  1. IT'S ON, DAAAAAAAAARLING Finally Twilight makes it to the Magic Bowl...only to face the defending champion, THE attractive pony, Rarity. Does she stand a chance? The Magic Bowl starts tomorrow, and it's a two-week round!
  2. Applejack. She's not my favorite pony, but screw that. She's tough as nails, dependable and fair with a heart of gold and no ulterior motives whatsoever. I don't believe in guardian angels, but I couldn't ask for a better protector than her.
  3. An entire fandom? Never happened. Some individuals have bothered me, but that's it. Silent Hill 1 and 2 are the most fondly remembered, it seems. I think everything that came after was diminishing returns, a slow process of Team Silent rehashing what had already been done as Akira Yamaoka's inspiration dried up. But you have the right to pick any favorite you want. SH 4 and Shattered Memories are both fine games. For the record, my favorite one by far is Silent Hill 3.
  4. I'm amazed Twilight is maintaining her lead. This is nothing like her last battle with Luna. If she does win, it'll be her first ever trip to the Magic Bowl!
  5. 1. Well, duh. I'm Rainbow Dash! How could I NOT be number one?! 2. Oh, my! Truly I am flattered. But then, my episodes do tend to be among the finest on the show, don't they? 3. Well I sure do appreciate the compliment, but I'm really just a workin' pony. No need to make some big announcement about me bein' your third favorite and all. 4. You like me so much you even tried a cupcake with hot sauce once!! Sorry you didn't like it though. 5. I'm in fifth? Well, uh...I suppose that's fine. Is this about the wings? 6. Oh, it's okay...I don't have to be your favorite Mane Six pony or anything. Just as long as you appreciate my character, I'm happy.
  6. I'm very impressed with Twilight so far; she's off to a better start this year than last. Would Applejack be doing better against Rarity or is that just wishful thinking? My theory is that A.J., being as different from Rares as she is, would provide a greater contrast in the minds of the voters and possibly get more support because of that. Whereas Coloratura is a celebrity with a heart of gold, and Rarity is a wannabe-celebrity fashion designer with a heart of gold. ...Sorry Rarity, but it's true. xD
  7. Guys, I have some...surprising news. Twilight vs. Lyra Opens Dimensional Rift It was supposed to be just another game. An important matchup in the Divisional round, certainly; the rubber match between rivals who had met twice earlier, of course. What it became was something else again. Just outside Twilight Sparkle's new palace, a throng of spectators from Ponyville and beyond witnessed a thrilling chase. Twilight took off and Lyra matched her pace, staying just a few votes behind throughout the first half. Seeing that things were too close for comfort, the princess doubled her efforts after halftime and jumped out to a double-digit lead--but once again Lyra fought back. Twilight saw her momentum stall completely as nightmares of 2013 nearly came back to haunt her again. But the timer ran out, and she held on to win the game by just nine votes. The contest itself was the closest the Princess of Friendship and the indomitable underpony had ever fought. An overjoyed Twilight spouted fireworks from her horn. Before the postgame interviews could begin, a blinding flash suddenly enveloped the courtyard. A consolation prize? Lyra looks as dumbstruck as everypony else. It was discovered that Lyra, in anticipation of winning and revisiting the human world, had started up the dimension-hopping machine Twilight helped her design three years earlier. When Twilight's fireworks clashed with the magical energies being given off by the machine, two impossible things simultaneously occurred. One was Lyra transforming into an alicorn. The other... "...Where am I? And where are my wings?" Upon examining the scene, Princess Celestia determined that Twilight Sparkle had been stranded in another dimension. Tournament officials have not stated what they plan to do about this, but one thing is for certain: Twilight's EFC Championship rematch with Princess Luna is going to be very interesting. Unicorn Twilight, 52-43 Recaps of our other three games will be up soon.
  8. Poor Rainbow Dash. She just can't get a break in the MAPT. =_=

  9. 2013 Fluttershy = 2015 Carolina Panthers. 2015 Rarity = any Super Bowl-winning Patriots team since 2003. 2016 Coloratura = 1996 Jacksonville Jaguars. Or even better if she wins the PFC Championship. What team WOULD she be comparable to if she defeated Rarity?
  10. I watched WrestleMania XXX with a friend just last week...still a great show that I'll be proud to keep in my collection. So far, though, nothing has happened to interest me in Mania XXXII. I'm just not sold on Roman Reigns or Dean Ambrose as main eventers, much less possible champions. I'm indifferent to Triple H at this point. Brock Lesnar is my favorite wrestler but he's going to lose at Fastlane and be stuck in a match with Bray Wyatt, who ceased to be interesting after losing his feud with Cena. There is nothing in the works for this PPV that I would pay money to see.
  11. Well old buddy, we've got AJ & Coloratura deadlocked, Lyra and Celestia trying to upset Twilight and Rarity, and Dash struggling vs. Luna. Voting ends Tuesday night at 7! xD https://mlpforums.com/topic/145433-poll-most-attractive-pony-tournament-2016-divisional-round-is-on/page-10

