Oh a new person, hello- *Sees Echoax's favorites* -_-;;

Sigh... Anyway, I have no illusions about this fandom, no one should, all fandom's are alike and have no desire to leave any just because bad eggs exist. The key is to have average expectations.

Super effective!

Hmmm... I think it's about time I pulled out the old Quantitative Pony Ranking System again.

I rate the ponies on a 1-10 scale in four areas that the ponies appeal to me: Character, Humor, Cuteness, and Awesomeness. Last few times I did this, the results were incredibly inconclusive. In any case, here we go!

---

Twilight Sparkle:

Character: 8/10

Humor: 7/10

Cuteness: 7/10

Awesomeness: 9/10

Total: 31/40

---

Rainbow Dash:

Character: 7/10

Humor: 6/10

Cuteness: 9/10

Awesomeness: 10/10

Total: 32/40

---

Applejack:

Character: 9/10

Humor: 7/10

Cuteness: 6/10

Awesomeness: 8/10

Total: 30/40

---

Rarity:

Character: 10/10

Humor: 8/10

Cuteness: 8/10

Awesomeness: 6/10

Total: 32/40

---

Fluttershy:

Character: 7/10

Humor: 7/10

Cuteness: 10/10

Awesomeness: 8/10

Total: 32/40

---

Pinkie Pie:

Character: 6/10

Humor: 10/10

Cuteness: 8/10

Awesomeness: 7/10

Total: 31/40

---

Conclusion:

And... Now there's even less difference in my opinions of them... Yep. I've got nothing.

It's been so long since I answered this that I'm going to answer it again.

1. Twilight (with Rarity in second)

2. Either A Dog and Pony Show or Lesson Zero

3. She's okay most of the time but I prefer it when her zaniness is limited to her personality and doesn't dominate the show too much.

4. Lyra

5. Sure, why not.

6. Not sure. Mahogany is pretty nice, I guess.

I'm running into much the same problem trying to group the episodes by how good I think they are. I currently have five tiers. When I finally finish it I'll use it as a reference point for my s1/s2 wrapup. Which I do intend on doing it's just at the bottom of my priority list at the moment.

Who's your favorite pony? Rarity

Favorite episode? Sister Hooves Social

What do you think of Pinkie Pie? She's just there. I'm not a big fan of her

Favorite Background Pony? Allie Way

Would you hug the Great And Powerful Trixie? In a heart beat

What's your favorite type of wood? Um...firewood. It makes arrow.(skyrim FTW)

@Lurker: I've tried comprehensive rankings like that, but I always find that the sum of the character's parts is what makes me like them.

I like all the Mane Six, they're much nicer than many of the real females I have to deal with on my old day job.

Anyways, I just remembered an old slang, fleague a jade, and I know what it means, and am seriously wondering wut would ponies even attempt that.

Allie Way needs more fans. I approve of your answers to these questions.

@con Which is why I rank them by the sum of their parts.

Yeah, my standings are based mostly on relatability, which is so subjective that it's basically useless.

My standings are based pretty much solely on whether I like their personality or not.

Allie Way needs more air time :3

I honestly struggle to rank the mane 6 at all, they are all awesome in different ways.

I just like characters for all different reasons, you know? Daring Do I like because AWESOME, plus wish fulfillment, and Luna because her social anxiety and awkwardness are relatable and Twi because we're both obsessive nerds.

Me, too. This question is almost as important as "Who would win, Batman or Superman?"

Let's not pressure Mousa.

Oh heya Orion, fine, I'll let him have some breathing room for now
