PONIES.

SEVEN EPISODES OF PONY. AND COUNTING.
Yes, everypony. You can has Season 2. (http://www.nickandmore.com/2011/08/22/the-hub-updates-my-little-pony-family-game-night-haunting-hour-2nd-seasons-game-of-life-scrabble-showdown-premieres/)
they released new pony figures....my sister has one, so now she has 7 ponies.
I nearly bought a Rainbow Dash figure at Wal-Mart the other day.
DON'T JUDGE ME.
i wouldn't. my sister has all 6 of them (plus the new one), and so does her friend jon.
and he's even better at styling pony hair than we are. :\
My sister has a fairly large collection of ponies, although a majority of that collection are the ones like what she grew up with
i found an MLP plushie from 04' on this anime collectibles site. i'm tempted to buy it, it looks kinda cute.
I suggested to my initiators that we spex the first-years by putting them all in MLP:FIM gear. She liked the idea. -w-
get pics. GET THEEEEMMMMM
I shall see what can be procured.
my sister tells me that i will be getting a nitemare moon figure for christmas. -w-
BREAKING NEWS
DEMON OVERLORD ASTONISHED - PONY S2 STARTS TOMORROW!?
OH SHIT! PONY MARATHON!
And remember - eternal chaos comes with chocolate rain. :3
So, my dad and brother reacted to my telling them about MLP:FiM and Bronyism with shouts of "NO WAY" and "YOU LIE!" It literally took me ten minutes to convince them that college-age (and above) men (and women) watch and enjoy MLP. -w-;;
if they want proof, have them meet my sister's friend jon. :\
that said, it would appear that my sister has procured the other new pony figurine.
8/8 PONIES AQUIRED
Do they have any normally colored Princess Celestia figures? Do they even have a Luna figure?
Today is yet another pony day. DISCORD RETURNS! :]
@stew: they have a big celestia figure, but appearantly the voice isn't the same as in the series.
as far as i know, they have no luna figure. i heard a rumor that they're going to come out with one around christmas, but idk the validity of that claim.
of course, one could always use this...... (http://www.hasbro.com/shop/details.cfm?guid=93C1E395-6D40-1014-8BF0-9EFBF894F9D4)

THIS THING
FUCKING READ IT
FUCKING NOW!
Hm, so that's where the Luna and microwaves thing they mention in The Vinyl Scratch Tapes came from.
Related: Not sure if I want a My Little Pony capable of inventing microwaves and aircraft.
Quote from: Progress"Ah... GO TEAM!" Luna cheered along with her. "PERFORM WELL! WATCH YOUR DEFENSE! CONTINUE TO MAINTAIN YOUR ABOVE AVERAGE SCORING PERCENTAGE!"
Luna=Equine GLaDoS. And loving it. <3
Which instantly made me think of (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94j1PvNzMwU) these moments from Star Trek. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYVSkOh3ZBM)

enjoy~
Just watched s1 episodes 1 and 2... hnnng.... >W>
RP Has been joined. I am so starved on RP right now...
sis has noticed, and your pony is in for a fight after telepathically communicating with Shattered Bell. just letting you know. :3
I should get on that. Even though it seems a little bit full at the moment.
QuoteAbruptly two ponies galloped up. One was a brown colt in a pinstripe suit with a wild mane of hair, and the other was a gray Pegasus with a blonde mane and walleyes. The latter had a mail satchel.
Hurry Doctor! The migration's starting!
art thou really going to be a doctor pony? really??
Huh? No, that's a line from Progress. The Doctor and Derpy had needed Luna's abacus for.... something. I don't think I'll join, since they're that full.
As for that: Yes, I'll be your neighbor.
I'm up to episode 6 .w.
...already I have a crazy theory involving Equestria being a kingdom in the Adventure Time universe. I mean, it'd fit right in, what with the weird talking animals, princesses and magic...
Somebody must do a fanfic involving Finn and Jake discovering the Pony Kingdom. @__@
.....would that make rainicorn an exile?
WMG: Lady Rainicorn is an avatar of Princess Celestia
.....then what does that make rainicorn's parents? queen lauren and king craig?
WMG: The rainicorns share a common ancestor with the Ponies (and unicorns and pegasi...) but left/got separated from Equestria at some point. Thus their distinctive appearance, culture and language.
Quote from: stewartsage on October 01, 2011, 03:19:23 AM
WMG: Lady Rainicorn is an avatar of Princess Celestia
Though this is a pretty good theory too. (Cestia = rainbow mane and tail. Rainicorn = rainbow body. COINCIDENCE? I think not!)
Saturday, but no ponies. I FEEL SO EMPTY~ ;o;
so find something pony-related to do? :\
I found that copious amounts of pony ficcery sufficed. <3

