The transition team has drafted a new document of Guiding Principles and New Rules for our community. These rules will go into effect on November 25. 2024.
I'm sure you guys have heard me mention Snowblind before, a fanfic set in one of those alternate 'No Sonic Rainboom' realities. The writer recently posted on his FIM-F blog pictures of his stories' (Snowblind and Lunar Eclipse: The Rock Opera)take of the M6 and I thought they were neat enough to share here, especially after the last picture of a Rainboom-less M6 posted in one of these threads. He's also mentioned that while they still hold the Elements, they don't hold the ones they normally do in canon, so see if you can guess who holds what based on the pictures in the box.
I wanted to draw Derpy in an odd pose and it lead to this picture.

So, because of that "Fus-Roh-Yay!" video posted last page...
I chased a damn musical rabbit.
I checked out the guy's Clusterjack video, which lead me to sort of recognize the remix... then I found the video for the remix...
Then I found the original song. (It's Valerie by Steve Winwood if you're curious)
Then I watched the remix video a few more times...
Yeah, I'm pretty sure walking up to The Best Principal and saying, "Hi, you don't know me, and I totally don't go to this school, but you know that expensive-looking crown you found? It totally belongs to me, and I'm actually a magical alicorn princess from another dimension." would have worked swimmingly. Especially in a no-magic setting. Granted, Spike might've been able to give it a little bit of credit...
Pretty sure actually going with the flow with the prom was the path of least resistance. Not like she actually cared about the contest in of itself, but she was using it more of a tool to actually do a bit of good while she was in the Monkey Fleshbeast Dimension.

If I was writing EG, I would have made it so Celestia has to give the crown to you for it to have any effect. You can use any Celestia in the multiverse. That would explain why they have to do the prom thing instead of one of them just stealing the thing.

Yeah. Just a throwaway line about having to 'win' or 'prove yourself' to the crown to get the element of magic to work.

Winning over an entire student body, in a reality you literally just stepped into, with zero local friends already on your side, is the path of least resistance?
Are you high? o_O
Look, forgive me for hating fun here, but even by children's cartoon standards, having Twilight become Prom Queen is just shallow and really trite, and I'm not down with it. Sorry!

When the other option is to get tossed into the looney bin for making outlandish claims such as "I'm a magic pony princess from another dimension and that's my crown", without any proof, yeah, prom queen is the path of least resistance.

I agree, but I still maintain that it's worth getting past that point.
Having an entire plot revolve around a character, who is established as being anal retentively thorough, by having said character just somehow forget a literal realm of options in order to enable the story?
I don't see how taking issue with this is an invalid criticism.
Edit: Regardless, I just can't stand popularity contests at all, which is what it ultimately boils down to, above all else.

Parody of:
Let's Play Final Fantasy 'II' (Ch10 - 5/17/10)
Damn is that cafeteria song catchy as hell.
Also, I didn't mind the ears/wings at the end and cute with making the tails hair extensions.
Man, I totally had it stuck in my head for like a month after seeing it in theaters.
Finally got it out of my head.... And guess what starts playing on Everfree Radio a minute ago?

Also, the dance that went with the songs were good.
About the only thing I felt was super cheesy was the magical girl transformations.
And Spike's last line is great.
Granny Apple is the cook.

Stopped probably around 20 or so minutes in when she decided, instead of just claiming ownership of the crown, to become prom queen instead.
Sorry, but I check out at anything even in the general ballpark of high school popularity contests, let alone literal ones.
It gets better

Too bad Flash Sentry was both so useless and so obvious. Kind of dragged the movie down.
Grey DeLisle?!?!

But oops, that would mean skipping out on the prom. Can't have that!
We could have had Equestrians 11

and you want the movie to be ocean's 11
perhaps you are watching the wrong film
Twilight has literally attempted breaking and entering before, in the show.
Granted, she didn't actually have to sneak in at the time, but that's beside the point. :P
it was a joke
