My newest love is Cucumber Quest. It's like a sarcastic letter to Paper Mario, 16bit Video Games and a 1up'd Legend of Zelda with all the humor and wit of Dramatic Comment readings- set in apparently some kind of Food world where almost everyone is some kind of food character. The Main Characters is the unambitious and cautious Cucumber, and his rambunctious and energetic little sister Almond.

Dear Princess Celestia: By my calculations, Equestria, and the planet that it resides on, are inside a realm in a different point in the 7th Dimension relative to Humankind. Dimension 0: A single value in a system. It has no length or depth, simply itself as a Point of information. Dimension 1: Two values interpolated as a scalar system of indeterminate size. Length, if you will, as a Line. Dimension 2: Interpolate the 1st Dimension with another set of Scalar values and you get two-value bits of information, that can be extracted from what appears to be a Plane, or flat sheet. Length vs. Width. Dimension 3: Interpolate the 2nd with the 3rd and the Plane of infinite thinness becomes a volume, like a Cube. Length vs. Width. vs. Height. Dimension 4: Interpolate the Cube-like volume of the 3rd Dimension along another dimension. Imagine collapsing the cube down to a point, and then this point drawing a Line. This would be the 3rd Dimension translating through Duration, or Time. Length vs. Width. vs. Height vs. Time. Dimension 5: Probability and Chance variate the dimension of Time. If Time was a Line, "What If" situations are translations in the Plane-like grid of Time as "what could have been". Dimension 6: Supervariation, aka the ability to translate between different locations of Chance, Choice, Probability and Likelihood. Time travel and 'alternate universe' observations would be both possible and easy in this dimension. If Time is a line, Supervariation is a Cube, and all of the 3rd Dimension is a 0th Point inside this Cube. Dimension 7: Collapsing all possible points in Space, Time, Likelihood and Variation, into a single finite point again, interpolating all Possibilities in this Universe with another dimension would require variation of Physics. In a different point in the 7th Dimension, Physics and the fundamental rudiments of the operation of our Universe at every level, from Gravity to Nuclear, are different. Once again, a Line. Dimension 8: Differences in how the Universe came into being would interpolate all possible Universes within the 7th Dimension. A Grid. Dimension 9: Differences in how the Universe ends or is destroyed interpolates all possible Universes and their origins. A Cube. Dimension 10: All Possible Universes, Systems of Physicality, Origins and Terminations. Length vs. Width vs. Depth vs. Time vs. Chance vs. Variation vs. Physics vs. Starts vs. Ends A different location in the 7th dimension is Physic's way of saying "A Wizard Did It" and never having to worry about the "Why" that governs Human's questions about things like Weather non-unconditionality, the Health effects of only eating party goods, and Ponies defying gravity and acceleration on a regular basis. -Excuse me, I have to show a few Photons who's boss. Your Faithful Student, Blue

No one's perfect, and these things take a bit of effort to whip up. Mistakes can come from anywhere.

Is that a truth claim which you assume everyone should adopt first and foremost before accepting any other truth claims?

Yeah if we use the Team Fortress 2 analogy, this is the order of things: Scouts - Scouts with 45 health, Bonk energy drink, a spotting scope, and no Bat. Interceptors - Pyros that can run as fast as medics Bombers - Demomen that can run as fast as pyros but have a weakness to everything and Glaswegian rum. Light Corvettes - Pyros that run as fast as pyros but can aim and fire in three different directions at once. Heavy Corvettes - A Demoman that has 8 weapon loadout slots. Light Frigates - Varying between a Medic, Spy, Engineer, Heavy or Soldier with a slight speed buff and health nerf. Medium Frigates - Varying between a Medic, Spy, Engineer, Heavy or Soldier with a speed nerf and health buff. Heavy Frigate - Heavy, Soldier or Medic with 350 health or more. Everything bigger - A Giant Ogre armed with a wheelbarrow and all the wishful thinking in the world. Any vessel with a Carrier loadout - Medic on a self-powered wheelchair that has low batteries, armed with 10 paintball guns, one for each finger. The Space Shuttle - Civillian except it has 2 health and can only travel 8 feet from the spawn room. Saturn V - SAXTON HAAAAAAAAAALE

Well, except for that time that I saw you walking into town and I went *gasp* but I mean really, who can top that? (Rephrase) Well, except for that occasion when I saw you walking into town and I gasped audibly, but seriously, could there be anything better than that?

