Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, and three times is...I forget the rest of the quote, but the point is claiming that an entire season of something is going to suck because in one particular situation the writers made a minor edit is a bit much. There's zero indication that they intend on making other similar edits, so until some more information implying that arises I'm just going to assume that it was an isolated incident.

What's the deal with security guards getting walkie talkies?

Okay, proceeding to deal.

What kinda new creatures do you think will or want to show up in the new series? I'm hoping for a Sphinx and some camels personally.

When ET got remastered they had to edit some guns into walkie talkies to maintain the rating or something.

Camels would be pretty cool.

I already said that Season 3 is getting ONE chance.

The deal with security guards getting two-way radios CG Ied in the place of their guns from E.T. when the kids fly over the barricade on their bikes for the 20 Year Anniversary, I think.

I still want to see the Diamond Dogs come back. They were some of my favorite one-shot characters from the first season.

Diamond Dogs were the best.

Anyway, hi everyone, it's been a while.

Diamond Dogs were cool, I'd like to see more of their civilisation like whether they're mostly similar to the Diamond Dogs in ADAPS or if they're mostly respectable.

@bad I believe we've theorized that Diamond Dogs get enslaved by dragons a lot so the dragons can amass a hoard. But it'd be cool to see some sort of underground city. Maybe the Diamond Dogs we've seen were just rogue jewel hunters, and not representative of the society.

Thank you. I appreciate that. I remember seeing you turn up in my notifications. Are you aware of the sequel that I've recently stated? It's called More than Forty Blinks and the first chapter is up.

My personal headcanon is that the three we see were the heads a scouting team sent from their home country to import valuable gems. The reason they kidnapped Rarity is because they were in danger of not making quota.

Complete conjecture on my part, but it's part of a story idea I had.

While we're on the subject, check out his other story, too. It's quite interesting.

I'm actually enjoying it for the most part, with a few qualifications that I'm letting Sereg know about.

What makes their kidnapping especially silly is that Rarity probably would have helped them willingly. I hope they follow up on that plot thread of the Diamond Dog needing diamonds someday.

Well, this is new.

Is The Earth Pony's Guide To Magic avaiable in Kindle format?

My 2 bits: "Derp" was popularized by the creators of South Park, and Derpy was named by 4chan. The further away My Little Pony can be from those two things (officially anyways), the better.

My biggest problem with Derpygate is actually that since then Hasbro refuses to give her a name. I'm alright with them not calling her Derpy, but call her something. Ditzy Doo (she was Ditzy Doo in the original script, and Ditzy was mentioned in a previous episode with no complaints anyways), Bubbles, Bright Eyes, Yellowmane Dash, anything!

ADDITION: This thread is moving faster than I can type/hit the "send" button again, isn't it?

"her name IS Derpy, they've confirmed this over and over, they just can't put that name in anything anyone from the intended age group will see en masse.

Yeah more Diamond Dogs, but not the exact same ones, they are fun, but I'd love to see what other of that race are like.

Ahoy again!

Actually I prefer they leave her nameless. Imagine the shitstorm if they officially started calling her Ditzy.

I like the way they're handling it now, like with the "I <3 [Derpy]" thing.

I know we've got some Discworld fans in the audience.

With regards to Derpy, I always maintained that Ditzy Doo would have been a better name. But, what's done is done. And as to the whole Derpygate thing, meh...I got over it.

Hey Sky. Haven't seen you around lately.

Yeah, I've been gone for a few months. But I'm back now.

Twilight doesn't make a good Rincewind though because she can actually do magic and isn't a coward.
