@ CDRW, how are the "obviouly based off of" those if they have nothing in common other then replacing a pony? Which is the standard infiltration tactic of ALL Changleing no matter what?
Changeling is just being used as the generic name for any creature that can change it's form.
Build a fool proof system, and the world will create a better fool.

We actually have a trope for that first usage. Changeling Tale.
Speaking of Changelings, someone needs to add this episode to the Changeling Tale page now.
Ninja'd
Though, It really depends on whether there has to be a child being replced for it to count, I guess.

Shit, I just realized that Shining Armor being captain of the guard changes everything in my story.
The internet is the realm of chaos, but not all chaos is evil.

Oh my god I can't believe no one has mentioned this yet. We now have an explanation for all the duplicate background ponies. No one is safe. This guy knows what's up.

Well, recently started the finale. Hope I don't get spoilered too much...
I was kind of shocked by the Force Field and loved Rarity's fainting. Though I do wonder why Cadence was foalsitting.
Eh, I'll find out later. Have to go mulch now...
EDIT:...CADENCE'S POWERS ARE AWESOME!!!!!

@Crowfall o_O That actually makes sence, or at least is the only logical explanation.

@CD: Yeah, I know the feeling. Depending on how it happens chronologically, This is a bit of a problem for TCYB's Iron being the captain... Well, at least we didn't see Blueblood so I can claim it happened in between all this.

@ Kegisak: And I just started it. I can't not take this new info into account. This is going to take some tricky world-juggling to seamlessly work into my story without breaking it because my OC captian of the guard is sort of a VERY IMPORTANT CHARACTER. The Changelings have a lot of potential though. Very good for the mysterious and paranoid aspects.
Edit: I love all the rape faces Cadance makes during her villian song.

@Bad Also, the brief reprise
"Contests fought between two masters are decided instantly. An invisible battle is now raging between the two of them." Lulu vs Schneizel
#165869AllikSat, 21st Apr '12 12:30:15 PMfrom Oh you know where
I will restate my question once more: Just curious, does anyone know if they will be livestreaming Bro N Ycon?.
And I also must speculate, if Sibsy can have her Pony avatar show up can the other people who work on the show and have their own Pony persona's show up? Hell does this mean that Lauren Faust's alicorn could, one day down the line, make an appearance?
I don't know if many people on the show have their own pony avatars. Or if they do they aren't as well known. Sibsy and Fausticorn are the only ones I know of. I don't think I want Faust's alicorn to actually show up, but a nod to her would be really neat, like maybe she has a stained glass window in the throne room or something.

Okay... after listening to it on loop for about an hour, I have managed to immunize myself to the big brother song. this is a good thing, as despite listening to it on repeat for an our I still adore it.

I think the queen has an adorable little giggle

Well that was pretty awesome. Great solo songs from Twilight, a legitimately threatening villain with an equally fantastic Villian Song, some pretty funny moments.
Much better than what I was expecting.
@ Ginger: I love that reprise so much. Full of menace, even more than the first one. The design of the Changelings was great as well.
@ Alik: I don't know for the first bit. And I hope not for the second bit.
Damn, I can't claim Trixie is the second most powerful Unicorn we've seen anymore. Though Shining Armour could only do that one spell.
