@fallinwinter Oh? Okay, here it is: http://ur1.ca/5fx6c

@fallinwinter Yeah... must say I was surprised by 'Feeling Pinkie Keen' scoring so highly. And I don't think I was the only one. 'Party of One', 'Suited for Success', 'Sonic Rainboom' and 'Harmony part 2' didn't really surprise me. I must admit, also, that I didn't expect quite such a rapid expression of 'Lesson Zero' love...
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:05:59 UTC from web-
@pawnheart I voted for that, I think it did so well because of how much Pinkie Pie randomness it had. It also introduced Gummy.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:07:28 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter I do rather like that ep, I must say. Its dang entertaining, at the very least, and there's some great Twilight moments. I'm also still somewhat baffled at the sheer volume of hate towards 'Over a Barrel'
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:18:01 UTC from web-
@pawnheart If only the american settlers had had apple pie. They could have avoided all that genocide.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:20:30 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Yeah, yeah, I know! But, c'mon, its a metaphor. Maybe a touch... inelegant, but a metaphor nonetheless. Plus... everyone forgets how funny that ep is.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:21:50 UTC from web-
@pawnheart and it also kinda foresees Series 2 in its 'lets make a summer blockbuster in 22 minutes' aesthetic.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:23:13 UTC from web-
@pawnheart If we're talking about metaphors, my friend said someone was talking about the fact that Celestia didn't need Twilight's lessons "Every Week" was hinting at the fact that we now have to wait bi-weekly for some of the episodes.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:25:47 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter ...well, thats pretty sly! ...also, does anypony else think that Celestia should have apologised to Twi as well, for giving her such an unrealistic schedule for personal growth?
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:27:29 UTC from web-
@pawnheart Dunno. I do however love how she was once again trollestia. "I don't need to send me a letter every week to show that you're a good student." *Implying she's not getting punished* *Friends bust in* "Don't punish her, it's all our faults!" ....."Go on." *Serious face/Trollface*
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:29:37 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter Yeah... but part of me wants to see an endearing reason for her manipulation of the peasants
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:31:26 UTC from web-
@pawnheart Oh, on the topic of Metaphors and things, another "mind blown" moment someone mentioned is that when Discord's hint said "Back where it all began" it was inside the elements of harmony book. Incidentally, the first thing that is shown at the beginning of the first episode is...
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:36:36 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter Yeah! ...all Twilight needed to do was watch ponies with us! ...that would be awesome.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:37:40 UTC from web-
@pawnheart Heck, she doesn't have to watch ponies with me. As long as she's there I could honestly care less.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:38:47 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter Might be creepy watching her own show with bronies as well. 'huh, Twilight, I like how your eyebrow glitches into the middle of your face here!'.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:39:46 UTC from web-
@pawnheart I'd be interested in watching Swarm of the Century with her. Lesson of Zero too. It'd be adorable to see her blushing and embarrassed at how she acted.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:41:12 UTC from web -
@pawnheart I think for any member of the mane 6 watching it with bronies would be creepy. You ever been hit on by a room full of people who aren't even the same species as you before?
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:43:34 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Awww, c'mon, play the gaaaaaaame!
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:44:36 UTC from web-
@pawnheart Pinkie watching herself break the fourth wall. "Oh! That's who I was talking to! Me!"
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:46:21 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark That would be amazing. I honestly think Pinkie would be the only one not really bothered by watching the show with bronies.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:47:46 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter I think Rarity would enjoy the attention.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:49:41 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark ...True. Rainbow Dash might enjoy her "adoring fans" although she'd probably end up bucking all the people swamping her with "Are you a fillyfooler?" and the like.

@fallinwinter Fluttershy sobbing in the fetal position.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:52:14 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark The problem with her is that it'd be an endless feedback loop. The more of a fetal positioned wreck she became, the more the fans would d'awww over her and that would lead to more cowering and so on and so forth.

@fallinwinter ...have you read 'Ponies Discover /co/'?
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:53:38 UTC from web-
@pawnheart Nope. Not to try being rude, but I'd question the...for lack of a better word, "quality" of the story. Is it decent?
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:56:00 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter I understand entirely. It sounds like complete crap. But it is actually pretty damn good... and not overly "adult" either.

@ceruleanspark I'd like to see Twilight and Trixie watch 'Boast Busters' together.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:51:28 UTC from web-
@pawnheart A meta-friendship report might result
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:51:57 UTC from web -
@pawnheart What you do in that situation: 1. Ignore the tv entirely. 2. Film the two of them bickering. 3. Youtube. 4. ??? 5. Profit!
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:53:12 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter OHMYGOSH! I WOULD SHOWER HASBRO WITH BITS TO HAVE AN IN-CHARACTER COMMENTARY FEATURING TRIXIE AND TWILIGHT FOR THE DVD!
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:54:57 UTC from web-
@pawnheart If they don't do this... I may have to assemble some talented fan VAs...
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:56:25 UTC from web-
@pawnheart We should do something like that for @thatonepony's podcast. We could provide rifftrax style commentary to go over the episodes. Or has that already been done?
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:58:19 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Well.. I know Bronycomms have done commentaries for all the eps so far... I mean, it would be frigging awesome if we could get some decent VAs to do a semi-scripted commentary on that, but it'd take some prep. I'd be cool rambling over anything though, as I'm sure many ponies have gathered.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 11:01:07 UTC from web-
@pawnheart Oh, if somepony already did it then the idea is immediately less attractive.

