Clearly, what really happened was Dash used an outdated and unsecure version of IE that was left over from when Twi switched to Firefox. She knew she should have gotten rid of that!

@Kylar

I've been looking for those storyboards all over the Internet, specifically the Call of the Cutie one! Sibsy took them down not long after she originally put them up on her deviantART page (I suspect she wasn't actually allowed to post them), and they sort of disappeared (at least from google).

Note how most of the background ponies in the "Call of the Cutie" storyboard are different from the final version in the show, except for the Good Doctor who's even drawn with his cutie mark half the time! Sibsy has said she normally doesn't draw cutie marks on BG ponies unless she's picking out a specific one (like with Berry Punch's famous scene in the same episode).

Just some small details I think are interesting.

Does that mean we have Word Of God that DW was deliberately put in that scene?

There wasn't any fanon on him that far back. In fact, his appearance there was what got people to notice him in the first place, so while his appearance was intentional, it didn't have anything to do with us.

Presumably this storyboard was drawn before even Episode 1 aired. There were no Fandom Nods until "Feeling Pinkie Keen", which came later and that was just in post-production eye edit.

Also, I think "Winter Wrap Up" is when bronies first noticed Doctor Whoof, even though he didn't speak he did sing right next to Rarity & Fluttershy and that was when his cutie mark was first clearly visible. WWU is the episode right before Call of the Cutie, though, so eh close enough.

Speaking of the Good Doctor, less than a week since the latest episode of Doctor Who aired and we have a pony comic about it. Sometimes I wonder if its not Bronies who are everywhere but Whovians that are everywhere.

You know something I would really like to see?

A rap battle between Pinkie Pie and Gonzo the Great.

It would be the best thing ever.

Actually, there are only three of us, we just hang around in different regenerations and use incomprehensible technobabble to avoid the universe exploding. It functions much like pulling the tablecloth out from under the cutlery, only you need to do it a million times a second.

By the way, have you guys heard of claims of a seventh Element of Harmony? Apparently, this EOH is called Love, and Princess Cadence gets to be the bearer of that one.

I'm not sure what to think about this. I mean, if there was a seventh one, it would raise a load of questions. For instance, if six of them were sufficient to defeat Nightmare Moon and Discord, why would they need a seventh one? Also, it would raise the question of why a seventh one called Love had never even been mentioned in the show for two whole seasons!

Is there actually a source for this, or are we dealing with something based off eye witness acounts, bathroom gossip, wild speculation, and a magic 8 ball?

I know it's not a shoutout or anything, I was just wondering if it was intentional.

It was an error on the trading cards.

Where do you get your information, anyway, Tiggers? You seem to have a habit of popping up with long debunked rumors or old news.

He discovered pornography.

Pretty.

He just doesn't check the thread as obsessively as we do.

The trading cards also tell us that the alicorns are not part Earth pony. Also, wasn't Gummy Cadence's pet or something stupid like that?

Well, I look at the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic wiki, and look at the comments. One comment said about the so-called seventh Element of Harmony. I know comments are not the most reliable place to get information, but sometimes you can find real gems in them! Anyway, thank you for explaining that one.

I don't know about you, but I hope the next villain that appears in MLPFIM is voiced by Harlan Ellison. You might ask, "Can he voice act?" I would say, "Can he voice act? Hold on a minute!"

HE did such a good job voicing AM the Artificial Intelligence that some reviewers said that "AM" ought to be renamed "HAM". HE would probably never sign up for a show starring ponies, but if he was put in the role of a villain in this show, he would put the Vile in Vile Villain, Saccharine Show, I guarantee it!

It seems more like narm to me.

He just doesn't check the thread as obsessively as we do.

Why hasn't anyone posted in the last four minutes? What's wrong?

I don't know. Beats me.

Well, I had to post something. Apologies for my utter lack of drawing ability.

Didn't you already post that?

Apologies for my utter lack of drawing ability.

You're talking to someone who can't even draw a straight line.

Drawing straight lines is easy. Just hold down crtl shift.

@Story: Yeah, but I don't have anything else to post and I figured somebody who hadn't already seen it already might drop by.

Well I didn't look at it the first time so I guess it paid off.

@Tiggersaregreat: That A.I. thing sounds like a robo-Karkat {prose-wise, not voice-wise).