Relevant to this thread? I'm going to draw some ponyfied OS-tans. .____.;
FINALLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
2k-tan and/or OS9-tan...as ponies? You have my attention
Which, this past weekend, I watched my 3rd episode of the series. I still feel it's not bad of a show, but nothing worth going crazy over
(muttering to myself) I won't become a brony, I won't become a brony, I won't become a brony...
You won't last long, boi, just give in already -w-

FUCKING READ THIS SHIT
WMG: Bronyism is a plot by hasbro and/or world leaders to make the warlike human species see the magic and wonder of friendship and the value of working together. The last non-Bronies will be converted to the movement on December 21, 2012; with war, hatred and intolerance obliterated, humanity will ascend to a higher state of existance and society will begin anew.
I drew some ponies last night. .__.
POST. NOW.
Counter WMG: Bronyism is a virus created by Hasbro to enslave the world, or to be more precise, they're using an artifact to make the show hypnotic. It's a genius plan, I must admit...but not one someone like me will fall for easily.
Yes, I'm dragging Warehouse 13 into the argument
I've watched it at least 3 times, and while I admit it's not bad, I fail to truly see why everybody is going crazy over it
eventually, there will be sculptures involving blank ponies.
(and maybe ponies of you all >w> )

I have the house to myself until 1PM (When I have to go to work), and the Hub is running a marathon of MLP...although I'm coming in a bit late (Tail end of the S1 finale, then the two S2 episodes). But, ponies
Ponies came up in convo today with dad and bro (again), I admitted I was watching now. The general reaction was SHOCK and DISBELIEF.
@bella: that's the usual reaction for people our age. :\
also, OMG IT'S A XI WANG GET THE CAR
So you ponies think you can handle Rainbow Dash, eh?
QuoteRainbow Dash landed softly next to Rainbow Dash and Rainbow Dash.
{LATER}
Rainbow Dash, Rainbow Dash, and Rainbow Dash watched Rainbow Dash from a distance. Dash and Dash still hadn't gotten a clear explanation from Dash about what they needed Dash for, and any time either of them tried asking a question, they were quickly shushed. They didn't understand, and they didn't like it.
Well. HOW ABOUT 6 OR SO OF HER AT THE SAME TIME, THEN?

