    Default My Little Pony XCIV: It's A Working Title!



    Trixie's Great and Powerful Guide v2.0!
    Working Edition


    Brief Introduction

    Spoiler
    Show
    MLP: Friendship Is Magic is a reboot of the MLP franchise by Powerpuff Girls artist Lauren Faust, currently viewed by (almost) the entire Internet, not only the intended audience. Here is a place where we discuss the joy of friendship.

    > My Little Pony? Seriously?

    It's a clever show. It has excellent writing, character dynamics, humor, animation, and generally treats kids seriously rather than condescending to them. It has every right to be a 20 minute corporate committee designed infomercial, but it's not.

    > Isn't this a show for little girls?

    Pixar technically makes shows for little boys, and produce some of the best animation in the world.

    > Okay, fine. I'll give it a try. Where do I start?

    No Brony could ask for more. I recommend watching the episodes in order. They're all up on Youtube. Unusually, Hasbro seems fine with having the entire series up in public because they've made no move to bring down any of the episodes. Search for "Friendship is Magic Episode 1" and you should find the series pretty easily... Or search for "Sharing is Magic" Google Doc. That is all.

    > Okay, I'm going to watch it but this had better live up to the hype!

    Whoa, calm down there. The show is light hearted, optimistic fun but it's not for everyone. It's good fun, the community is good fun, and everyone can do with a reminder that friendship is magic but if it doesn't gel for you we'll love and tolerate you anyway. Plus, you might hit the wrong episode. Ask first?

    > Iron Hoof/Fan Theories/Shipping/Binding

    All in good fun! If it's not your cup of tea, skim it, but this show has triggered a great creative outpouring from the Internet. Pony themed fan-art is abundant and often excellent. See below for some examples.

    > Derpy Hooves/Doctor Whoof

    Two minor background characters who were adopted as emblems of 4chan. Derpy Hooves is so named due to an animation error in the first episode that had her eyes facing in different directions; 4chan has assigned her the role of Ponyville's mailpony, and her only line so far has been "Muffins". The show's animators are aware of Derpy's popularity and she's shown up a few times recently with her eyes obviously derped. Currently made canon in Feeling Pinkie Keen and in Faust's picture showcased below, Derpy was deemed important enough to appear in storyboards for Season II.

    Dr. Whoof is a pony with an hourglass cutie mark; he and his kin save time and space very quietly off camera.

    Deadly's Ironically Presented Anti-Spoiler Measures

    Spoiler
    Show
    DO YOU HATE SPOILER TAGS?

    Well, Deadly's here to help you get rid of them... with a vengeance! [UPDATED] Create a new bookmark in your browser and copy the code below as the link/url of said bookmark. Name it something helpful, like "Spoilers B GONE!" or whatever. Then whenever you view a thread here on GitP you just hit the bookmark and BAM! no more spoilers.

    New, slightly compressed one-line version:
    Code:
    javascript:(function(){var a = document.getElementsByTagName('div');var b;for (var i = 0;i < a.length;i++){if(a[i].className == 'quotecontent'){b = a[i].getElementsByTagName('div');for (var j = 0;j < b.length;j++){b[j].style.display = 'block';}}}})();
    The Stylish solution by Excession. It's somewhat more elegant, provided you're willing to install a browser plugin:

    Code:
    @namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);
    
    @-moz-document domain("giantitp.com") {
      div.quotecontent > div {
        display: block !important;
      }
    }

    3D printing could be a good way to make the end caps. I'm not sure of the best way to keep the rope tight. Maybe a knot in the right place that you can hook over something on the handle end. It might help to have part of the rope be a bungee cord so there's some give in it.

    They're usually made of aluminum or carbon fiber. I don't know if you can buy them singly or if you would need to buy an actual tent, but they would serve your purposes perfectly. (And if you get a tent, now you have a tent you can use! Win-win.)

    If you really want to make it yourself, I would recommend working with aluminum in a metal shop. Cut 10 lengths of 1' tube, and narrow one end of each so that they nest inside the wider end. Cap the ends and run bungee cord through the whole thing.


    Got around to watching the new episode. I loved it. I enjoyed the music, I enjoyed Twilight's Pinkie Voice, I enjoyed Starlight (and Frostfall), I enjoyed Old Timey Vinyl Scratch, and I enjoyed the Christmas Carol//How the Grinch Stole Christmas mashup. I can see why such a thing might put people off, but I am not one of those people.

    Trixie I agree with Pendulous. This has crossed the line from a prank to just mean-spirited. The joke is dead edit the title to what was actually voted please.

    Siding with Pendulous and Spamotron. This is just cruel.

    And now for something completely different, can we name a minor league baseball team? "Rocking Horses," "Rumble Ponies," "Stud Muffins," and "Timber Jockeys" all refer to carousels or carousel horses.

    I know that's a tentpole. Unfortunately I can't find one that's ten feet long that breaks into segments that fit in my bag. Usually they're longer in both respects.

