[up]Don't you mean Season II: Electric Scootaloo?

Depends on how willing they are to have continuity. In season one they wanted the episodes to be viewable in any order. If that is still the case, its unlikely they'll want the crusaders to have cutie marks in some episodes but not others. But I'm hoping they're relaxing that a bit, so its possible.

I love CMC , and whant to see more episodes with them, even after they got their CM.

But giving one of them CM only is terible idea. If one get CM she will explain to the rest how to get theirs and they will it quicky. If this will cause drama I call BS.

You say drama like it's a bad thing. tongue

Seriously, though, it's a point of conflict, which makes for a potentially good story. They kinda missed that with Twist, I'd say.
But apart, all we are is just a pile of mush and some crumbly dry mess...

[up]No I not comlain about drama or conflict. I complain about cause of drama and conflict. If you whant something similar don't give CM to one of CMC , bring back Twist.

^Twist would have had her cutie mark for months by any time they could bring her back. There's no way they could believably say "okay, it's been five months since Twist got her mark and Applebloom didn't; now it's suddenly a problem!"

[up]How about fact that AB don't spend any time with her (former?) best friend?

And now I make fun of the ATG admins' ponysonas (and some of the ED staff, since there's some crossover between them).

I have a question, DC. You don't seem to have a problem with Twist stirring up drama about being abandoned after she got her cutie mark. What's the difference if it happens to, say, Scootaloo? Or Sweetie Belle?

I think if one of them gets their cutie mark, it should be a massive deal, and the crusader who got it SHOULDN´T know how they obtained it (or even what the mark represents).

Or what about an episode where a villain (Discord perhaps) gives one of the CMC a fake mark just to drive them apart?

By this point, I'd just love watching them get a Cutie Mark to just end their story arc, even if it IS only one of them. In fact, one would be best, because it would cause drama for the other two and would actually give them an interesting episode for once.

[up][up][up][up] That would be first CMC ep what I may dislike.

[up][up][up][up][up]Y Ou can't hafe fake CM (AB tried this and din't work).

And you can't have CM and don't know how you got it or what it represent.

[up] It's because Shota has a point. A little drama done right will truly bring in viewers, even if to just give development to the show's weakest characters, which are the CM Cs...

[up][up] Just wondering Death: Why do you dislike the idea of one of them getting their mark before the others so much? I know you explained it earlier, but I couldn´t quite understand it.

Twilight tried to give AB a cutie mark. She´s not the strongest BEING in Equestria I don´t think. I bet something that uses evil, more powerful magic could brand the CMC with an evil Cutie Mark

[up][up]I say it again, I'm not agains drama, I even wellcome it , but thing what cause drama would be wallbanger to me.

And CMC are strong characters.

[up]Because if one of them finally understand how you get CM and what her talent is she would explain it to others and they would listen. That would be huge flanderisation or simply character derailment for them if they don't get it .

[up] but they´ve already been told HOW to get their cutie marks by countless people (up to and including Scootaloo´s idol Rainbow Dash) yet they still don´t listen and continue on with their crusade. How you get your mark differs from pony to pony too, so what worked for AB might not work for SB if you understand what I´m saying.

Giving one of them their mark first would be a great way to show that all 3 of them are genuine friends, and their not together simply to look for their cutie marks

I´m just speculating about Discord. Also, Twilight was trying to create a true Cutie mark, I was thinking that discord would just create a fake one

That or there's some inherent magic on that area, preventing it from being tampered with.

But they could listen each other. Key problem what CMC have that they not understand that they need something what they are good in it and enjoy doing it. If AB understand that she like fixing thing and making them look prety she would they SB that she like singing and song writing and she is good in it.

It's good idea for final scene of CMC Arc but not for some episode long drama.

Showing that they are real friends not just because their quest is good idea for story after crusading is over.