  12. I can't believe how close the AJ/Coloratura game still is! They've been deadlocked since the very beginning. I've never seen that before. Lyra continues to challenge Twilight Sparkle like no other background pony, but the main character seems to have the edge. Rarity finally has a comfortable lead on Celestia and Rainbow Dash has done better than I thought, but she's always been cursed with extremely tough competition (first Lyra, then Twilight, now Luna in 2016) right out of the gate.
  13. You made the right decision. Never bet against the league's #1 defense. Decent game, if a bit sloppy with few offensive highlights. The Denver defense put on another great performance. I still think their team was lucky to get here, but they made the most of the opportunity. And the commercials were actually okay this year, overall. Standouts were the Toyota Prius car chase and the Heinz one with all the wiener dogs. Very cute.
  14. Impressions from the second half: * DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS. 10 out of 12 times now, when a team with the NFL's #1 defense makes it to the Super Bowl, they have won it. * Turnovers everywhere. However, Denver was able to recover from theirs and ride the momentum of their defense all the way to the end. Carolina's cost them any chance at a win. * I felt that if Denver couldn't score an offensive touchdown, they would lose the game. Carolina still could have caught fire and gone downfield for a TD to go up 17-16. When Cam was stripped of the ball and Anderson ran it in for Denver, I finally relaxed. It was over. * What a way for Peyton Manning to go out, if he does choose to retire. The guy still takes a lot of flak just for not winning more Super Bowls or not being as good as Tom Brady, or whatever. But he's one of the greatest QBs to ever play the game and he deserves this moment. * Cam Newton was seriously humbled tonight, and he'll be better for it. Next time we see him here, he'll be a wiser and more composed player.
  15. Impressions from the first half: * Denver's defense is REALLY good. They've lived up to the hype. * Denver's offense is not really good. They're blowing their opportunities and should be up by a lot more than 6. * Cam Newton is dog-tired, showing signs of nerves, but his tremendous talent shows through in flashes. * Talib should be ashamed of himself. You're in a Super Bowl, your team is ahead on the scoreboard...calm down. Play defense in a manner that you and your children can be proud of when you look back on this 40 years later. * I have never been less interested in a halftime show in my life. Coldplay at a Super Bowl? That's why I'm up here in my room posting instead of watching the show downstairs. xD ("At least it's not Bieber," my mom said.) Actually I don't like any of the four artists they've got here. Think I'll listen to some Fats Domino instead!
  16. I'm shocked no one has mentioned this yet, but...I gotta go with "E.T." for the Atari 2600. I have personally played it, on an actual Atari 2600 machine with an original Atari controller and my own cartridge copy of the game. (They're not hard to find, despite the fact that millions of them were destroyed in a New Mexico landfill years ago.) It is as repetitive, and boring, and just plain BAD, as everyone says it was. Many Atari games are very repetitive by today's standards. However, they were also fun to play. E.T. is not fun to play, which makes the drudgery far more painful. E.T. is walking across a field. There are holes in the field. E.T. will fall into these holes one by one to see if anything is at the bottom. Your job is to levitate him out of the holes in an extremely slow and frustrating manner, until you run out of holes. That is the entire game. It killed gaming in the Western world for 4-5 years.

  17. Do you have a singer you've always liked, for reasons you can't quite put your finger on, and whom you've never met another fan of (at least in person)? A singers who is no longer relevant in pop culture, or is just on the edge of relevance, or possibly never will be relevant but you still like them? Well, talk about 'em in this thread! The singer I like that no one else does is Stacey Q, an 80s (VERY 80s) dance/pop/techno artist best known for her 1986 hit Two of Hearts. When I was a kid, I ordered a cassette tape off a cereal box and it had that song on it. I listened to it over and over and probably drove my parents crazy. That's how I discovered Stacey Q. Been a fan ever since and I've listened to all of Stacey's stuff now (she's released five albums and still performs in California). "He Doesn't Understand" is my favorite pop song ever, and I might be the only person who even remembers it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD-YYTwWGcE
  18. I'm glad you like it DQ, though I never managed the same enthusiasm as others for these modern, smirking, weird-for-weirdness' sake commercials: Old Spice, Geico, DirecTV and the like. No ad like this has ever gotten one sale out of me. xD
  19. How bad will the commercials be? Or will they be genuinely good and funny for the first time in................gosh, how long HAS it been since they were really funny? I may end up watching, more for culinary reasons than anything else. People in the house are making food, you see.
  20. I believe it is "horde." (EDIT: NVM, you fixed it in the next post.) The horde of Rarity voters have a hoard of Rarity pictures to spread Rarity-ism, which they never get bored of spreading throughout the board. No pictures wars yet in this tournament, surprisingly...although I think you guys had better start one before it's too late, 'cause Celestia does need help.
  21. I once knew another member named CrystalRose. Does that mean I've been around here too long? Probably. Welcome to Poniverse and MLP Forums, new CrystalRose!
  22. Sorry, this week has been so hectic I forgot to reply to your last message. Yes, Sandy travels alone and is not particularly close to anyone, so she has plenty to learn about friendship. ^^

  23. Nice avatar! Another pony tournament begins...well really it's been going on a while xD http://mlpforums.com/topic/145433-poll-most-attractive-pony-tournament-2016-divisional-round-is-on

  24. Tough to say...if there was a Chinese place around here that delivered I would eat a lot more of it, but at the moment it's a tie between burgers and pizza.
