Attention, brony survey! Need answers. · 5:56pm Apr 21st, 2014
Attention, those of you in college. I'm helping someone gather information about bronies. Please answer this survey and get back to me as quickly as possible. It is being done by a student as my school. She is looking for bronies to answer a brief survey about MLP:FiM, and is in need of responses, especially from guys. In return for answering this, I will help you with one piece of your fanfiction, either by editing or reviewing.

In between seasons 1 and 2, when I said "Alright, I gotta see just WTF is going on with this."
2) What is your earliest memory of watching this show?
Squirming in my seat because I was watching a little girls' show.

That's like choosing a favorite child. That's not fair.
4) What is your favorite episode, and why?
See above.
5) Who else do you watch this show with?
No one.
6) When do you find yourself watching this show?
Very rarely. I'll usually hit a binge of ~10 episodes in a day, and spend a weekend doing nothing else.
7) How often do you find yourself posting online about this show?
...Eeeeeehhhhh... I'm in the FiM Fiction forums, but I almost never post about the show. It's usually about the people in the fandom.
8) What elements do you like about the show as a whole?
Good character interaction.

Nope.
10) What other TV shows do you enjoy? In particular, what other cartoon shows do you like?
I don't watch a lot of TV; most of my viewing comes from online sources. In particular, I follow Rooster Teeth productions, some animes (Attack on Titan, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood), and a select few TV originals (White Collar, Game of Thrones).

After Watching:
1) What aspects about this episode did you find enjoyable?
In particular, the resolution between Luna and Celestia. I love watching high-position characters (parents, politicians, gods, etc.) break character and showing that at the end of they day, they're just people, with all their glory and horror intact.
2) Were there any parts that you found funny, sad, dramatic, etc?
It's very "kids-show" up until the end. I wasn't emotionally engaged until the Crowning Moment of Heartwarming with the Sisters. That made me smile.
3) What aspects about this episode did you not like?
It suffers from prologue syndrome. We have to establish a world, characters, back-story, rules, et cetera. It takes half an hour for the conflict to even be introduced. It's fair, and it's a kid show, but it's still irritating.
Any other comments?
However you choose to use this information, be honest and thorough. Show your process, and guide your audience to the same conclusions you have made. Make your argument, and show exactly what points support your argument. Be expansive. Hit every point you need to hit; leave nothing to interpretation. Tell us exactly what each point means and why we should care.
