My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
Spoiler
Trixie's Great and Powerful Guide v1.94f
Fridge Edition
Brief Introduction
SpoilerMy Little Pony: 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.

ATTENTION EVERYPONY!!!
Great & Powerful Trixie made a bet. A bet I'll procure 12 pictures of Trixie - like the one in my sig, of similar quality - before next weekend. Trixie cosplaying, doing weird stuff, finding herself in unusual situations. So! I need ideas! Sketches of Unicorn ponies (I'm willing to vectorize them for free if they're good enough)! Moments from the show showing ponies with unusual poses and/or designs I could use to inspire myself! Finally, if someone would also like to draw something, I'd be glad to repay in some manner :P
Any takers?

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
Woah, brand new pony thread. And I haven't been following the previous one at all past the first 5 or so pages. You guys move way too fast for me.
Oh well, let's start a new discussion. Spoiler tags because it's based on Snips Snails and Dragon's tails, but I really didn't spoil anything directly, I just want to be extra careful.
SpoilerSo, if there were an Underdark version of ponies, what would they look like? Would they all resemble Luna or Nightmare Moon? Would they have some kind of modified glow in the dark cutie marks?

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
Dang, I got ninja'd by a new thread. That...that hurts. I'm crying on the inside.
Anyway, reposting from last thread:
Oof. I know I didn't post as much as I lurked, but this sprint was fun. Certainly proved that we could finish off a thread in two days if we were organized and free.
@Esper: My goodness there had better be more creepy where that came from. I'm intrigued.
@LixXAorts: It occurs to me that this pairing...does not have an adorable nickname! For shame! Scandal! Preposterous! GET TO IT PONYTHREAD! In the meanwhile....
*munches popcorn*
@Trixie: When you have the time, do you think you could put my story The New Moon Wanes in the "GitP Fics" section? Thank you!
EDIT: And I got ninja'd, by Trixie, asking for links to fics. This is getting ridicul-wait a minute, what's this?
*removes "ninja me!" sign from back*

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
We don't need one because there isn't a pairing!!!
Also, given Lix's apparent predilictions, I'm not sure "pairing" is the accurate term...
Not that it matters because it isn't an issue, thanks to my brilliant piece of bribery!
I'd call it Ble-
Oh hell, no you don't!!!

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
Repost from last thread. (plus an extra response)
Alright everypony, we can figure this out. We'll just need to do some detective work. Firstly we'll need to compile a list of every pony that might have a reason to kidnap Midnight. Let's see, it could be a stalker pony that pines for Midnight from afar, or perhaps somepony trying to get a ransom for the daughter of Princess Luna. Maybe somepony wants revenge on Midnight for certain events not necessarily limited to the Midnight Mare incident. All in all, that means that our list of suspects could include...
*looks at sheet, and throws it on the ground*
Everypony! That didn't narrow it down at all! Except Lyra, we know that she didn't do it.
Well, we still have one other important clue. The culprit has green eyes...
I, too enjoy the sock puppets. It has just the right combination of ponysanity and adorableness.
I'd imagine that Underdark versions of ponies wouldn't have a single set color, but their fur colors might generally range from purple, to dark blue, or black. I'd say that unlike on the surface, where pink and white is extremely common and Black was a unique color, Underdark ponies would be exactly the opposite.
I don't think that they'd have glow in the dark cutie marks, but there would probably be some sort of difference in their eyes because they are much better at seeing in the dark.
Edit: Also, random thought for the name of thread #30: My Little Pony XXX: It's not that kind of thread.Last edited by Vent Reynolt; 2011-08-04 at 12:09 PM.

That's new to me! Spifflicate is an awesome word :O What does it mean? Do I even want to know?
Wait, are you saying that this isn't Luna and Nightmare Moon? 'cos NMM has green eyes and Luna is a pony whose name "belonged to the night".
