Akemi Homura 7,680 January 18, 2013 Author Share January 18, 2013 You're basing this on the show Spazzy, stop that. Go look at the art and read some fanfics, this tournament isn't limited to the canon. Finally, someone who gets it! If I hosted this tournament solely based on the show, the results would be completely different. Too bad Rarity is portrayed like a vain/shallow character in most fanfics, though. That's silly and damaging to her rep. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad most of the good stuff said about Lyra in fan-fics and such is probably not true, since it ain't canon. Honest to god.......and I think I have to agree on that Rarity thing. I'm still surprised as to how she's losing to Flutters. Edited January 18, 2013 by spas-ticShotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fanfic and it's up to the author on how they decide to interpret her character. That's why Rarity gets so much heat for being "shallow" because avid fanfic readers take the fanon aspects to heart moreso than the show. Can't cross that line.

The stuff in fanfics ain't true unless it's canon, simple as that. Lyra could actually be an asshole and we don't know it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyra could actually be an asshole and we don't know it. Pretty much the reason why I dislike Bon Bon, but she's shown to be an asshat in the actual show as well. I don't think it's wise to assume a background character is immediately an asshole just because there's no information on them, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Old Head 4,816 January 18, 2013 Share January 18, 2013 (edited) Jesus Christ, people. Sometimes, I think this vote is rigged . Like, it's the same with Flutters vs. Rarity. I'm surprised someone as sexy as Rares is being beaten' by Flutters. Anyways, more AJ pics to help the cause. That second picture was absolutely mind-blowing. That must be the best fan art of any Mane 6 pony I've ever seen. Wow. It's incredible to see all this spirited pride. I love this thread.

TailsIsNotAlone 3,695 January 18, 2013 Share January 18, 2013 (edited) Personally I'm still giving Bon Bon a chance. I consider Merriwether's unpleasant depictions of life in Ponyville canon in the loosest sense of the word. And I wouldn't tick off a pony who can clone herself if I were you, AJ fans. Because if you win here, you just might have to face an even tougher opponent next round... Sir Heartsy von Lyrason.

spas-ticShotty 3,584 January 18, 2013 Share January 18, 2013 Another fucking vote for Lyra?! Jesus, people,what the hell? You're not voting for this? I seriously hope the extra week that's ahead will mean a turnaround in the votes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay honestly, I can understanfd being a little upset but your really being a bit of an asshole about this whole thing and quite frankly... you're definitely not portraying AJ all that well I think you need to calm down a bit before you really lose it, You're starting to scare me a bit.... 10 Thank you Nas for the sig :3 #HugWoona Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely agree, can you guys please be quiet about Lyra? Just accept the reasons that people find Lyra attractive and continue rooting for your own. Don't put other ponies down, that's not good spirit at all. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spas-ticShotty 3,584 January 18, 2013 Share January 18, 2013 This......*sigh*, I still think AJ was supposed to go against Vinyl. It shows on the brackets that AJ and Vinyl were supposed to go against each other, yet it got switched around and AJ had to go against Lyra. Honestly, I'm pissed off at a lot of you. I don't think Lyra is anywhere as attractive as AJ..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Alfonzo said earlier, the NFL playoff rules state that the 6th seed (Lyra) goes up against the 1st seed (AJ). We would only be seeing AJ/Vinyl if Rainbow had won and gone on to face Twilight. 3 "Human beings fascinate me Being just the way they are..."

So basically, Lyra ruined everything. Somehow, she won over Dash, which has doomed AJ. I'm still not sure why Lyra is winning over AJ. It really baffles me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose I can see what people see in her but in both of the contests I never once voted for her. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose I can see what people see in her but in both of the contests I never once voted for her. Now with RD vs. Lyra, I could see why she won, just, I'm not happy about that. Now with AJ vs. Lyra, it's very hard to see. I think AJ is way more attractive than Lyra, and I think more people should agree with me here. This is one of the very few times I'm ever gonna say this but, I don't think Lyra deserves to win at all. I don't like that phrase, but honestly, when a girl I love so much like AJ is losing to a BG pony like Lyra, it hurts me. I wish I wasn't so competitive with this kind of stuff, but, I just am. Ever since birth, and probably always will be. Actually, look at this. 1. w-Applejack (78 votes) - Won EFC South 2. z-Twilight Sparkle (74 votes) - Won EFC East 3. y-Rainbow Dash (68 votes) - Won EFC North 4. y-Vinyl Scratch (52 votes) - Won EFC West 5. x-Trixie (42 votes) 6. x-Lyra Heartstrings (24 votes - won tie-breaker vs. Cheerilee.) How come Lyra is beating AJ? Lyra only had 24 votes and just BARELY won in a tiebreaker while AJ had the most votes of any pony, at 78. I mean, what the fuck?

WildCard 1,037 January 18, 2013 Share January 18, 2013 I voted for AJ, Twi, Rarity and Octavia!C'MON guys Rarity and AJ must win these rounds! Lyra is cute, but AJ can't be beaten by a background pony. She has best voice, a hat and freckles Also one does not simply vote against Rarity. She is beauty ponyfied, with an awesome color scheme, a fabulous mane and the prettiest eyes 3 OC was made by Princess Ariona.

I guess everyone suddenly realized how attractive Lyra was when placed head-to-head against RD. I've said it multiple times in this thread but I personally didn't pay attention much to Lyra until participating in this poll. After looking into who Lyra was and really evaluating her attractiveness, I just became attached. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a whole new ballgame when head-to-head matchups arrive. Granted, AJ turned out to be in a horribly weak division so her vote numbers may be inflated. Lyra was put into a division with Twilight Sparkle and you know how deadly she is. Head-to-head games are everything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep it up Spitfire! I think that matchup has been tight all the way, though Octavia did nurse an 8 vote lead at one point. PFC is arguably the tougher conference. Have some pretty 'Tavi in the meantime. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archi the Atmomancer 564 January 18, 2013 Share January 18, 2013 Damn it Lyra fans! I love her too but come on. Sit down, shut your mouths, select Applejack and click Vote. It'll save us a lot of trouble in the long run. 3 "Humanity is the end; knowledge is the means; I will not rest until there are no more secrets to be discovered; I will not rest until there are no more ways to improve; I will not rest until there are no more problems to be solved; I will wield no weapon but my wits and intellect; With these weapons I will battle ignorance until the light of knowledge shines bright; When the light of knowledge shines upon us all, then I shall rest, and not before." - Atmomancer Creed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the PFC, it's quite possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