    I have to agree here. The thread title is just spiteful and mean now. It's not funny.

    At this point, I'd just suggest Rater makes the next thread at a random point between page 40 and 49 just to make sure the title gets used. He can do that with my blessing.

    Also agreed concerning the title.

    While I think that the pancake reference has passed its time you are still ignoring the vote and snubbing all the people who voted (Including the ones who voted against it since you are saying that their vote is also worthless).

    Adding a gloating post to the end of the previous thread? Well, that's never going to paint you in a good light.

    Those are some really stupid names. "Gobblers" is just ripe for jokes. "Stud Muffins" is a term I don't think they know the definition of. "Bullheads" is the only one that doesn't make me cringe.

    Last season, Twilight fell asleep in her pancake breakfast and when called woke up and said "I'm pancake!"

    That inspired the tittle in question.

    I am become Pancake won the vote, but another title was chosen over it despite having lost the vote. I pointed this out, but the title was not changed.

    I have been suggesting "Pancake" in every thread title since.

    It won the vote again, but it was close and was still chosen over. That would have been the previous thread.

    I am (finally) become Pancake won the vote in a landslide this time...and still wasn't chosen.

    Well... It's a minor league team. It will be competing against fearsome foes such as the Yard Goats, the Rubber Ducks, the Flying Squirrels, the Biscuits or the Blue Wahoos. The spectators don't care since they're attending the games to have a light-hearted jolly old afternoon, and the players don't care because they're trying to get out of double-A anyway.

    That said, I can't help but feel this poll should be restricted to Binghamtoners. Or, at the very least to Mets fans. At least they didn't allow write-ins. "Baseball McBaseballface" would've been a shoo-in otherwise.

    It's not about ego or being sore that the high and holy sanctimonious voting process of PonythreadTM is being ignored, to my mind. It's that Trixie decided to change the title for no other apparent reason than "I want to **** around with Rater." It's not funny, it's not okay, it's not cool, and it deserves to be called out as exactly what it is: a cruel "Screw you" to a guy who's been waiting for close to a year now.

    Then post the thread before she does. There's this weird cult going on where only one person can post the OP to the new ponythread. That's not the case. If you want ponythread to have a certain title then post the new ponythread before the person with the wrong opinions does. Declare it a reign of terror party hour in your honour. If you have a disagreement with a forum poster use the ignore list and report functions rather than getting mad on the internet. Personal experience suggests that nothing good has ever come from getting mad on the internet.

    As we've seen more than once, this approach is going to lead to chaos, disagreements and multiple competing threads, which is really f'ing annoying and probably going to end up with Ponythread banned by the admins.

    I like the voting process, but I agree that the "only one person makes the threads" tradition is dumb and should be abandoned. I'm in favor of saying whoever suggested the winning title gets to make the new thread, I think that's fair and reasonable.

    Didn't that cause a huge kerfluffle and a fight with Trixie in the past? And I don't want a situation where people are throwing out multiple pony threads so that they get the title they want. The current system works and is mostly drama free, except when Trixie does stuff like this.

    Where do you think Discord is? We haven't seen him in this season yet. I sure hope he's not gone.

    Trixie: could you please update the "Past Threads" section in the first post?

    I think that would be a bad idea, because it might not be clear which title won or how we count them or who counts them, and because whoever suggested the winning title might not be around. If you want to change the system, then some reasonable choices could be: (A) Spamotron gets to make the thread, because he's a regular so he'll probably be around when the new thread has to start, among the regulars he's been around for the longest time (which is as objective a criteria as it gets), and he just complained about the title so he probably cares enough that we can make him take this task, or (B) DigoDragon gets to make the thread, because he's a regular, a thread first post needs a nice pony image, and Digo posts the highest number of pony images.

    I am skeptical of any solution that relies on community consensus given that this is a problem originally caused by someone ignoring the community consensus.

    Nope. Even if it did it shouldn't have because are you kidding me, who would get in a fight over who posted the ponythread.

    And I don't want a situation where people are throwing out multiple pony threads so that they get the title they want. The current system works and is mostly drama free, except when Trixie does stuff like this.
    History has shown if someone makes a secondary ponythread it gets merged into the eldest ponythread and the person who posted the thread first wins the title. This is the only system that can function in this environment. The battle is strong, the race is to the swift and the ponythread title is to whoever posts the ponythread first.

    This endless cycle of suffering has repeated since ponythread began. It is procedural, tribal nonsense. We must free ourselves from it if we are to move forwards.

    Agreed on this shouldn't be an issue, but we are having this conversation despite that

    Regardless, I just want ponythread transitions to take place with a minimal of drama. So count me in for whatever method gives me that.

    My boss is sixty. She's lovely, she just made me a permanent staff member.

    I think she would sincerely question that decision if I had to explain to her why my friends on the internet are angry.

    I have a house and a mortgage. Don't make me lose my job ponythread.

    To move beyond a time of tribal collapse we need a period of raw individualism. It is spiral dynamics.

    Does she know about Ponythread?
