What? What? What?! What..

What the heck? No way. That's too sci-fi for this show, that's impossible, this is obviously a very good joke. I mean time travel? Heh uh, no way, not in a show like this, that would be pushing it, right? Right?

@Chariot: EQ Daily confirmed it, S 2 E 20 is an episode where Twi gets a warning from her future self about something and worries about it.

It will probably wind up being some sort of misunderstanding. Bringing time travel into a story complicates things or makes it weird that it isn't utilized more. I'm generally against it showing up midway through a show if it isn't a major part of the plot.

[up]Huh? When?

Take a teleport spell, hack the space destination coordinates into time destination coordinates. Compile. Voila, time travel!

I don't doubt Twilight's magic being capable of time travel. I do, however, doubt the show venturing in that direction, unless it's for one of those multi-episode adventure thingies. At best.

This is insane! Why would there time travel in a show like this?

Pick one:

  • Magic
  • Redheart's shady new drug
  • Celestia is fooling around again
  • It's a Sugarcube Corner conspiracy

[up] and again, we've had time travel before, we can have it again. I don't see the issue

I'm not convinced that that's time travel. That looks like a vision-flashback to me.

That was with Discord, who could basically break the laws of the universe, and anyway it wasn't entirely clear if that was time travel or an illusion or what.

I wonder if that image is on the TV Tropes image server, so I can just inline it next time. tongue

[up][up] The simplest solution is most often the correct one. Don't put more thought into something than is completely necessary.

That's what I mean whenever I say it. Got the definition I use from House

Have you seen the size of this thread? Putting too much thought into things is what we do around here. And if Discord could time travel with such ease, Equestria would be a lot more fucked than it was in those episodes.

@ginger Occam's razor, also known as Ockham's razor, and sometimes expressed in Latin as lex parsimoniae (the law of parsimony, economy or succinctness), is a principle that generally recommends that, from among competing hypotheses, selecting the one that makes the fewest new assumptions usually provides the correct one, and that the simplest explanation will be the most plausible until evidence is presented to prove it false.

Today, tomorrow, and yesterday, I learned, will learn, and am learning that Time Travel is not to be trifled with.

[up][up][up] Not really. Discord only seems to be interested in the present and the future ( since it's chaotic and unpredictable), and it was clear that the ONLY reason he lost was due to his overconfidence anyway.

[up][up] That's pretty much how I try to use it
