OK, I been thinking. Who do you think would win, Rainbow Dash or Twilight Sparkle?

@Waz: It's very technically accurate, but your rendition of Bad Apple!! to be frank lacks the punchiness and high/low heights and depths of some of the more intense covers. You should try using more instruments to get a fuller and richer range and "punch" to it, because after Sonic and Rocket Knight music I know how punchy the Megadrive's sound chip can be. Nevertheless, it's a nice first attempt :D

@Mousa: Heya. Yeah, I steer clear of OTC too because it's too srs business and I already know how irreverent and snarky I can get at times

@Ed: dat human!Twi :3 megusta.jpg

@Condo: Win at what? Hmmmm...

Competition: Archeology "race" time! Who'll solve more mysteries, Dashie with her Daring Do fangirlling, or Twi with her more methodical approach?

I was thinking more along the lines of a regular battle, rather than the "of wits" variety.

I don't know... Rainbow Dash managed to take down Starscream, like I said...

The thing is, Twi has a whole lotta magical power in her corner, but Dash can fly, is faster, and, most importantly, is stronger.

All Twi needs to win is prep time and properly chosen prepared spells. When a wizard is given time to prepare, their odds of winning are dangerously high.

Beep beep beep :3 (Loops, Dangerously Adorable)

OK, so, what are the precise arbitrary conditions of this hypothetical fight between two fictional characters?

If we're gonna do this, let's do it right.

DAMMIT ACE! NOW IT'S STUCK IN ME AND MY SISTER'S HEADS~

@Mousa: Your resistance to earworms is dangerously low I swear the next time someone tries to read my mind, they'll overwrite the contents of their brain with something in the region of over 60 different earworms of Legendary potency. If you scrape the background noise in my mind, you'll pick up Caramelldansen, Rick Astley, and Guile's Theme (which goes with everything).

Seriously speaking, that loop has amazing animation quality :D Their eyes move along with their bobbing heads very well, and the lipsynch is much better after the last couple of revisions.

That's a scary thought Ace.

Oh, I accidentally left Twi out in the Open and my sis has discovered her and now she wants to condition her hair....

We live strange lives

If Twilight is a Wizard, then what's Rainbow Dash? A Barbarian? The do get Fast Movement, anyway.

Apparently, this is the visual novel that Moonstuck was based on.

@Broccoli: Nah, you can stick around. You certainly aren't causing any problems.

@Con: Depends, really. If Twilight knows the fight is going to take place, she can just toss up a force field and snipe at RD with her magic. Other thing is that she's been show using her TK to literally grab RD out of the air, so it's likely she could screw up RD's flight patterns enough to make her crash. On the other hoof, RD probably has way more stamina and power, so she gets one good hit in and the entire thing is over. It basically comes down to whether Twilight's magic is strong enough to stop RD from ramming her head on.

@Ace: Can I pick 'em, or can I pick 'em?

@Kyler: Dashie's a Dex-based Barb.

@Ed: Well, would you like "Rock Me Amadeus", "Stardust Speedway/Just Dance (by Lady Gaga, mashup by DJ Yuzoboy)", "Winter Wrap-up", or "The Song That Doesn't End?"

Rainbow Dash would win.

Do you have two ponies now, Mousa?

Okay, I'll stick around.

Sure wish I came around at a more fruitiful time, however.

I wonder if it's possible to project a teeny-tiny forcefield, like 1cm in diameter. And then use it as the unicorn equivalent of a pike against the pegasus equivalent of a charging cavalry.

Okay, who'd win this time, Banjo and Kazooie or Trixie?

How good is Twilight's aim? I imagine it'd be pretty hard to hit RD at full speed.

Plus, they both have ample time to prepare and create a battle plan and run up the steps of the Fillydelphia Museum of Art and all that.

@Broccoli: We've had better days, but I think we'll be fine overall. Just keep on being a part of the conversation.

Rainbow's temperament screams Barbarian, but she'd have some major speed bonuses

And I have the one, I gave Rarity to my sister. Now that I have Twi, it means I won't be tempted to steal back Rarity, because I was because I really wanted a figurine.

Then I have three more than you, Mousa. Though mine aren't brushable.

Yeah, hopefully the thread won't be locked, and launched into the sun...
