FancyPhoenix 197 February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 (edited) I have a good feeling abot this. Only half an hour more to go /)^3^(\ With this, Lyra will prove once and for all that the background ponies should never be underestimated. Keep on trotting, girl!

Antismurf9001 1,271 February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 Well, it seems that Lyra has undeniably won. Attached is my overly dramatic interpretation of the events. (It's in a document because there's more images than the site will allow me to post) (WARNING: what is contained in the attachment below is obnoxiously long and has a very OOC Fluttershy) Fluttershy v Lyra.doc 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!

Akemi Homura 7,680 February 9, 2013 Author Share February 9, 2013 That's game. Lyra is the most attractive pony of 2013. What a ride it's been for her, knocking off Cheerilee in the playoff tie-breaker and then pulling off a string of very special upsets all against the Mane Six! Congrats Lyra fans, you proved to be one hell of a fanbase. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootalove 10,689 February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 Well, Lyra won the tournament! I guess the Lyra fans are now at peace since their favorite background pony won the tournament. Great job Lyra and Lyra's fans. 2 Credit: Moony © Forum FAQ Forum Rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightning Fluttershy 1,844 February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 This is disappointing. I guess.... I should say..... g.... g.... good.... good game.... my adorable Fluttershy made it this far I suppose so... yea... yaaay. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Sugar Sprinkles~ 638 February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 I know that im a girl, but I would choose Rarity. Even though she is a cartoonic Pony, I find her gorgeous. her hair and her eyes and even her coat! Oh Rarity 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutemutt 773 February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 Well, this was really a great tournament. It's probably the thread that I've payed the most attention to ever since I joined the forums. I knew you could do it Lyra. From just a humble background pony to being the crowned champion of the most attractive pony tournament; that's quite a feat. Big thanks to Alfonzo for hosting to tourny and everyone that participated. Without you guys, there wouldn't have been a tournament. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moog the Kvlt 1,460 February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 Lyra won....she's not my favorite But hey at least we had an underdog come out And show us all that you don't need a back story To be loved by the fandom 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duidamasterXD 9,627 February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 Well, it's been a bumpy ride. Congratulations to Lyra once again. While I haven't agreed with the results of this (or pretty much any other) match up it's still been fun to watch. Interestingly enough, while wading through the million pages, pictures and dissertations on the appeal of all of these characters I realized something; I wasn't swayed for a second . Dashie is still easily most attractive pony, both in design and in personality and I would like to thank all of you for helping me prove that to myself. Thanks for setting this up Alfonzo! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TailsIsNotAlone 3,695 February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 (edited) Lyra walks on! And never was the song more fitting. This is without a doubt my proudest moment on the forums.

MeowLord Noraasha 135 February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 So it came to this... Quite surprising I must say. I would find at least 20 ponies I find more attractive than Lyra, but nevertheless: I SALUTE YOU LYRA, AND YOU LYRA FANS!

Again, thank you for your support, and party at Sugarcube Corner, everyones invited.

NavelColt 22,879 February 10, 2013 Share February 10, 2013 *Yawn*. So, can I unpin this now? Seriously though, though the winner isn't someone I particularly care for or understand, from a moderation point of view, this was one hell of a success, forum-event wise. Fifty-three pages, 1059 posts+ and 23, 689+ views is no small feat for a spontaneous event started by a member. I hope to have more of these things in the future :3 Maybe you can come up with other kinds of contest ideas as well, just as big, smaller or perhaps even bigger than this one in the future, Alfonzo. Woot woot, everypony~ I'll be unpinning this now. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeoPrism 25 February 10, 2013 Share February 10, 2013 So that's it? A minty background pony? I'd never expected that. But you know what, I got no problem with it at all. Leading by 25 votes is a respectable number, but even if she'd won by hunderets of votes I wouldn't mind. Who am I to tell other what they should like? So congratulations to all those Lyra-Fans - be proud! I'm going to listen to this song right now now in honour of her victory: 1 "I don't have ships, I have an armada!" ~ unknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twiliscael 3,960 February 10, 2013 Share February 10, 2013 Lyra won? Hahaha. In all seriousness, I'd be lying if I said that this contest didn't annoy me to no end, but in the end it's just a stupid contest for fun. Or at least I like to tell myself that. 1 I tend to take the high road, get stoned, and fly low . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radiance64 7,053 February 10, 2013 Share February 10, 2013 Hm, so Lyra won huh? Nothing left to do but give my very reluctant congratulations I guess... But seriously, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't dissapointed in this outcome. Seeing all my picks knocked out in the ending rounds was very disheartening to me as much as I tried to perservere, I realy just don't like this at all. Sorry if that was harsh but I'm just being honest. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightning Dasher 149 February 12, 2013 Share February 12, 2013 (edited) Congratulations to Lyra and her followers, and Fluttershy is a good sport about it too. No matter how hard I tried to sway votes against her, because it seemed like she was put up against ALL of my favourites, one after another practically... It was a deserving victory. I'm just glad to say that I didn't give up without a fight. Edited February 12, 2013 by Lightning Dasher 1 Ponies make it impossible to sleep.
