No surprise then, I dislike the way this particular writer writes Pinkie Pie. Mystery solved

Yup, that fanfic. And if the fic is as bad as the music there's no way in hell I'm ever reading it.

And it's not the content that puts me off, it's the utter craptasticness of the music itself.

I'd say it's worth listening to at least a dramatic reading of it.

Then again, I'm a masochist

Is that the musical with a Pinkie version of "Want you gone" from Portal 2?

Not sure. There's several different attempts at it. Iknow one was portal themed, and one was sweeny todd themed, and at least one more too, but they all raped my ears so much I didn't have the presence of mind to pay attention to the lyrics. The Portal one was the least bad of the ones I've heard, mostly because it didn't have any bronies trying to sing.

What's up with these dvd's anyways? I thought they had no plans for a dvd release.

#31933 Japanese Teeth Mon, 24th Oct '11 11:24:15 AM from Meinong's jungle from Meinong's jungle

I'm pretty sure they confirmed that dvds were in the works, but they never mentioned specifics. Hopefully this isn't what they were talking about, because I want all the episodes, not just the ones written by a specific writer.

At least this one apparently has some sort of bonus feature(s). Besides what exactly those are, my question is where they're even selling it. Can't buy what you can't find, after all.

And as usual, when DVDs are mentioned, fans whine about no Blu Rays. Spoiled kids

As a dinosaur and someone who can't afford fancy high tech stuff, I'd love a DVD set.

Also, I didn't know M. A Larson was a guy. Or that he wrote for Sym Bionic Titan.

So, a first paragraph of Ponywulf for anyone interested.

LO, Praise the prowess of pony-queens,

of unicorned Celestians in days long sped.

We have heard, and what honor the Alicorns won!

Oft Celestia, filly of one Not Known,

from squadroned foes, from many a herd,

the feed trough tore, awing the earth ponies.

Since erst she lay friendless, a foundling, fate repaid her:

She prospered under the sun, in wealth she throve,

till before her the equines, both far and near,

heard her mandate, gave her gifts:

a good queen was she!

I like it! Remember your alliteration and your caesuras, even if the latter won't carry over on this site.

Alliteration I can do, but what's a caesura?

I wanna see some fanfiction covering the back story of "Star Swirl the Bearded"! :D Invented 200 new spells?! Has his own section in the bookstore?! I'd be like Lord of the Rings!

#31941 Whatshisgame Mon, 24th Oct '11 12:06:43 PM

And the Framing Device could be present-day Star Swirl learning about her namesake

Andandand it would feature a Mythology Gag toward the previous generation character!

I mean that positively, by the way.

@CDRW: A caesura is a split in a line that serves as a poetic device. In my example earlier:

In Celestia's castle, - - -fearsome the fillies
Brave the Bearers- - -of magical gems!

Here's the Wikipedia page

, with an example from Beowulf.

I just can't win can't I?

I spend hours trying to get the proportions right and put all my O Cs, and Derpy and Luna, and make sure to update Luna to her new appearence. And all I get is "The deviation does not meet our quality standards." without even an actual reason. It's one thing to reject a hastily made deviation without consideration but could they be considerate to provide an acutal reason when it was clear there was a lot of time spent into it.
