@Dark: I think Rarity can be casual enough when the situation calls for it. I doubt they need an episode like that with Pinkie.

If Flash Sentry was to show up in the real show.

Behold, the makeover katana. Now I imagine Rarity wielding Shurikens made of thread and sewing needles, spinning and throwing them in lightning-fast patterns to create stylish armor and deflecting shields.

Roses are red, violets are blue.

I'm sorry to say, you've been eaten by a Grue.

There is a tumblr about an insane thread about ponies.

Kinda interesting that Flash is a pegasus, and non-crystal. It kinda made me think maybe he's part of group Shining Armour brought to the Crystal E Mpire for some reason. But then that made me think maybe Shiny hoof-picked some guard stallions to be around Twilihgt(After all, his princess fell for him, so it's not so unlikely). And then...

"Hell Flash Sentry I like you! You can come over to my Kingdom and fuck my sister!"

And the exact position their leg joints meet.

Well all three Princesses where there. So he might have been part of Celestia and Luna's escorts/honor guard.

Search your feelings, you know it to be awesome.

Now I imagine;

Captain Rarity, of Royal Makeup Corps.

Indeed, young padawan.

I got my final grades. It happened again. I failed by three marks. That deja vu is not even funny.

That's it then. I've got no degree and only debt to show for the effort. This only confirms that I should never have bothered with higher education.

I've got to go pluck up the courage to admit defeat to everyone. Bye.

By three marks? Can't you talk to your professor, see if there's anything you can do to bump up those last three marks?

#376741 d Roy Tue, 18th Jun '13 9:58:18 AM from Princeton, New Jersey

@Apple - I have no idea what you are going through and I don't know what can be done to improve your situation. All I can do is offering you my sympathy and wish for the best, whatever they are worth.

#376742 CDRW Tue, 18th Jun '13 10:00:44 AM

I'm so sorry Apple. I think it's worth trying out what Kegisak said just to make sure there really isn't anything you can do before you give up though.

There is a tumblr about an insane thread about ponies.

I'm sorry, Apple :(

That is the face of a man who just ate a kitten. Raw.

#376744 Japanese Teeth Tue, 18th Jun '13 10:21:18 AM from Meinong's jungle

@Apple: That sucks, and I agree with Kegisak that you should go talk to your profs or advisers or something to see if there's anything you can do to bump it up a few notches. Maybe redo a previous project or something.

Weren't you like less than a year away from being done with uni? That sounds way familiar for me.

You can't throw in the towel, not now. Not until you've exhausted every last trick in the freaking book.

(And if all else fails, even if you don't have a degree, you still have years worth of a college education. And that's something that's definitely valuable, don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise.)

Don't know why I left the homestead

I really must confess

#376746 Meta Four Tue, 18th Jun '13 10:41:21 AM from riding the wave

Even without a degree, "I studied for X years at Y University" looks better on your CV than nothing.

And, since today is apparently National Jump To Conclusions Day...

#376747 Japanese Teeth Tue, 18th Jun '13 10:45:09 AM from Meinong's jungle

Yeah, degree or no degree, you learned a lot. Not just content, but also how to deal with stress and pressure, which is honestly the most valuable thing you take away from pretty much any sort of education.

Applelight, I have two pieces of general advice.

Firstly, like several have said, don't give up so easily. Talk to profs, advisors, administrators, whoever, and see if there is anything you can do about it.

Secondly, I'm sorry but I'm going to be that guy. If you manage to salvage your education, recognize that if you don't seriously change how you're approaching this, you will just end up in the same situation again. Again, talk to your profs and advisors because if you have trouble passing then you need help. Don't be afraid to ask.

So, I was so taken with the idea of Touhou Spellcards for Celestia that I went ahead and made some rough storyboards for the last one, developed the idea for five more, and even come up with a story outline for the game. There's five levels and one Extra Stage. The boss for level one is Chrysalis, level two Cadance, Level Three Twilight, Four Luna, Five Celestia, and the Extra Stage is Nightmare Moon.

You can play as King Sombra, a changeling drone, or Derpy.

I currently have a text file several pages long outlining an entire Ponihou game. Six stages, Extra + Phantasm, Last Words for practice mode, all named spellcards, scoring, achievements, secret playable character, the works.

Somewhere around here I have sketches of everyone's shot/bomb types too.