@pawnheart I'd imagine there'd be a whole lot of moments of "What that /that/ Twilight Sparkle? If that were the /Great/ and /Powerful/ Trixie, I would have known that would happen!" ".....Why did I agree to do this?"
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 11:02:44 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter That was supposed to be "What was /that/ Twilight sparkle?"
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 11:03:14 UTC from web -
@fallinwinter Somehow, I think the loaded silences would be almost as amusing as the inevitable jabs.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 11:05:50 UTC from web-
@pawnheart 'Oh... Some ponies love you Trixie... I mean, what about your fans... How are they both by the way?'
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 11:06:55 UTC from web-
@pawnheart I LOVE TRIXIE ;__;

@fallinwinter This thing you are describing is basically the "Of two minds" fanfic.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 11:09:49 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark ...what is this about exactly? (Guessing he'll have to add another fic to his reading list.)
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 11:13:03 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter Trixie botches a mind-switching spell she's trying to demonstrate to Twilight and they both end up resident in Trixie's body for a while whilst Celestia tries to figure out how to reverse the spell. Cue a lot of snarky thought-speech between the two of them.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 11:15:10 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark I enjoyed that fic!
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 11:16:41 UTC from web-
@pawnheart What's the correct title, because the one I gave is obviously wrong?
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 11:18:13 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark I think it's called of two minds. *Probably missing some sort of joke*
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 11:20:22 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark You were right, it's 'Of Two Minds', I'm pretty sure

@ceruleanspark Hmm. Sounds fun. I thought it was a body switching one. This sounds more hilarious. I'll check out the pdf of it and place it on my phone.

@ceruleanspark In all honestly though, unless you put actual insight to the episode itself, it'd probably be easier to just talk about it without the show in the background. It's not really possible to follow what's going on while listening to the conversation.

@pawnheart The Matrix DVD's came with commentary from a pair of philosophers that hated the movies. They're the best commentators ever.

@fallinwinter Or it's to do with the promise of more multipart episodes, which wouldn't necessarily have a moral at the end of every part.

@ceruleanspark 'Will Rainbow Dash stop being an dole? Will Fluttershy learn that, sometimes, you have to look at the big picture in order to help somepony? Join us again next week... different Pony time, same Pony channel.'

@pawnheart I like it, but I'm generally pro genocide as a rule. It has Braeburn and "I'd like to be a tree"
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:23:17 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark ...and 'that's the worst performance we've ever seen'. And a surprisingly sympathetic showing for RD. And a sweet Pinkie song. And 'horses drawing horse drawn carriages' (...I love that!).
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:25:15 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark D= OMG we wouldn't have had Fluttershy's Lament if we didn't have that episode. I'd be depressed.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:26:35 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter It was the first thing I listened to when I got in the car this morning, actually. I'd like to be a tree, tree tree, tree tree.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:27:24 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark It's awesome. All the voice remixed songs prove that Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie are the easiest ponies to autotune.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:30:49 UTC from web-
@fallinwinter Well, Trixie's good side is highly enjoyable, as is Sunshine and Celery Stalks.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:31:29 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Too true. I'm not as head over heels on 'Flutterwonder' as many other ponies seem to be. ...Ahm fahn... Heeyunt Heeyunt.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:32:28 UTC from web-
@pawnheart Weeeeeee Eh, ah ih my, Deep wide bell wonder, deep wide bell wonder, built some, built some eh, ah ih my Deep wide bell ownder, deep wide bell wonder.

@pawnheart Flutterwonder has the excellent Scootaloo~oo bridge though.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:33:52 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark That part was amazing. I kinda wanted an extended part for that. Heck, make a whole CMC autotune song.

@pawnheart Wait, Feeling Pinkie Keen is both fourth-worst and third-best? I don't get it.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:30:50 UTC from web-
@redenchilada Divisive I guess. I'm pretty shocked that 'Dragonshy' got no votes on either side. I thought that was a class episode. Also 'Green Isn't Your Colour' is worse than 'Stare Master' apparently... WHAT?!
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:35:55 UTC from web-
@pawnheart I've made my feelings on the "worst episodes" clear. In all caps. Redenchilada had to moderate me, even.
Wednesday, 19-Oct-11 10:42:33 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark ...I'm intrigued to see this discussion, I must say!
