Luna is Best Pony Contest Update! · 4:40pm Apr 2nd, 2014

Well, as it turns out, the "contest" is just a big popularity poll where the person with the most followers wins.

So, I dropped out of it, because that's bullshit.

And you know what?

Lol it's not a situation to laugh at, but that picture... :rainbowlaugh:

1976870 It's okay to laugh. It honestly describes how I felt very realistically. :twilightsmile:

At least we got a good Luna story out of it!:raritywink:

1976879 I agree with bassline! We got a good Surry story!

1976887 Why THANKS! :pinkiehappy:


1976888 To be honest with you... :twilightsheepish: I don't really like it that much.

1976893 lol... It really was a good story!

I feel like all my stories suck. But that's me lol.

I'm glad I didn't compete in that contest. Night Spark was winning when I last checked, but he's been laughing about how the moment cynwolf or whatever his name is blogs for people to vote, it's gonna be an insta win. Not fair for us authors with fewer followers, but it's ok. I won't compete for a month or so... I need to work on main story, and WTG stories :twilightsmile:

1976914 Yep, pointless contest. :twilightsmile:

And I feel like all my stories suck too.

Voices never even got over 1,000 views. Fucking worthless. :ajsleepy:

1976924 whoa man! Voices was not worthless! It was amazing! Even though it didn't break 1000 yet it's still got a group of people that love it!

My most important story Spirits only has 200 something views... Talk about lame lol. That one is my baby, and I hope it gets to voices' level! Even if I don't get a ton of views just having a small fanbase would be amazing!

Not fair for us authors with fewer followers

That's what pisses me off about that. Surry's stories are better than mine, but a lotof mine are more popular just because I have more followers. How fair would that be if Bats competed along with some new users? There's no real contest, no matter how good the other stories are. Even if Bats' story was his worst yet, he'd still get more views because Bats! :flutterrage::facehoof:

Disclaimer: I have nothing against Bats...like, at all. :unsuresweetie:

There's no real contest, no matter how good the other stories are.

That's why I just want to quit using this fucking site. :ajbemused: It's pointless. :applejackunsure:

1976964 That's why we made the group. :fluttershysad::heart:

1976967 I hope, man. I hope. :unsuresweetie:

1976971 I'm thinking of hosting a "Just For Fun Twidash One-shot Contest." :twilightsmile:

1976956 yeah I have that same situation sometimes...

I've seen some amazing stories get very little attention, and other stories that some popular authors write in like 20 minutes like blow it out of the water... Id love to get that many followers and stuff, but It probably won't happen cause our stories get buried by the vets

1976974 I was planning that too actually! Wanna be judges? :duck:

1976974 I'd participate in it!

1976982 Even with as many followers as I have, I've only been featured once, and that was just because it was a Hearts and Hooves Day story on Valentines. :twilightoops:

1976986 You'd write a TwiDash?! :raritystarry:

1976985 Yes! :rainbowwild:
1976986 Excellent! :pinkiehappy:

Twidash's Eggcelent Egghead Contest? :duck: Or is the bad pun too much? :rainbowlaugh:

1976989 id give it a try! :twilightsmile:

1976991 I have an Amazon giftcard I wasn't using. Could use it as a prize. :duck:

1976974 id try to partisapate in that contest if only I could stop procastanating

1976996 If you feel comfortable doing that, then go ahead. I was just gonna' make it just for fun, but that sounds cool too. :P

1977145 It kinda sucks that not everyone will see it because of the 'no notifications' thing. :applejackunsure:

1977168 Still not everyone would see it, but we could always put up a notice on the front page and both post blogs about it. :pinkiesmile:

1977173 Hmm... good point. :applejackunsure:

1977174 My internet is down, and I can't stand to use 3G on my phone, so I'm gonna' go watch some Avatar I have downloaded until the guys respond to my work order request. seeya. Text me if you need me. :twilightsmile:

I suggest you try the Equestria Daily Writer's Training Grounds, because those who make it are decided by story quality, rather than popularity.

1983245 Sorry, not a big fan of EQD. :applejackunsure:
