Yeah, it only stretches if you're an idiot that doesn't know how to properly embed URL's.

I see bans in the future if this continues.

Sorry for starting that then. Would posting the ascii Mandlebrot set still be ok?

Someone mentioned spamming them in the Skype chat.

@Applelight: Joke from the skype chat about spamming smilies.

Also, did you see my announcement about your fic? It's just about finished.

I have a feeling this won't work because it requires a fixed width font to display properly, but it's worth a try.

Edit: wow that turned out even worse than I expected

And there aren't enough different smileys to render hte Mandlebrot set in it's true glory anyway.

Yeah, but then I can't force line breaks, because this forum is stupid about those for some reason.

#239442 Japanese Teeth Sat, 30th Jun '12 6:04:54 PM from Meinong's jungle

It's a type of fractal, if I'm thinking of the right thing, which I probably am not. That's fancy mathematics.

What is the Mandlebrot set?

It's a famous fractal. If noone minds I can try posting it in smileys. Ascii won't work on the forums though.

Saw it when I back tracked. Can't wait!

Though I can't pay you until Monday.

Isnt the mandelbrot set the one that kinda looks like spiders or bugs? Piers Anthony wrote about worlds that were arrayed in a Mandelbrot pattern I think.

@Applelight: Yeah, that's fine. I can just leave it set. Although you should know that it's still first draft quality.

But on the other hand, it's also about twice as long as I originally planned. At the moment it's around ~10000 words. Since Welovefine accepts paypal, I can use the cash to finally buy a pony shirt.

Oh, that's a lot of Pinkie.

And please show the shirt when you get it!

#239448 Japanese Teeth Sat, 30th Jun '12 6:10:33 PM from Meinong's jungle

There's also a lot of Applejack.

For some reason she ended up being Pinkie's accomplice. I probably could have pushed the fatness a bit more; if you want more fat Pinkie in the story I might be able to tweak it a little after the fact.

Also, a Mandelbrot set looks like this.

Yeah, I'm planning on getting this one

because 1. It has the whole cast on it, and 2. It looks pretty awesome and is less likely to get me mocked. I have to admit that I was sorely tempted by this one

though.

Hmmm...maybe a little more fatness.

#239450 Bluespade Sat, 30th Jun '12 6:12:24 PM from Texas

Pinkie is way too hyper and active to get fat. Maybe a little chubby.

Of course if a real person ate like she does, they'd just die.
