my lady. Hi-ho, Twilight! Away!" (I'm still shaken today by that purposeful use of horse...)

     

    "Ugh, the rainbow wig just kills it for me." (that wig was awesome...)

     

    "Easy peasy, cider squeezy." (no... just, no...)

     

     

     

    (seriously, Spike has some really awful lines, let it be either monologue or dialogue)

  11. Hello everypony,

     

    Today I want to present My Little Fiction Corner (click) to you.

     

    Since organizing many stories in a forum is troublesome, I put them into gdocs. The link above leads you to the main navigation site.

     

    I do hope that everything is linked correctly, however if you should encounter an error please don't hesitate to let me know (best via pm).

     

    Stories can be commented (via the gdoc comment function) in own documents that you can find on the according fiction's navigation site, however discussion on this thread is welcome too.

     

    My Little Fiction Corner features all stories I have written so far (two will get another review before I launch them) and will continuously get updated with new stories.

     

    The main focus currently is on TwiDash (shipping), however upcoming stories won't feature that anymore but cover a lot of other genres (as a sequel to the Daring Do adventure trilogy, two dark stories, and more slice of life of our favorite ponies).

     

    Whenever I make an update, I'll post according information in this thread.

     

    Editorial help always is appreciated.

     

    Have fun :)

  12. What instantly comes to my mind...

     

    Burnt Umber as Coat Color (should come good on a Crystal Pony) with a mainly dark brown, but also some thin dark yellow to dark gold strands, mane and tail. Design of the mane like Comet Tail, for the tail I would think of something longer, perhaps like Soarin - both with the mentionned dark yellow stripes. Eyes perhaps dark turqouise. Magic aura dark red; fluctuating with small brighter red bubbles, like you imagine a lava lamp.

  13. So after finding her way out of a Forbidden Planet and into a new home, Daring now takes on a quest to find.. the...Duff Beer? Or perhaps out of that box first.

    This box indeed looks like a very perilouos dungeon.

     

    Let's hope Hasbro/Funko give her a whipping accesoire one day.

  14. Hi,

     

    I want to join into the Daring Do Fanclub as it needs far more love than it currently has!

     

    The Adventure Collection made me a huge fan (and also lore collector and analyst) of the Daring Do Series.

     

    I in the meanwhile also have begun writing an own sequel to it - whenever I find time doing so, that is  :squee:
