Because now that FIM is super-popular they think they can get a big cash grab.

Have they heard of the Streisand Effect? Or even an Internet Counterattack?

Watch, somehow people are gonna be like "Hey, let's pirate them!"

Especially since EQD posted a download link to the font, meaning everybody in the fandom is going to use it now.

EDIT: Time to sleep.

Sorry, but they can't hear you over the sound of the imaginary dollar signs in their eyes.

Hey guys, how's your Nightmare Fuel page? Large franchises tend to have a lot of trouble with those, so I'm told.

In need of lots and lots of trimming. There's subjective, then there's just stupid.

Season 1 aside from Party of One and the premiere doesn't have an ounce of creepy content, and that's only for sensitive souls.

Alright, one last part of the Neo GAF episode guide to get feedback on: the introduction.

Yes, I'm tickled by the fact that I included a Princess Twilight shot without her wings being clearly visible. Each of the five screenshots is from a different season, by the way.

[up][up] I dunno, Twi being turned to stone when no one quite knew where she was is something I'd say qualifies too. She's just lucky the CMC's reckless idiocy made them stumble upon her.

Okay, that I'll give you, but every episode having multiple entries is ridiculous. And most amount to "well, when you think about it hard enough..."

I definitely agree with that, but i doubt trimming it will get us anything other than an edit war.

Yeah, personally I think there are at most maybe half a dozen moments worthy of inclusion, and that's being generous. But hey, it's extremely subjective and I'm not going to go through the trouble of sorting that out.

Post of the Day #1350

Yeah, the theatrical version cuts a couple important establishing scenes while adding a voiceover that spoils all the surprises out of the film. it also runs about 12 minutes shorter than the director's cut. anyway, I 'm off to have dinner. Later

The Nightmare Fuel page and its friends is always stupid, but it's better to leave it as a sink for the stupidness.

Honestly the entire trope needs a stricter definition and an entire rework of pages, but that's not the thread's job.

@Blissey1: Screw this lawsuit junk, I wanna discuss more this idea of the Princesses + Spike Roleplaying the crap out of evil. That sounds hilarious and almost cute.

Dammit, another corrupted Skyrim save. I guess I'm going to have to go do a thorough mod culling.

Random question: What's the trope where a character confronts his Mean Boss and quits in an over the top manner that can result in the boss being humiliated? You've probably seen it pop up in comedy films, as that's where it's most common. I bring it up since I recently thought of a Reality Ensues take on the idea, and it would be nice to know the name of the trope.

I'm not sure about the humiliation part, but there's Take This Job and Shove It.

There is no beginning. There is no end. There is only... Hooty.

Alright, yeah that's the one I thought of. Basically my idea involves that trope happening, except now the main character can't get a decent job because his boss was the only person he worked for beforehand and thus had as a reference, and said boss isn't exactly going to have nice things to say about him to his would-be employers due to the unprofessional way he quitted his job.

The NeoGAF episode guide, now in album form. The guide is now complete, barring any major complaints. I did notice what you guys said about the indicators for key episodes and the unclear description of "Crusaders of the Lost Mark", but adding text that can modify the layout is really time consuming for our guy actually making the images, and I didn't want to burden him too much for minor changes. At least for the key episodes, I do list them in the description of "Princess Twilight Sparkle".

Look pretty good for the most part.

You consider uploading them on Derpibooru? More people would see them that way.

I'll probably upload them in a day or two. I also plan on sending it over the Equestria Daily. However, this was really just meant to be a group activity for the Neo GAF thread, since I realize fandom growth has slowed down enough that some guy coming in to ask what episodes to watch is rare.

Well, we have a leak the seems to be reveling what Cadance and Shinies baby will be called.

Princess Flurry Heart

That is just, really really really weird sounding, and yet glad they didn't go with Skyla at least.
