Glaar. First pass at table for Jalyrkieons and Cybertanks for the Worlds in a couple of weeks. That took freaking ages.
Trouble is, I, as usual, am probably trying to be far too clever, so I'll actually need to go and double-check the amount of hex terrain and physically count all the pieces of the various types, because, if my current records from last year are not 100% accurate, I will have to do some serious redesign as - for once - there's no room for play; the map is THAT CLOSE.

This is flawed reasoning because extended mental illness obviously does not always lead to murder, but people get uncomfortable with mental illness in general and tend to extrapolate incorrectly, so it's not surprising.
It should be noted that cupcakes and it's ilk predate Party of One, by a large enoug margin that this justificatoion doen't work.

Oh! and we still haven't found a frame to put that Starbucks pony up in, but Braz is still looking!

As it is, well...
A self defeating argument.
Either Pinkie Pie is just a very expressive pony, who isn't actually assuming mystic properties with every personality shift, or;
Pinkie Pie is an example of cartoonish exageration, and cannot be taken factually when she does these things.
Also, what' so horriying about stopping time?

Pinkie Pie doesn't exist, therefor cupcakes CANNOT happen; it is written from Rainbow Dash's point of view, and she would be able to tell if Pinkie were actually psycho Twilight.

Or that a frustrated psycho Twilight launched sponges into the air randomly and telekinetically, which would, being about as obtrusive as her own shadow, startrle Fluttershy.

Hey, your Avatar Changed! And yeah, I'll give the new seasons a try, what the hell.
I'll respond to the rest of your comment in just a bit, BlasTech. My School Day is almost over, so I've only got a bit of time to finish before driving, since I can't communicate while driving.
My FINAL FLASH Wall of Text is almost finished Charging being written.
*grumble*grumble*stupid blindbags never seem to appear over here*moan*gripe*complain*
I sympathize; I have to drive a good half-hour to find the one store that might carry blind bags, and both times I've tried they haven't had any.

Anyway, Boffie, let's see that serum. I'll see if I can't round up some villagers volunteers to test it.
Serum? Oh, it's nothing so primitive as that. You see, I've encapsulated the retrovirus in heat-resistant spores which I can slip into either sugar or flour, thus allowing me to deliver it via baked good.
On totally unrelated note, I'd like you to have these cupcakes I baked for you. *portals basket of baked goods to Dive Bomb*

Him in Chrysalis. He's snaggle-toothed, and Chrysalis' hooves are full of cavities.

It involves a wedding. With Pinkie and some other colt I can't figure out yet.

Don't worry, that was failed batch #167. The physical restructuring works fine, but the genetic programming for the mental alterations hadn't been perfected. The increase in IQ comes with a total shorting out of magical abilities, after which the subject is rendered about as magical as a common earth pony. The meltdown should be observable in the subject as a massive migraine headache in about 3...2...1...

Blunt, put the highly suspicious baked goods on the counter, and then go see if you can't round up some volunteers. Tell them it's free muffins; we don't want any smart alicorns in our base...

Princess Platinum, it all makes sense now! :<
Well, said background pony does have two main interpretations; Colgate the Dental-Pony or Romana the Timelord Pony.
It does, indeed, make perfect sense.

Straightening your teeth via dentistry is an imposition of order upon natural disorder. In this case, it would almost be like a ritual thing, taking the spirit of Order into yourself as protection against Discord.
Following that logic, imposing Pony-control on things could act as a way of weakening Discord, insulating Ponyfolk and their land from his predations.
Say, by severing the natural cycles of the weather and putting Ponies in active control of it instead...
On the subject of the Marriage of Pinkie-Pie;
As I have no idea of the context, or themes you're trying to evoke, I can't really suggest an alternative event as such.
However, I would suggest sticking to existing characters for the possibles if nothing else. That doesn't leave you with many colts to pick between, whether that's a problem or not is your call as you are the one who's going to be writing this. If you aren't bothered by who she's paired with because the wedding is what's important rather than who it's to, I would suggest instead going with whatever the most widely supported Pinkie-Ship is.
