It seems as though the consensus is that Twilight should try the remnants of her own potion and become Twilight Sparcow. If there are no oppositions, then let it be so.
Because the question has been raised, and it intrigues me, Cowlight Sparkle, yay or nay?
Them’s Fightin’ Herds - Crowdfund live now!
Stretch Goals
People have been asking us about stretch goals. We’ve been crunching the numbers, making some calculations, and so, we’re ready to announce our first three stretch goals for Them’s Fightin’ Herds. $486,000 - Them’s Fightin’ Herds on Linux and Mac If we manage to raise $486,000 total, Them’s Fightin’ Herds will also be releasing in the Mac and Linux platforms. Backers pledging to the Early Settler and above tiers will be able to choose their favourite platform to receive their game key on!
$546,000 - Additional Character: Goat
If we reach the $546,000 mark, Them’s Fightin’ Herds will get a seventh playable character, including all new character theme and dynamic music system variations!
The almighty Goat, master of balance is determined to be the last standing!
She has seemingly impossible balancing capabilities, allowing her to stand firmly on any steep surface, including walls! Use her magic to run at high speeds across the stage and up walls to rush down and literally walk all over your competition!
$560,000 - Goat Stages/Story Mode
At the $560,000 mark, the goat will get her own stage, lobby stage, and she’ll also get a story mode! - This also includes all new music by our composers for both her fight stage and lobby stage.
And beyond…
So what comes next? We have a few ideas! We would REALLY love to bring Them’s Fightin’ Herds to consoles, we’d like to add even more additional characters to the roster, and expand on the graphical lobby’s features. - We’ll just need to crunch some more numbers and get details on costs. We’ll let you know as soon as we know.
Regarding the new pledge tiers
We’ve had a couple of worried messages from people in the old tiers wondering if their pledge reward is still secure, so we’d like to restate to everyone that yes, your pledge IS secure. The backer count was just reset because we had to modify the description for the Unicorn Wizard tier and to do so, we had to make a new tier. All the people who backed to the old version will be upgraded to the new one without needing to re-pledge to it.
And that’s it for now, but we have more updates to come. Don’t forget to tell your friends and family about the crowdfund campaign and our greenlight campaign as well! - The social media icons in the side of the crowdfund page will help you spread the word.
Thanks to everyone for your support, and let’s continue making Them’s Fightin’ Herds a reality!
Hhhhhgh lets make it a reality please ;n;

We are at 64% with 10/30 days left.
I don´t know if any of you have interest in this topic, but if you have then please help them. Dont make Lauren Faust sad.
I would be greatful for every single donate for the project.

My problem with the episode other than diamond tiara getting redemption way too easily is that the cmc didn’t earn their cutie marks and have shown no proficiency in helping prior to the episode. In the five seasons that have been on, the only time they haven’t helped anyone without being the reason they need help in the first place was that one unlucky guy.
What they have done is almost kill babs, nearly ruin a big opportunity for rarity, destroy a talent show, cause a plague, lie to children and nearly embarrass their entire town during the Olympics.
But they did earn their marks. They have been practicing their talent since their introduction. It isn’t about just helping others, but about helping others understand themselves, and that’s what the CMC have always been about. Their efforts had always been misguided and turned inwards, but what they did to earn their marks is what they have been trying to do since the beginning.
After the bombshells from today’s episode there seems to be some discrepancy and dislike for some of the changes that, personally, I feel fitting. The bulk of the argument tends to center around the reveal at the end of the episode, rather than where it perhaps should.
Well, that was an episode. Holy crap.
I take it the new episode is awesome, and I’m stuck at work. Damn.
No questions for Raricow now that the blogs back and rebooted? Aw.
Egyptian lore is fascinating, in part because of its content and in part because of what it inspired in terms of art, architecture and culture in general. There is so much available for use in the myths of the Egyptian gods, and it’s really under-utilized.
Egypt and its myths are iconic, but underplayed. The only real examples of Egyptian lore being used in modern media that come to mind are in the original series of Yugi-Oh, and the occasional Mummy movie. I would love to see Egyptian myths and gods become more common sources of inspiration like those of the Greeks and Romans (read also Greeks).