i'm getting sick of ponies. but there's possibilities of a pony video, or (if the budget allows) an anthro pony dollfie figure. :\
I STILL have to upload those OSCer ponies. >w>;;
http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/04/story-fallout-equestria.html
Getting sudden urge to kick some wastelander ass right now.
i hope os-tan collections doesn't turn into pony collections.....
Well, it hasn't turn into Touhou Collections yet. So we just have to wait it out I suppose.
Someday this site will become OStouhony Collections.
not sure if i like that. :\
Our banners will feature Reimu riding on a Ponyized version of Windows 3.1-tan.
Alternatively: Ponyized Reimu with Windows 3.1-tan on her back.
alternately: rotating banners featuring the windows, mac, and linux houses, with links on-site to websites devoted to MLP and Touhou.
Aww, you're no fun.
Also Monty Python goes on every banner
That said, both mentioned fandoms are quite a bit larger than for us to have any sort of power over their general directions - and any ability to manage them. Which we do have to some extent with the OS-tan fandom, seeing as we're pretty much the only english site dedicated to them. We took the vocaloid wave in stride, as did we with any other wave we've come across. The fact that we have another fandom that most of us ALSO like isn't a detriment to the site in any way, but can rather be a way of bringing new recruits in if one wishes to try it.
And just because something becomes popular doesn't mean you should stop liking it.
THAT SAID:
http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/10/story-league-of-discord.html
LEAGUE OF LEGENDS AND PONIES!??!?!?
For Nejin
Inscape should be renamed USETHISPROGRAMTOMAKEBETTERLOOKINGPONIESscape.
BETTERPONIEScape indeed. -w-
BUT!
IT NEEDS MORE FLUFF.
BRRRRRRRRRRING ON THE BEEEEAAAAAARRRRR COOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATSSSSSS
@nej: it's just my habit that the more popular something becomes, the less i like it. i'm not quite sure why, but it might have to do with the rabid, obnoxious behaviour of super fans. :\
as for waves of popularity encouraging people to come to the site, encouraging waves of pony-fans to come to the site might be detrimental in the long run, as was the encouragement of the vocaloid wave. inviting super-fans into the site that know nothing of the original content is just asking for them to take it over. first it's OS-tans riding ponies, then it's OS-tan ponies, then it's just ponies.....
there are already plenty of sites devoted to ponies. why does the world need one more?
Then I say we ban all off-topic threads.
Think about it! People who visit our site will find all these OT posts about our daily lives and interests outside OS-tans and computers and they'll think that's what this site is all about! MODS, HEED MY CALL: IF WE DON'T GET RID OF ALL OFF-TOPIC SUBFORUMS AND THREADS, THIS SITE WILL DESCEND INTO THE DEPTHS OF NON-OS-TANISH, NON-COMPUTERISH HELL!!!!! I mean, look at ALL. THE. PEOPLE. who sign up to OSC just to talk about OT stuff and never visit the OS-tan or Computer sections of our forums, we can't encourage that kind of behavior by making OT posts ourselves!
</supersarcasmmode>
no need to fricken crucify me. it just bothers me whe nej feels the need to uproot the genderflipped thread in favour of a ponyflipped one.
i'm sick of the fricken ponies.
that said, i think i'll ban myself from this thread. >:\
I wasn't crucifying you, nor have I ever crucified you, although I may've crucified the things you've said or your stances from time to time. I was merely mocking the small bit of hysteria that's popped up involving MLP's possible - yet currently entirely unobserved - impact upon OSC; and mocking the fact that nobody has ever become alarmed when other trends have popped up at OSC. (The general de-OS-tanization that the forum has undergone over the years, rampant off-topicness in every thread, Touhou and Madoka Magica, for example).
You show me an MLP fan who signs up to this site just to talk ponies or the evidence that more Bronies are being drawn here because we're posting ponies and I'll believe you; but until then, I think OSC has as good a chance of becoming Off Topic Collections, Haruhi Collections or Madoka Collections as it does MLP Collections.
madoka always gave me that vibe too. :\
Quote from: The GovernatorIf the whole shipping thing would be a Will Smith movie, Rainbow Dash would be...Will Smith!

I shouldn't even need to introduce these two...
The contrast was so high on my screen it looked like VMS-pony and a pair of hovering glasseyes. O_o
I made moar ponies~
And a Rainicorn!
i know i banned myself from this thread, but that was mainly cause ponies were being posted EVERYWHERE. since that's calmed down, i feel a bit better about posting here.
since i've been away from the rabid fandom growing here like a fungus, i've gotten more used to ponies. even watched it a couple times in the mornings before school (there's almost nothing else on).
Please don't use the "f" word Kari.
No, not fuck, fuck is delightful and I have no problem saying it provided my parent/grandparents/older adults aren't around.
I mean "fungus". The FCC should totally ban that fucking word, it's disgusting.
WHAT THE HAY DO YOU HAVE AGAINST MUSHROOMS, YOU DEVIL WOMAN!?

