@Bluespade that's how deceiving works. Sometimes the scam is pretty obvious but the desire of it being true makes you fall for itsad

@Crow: It was quite a long time ago, but from what I remember, somebody created a sockpuppet that basically posted in-character as Twilight Sparkle. Things snowballed from there and sockpuppets of other cast members started showing up en masse. Storyyeller could probably find the point that that stuff started.

What ever happened to Owloysius anyway? They had a whole episode devoted to him becoming Twilight's new assistant, and then he was never seen again. That sort of thing bugs me, this show needs more consistency. He showed up in May The Best Pet Win I guess, that's something.

And I'm not surprised to see Gummy won, Gummy is the best pet.

Storyyeller could probably find the point that that stuff started.

Storyyeller already told us with some graph thing a couple hundred pages back, actually. Or at least, he told us the precise dates.

[up][up][up] The easy answer is that writers are lazy. The over-analytical answer is that he's nocturnal, so you don't see him much during the day. tongue

The seer amount of random continuity in the previous episode points to more quick appearances by side characters in future episodes, so he and Tank will hopefully show up again soon.

The main difference was that here it only happened once, but it was ridiculously dense.

Actually, it happened twice.

The easy answer is that writers are lazy.

The thing is, I can never quite make up my mind about that. A lot of the things the writers do on this show do seem really lazy: flanderizing a character to drive home the episodic aesop, lack of continuity, repeating episode plots in quick succession, etc. But at the same time, the quality of writing is much higher than any other kids show I know (other than Avatar).

Maybe Brilliant, but Lazy?

[up] The ritual was a success!

Bear in mind that the general lack of continuity is partially intentional.

Alright question time: Do you all think it would fit better for Daring Do to like teaching or dislike it?

@Pannic Yeah, but they appear to be shying away from that a lot more recently. I think they've managed to hit the right balance with A Friend In Deed. Plenty of little references to show that, yes, other episodes did happen, but nothing that would ever confuse someone watching the show for the first time.

Considering she pretty much has the same personality as Rainbow Dash, I'd say she'd enjoy it as long as she had the chance to show off her knowledge of something. Rainbow seemed to enjoy teaching Apple Bloom karate.

@L Mage: I have her liking teaching the freshmen because that's when the students are most excited about her subject. Alternatively she can love the part where she meets bright young minds and hate everything else associated with teaching.

Sometimes I wish this thread was more chaotic and goofy, but that would involve constant complete derails, so I guess it's a good thing it's not.

Wow, Hilarious in Hindsight much?
