Regarding Rumored Images + CNN Bought Out EQD for Twenty Bucks and a Candy Bar

We are fully aware that there are rumored season two images floating around. We posted two of them before the full scope of the situation was revealed to us, and we do apologize for that. The post will remain.

We will not be posting any more of these rumored images until we get solid confirmation as to their veracity. That's our official policy, and we're sticking to it. Don't read into it any further than that, please!

In other news, we are now owned by CNN for those wondering about the new banner. Yep. Totally not lying. 

EQD out.

Rumor: Season Two Screenshots!

Google plus pony has hidden these after the break to avoid spoilers.  She's such a nice pony.

Also tossed another since its in the comments on the other post anyway! 

Poll Results: What Month Did You Join the Fandom?

That is actually pretty surprising.  Were you all just so bored over the summer that you decided to give pony a shot?  I'm really curious what drew you all in when season two wasn't even actually happening. 

Hit up those comments!

Story: Order from Chaos (Update Story 2!)

[Crossover] Twilight Snarkle has made the impossible happen. You may recognize that image up there as none other than Doctor Robotnik (Or egghead or whatever... though I really dislike the hell out of that name). The Pre-readers have literally turned down 50+ Sonic fanfics over the last few months, so seeing one actually get through is like watching the sun rise after a hurricane.

That being said, the requirement for a Sonic crossover to get through is apparently really high, making this supposedly really good.  So give it a shot before to 1 star it.  

They even gave me a quote:
"5/5. Accepted. Post now. You don't need to write anymore Sonic Crossovers now, people."-Pre Reader "THE LIFE BINDER" 

Author: Twilight Snarkle

Description: A journal recounts a remarkable discovery to Equestria by someone who sought only a little peace.

[Normal]

Author: Municipal Engines, Assisted By LordOfTheWrongs

Description: For almost a thousand years, the immortal Nightmare Moon has reigned over Equestria as Empress. To the average pony, Nightmare Moon is an overarching enigma whose rule is absolute and whose wrath is terrible. But to Twilight Sparkle, who as an orphan has never known her parents, the Empress is something else entirely. When the young unicorn is brought under the royal wing as an apprentice, she learns a great deal more about the supposed tyrant than she ever knew. But as Twilight is introduced to life with her new mentor, she is thrust into a world of political intrigue, conspiracies and secrets. Secrets that were never meant to be revealed. As allies and enemies plot against the very peace of the nation, will Twilight fall prey to the perils of her new position? Or will she prosper and find in Nightmare Moon the mother she never had?