@bella: i'm not partial to the song "singing in the rain", and yet it gets played.
also, mushrooms are very good for you. while the texture isn't my favourite, provided they're disguised by soup i'll eat them. :\
@nej: in addition to the initial 6, 2 more were released a couple months back. me and sis were in walmart today, only to find that another 5 have been released (all 7 are either bought or hidden and will be bought by sis).

There are RAINBOW APPLES in the latest episode of MLP... I'm having difficulty believing this isn't some sort of reference to Apple Inc.

The pony backlog from being away from internet for a week...
MY BODY ISN'T FUCKING READY AT ALL ;_;
but it's not even that much. :\
Don't worry, Ponibooru is still a shitshow so you don't have a chance to catch up anyway. And most ask blogs have been on a holiday break of their own.
All them story updates on EQD?
That is a buttfuckload.
True enough, I suppose there's the conclusion of FoE and three chapters of Project Horizons to read.
Dad's making progress with coming to terms with me being a brony, we looked for blind bag ponies at walmart today and he was able to restrain his loling. Didn't find any, but he accepts that I'm on a QUEST~ to find some. -w-
blind bag ponies? is that anything like blind box figures?
Those are the little molded ones (no hair mane/tail) that look like the characters from the show (or, more accurate than the larger ones).
She's after them because I got Fluttershy and Minty today.
nice. -w-

Pfft, I was looking for them at like, 11am today! You must have picked up on my psychic energy/despair.
That said, I would have had you pick me up a couple if I'd known you were going to find some. >>
it sounds fun because you don't know who you're going to get. :3
*cough*
Right, yes, totally don't have a cheat sheet to tell me which ponies go with which numbers stamped on the bag. Though all I could remember were the Mane Six, so Minty was a surprise (I was hoping for Firecracker Burst).
i doubt you're complaining about the surprise, though.
if i had the cheat sheet, i'd use it to get me rarity. >w<
Screw cheat sheets, I just want to find want to find SOMEthing, ANYthing.
THE. WORST. POSSIBLE. THING.
(Rarity is stamped '4' on the back seam of the packaging)
(thanks)
It's killing me not clicking on that spoiler tag, but I won't, since if lurking TVTropes has taught me ANYTHING it's never click on spoiler tags (so many shows/novels/movies, ruined forever). :L
So, apparently, dad thinks MLP:FIM is a good show for kids/kids-at-heart to watch because of the entire ponies-having-special-talents-that-they-follow thing. I found this out after i mentioned how, well, pony-ish he sounded when he started talking about how much better the world would be if people would use their natural talents and skills to decide what careers to go into. ^^'
THE HERD. THE HERD. ASSIMILATE.
@bella: damn, maybe he's a closet brony and isn't aware of his latent pony instincts. that said, i agree with him. :3
also, i clicked it days ago. i can tell you it doesn't spoil anything series-related. :\
@nej: are you aware you sound like the cybermen right now?
Series related or not, I'm scared to click it. >__>
SPOILER ALERT: it has to do with the toys. >>;;;
"Aw yeah, gonna look for blind bag ponies at a Walmart I don't usually get to go to!"
"Aw man, there are none here..."
"Dad has to go to Target to get some things... maybe I'll find some there!"
"There's an entire wall of MLP related things........ just not the things I'm looking for."
"Maybe I'll just save myself the grief and buy that gift set on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Little-Exclusive-12Pack-Collection-Special/dp/B005L3KW9U/ref=sr_1_76?ie=UTF8&qid=1326241264&sr=8-76), since i'll never find those freaking toys up here."
"AW DAMN, I JUST SPENT THE LAST OF MY CHRISTMAS MONEY ON POSTERS... NOW I WON'T BE ABLE TO BUY THOSE PONIES EVEN IF I FIND THEM."

