So, Scootaloo can fly in the game, but a Royal Pegasus Guard needs magic butterfly wings?

He can fly under his own power, but he was so enamored of Rarity in Sonic Rainboom that he wanted to become fabulous too.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

@Calnos: Maybe his armor gets in the way of his wings or something.

Maybe he took pity on Scootaloo and gave her his ability to fly.

One funny thing the Everfree review brought up was "Why does Canterlot Castle have doorknobs?"

Well, round doorknobs more suited for hands anyways.

The doorknobs were designed by the unicorns for whatever reason and the Princesses kept it for various reasons (like budget lol)

In the tab title (is that the right name?) for Crystal Empire Part 2's recap page, the phrase "My Little Pony" comes up as "My Littly Pony." Why is that?

EDIT: Tried linking to said recap page directly but it wouldn't work...

Doorknobs are actually a remarkably simple yet effective security measure for a unicorn castle.

Round door knobs? Eh, we put our hoof on it and turn.

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

@Orion: I suppose you could get a good grip with proper leverage.

I'm sure you do.

I question how you can type, what you just stated.

@David: They converted the typewriters seen in Ponyville Confidential to work as I/O for computers :P

@Pykrete: I'm imagining a Unicorn fortress where the door is secured by a slippery, foul-tasting doorknob

@Orion: Oh yeah, that. I thought you just brought in a typewriter and figured out how to jerry-rig it.

One thing I've started to see surface on the dark side of the fandom is the portrayl of Sombra engaging in some pretty... depraved ways of tormenting his slaves.

Those lever-style door handles would probably be better suited for hooves than the round ones.

@Ace: Our typewriters are a bit interesting when compared to yours. As you know there are only 2 buttons, but here's the thing, each button has half of the characters. Think of it like this, you know how your computers have that nub thing in the F and J keys? Imagine a button that can perform all of the characters left or right of that nub. To explain how that works, each button has a set amount of clicks. The left button, for example, goes like this; one click gets you the letter A, the second click gets B, third gets C and so on.

Does that help?

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

#302744 Sydxelia Mon, 12th Nov '12 8:07:41 PM

I learned to type on a refurbished Underwood manual typewriter from the 1920s. I still have it. I swear it weighs about 50 pounds. Those things were built to last!

So, the current poll on EQD is what is the best fanon Trixie.

coming in at first place is...Twixie at 35%.

then redeemed Trixie at 20% and evil Trixie at 15%.

That sounds like a terribly inefficient way to handle things. You want a system that doesn't scale linearly with the number of possible characters. At least a Horse Code approach would yield an exponential mapping.

I'd prefer more keys used with a claw attachment, but granted foals might not have the coordination for that.

E Ps and Pegasi could use doorknobs, it's just not as easy.
