Well, the Subtle Knife isn't too subtle, either.

In fact, that's the book where the Author Tract bits were starting to get aggravating.

I thought it was the idea that the knife was so sharp that its cuts were impossibly smooth. Subtle, if you will.

Maybe it's because I didn't know about the other name until later. I read the boo, and quickly twigged to the meaning of the title after the Alethiometer was introduced.
I have a message from another time...

Speaking of haters I know some people who have emotional breakdown because of posted pony picture.

Technically, the compass refers to the thing used to draw circles. The names come from a poem.

Still don't like that they portrayed the answer to the riddle as being logical. But other than that I like it.

Fun start is a good start.
Everything's been done. Everything has a meaning. However your life at best is to serve as a building block for others.

It wasn't MEANT to be a riddle it was just him fucking with them.

And yet it's played that Twilight was solving the riddle when she found the Elements not just blindingly searching.

They should make an episode where Applejack ends up having her Brutal Honesty go through a Deconstruction. Say she hurts a number of feelings with her B.H., and she ends up finding out that honesty is not always the best policy. So she tries going in the opposite direction, but she takes it too far. In the end, she realizes that she needs to balance out honesty and dishonesty. idea

Hey, if they made an episode that had Fluttershy trying to be more assertive, why not make an episode that has Applejack trying to figure out when to tell the truth and when to tell a lie? grin

"Where you began" AKA "Where all six of you first joined together as a group." Seems pretty obvious to me.

She ain't brutally honest all day, everyday. See Show Stoppers and The Last Roundup.

She's more Honest in terms of being straightforward and keeping to her word and principles.

She's also a really bad liar, when she's forced to.

@ Lurker: And the twists and turns?

It makes far more sense to be the Everfree Castle. The Everfree Forest is basically a maze and the Castle is where they became the Elements of Harmony.

Hey, if they made an episode that had Fluttershy trying to be more assertive, why not make an episode that has Applejack trying to figure out when to tell the truth and when to tell a lie?

only if its not telling a lie so much as not telling the whole truth. But yeah, that would be a neat episode.

Rainbow and Spike are the brutally honest ones, not AJ.

@Bad Remember who is giving the riddle here. Metaphorically, "twists and turns" could mean near anything. In fact, the very fact that they took it at face value was what led to Discord being able to toy with them so easily.

Tigger, yeah AJ knows when not to say what's on her mind, she won't lie about it, but she won't just come out and say something she knows will hurt another ponies feelings. that's RD's job, though even then it's more because she doesn't stop to think about how it could hurt there feelings, not that she doesn't care if it does.

Also, random pet peeve. It always bugs me whenever people refer to the mane 6 as if they themselves are the Elements of Harmony, rather than their bearers. Of course it's all fanon when it comes to what exactly it means to bear an Element, so you could make a case for them being the physical representations of the Elements themselves. It just bothers me a bit.

I wouldn't mind if they said in the show that the riddle makes no sense but they don't. They say Twilight got it wrong the first time and right the second time. And her treehouse wasn't the place they first came together as a team, that was just outside the Everfree and the first time they were physically together was Town Hall.

And Twilight does say in "The Elements of Harmony" that they represent the Elements, not that they bear them.

@Perpetual Lurker: I know what you mean, but I give it a pass mostly due to prevalence.

Well, they began looking for the elements in that book, didn't they? Granted, they were looking for info on the elements in the book, but still.

And "twists and turns" were his master plan. That is, it was his plan to tricking them into going into the maze.