Back onto topic: I've managed to somewhat tame the hair of my 3 G2(?) McDonald's Happy Meal MLP figurines. I should post pics of them, they're actually pretty cute.
are they still giving those out? cause i'm pretty sure you can buy the toys and i was gonna mention it to my sister.
Cool ^_^
My sister has a bunch of G1 ponies from when she was a kid, and a few G2 ones as well

No, I got these in 1998. I know they did a G4/MLP:FiM toy promo at McDonald's (and I actually really like those toys, they look very show-accurate) but that was awhile back and I'm sure now the only place you can find them is on ebay or collector sites for huge sums of moneyz. ._____.;
the older figures creep me out..... o__o
@bella: ah, lol. xD eh, i'm not about to go trolling ebay for this stuff. that's for you guys. xD
Dad insisted upon wrapping mah ponies up so I could have a gift to open with my nephew for our shared b-day party... the look of "Are you fucking
kidding me?" on my brother's face when I opened them was priceless. Spent the next five minutes or so showing him Equestria Daily in an attempt to convince him that bronies actually exist.
But now I've liberated the little guys from their box and they're taking over my desk. ^^;

Actually, the early G2 figures (http://www.kimsites.net/dreamvalley/new_ponies97.html) aren't half bad ... they're probably my second-favorite from a design POV, right behind G4. This is what mine look like. (http://www.kimsites.net/dreamvalley/97_mcd.html#mcdonalds)
Also, since you asked before - looks like McDonalds is going to run an MLP Happy Meal promo again in March. (http://www.equestriadaily.com/2012/01/new-mcdonalds-toys-coming-in-march.html) Thinking of picking some up myself, if they look any good (the images in the EQD article are the first set of FiM promo toys).
McD's MLP promo just ended here. One of the many clanners who work at one and know my brony affiliation picked up a load of 'em for me. MOAR LOOT! =W=
How many/what kinds did you get? : o
And would you be willing to pass any Fluttershy/Twi/Cheerilee ones along? : p
any extra rarities? ;^;
also, lol, the promo starts the day before my birthday. xD maybe i can convince my friend colleen to get rarity for me. she works at the local McD's.
also, my sister crocheted something for her friend, who had a G1 pony. those ones were freaky. >>;
Funny you should say that about G1 ponies; my sister finds the current gen ponies creepy (Although, she does like the show from what she's seen of it)
and she doesn't find the first gens creepy? .___.;;;

..............HOW?
For me, creepiness levels (from least to most creepy) goes G4<G2<G1<G3. At least G1 has the vintage/80s-camp thing going for it, while G3 is just plain ugly/creepy. : /
g3 has a japanese pony. i suddenly love them.
I guess it's the more cartoonish appearance of the G4 ponies, versus the more "realistic" look of the G1? Or, it could just be she's viewing it through nostalgia goggles
Come to think of it, it's likely the latter
i should say it's the latter, since anyone watching my little pony because they look "realistic" needs to have their eyes checked. :\

I guess it's the more cartoonish appearance of the G4 ponies, versus the more "realistic" look of the G1? Or, it could just be she's viewing it through nostalgia goggles
Come to think of it, it's likely the latter
I was actually going to suggest that, yeah.
I think that's why I like the G4 ponies, while G2 and G3 horrified me while G1 was just 'meh', they actually look like cartoons now instead of poor deformed horses.
considering g1 ended when i was born, were you guys even old enough to remember them when they were out?
I mainly know G1 because my sister; who grew up on them
Mhmm, I was familiar with them. Still aired in reruns around here.
i don't think my sister or anyone i knew had them. xD the first real exposure i've had to MLP is g4.