@LordSinister: Your character sheet is very detailed and I have no complaints with it. The question then arises as to how much characterization you'll fit into your narrative that might become redundant because of how detailed the sheet is. @Luis & Everyone: I'll now take stock of our ship situation. And with my cursory glance, I don't think we'll be starting on November 1st. 4 Medium Frigates 1 x Assault (Valiant) 2 x Stealth Combat (Invisible, Shadow Spear) 1 x Cruiser/Destroyer (Glain-Neidr) 4 Scout Flights (4 Craft total) (Great Fox, The Abandoned One, Blurr, Xielumbus) This consist I personally think needs some modification, with all due respect. I made my vessel pretty general in order to accommodate modification for balance, but- at the very least, I expect one Scout Flight to change to Bombers or Interceptors, or change their Craft total to have one wingmate or more. (Remember Scouts; can have two wingmates, and bombers or interceptors can have four. Not everyone needs to be fast and spritely- and Interceptors are better at combat.) I will be changing to a Heavy Frigate in order to support our Strike Craft with a launching bay, but that will limit my abilities in direct combat and relegate the Valiant to much more hanging back from the fray. As it stands, all of our abilities to combat Capital ships rely on the Glain-Neidr. If someone rigged up an Ion Cannon or switched to Bombers, that would be awesome. If Luis, Madman, Srake and Bill are contented to stay as Strike Craft, that's fine, I can modify to accommodate that with an Additional Craft Bay, but that is dependent on the Strike Crafters diversifying a bit. Imagine we're in Setup Round in Team Fortress 2, except the map isn't Goldrush, it's the Trainstation from Half Life 2 and we've never played HL2 before: we have no idea what to expect, and this is our loadout: (This analogy works if you imagine that all three of those Scouts have health penalties, Bonk, and there are no Healthkits in the level.)

@Madman: I'm going to suppose that the armor is entirely form-covering and worn at all times, which would explain why your character has no indicated Race or Species. Apart from your very small and non-indicative Service record, it's good enough. However I would like to know what wormhole conjuring has anything to do with, and also explanation as to the nature of a single scout fighter by itself without any accompanying wingmen (in any case), or a mothership (unless otherwise indicated). You don't see Mercenaries up and flying Blackbirds modern day everywhere.

I do now! Did you know that gasoline looks like water unless a dye is added to it? (Most gas stations add a yellowish or pink dye to gasoline). Did you know that battery acid both looks feels just like water except a little bit oily? That's because if directly exposed, it doesn't do anything at first. (Except dissolve the fat and oil tissues on the surface of your skin, explaining the oily feel.) Over the course of about an hour, the exposed spot will start to feel a bit itchy, and anything you touched after an hour will start to stain brown. (If it's paper, it will look like it's been exposed to grease, like if chips were on it. It will also tear easily.) After three hours, the itch will have continually grown to the point of intolerable, and any time you've itched it, you've made it worse. At four hours you scream in annoyance and agony as you realize: congratulations, you've got a very serious chemical burn and will require special medical treatment and maybe a skin graft. [That's why while it doesn't seem like much if you ever do get something like battery acid on you, it's a freaking serious issue even if it was only for a moment or as little as a drop. If exposed to strong acid, wash for 15 solid minutes with water, and seek help. "Thanks, Supervisor Dennis! Your experience and insight benefits us all."]

Oh my blunders I think I forgot you on there somehow. You had the same amount as Pinkie Pie.

