I liked how Cheerilee got more screentime, too. And they introduced Lickity Split and Junebug, who seem nice.
And then of course we get some neat mythology, explaining why dragons keep hoards.
Oh, and Twilight can also remotely teleport others in addition to teleporting herself, levitating massive objects (Ursa Minor, apple field, and Tom), conjuring moderately-sized objects (a door), mind-control (the bird she whistled with in Winter Wrap Up and the Want-It-Need-It spell), animation (the plough in Winter Wrap Up), and TURNING HER PARENTS INTO GODDAMN PLANTS.
Twilight is best pony.

You mean Twilight is most OP pony.
Pinkie Pie can:
Cook.
Party.
Sing.
Dance.
Party.
Scheme.
Party.
Assault people with cakes.
Intercept Twilight's Ability to Teleport Other Things.
Did I mention Party?
Reach places faster that Rainbow Dash with no apparent explanation.
Are you sure I said Party?
And Break the Fourth Wall!
SHE IS THE GREATEST PONY EVER!

Pfff...
Twilight is my nearest friend, whoopee, whoopee,
The digest, smartest, all-around best pony, pony,
I bet if I throw her a super-duper fun party, party,
She'll give her extra ticket to the Gala to meeeeeee!
Even Pinkie admits it.
(Morec, Horse of Rivenmare totally should do a crossover with Pinkie/Pinkamena).

That was her displaying her ability to Scheme. Be exceptionally nice to Twilight and said OP pony would give Pinkie her extra ticket to the Gala!
Besides, Twilight shares her name with a certain series of books.
(( That would be amusing, wouldn't it? ))

Okay,
episode 11
review time (thar be spoilers):
I'm most impressed with the lore they've started to push into the story, it verifies a belief I have that if you're going to make a world you might as well go full-hog and write out every aspect of it. Kudos to the writers. Also, they went with a double Derpy cameo. Nice job animators. What I'm confused by, though, is why the pony tribes planted a flag that depicted Celestia and Luna when they had nothing to do with it and were never even mentioned (in terms of the play's dialouge).
The best I can think of: the two pictured are some kind of pony deities, and Celestia and Luna are/resembled said deities. That would have allowed them to claim domination over the three pony tribe with minimal bloodshed, leading up to the pony-dragon war which resulted in the obliteration of dragon kind except for a few eggs which are hatched and used as slaves by the unicorn ponies.
Really, all of the above is just me having a laugh and writing whatever came to the top of my head. Everything after the speculation of deity origin/resemblance, that is.
All that left to say:
Fluttershy was adorable in the begining of this.
Twilight: PIIIIINKKKKEEIIIIII!
Pinkie Pie as the leader of the earth ponies is the best leader of the earth ponies.
And British Spike is the best Spike.
EDIT: Oh, and the character Twilight Played totally did that flaming purple heart spell on her own. Proving that unicorn ponies are the dominant ponies.
Except for over Pinkie Pie
. Pinkie Pie is all ponies rolled into one in the shape of an earth pony.
Also just realized that fact that it was a purple heart. A salute to the soldiers? Probably not.
EDIT:
MLP meets Transformers
. The idea seems completely insane - and it is - but the entire series isn't that bad. Definately ammusning.

I so have to watch the Twilight Ghost when it comes out! But the Pinkie Pie one was the best for sure.
Also: Damn it Fluttershy! My cold black heart dosn't even have time to start refreezing when you're around!
Also also:
If Twilight had snapped just a few scenes earlier

Twilight Ghost
is out, I don't think it's better than Pinkie Thor but its definately very, very funny.
Makes me wonder what the others besides the Mane 6 would be, though...

But the episodes are still on Youtube and iTunes. :) And EqD is still awesome.

Starting Past Sins. Finished with the prologue, and so far, it's freakin' epic.

Confound these ponies! They drive me to only get four hours of sleep! :(
This story should have a warning label. It's more addicting than super-heroin.

Finished Past Sins last night. That fan-fic was better than many novels I've read.

Had Rarity been in Nightmare Night, it probably would have gone something like this.
SPOILERS AHEAD
On the more important pony-related note,
episode 12, family appreciation day
, has released. It was pretty good, still not a Pinkie Pie episode, sadly, and even worse not a single Pinkie Pie scene in it. Heck, wasn't even any of the mane cast in it aside from Applejack, and even her role was limited.
The writers have seemed to grow fond of Apple Bloom, not that its a bad thing. She can have some pretty entertaining moments (see Cutie Pox), and she is easily the most relateable to the show's basic target audience. I'm just a little dissapointed by the lack of my favorite characters - Pinkie Pie/Fluttershy - having a chance for their own startng roles (I consider Hearth's Warming to have been another mane 6 episode instead of particular pony one, similar to the season intro episodes). Of course, given that they're both the two most static characters of the entire series, it makes perfect sense. Still, it saddens me.
The lack of mental breakdowns also is dissapointing. Sisterhove Social came close to Rarity's first
real
snap, but she just barely managed to avoid it. At least she kept in character, though.
Back to the episode itself, though. As always, the writer's astound me with the ammount of world-building their willing to put into the story. First Heath's Warming Eve and now Granny Smith's story about the founding of Ponyville! What's next? And, of course, we can't forget about the pun-filled cast names (Filthy Rich and Stinkin' Rich both made me grin when they were introduced). Oh, and the Timber wolves.
Timber
wolves, that was great. It also has the more mature humor that adults watching with their kids would get - such as the death glare on Granny Smith's mother's face in the flashback - that most kids shows today are missing. It's awesome.
That's about it, fingers crossed for Pinkie Pie or Fluttershy episode on the 14th!
EDIT:
Images range from the adorable to the hilarious.

(More spoilers)
Pretty good episode. Not top tier, but nice to have something new.
Pros:
Saw a rough map of Equestria (at least the part around Ponyville).
Timber wolves are awesome.
Learned how Ponyville was founded.
Cons:
It was a pretty slow start. By the time it got interesting, it was already two-thirds over. The first half was just Granny Smith being old.
Introducing Diamond Tiara's Dad causes a contradiction with Past Sins, which simply will not do!
Would have liked more ponies. We've had, what, four Applebloom episodes? When are we gonna get a Scootaloo episode? :(
Edit: Also, Morec, I was wondering if you and/or Patty wanted to be editors and/or co-writers on the ponyfic I'm working on.

Hmmm... I'll give it some thought and get back to you about it in one of the Q&A's.
