I know...bloody laughing.

So what did Twilight say when she whispered to Spike in the beginning? All I caught was "King Somber's spell must be why their -something something- crystally."

'Their coats aren't crystally'. Implying that they're supposed to be more shiny

So the Crystal Empire actually does have an Emperor, and not a King or a Princess.

Or at least I think I heard Dash say "A way to protect the Emperor."

I do like that Rainbow is the one saying the crystal ponies should be protecting the emperor. Fitting for the element of loyalty.

Huh, guess I was right on the sadness theme, kind of. Then again I guess that wasn't to hard a guess considering the villain's name.

...Crap. Now I'm imagining Crystal Kingdom knights charging into battle yelling FOR THE EMPEROOOOOOR!

So, if despair is their theme, did one of their princesses make a deal with Kyubey?

A Penrose Triangle

would make a sweet Cutie mark.

Why is it always a thousand years? Why not 1, 103? Or 829? Of course, storytellers could be rounding or exaggerating for dramatic effect.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

#292735 edvedd Thu, 11th Oct '12 8:43:34 PM from Over there. Maybe?

Well, '829 years' doesn't have quite the same ring to it in dialogue.

Not to mention that people tend to round when dealing in large numbers.

#292737 Kyler Thatch Thu, 11th Oct '12 8:47:53 PM from negative space

Why would a kingdom have an emperor? Or is the kingdom just part of a larger empire?

#292738 Seraphem Thu, 11th Oct '12 8:49:15 PM from Delamare

well it doesnt has to be 1000 years exactly, it's more a general term. Except the NMM thing and that they had a counter on to know exactly how long it had been.

OHH unless what happened to the CP's was related to NMM maybe the banishment spell was orignally made or marketed to them as a way to survive the Night the Never Ends she nearly cuased. just wait it out.

You'll have to forgive me for butting in, I'm pretty new here, but I just had to ask this. You see...there's this

. Is this really how the bronies of TV Tropes feel about My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Season 2? I mean, 17 out of 26 episodes are said to absolutely suck here.

ugh, no, avoid the DMOS page like the plague.

It's where one or two people over react to some little thing they take out of context or blow all out of proprtion and rant about it just for the sake of ranting.

I wouldn't trust that. We have different likes and dislikes.

#292742 Perpetual Lurker Thu, 11th Oct '12 8:51:58 PM

Not at all. An episode ends up on that page because a single person decides to put it there. That's the way it is with any YMMV page. There's no collective consciousness deciding that those episodes suck. Just irrational and angry individuals.

#292743 Kyler Thatch Thu, 11th Oct '12 8:52:15 PM from negative space

Protip: Don't put any stock into the Darth Wiki. That's where we shuffle off the complainers so they don't muck up the rest of the wiki.

Sure, there are controversial episodes, but in general, our collective opinion of the episodes are pretty good.

Grief in a half shell, I forgot we still had "Dethorning Moment of suck", why the hell does that exist again?

Anyhow, page editors and fourm-goers are usually two completely different monsters, the opinions there represent a larger and whole different group of people.

In other words, we're not the ones to ask, anons are.

Also, I've seen the preview clip. Wow those crystal ponies are adorably depressing.

@The Warlock: That's Darth Wiki. That is essentially made for dissatisfied people to just go and complain all they want. It's not meant to be a reflection of the actual opinion of most people on the wiki, but too contain the most extreme negative fandumb, or hatedom.

@Beware: OOC: Mind you, those are individual opinions. Unless there is a conformity going on, I highly doubt they, the tropers on DMS represent the entire community.

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

#292747 Crowfall Thu, 11th Oct '12 8:53:20 PM

I think just about everyone avoids that page because it is full of completely absurd nitpicking of the most minor crap. It's just a handful of people making that page.

#292748 Perpetual Lurker Thu, 11th Oct '12 8:54:01 PM

Actually, I'm kinda surprised that almost none of the people who edit the pages ever pop in here.

#292749 Ace Of Scarabs Thu, 11th Oct '12 8:54:11 PM from Singapore

The Darth Wiki is our forbidden zone where opinions too controversial even for YMMV get sealed away.

@Lurker: Not sure I'd want them too :P

@Perpetual: They apparently hate the show, so why would they come to a thread dedicated to it?