Also, the orange + green pony reminds me a little of Snails (http://mlp.wikia.com/wiki/Snails), heh.
which is funny, since the only things they have in common are being unicorns and students. xD
Guess who got blindbag Pinie Pie, Applejack, and a shiny Twilight Sparkle today? This guy.
Congrats. : o
I didn't like sparkle blind bag ponies at first, but after I saw some good pictures of them (ie, not Hasbro promo images) I changed my mind.
sparkle. *__*
(*wants a sparkle rarity*)
speaking of hasbro, i need to see how much blank board game boards would be. if i buy one i might pick up a blank pony, too. :3
I might be wrong but i don't think they make a sparkle Rarity. : / Only Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash IIRC.
WHY
RARITY IS THE MOST SPARKLY OF ALL
EVEN MORE THAN TWILIGHT SPARKLE
WHO HAS SPARKLE IN HER NAME
RARITY IS SUPREME
ERGO, DESERVES A SPARKLE FORM
OR BETTER YET A CRYSTAL FORM
CRYSTAL RARITY GET
Rarity is Choco's best pony?
Aw, now I wanna see some artist make crystal ponies! Even glass ponies would be really cool....
yes, rarity is my secret favourite. bonus points if it's rarity x spike.
that said, i get the feeling that someone could theoritically make them if they cast the pony out of wax or something then made a plaster mold and melted light-bright pieces into it. (was taught how to make plaster casts in clay class)
after that (and ensuring that the proper holes were cast in the mold to put in hair), hair would be glued in (likely synthetics from Volks or something) and the details painted on.

MY PLOT SENSORS ARE TINGLING
OSC, I COMMAND YOU TO HEED THIS CALL: >Headphones are directly left of me
Am I a DJ pony?
Asagi is to my left.
My special talent is [data missing] and that's how the internet was created and how I became the Fresh Prince of Bel Air
To my left is UTTER CHAOS UPON MY DESK, CAN'T PICK ONE SINGLE ITEM.
Thus: My special talent is chaos.
OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOGAMEBREAKERRR
Pentium is a computer tech pony.
Nejin is an anarchist pony DISCORD.
there is no item to my left, cause the left of me is the edge of the bed, where there is nothing but air.
FOREVER A BLANK FLANK ;v;
(in my lap is my sanji plushie. guess that means my special power is being a nerd/fujoshi?)
I'd say it's more of a flankspanking qm you get from Sanji...
Item to my left:
...This isn't cool at all. Should have turned my chair a bit before reading the post.
@Kari: If there's nothing to your left, that means you're a ninja :3
@Kari: There must be SOMETHING next to you. Even if it's the arm of a chair, or a pillow. Unless you're just sitting on the edge of the vacuum of space (in which case I suppose your special talent would be physics or sum'in) .... .___.;
@Remilia: Congratulations, your pony's special talent is growing grapes! What isn't cool about being a vineyard owner? : D
@nej: i like your thinking. -w-
@bella: if you're talking directly to my left, on the same level as me, there is air. the way my bed is set up, the back side is against the wall to my right. since this is a futon in the couch position, there is no other side, meaning there is literally nothing to my left. there's stuff on the below left, and some stuff on the behind left, but not left left.
and there's a Ciel plushie in my lap now. -w-

maybe someone can get this to work, since i tried and can't due to runtime errors.
I might try it out once I'm back home. I'm fairly certain 2k can do it :3
EDIT: I can picture some of you wanting this for your DS or another handheld system :3
It works on OMEGA no probs.
I find it a bit limited because NO MALES :/ but hey, it's a cool tool.
you could just make a butch pony. :\
dear OSC: (http://www.grandmathunderpants.com/index.php?p=detail&pid=145&cat_id=) you know you want these. (http://www.grandmathunderpants.com/index.php?p=detail&pid=148&cat_id=)
So, I stumbled onto a pony themed version of QWOP (http://donitz.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d57l774). Somebody's bound to be interested in this
um, unless you were playing a prank on us, i think you posted the wrong video. as interesting as that was.
Link is fixed, after freaking out because I didn't have the link to it anymore
it was still quite funny. :3
"moo moo, moo moo moo moo!" xD
True that xD
You have to love Blizzard for including that in Diablo II
Back on the subject of ponies, I now have the Mane 6 as well as Big McIntosh from the blind bags :3
they have a big mac blind bag?
ooo.... :0
Fair warning: I'm going to ask you guys to keep an eye out for those new MLP posters at Walmart, since there's only one Walmart in my area and they never get any new pony merch in. : /
@Bella: Ok. I'll send it your way if I find it :3
@Kari: Yep. Here's a pic of him on Sonata:
Also, the mane 6; together at last:

