Yeah, I've noticed that too. I let people above me know, in case it was useful knowledge.

Been on them for months to fix that.

Sorry, I have no influence on what gets frontpaged. But I've noticed if something gets tags, that means the other mod likes it and will probably feature it on a slow day.

When I clicked on [ http://cheezburger.com/8570044160 ] it appears with the light blue background and says it's on the Animals subsite. Anything I submit using the link I gave you appears on the red background and says it's on the Geek Universe subsite.

If you want your stuff featured on MLB, it's more likely to get noticed if you submit it to MLB directly: http://geek.cheezburger.com/bronies/submit

I still think it was Pesari, just because of some messages he sent me on deviantArt beforehand, and the description on RendyBulz's profile.

I forgot to thank you on Saturday there for... managing RendyBulz. I know that with comments like his, *someone* will respond to him, and if someone doesn't do it with some class and humour, then it will rapidly descend into a shitstorm of angry comments. You set the tone for dealing with him and kept a bad situation from getting worse. Thanks.

Typical chapter length is usually anywhere from 2-5k, with some notable exceptions. Coming from a guy that averages 500-2k words per chapter on a good day, I can safely say you're in the money zone there.

I have no idea why I'm a favorite though. It seems like I get on people's nerves more than anything.

No, that's not it. My letters mainly focused on Celestia's input on the events that transpired in the series, with some crazy stuff slipped in here or there along the way. There were hardly any modified letters or bewildered responses, to my knowledge. Also, I'd like to wait until you have somewhere between 1/4 or half done before sneaking a peek.

Tired Old Man. If that don't work, dig around in there for "Letters from an Irritated Princess." It's my most popular story on fimfic, and you should see why.

I did think about Celestia going off to find some thousand-year toy relic reminiscent of their happy childhood, perhaps delving into the figurative death traps of ye olde two sister castle that seem to carry all sorts of abandoned things in there. But I also considered the more episodic approach where she does call upon Twilight's aid in figuring out a proper gift for a time-displaced lunar princess. Both feel like they could mesh well enough, and it keeps the affair local without visiting some exotic locale.

Hmm... how about a simple idea? Celestia wants to get a gift for Luna's birthday, but has no idea what to get her on account of the fact that the last time she gave her sister a birthday gift was over a millennium ago.

Eh, it's not so much the randomness of it as it is the treatment of the characters leaving more to be desired for me. But yeah, I couldn't have it build up because the start didn't give me much to build up from all the random stuff strewn about like a yard sale.

100? Nah, I enjoyed the ride for what it was. It at least had some decency about doing everything crazy, but not TOO crazy. But the story opens up with a line about Fluttershy fearing an extended conversation, then Scoots just calling her out on the spot about it. I'm just wondering what basis exists for Fluttershy to fear lengthy conversation, because that soured the beginning before I could even get into this.

My head checked out right around the time Sweetie broke the fourth. Yes, didn't even make it ten paragraphs in before I knew the characters weren't getting the proper respect they deserve. Joke fic or not, poor characterization is no laughing matter.

Twilight's a grab bag of emotions that makes mistakes. In other words, she's as human as it gets... minus the amazing arcane powers at her disposal. And yeah, the twists and turns characters make as you write them is definitely a huge thing to witness. Hell, I've written Tia as an ornery and easily aggravated leader provoked at the slightest inkling of stupidity, only for her to transform into a stern but caring individual. Actually took me by surprise when it happened, but I'm glad it went that way.
