    3. @Derptastic Thanks for the kind words, Brony! I'm having a lot of fun with this, and you can look forward to an update by week's end, if all goes according to plan.

    4. Not bad, although it didn't pull me in that much. There were a bit too many unknown characters and some of them seemed a bit pointless. Did you really need 6 characters? After three chapters, I don't even know the cutie mark of most of these OC Ponies. A little bit more of Luna and maybe more than just Octavia as a character known to the reader would have helped (though Spitfire wouldn't have worked well with the story, glad you left her out)

    5. I liked the fact that there was an Irish pony (yes, I realise that that is shallow) and really liked the way you worked the slang in. There were a few spelling errors and typos throughout the story, but that really didn't take too much out of it for me. Looking forward to future chapters.

    6. @Acriaos Well, the next couple of chapters are going to have pieces narrated by the other ponies that up to now haven't had the attention I think going through the trouble of introducing an OC in the first place calls for. I can see where you're coming from, believe me. But there's six for a reason, and explaining it now would spoil a rather large plot point I'm working on, although I'm pretty sure you can guess the semantics of it anyway. :)

      @Cony the Pony. Glad you approve. Being a majority Irish myself, I'm looking forward to having more time with him "on screen." Hope you like it.

      I'm not sure what's sadder. That I know exactly who this is or that I laughed.

      Yes, I was going to ask if he was going to come back, good to know that he is. I've just read the other two chapters (I didn't realise there was more than one at first) and I liked them, aside from two small points.

      One, at the end of the second chapter everything goes italicaly for no desernable reason, just a typo I know, but I can't get over it.

      Two, I noticed at least one example of you saying that a pony raised their eyebrow. Ponies, for some reason, don't have eyebrows, as I learnt when writing a fanfic of my own.

      Again, can't wait for more.

    9. @ConythePony The eyebrow thing is weird, considering that expression is used constantly in the show. I guess I'll figure out another way to express that, then. THanks.

      Also, italics were found and corrected like the dirty little criminals they are. That's a known issue with Fanfiction.net, and has to be manually corrected by the author. Pain in the FLANK.

    10. I like the fact that Golddusk suggests giving up. I think that really fits with his character

    14. I am Andrew Rainbow and I'm here to ask you a question: Is a pony not entitled to the sparkle of their own mane?
      No, says Celestia. "It belongs to the palace."
      No, says Celestia. "It belongs to the guards."
      No, says Celestia. "It all belongs to me!"
      I rejected her answers. Instead, I chose something different. I chose the IMPOSSIBLE! I chose
      RAINOPOLIS
      A city where the filly would not fear the spotlight. Where a mare would not be bound to petty slave jobs. Where the great would not be constrained by royalty. And with the sparkle of YOUR mane Rainopolis can become your city as well.

    15. Another FULL set of Elements of equal power to the Elements of Harmony ?

      Why now, it seem that Super-Duper-Artifacts of Doom come by the dozen, now these days...? (does it also mean that there's a dozen Negative Elements too ?)

      ...I guess that's how we are supposed to blow up the world twice ?
      (sigh... by the dozen, literally)

    16. Hurray for maguffins? Cute idea and really enjoying the OCs though it does come across as a little shippy at times it fits the character well.

      Looking forward to seeing more of this.

    21. This fic has earned its 5 stars from me. I have only completed chapter 4 at this point but it feels ... right. Lots of OC ponies that make sense. Each have their own personalities and they don't change. Well written.

    22. Awesome! Luna and Octavia are best ponies for me atm (besides mane 6), so I'm definitely gonna add this to my (rather long) list of fics to read! :)