Oh man, all the Pinkie mold ponies are impossible to keep upright except at certain angles
I have to use the plastic case from an SD Card to keep her from tipping over most of the time ^_^;
SEASON 3 IN 4 HOURS
ARE YOU EXCITED, MEN!? OF COURSE YOU ARE!
PINKIE
PIE
AND I DON'T EVEN HAVE TO ENDURE THE DAMN STREAM
THIS IS SO GOOD I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY
That was...
Very epic.
It wasn't just mindless FUN FUN FUN everywhere, either - Pinkie, as she does when she encounters a crisis, actually made sense for once.
This is a very good episode, and thankfully, one that only keeps strengthening my headcanon. :)
PONIES! Pony pony pony pony!
Or rather; we finally got wave six blindbags here and I nabbed a Colgate, Twilight Velvet (Sparkle's mom), and one other. They also have the Whitelestia so I may go back for that...
ooo, sounds cool man. :0
Is Colgate a dentist pony? LOL
HEALTHY BRUSHING HABITS INVOLVE HORSEHAIR BRUSHES WHOOO
ugh....
either that or it must be some sort of dream sequence/non canon/etc. :\
this (http://texasuberalles.deviantart.com/art/I-Wasn-t-Prepared-For-This-338948022) sums up my feelings nicely. ><;
I really hope it's something temporary, for instance, Twilight "apprenticing" as ruler under Celestia, but then she realizes she isn't ready for the responsibility of being a princess / would rather be with her friends than in a stuffy ol' palace and ends up going back to Ponyville. That would be a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming.
If it's permanent, well...
my sentiments exactly. -__-;
Indeed. If they tried to replace her after she becomes a princess, it'll be like when Colonel O'Neill was promoted in Stargate SG-1 :\
the DA link i put in says it quite well. she (and us either for that matter) IS NOT PREPARED FOR IT. neither is the franchise, considering it's only their third season, and this is the type of show that can easily be milked for another 3-4 more. >>;
Indeed. What I mentioned with SG-1 didn't happen until the show's 8th season, so MLP pulling something like this is far too early :\
then it's a good thing...
If you hate MLP so much, why are you posting in this topic? :\
i wonder if they know how many people they're pissing off with stuff like this? either it's going to be nothing like what they've shown us, meaning they're trolling and will piss off half the fanbase, or it's serious, meaning that they'll piss off the OTHER half of the fanbase by uprooting the series so abruptly. sure, everyone will keep watching because the series has so much of a hold, but they can't keep pulling such trolly surprises forever. eventually people get pissed off enough that they just find something else. and considering MLP has the potential for so much more time/territory, eventually they will if the pattern continues. it's like being cheated on by a hot girl too much; eventually, you just decide that it's not even worth your time.
perhaps Faust plans to devote her time to helping McCracken out with his new show? but i doubt either would give up the cash cow so easily, even if Faust doesn't have as much involvement in it as she used to. :\
@alfonso: i agree with pent, why even come into this topic if you don't like it to at least some degree?
I'll still be watching, whatever they do. Season 2's finale looked awful this far ahead but we were wrong about it as well.

there you got it wrong, I like MLP, that's why I think FIM is a baaad way to bring it baack, that and the fact that it's unsettling, to say the least the way some "grown ups obsess about it... other than that, the art style is nice..."
@stew: agreed, but it still pisses me off that they would use troll tactics like that. is it that hard to be straight with us?
@alfonso:the vast majority of people here would disagree with you. sorry to put you out in the cold but that was the whole idea behind this thread, the discussion of FiM. i'm unsure if any of us have even SEEN any generations besides 4. tbh, the most of the older series i've seen was the sea pony song and frankly it creeped me out. .__.
Well, I used to watch the old G1 cartoon with my sister when I was really little. That's about it as far as pre-FIM goes
Okay the old stuff just looked creepy, at least the new show has more creativity poured into it.
i'm not gonna bash either way. but personally, the more realistic style of the ponies is one i never cared for. and as i said before, creepy sea ponies.

