For me, the on character I don't care for alot is spike. I don't really hate spike I just have no feelings for him. Despite him being in the show from the very beginning and the fact he was vital during key moments, i always ending feeling pretty meh about him and just forget about him. He's just not the reason I watched the show. Are there any characters you ferl apathetic about?
Who is your favorite princess?!
This is the thread for discussing anything pertaining to Fanfiction in general. Like your ideas, thoughts, what you're reading, etc. This differs from my Fanfic Recommendation Link-Swap Thread, as that focuses primarily on recommendations. Every week these two threads will be posted at alternate times.
Although, if you like, you can talk about fics you don't necessarily recommend but found entertaining.
IMPORTANT NOTE. Thanks to /u/BookHorseBot (many thanks to their creator, /u/BitzLeon), you can now use the aforementioned bot to easily post the name, description, views, rating, tags, and a bunch of other information about a fic hosted on Fimfiction.net. All you need to do is include "{NAME OF STORY}" in your comment (without quotes), and the bot will look up the story and respond to your comment with the info. It makes sharing stories really convenient. You can even lookup multiple stories at once.
Welcome everyone to the next round of
The weekly thread where you throw down some fanfiction into the comments below.
All you have to do is write in a scene, a short story, or even just an idea. If you're dry on ideas, try the ones from previous weeks.
If you can't write but have ideas, go ahead and post it anyway!
Worried about quality? There's no bar for entry, just post away!
So get down there and make it happen!
Bonus: Pegasi get "interesting" come springtime...
P.S. Last Week, we had Screwball, and awakening powers!
/u/Torvusil requested that I submit this week's rendition of this thread.
So, because it's No-Pics Thursday (28 May 2020) today, you know what that means...
It's time for the Weekly Fanfic Recommendation LINK-SWAP Game thread to continue!
Anyways, THE RULES (read 'em carefully):
Post a link to a fanfiction you like (can be your own as well - it's okay to self-promote), with or without a short blurb.
Important: Reply to someone else's post with a link to a fanfiction you think they might like, based on their choices.
Put each of your choices in a separate post if you want to make sure to get a recommendation based on each one. You may reply to someone else's reply, either to you or to someone else. Please make long discussion threads, they introduce a healthy bit of exploration and can help us find new interests! And that's it!
PLEASE COMPLETE BOTH STEPS 1 and 2. Don't just show up and ask for recommendations if you're not willing to provide any. I'll start the first few threads myself, and reply with a gentle reminder if you forget.

Can somebody tell me what in celestia's name is the rainbow factory?
In the Equestria Girls short Rise Up! Sunset Shimmer beats Twilight in a game of chess.
Sunset plays Queen b1, forcing Twilight to resign. In actuality Twilight could have blocked the queen's advance with her bishop and continue the game. She would be at a disadvantage, but considering how bad both players are (unsafe kings, bad white rook/knight positions, fractured pawn structures), Sunset would have a reasonable chance of making a mistake and Twilight wouldn't. I would say Twilight conceded too early.
But what if I put this game on Lichess? What does Stockfish think about Sunset's move? It turns out Qb1 wasn't the best move Sunset could have played, and that Rook c1 would have forced the game to end in 10 turns:
1... Rc1+ 2. Bd1 Qc4 3. Nf6+ Kf7 4. Ra1 Rxa1 5. f3 Rxd1+ 6. Kf2 Rxd2+ 7. Ne2 Qxe2+ 8. Kg3 Kxf6 9. Rg1 Qh2+ 10. Kg4 Qxg1+ 11. Kf4 Rb4# 0-1
Three turns in Twilight has to give up her rook (Ra1 Rxa1) to simply prolong the game, at which point even a novice player would reasonably concede.
Hi there! It's Thursday again and that means another chance to talk about what's been happening around here and how you feel about it!
Same as every other time, feel free to discuss whatever it is you'd like regarding our little subreddit good or bad. If you're unhappy we'll try our best to fix whatever problem you're having!
If you want to talk about the MLP fandom in general, that's fine too!
But some people may not want to talk about comics or anything else that hasn't happened yet, so you should be nice and hide those conversations from those people by using the spoiler tag.
If you don't know how it's as easy as making an emote:
>!It has ponies!!<
And if you're not wanting to discuss the subreddit or community specifically you can also check out the weekly off-topic thread that will be up at noon Pacific time!!!!
