TailsIsNotAlone 3,695 January 14, 2013 Share January 14, 2013 (edited) I don't blame people for being surprised, but when you really think about it, what does Rainbow Dash have in attractiveness that Lyra doesn't? Wings? Cuteness? Badassery? Shipping? Personality? There's a fan for that. Edited January 14, 2013 by TailsAlone 2 "Human beings fascinate me Being just the way they are..."

Well I wasn't going to say anything, but since you asked... As for personality? I wasn't particularly won over by the personality expressed in Lyra's one line of dialogue. I find Dashie's personality much more interesting and attractive P.S You should post a few of those 50 Rainbow Dash pictures you shared in the most attractive pony thread a few weeks ago.

I find Dashie's personality much more interesting and attractive Then why even have the tournament in the first place? We might as well forfeit all of our spots to the Mane 6. There's also this whole thing about Spitfire being one of the top seeds. Lyra is beating Rainbow Dash, and Octavia is tied with Pinkie Pie. If their personality isn't fleshed out, are we just supposed to just ignore them then? You don't have to be won over by the personality expressed in Lyra's one line of dialogue. In fact if you were, then you're a real die-hard Lyra fan. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightning Dasher 149 January 14, 2013 Share January 14, 2013 (edited) As much as Lyra has her own appeal, she's got more of the girl next door look compared to Rainbow Dash's punk rock sexiness. She's made it to a respectable standing and has earned a lot of votes, I just think that RD is next-round worthy. Then again, once AJ is in the picture, they will all fall to her, lol. And I think Flipturn has all but guaranteed Pinkie Pie's victory with those pictures. Edited January 14, 2013 by Lightning Dasher 1 Ponies make it impossible to sleep.

Kamil 315 January 14, 2013 Share January 14, 2013 I find it interesting how three of the competitions are within a couple percent, with one in a flat-out tie, but then you have Rarity vs. Cloud Chaser. I mean, I don't disagree because Rarity is fabulous, but there's nothing WRONG with Cloud Chaser. I mean, she must have some kind of fanbase to get this far... 2 This space intentionally left blank.

I mean, I don't disagree because Rarity is fabulous, but there's nothing WRONG with Cloud Chaser. I mean, she must have some kind of fanbase to get this far... Cloudchaser has some support, particularly among Dash/Spitfire fans who are most inclined to appreciate cute pegasi. But compared to them she kind of fades away, and against Rarity whose visual appeal is almost uncontested, she's had a rough go of it. I think CC is also a less explored background pony than Lyra or Octavia, which is kind of a shame. She could have some great adventures with Flitter.

spas-ticShotty 3,584 January 14, 2013 Share January 14, 2013 Dayum, this competition is stiff as fuck . The only competition I see that isn't tied is Cloud Chaser vs. Rarity (Poor Chaser.

She's so determined that she's sent everypony a copy of herself! How lovely and kind of her! Now, let's all vote for the truly most attractive (and best) pony, our lovely ball of cuteness Pinkie Pie!

Lightning Dasher 149 January 14, 2013 Share January 14, 2013 Flipturn has my vote for Pinkie Pie's Minister of Propaganda. Resistance is futile. Embrace the Pink Menace. If it were any other pony, Octavia might have had my vote. Top 5 Pony. 2 Ponies make it impossible to sleep. "My stomach was making the rumblings, that only hands would satisfy."

Mutemutt 773 January 14, 2013 Share January 14, 2013 (edited) I see Lyra is still winning. I love it! My smile couldn't possibly get any wider. It's funny, before this tournament, I never really paid much attention to Lyra. Now I find myself becoming more and more attached to her; if it comes down to it I may pick Lyra over Octavia. I gotta say this suspense is killing me. Lyra might be leading now but she is still within striking distance and there's plenty of time left.

TailsIsNotAlone 3,695 January 15, 2013 Share January 15, 2013 (edited) Your Pinkie propoganda cannot sway me Flipturn! ...Because I already voted for her. It wasn't easy, but it's not just Pinkie's attitude that makes her the best party pony. She's also remarkably easy on the eyes. Mind you, if you had voted for Lyra I would be quite a bit more vocal about this! *evil laugh* Although it's not like I'm deep into this. You know, it's not like I believe Lyra has a date with destiny, or that I'm determined to help create a moment that no one in this tournament will ever forget. Nope... This is it, everyone. Rainbow will be in, and win, a dozen other polls. But this, right here, is the best shot Lyra will ever have. Make it happen.

duidamasterXD 9,627 January 15, 2013 Share January 15, 2013 Yeesh, this is turning into a real nailbiter.

Lightning Dasher 149 January 15, 2013 Share January 15, 2013 Don't make me bring out the big guns now for Pinkie Pie. She knows how to use the Twilight Cannon. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OR5MVOB6KL0&feature=share&list=PL0124EA779C6BF880 Lyra is the metaphorical wall Rainbow Dash is running into right now. There's one good thing I can say about Lyra, but it doesn't sway my vote otherwise. Otherwise, the only reason I bring this up is because even if Rainbow Dash wins, she has no chance against Pinkie Pie. Because Rarity is going to get stomped by her as well since Octavia is even making it as close as it is right now, and Octavia wins over Rarity as far as i'm concerned in this. Last but not least... EVERYPONY LOVES RAINBOW DASH. No underdogs coming out on top this time around, or should I say "underpony" >.> 1 Ponies make it impossible to sleep.

Marcato 2,143 January 15, 2013 Share January 15, 2013 I'm a background pony fanatic, I say all background ponies win. Except Vinyle. Go Octavia and Lyra all the way!

Moon Rat 4,772 January 15, 2013 Share January 15, 2013 *snip* Honestly, I find Pinkie Pie to be cute but she's not really all that attractive to me.

Lightning Dasher 149 January 15, 2013 Share January 15, 2013 (edited) Comparing Octavia to Pinkie Pie is like comparing a brunette to a red head. It just comes down to preference even if both are equally attractive. Considering they are two of the most attractive ponies in the entire show, it just comes down to whether you like awesome PINK ponies with amazing style or grey, black haired ponies who have to use a bow tie as a gimmick and play the stand-up bass >.> GREY. BLACK. As in, NOT PINK. Pinkie has a winning smile to boot. I would hate to see her sad face. WARNING: SAD FACE Edited January 15, 2013 by Lightning Dasher 1 Ponies make it impossible to sleep.