Yeah, I keep thinking the same thing. I was absolutely not looking forward to the S2 finale and thought it was going to be a cheap "girls love big weddings and princesses and pink, so here's a big wedding for a pink princess" ploy, but then they went and made it all sinister and action-packed. Also, I was freaked about the implications of a third princess (because there's only supposed to be two, dammit!
There was never any mention of others!) but what sort of bearing did Cadence have on the plot and the overall canon? The premier episode of S3 and introduction of the Crystal Kingdom, that's what.
So already we're looking at a situation where 1) It may not even turn out the way the promotional material has been hinting and whatever happens, it may not even have a substantial impact on future episodes / season 4.

The thing that has me worried the most is that this, in all likelihood, ISN'T the decision of the MLP:FIM creative team but Hasbro marketing. So the writers / producers may not even like the idea of alicorn!Twilight (and certainly don't like pissing off a large portion of the fandom) but there's really nothing they can do - Hasbro gets final say in what happens. :/

Thanks. ^^
hm
you know what
i think we all should have saw this coming
i mean, after all, twi is Celestia's apprentice/personal pupil, right? it's like she was grooming her to one day take the reins (heh, reins).
that's just speculation but it could make sense. not that i'm supportive of her coming to power this early. :\
Yeah, that's what the Alicorn Sparkle supporters are saying. And yeah, in my headcanon I did believe that Twilight was being groomed to be a ruler and wwould someday (key word being someday) become an alicorn, but it seems waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy too soon to make any sort of sense. (Considering that she's still in the pony equivalent of her teens / early 20s and still really immature / utterly unprepared to be any kind of ruler.) :z
no dude, i totally agree. it's WAY, WAY, WAAAAY too soon. Celestia's been on the throne over 1000 years. twilight's like, 12. (tbh they seem around that age, compared to big mac, who seems in his late teens, and other ponies who seem between their 20's-90's.)
to make twi a princess this early feels rushed. unless she got her own little space to rule over (in the case of Cadence and King Leo) or was a princess in name only (in the case of Prince Blueblood).
aren't they only supposed to be princeses/princes/etc if they're related? (bear in mind i haven't seen any S3 so idk about that evil king guy.)
Sombra apparently killed the ruler of the Chrystal Empire and installed himself on the throne, leading to decades of tyranny before Celestia was able to seal him along with the city.
As for royalty, we do know that the unicorns had a monarchy at the time of the pony unification more then a 1000 ago. Earth ponies had an elected chancellor that may or may not still exist while pegasai had some sort of dictatorship (in the original sense). At some point Celestia and Luna came into the equation, then around the time Shining Armor was born Cadance (who in my mind is a descendent of the original Chrystal Empress). To my way of thinking Blue Blood is part of the royal unicorn lineage that still exists as part of the nobility, but has no direct relationship to the actual rulers on the throne (think Germany post-unification).
i had a feeling. sombra says more "dictator" than "king" to me. the other stuff about ruling is interesting, though, i had a feeling that's how it went (though i assumed that each faction had their own monarchy).
as for Blueblood, it's canon that he's related to Celestia/Luna SOMEHOW, but it's sort of vague. :\ (cousin 52 times removed? i'm not even sure that's possible.)
He easily could be, we don't know how the Alicorn Sisters were created.
Maybe Celestia and Luna (AND Cadance) started out as unicorns too?
does tiara = alicorn? does this mean that if their tiaras come off, they lose their wings?
Element of magic did transform into a tiara for Twi...