Your character height is apparently 2 feet.

A big online buisness merger is coming through today. Expect the next big thing to be "YouTwitFace".

Where does wheat or sugar come from in Equestria? We see that they consume a lot of foodstuffs that have them.

Point taken. Planning on lighting this candle on November 1st, unless there are objections or suggestions otherwise.

@Psychotic Ninja: It's spartan for a description but it will do. @BillLudwick: Please re-read the qualifications for Strike Craft and Frigates. Your current description of the Xielumbus is too small of a ship to have three Hardpoints, or not big enough (and with too small a crew) to be a Frigate. Consider Corvettes if you don't want to be enormous but also want lots of weapons. @Srake: Sorry for not getting to you earlier, I would have bucked-up yesterday but my internet time was cut short. Your character looks well done and vessel pretty properly described, although you might be shooting yourself in the foot at this point by making yourself start with a relatively untrustworthy rust-bucket. @LordSinister: MV is one of the several modern naming conventions for Merchant Vessels in the real world, Merchant Vessels being the distinction between Private and State Vessel operation. Eg: MV = Motor Vessel, SS = Steam Ship, MSV = Motor Stand-by Vessel, SV = Sailing Vessel, RMS = Royal Mail Ship, HMS = Her Majesty's Service, HMCS = Her Majesty's Canadian Service, USS = United States Service, etc. In practice, this explains "USS Enterprise" or "RMS Titanic" by it's national name identifier. Since this is SPAAAAAAAACE, feel free to make up your own naming prefix (within reason). I'll just leave mine being MV standing for "Merchant Vessel". In the original space opera I was a part of, my vessel was called the "ANEC Bluenose", ANEC standing for 'Allied Navy Expeditionary Corps.'. I guess I didn't say, but I should have. Heavy Frigates, like Light Capitals, can have all three of their Hardpoints Weapons or Utilities. Therefore they could be mixed W+W+W, W+W+U, W+U+U or U+U+U or combinations thereby. Hyperdrives are bulky affairs that work in tandem with large engine and reactor systems, (Small craft do not have much in terms of reactors.) which is why they require a Hardpoint. Also, the Ion Cannon does require two Hardpoints to be used, so I would recommend you change that to the shuttles. I'd recommend three shuttles, no more than four, in order to simplify your extension of control. Whenever your vessel consists of more than one craft, that means you have to be able to coordinate yourself whenever they're deployed independently. In conjunction with that opinion, I would also recommend you expand your crew some. Double it maybe. @Everyone: When I say "crew", I don't actually plan on you thinking about the individual personalities and lives of as many as 500 people in this game. I'm more thinking of [varying from slaves to service-honored employees and colleagues] people who do your bidding, except for a small selection that you'd like to characterize more for a lark or as background detail, like your Executive (First) Officer, Navigator, Chief Engineer, Cook, Ship Medic or whatever.

First of all, I don't think there any "Anti-bronies" anymore, just non-bronies. Also making this chart would require us to know how on to forums is Brony and who is not and even though we have a poll on the MLP thread I doubt everyone has voted there(or enough to make it an interesting chart). I estimate the ratio is 3:2:1 for Pro-Pony to Neutral to Non-Brony. That could be doable. User dating for some reason became very innacurate in March 2011, many users allegedly "joined" in that month following the loss of some user join data or somesuch. This is why Alyxx, who out-ages pretty much everyone on the forum except Ross Scott, apparently joined in March. I guess for that someone would need to look at all the "Most posts in" section on the Profile of major bronies and hope his/her most posts are actually in the MLP thread. Most easily done out of the three you mentioned, although "Easy" is a relative term. I'll sample 20 pages and base it upon that since I don't want to go through all 130 pages, and there isn't a 'Most Posts In'; There's Most Active Forum and Most Active Topic, both of which usually fall in the 'Random Page' for almost everyone. This graph was obsolete about 15 minutes after I started making it. So much for meek and modest Fluttershy.
