Kamil 315 January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 Come on Rarity, you can come back from this... It's only 8 votes, the closest race out of a round that's been all about close races... You've still got more than a day, surely your votes are simply "fashionably late," right? ... Right? 9 This space intentionally left blank.

Concord 1,982 January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 Hello! Considering it most likely seems that lyra is going to win. I would now really want to see Rarity win aswell Just look at her! How could you not vote for her? 5 Thank you MatrixChicken for the Signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moog the Kvlt 1,460 January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 Well....just checking back on this whole tournament thing It seems as if I picked all of the ones that are in the lead..... All except for Vinyl hahahhaha, she's doomed Oh well I guess her cute red eyes seem to be an acquired taste And Rarity is behind as well Meh at least Octavia and Lyra are ahead 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antismurf9001 1,271 January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 Wait... Wait! WAIT! I just looked at the bracket and if both Fluttershy and Octavia win this round then... Oh dear. They're going to have to go against each other. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHv9acm3fF0 But... but... how can you make me choose! This tournament is cruel and heartless. 3 "Ceterum censeo background ponies delendas esse" - Stellafera Credit for the Octavia vector goes to the awesome Harmonic Revelations Credit for the creation of my avatar and signature goes to the amazing Wubsie Once again, thanks!

Scootalove 10,689 January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 (edited) Can't believe Lyra is becoming the underdog against Applejack. Usually some people thought, AJ would be beating Lyra. I thought the same, but I guess momentum can change on a dime. http://images6.fanpop.com/image/photos/32500000/Lyra-is-so-random-lyra-heartstrings-32567604-1280-720.png Run,Lyra,Run! Run to victory!

Lightning Fluttershy 1,844 January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 (edited) Flutteshy in the lead by 10 votes! Hell yeah! Please play the following song in response to her utter victory over Rarity. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVi8bJFIac8 Now.... time to dance! Sorry Rarity. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5QGkOGZubQ Now Fluttershy shall grace us with her presence in celebration of this!

TailsIsNotAlone 3,695 January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 (edited) Sigh. Rarity never beats Fluttershy. It's a shame because Rarity appeals to me on so many more levels. She deserves a lot more credit than we give her. Whereas I think Shy could do with a little less. She's a wonderful character, don't get me wrong, but when I have to look mainly at her appearance...on a show that does a great job of not trying too hard to make the characters cute, I think they came very close with Shy. She's too much of a good thing. There are many ponies I would have voted for over her in this tournament, just to be quite honest with you. Don't make me choose Rarity as my next personal quest, people. LOL. Just kidding, it doesn't work like that. But I feel for her all the same. No complaints about Lyra and Octavia, though--they're exactly where I hoped they would be. But again, act like it's a tie. The Lyra fans will not be resting on their laurels. If Twilight is the next opponent, we can't afford to. Edited January 22, 2013 by TailsIsNotAlone 2 "Human beings fascinate me Being just the way they are..."

If Twilight is the next opponent, we can't afford to. No way Twilight loses to Vinyl now, with one day remaining :3 I look forward to seeing the Lyra-Twilight matchup, however. That said, Fluttershy's what you would call versatile in regards to her beauty. It's underrated much like Pinkie Pie's but it's more noticeable than Pinkie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lateon 589 January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 Is it weird that I'm going to have a VERY difficult time choosing between Lyra and Twilight and Octavia and Fluttershy whoever her opponent is? The choices so far have been easy for me, save for Octavia and Spitfire, until I reconsidered the fanon half of things in Octavia's favor. Coming up though, I might just have to start abstaining from certain match ups altogether. Alfonzo, is it possible to add a "These two are tied" option in the upcoming bouts for people who don't want to choose between the two, yet still want to participate? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiance64 7,053 January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 Man, Rarity is pretty far behind... http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/146/3/6/loop__sad_rarity_by_mattyhex-d4zgnrp.svg As painful as it may be for me to admit, I don't really see her winning at this point. I'm not too happy about it, but losing to Fluttershy is better than nothing really, but I don't think she should win overall personally. But who knows, there's still a bit of time left, maybe Rarity will pull ahead yet- I can only hope. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TailsIsNotAlone 3,695 January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 This tournament keeps getting hotter. I think the turnout for the first round was just over 100 people. 148 people voted in the previous round, and now we're on our way to 200. Quite an awesome idea you stumbled on here, Alfonzo. 1 "Human beings fascinate me Being just the way they are..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun fact: I originally thought of making a tournament that allowed users to vote for best Show Discussion posters based on what they knew of them but then I got this much better idea of doing it with ponies and how they're looked at Fluttershy and Octavia now have massive leads over their opponents. Lyra Heartstrings is also breaking away from the top seeded Applejack! A tale of low seeds beating out the top-ranked ponies it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I'm rather tired of some Lyra fans boasting. I mean, it's okay to feel happy about her beating both Rainbow Dash and Applejack, but getting in our face ain't nice. :VVV 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underestimating the competition is unwise. Just because they limped into the playoffs doesn't mean they can't compete and get some damn good fan support. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spazzy was just a lot more vocal about it but the majority of your lot claimed automatic victory just because Applejack got the highest amount of votes in the preliminary stages lol. Can't do that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champion RD92 8,658 January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 Spitfire, Rarity and Rainbow Dash are the most attractive ponies by far. You are all crazy for not voting for them. CRAZY!!!!!!! CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

concertoldham 140 January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 Rarity is the most beautiful pony She is best pony obviously.

Here ya go: http://www.youtube.com/user/concertoldham Rarity is best pony because she is refined, poised, strong and genuine all wrapped up in a beautiful package.

Ron J 276 January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 I am highly disappointed in the lack of votes for Vinyl and Applejack. As a matter of fact, all the ones I voted for are losing. Did I curse this vote with my unholy presence? I will sit in the corner and think about what I have done. 4 "Feld0 spelled backwards is 'illuminati'" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you not read the votes? Fluttershy's got a massive lead on her and this round ends tomorrow at 7 PM EST sharp. She has a long way to recover. What'dya mean, "our lot?" I don't recall saying anything about claiming automatic victory, either. Nor did Spazzy. I knew she was against a weak division. Your lot, as in "your fanbase". For the record, all of your posts claimed automatic victory because they can be worded in different ways. You can be polite about it as you can, but the message remains and that clearly rattled TailsAlone and his boys 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
