First Round Voting Results! · 12:58am Sep 4th, 2014

Here are the results for the first round voting! Thanks to everyone who took the time to vote.

A lot of people unfortunately didn't read or follow the voting rules, which led to some minor voting irregularites. These irregularities did not adversely affect the overall results.

Votes for the following stallions were discarded because they violated the voting rules:

Filthy Rich, Shining Armor (married)
Blueblood, Flim, Flam (against voting rules)

I'd like to note that technically, Soarin won the vote for Applejack. However, he also won the vote for Rainbow Dash, and the number of votes for Rainbow+Soarin VASTLY outnumbered the total votes for Applejack+Soarin, so Rainbow gets Soarin, and I went with the runner-up for Applejack (Thunderlane).

Sweeeeeeeeeet. Four of my favorite OTPs. :twilightsmile::twilightsmile::twilightsmile:

2425957 Shoot, this is pretty much ALL of my OTPs, save for AJ and Thunderlane. And I honestly expected this to NOT happen. Well, what can you do. Time to see where all this madness goes!

Yeah but all these have been done to death

Applejack + Thunderlane, that's new.

I was going to vote for that, but got distracted this morning. :twilightblush:

2426004

Exactly. Still, we can hope the author comes up with something new...ish.

And here I was a good girl and only picked my OTP once! Ok, cheating, I guess, because I've only got one, but I deliberately picked some unusual pairings. Still, it doesn't matter how common or uncommon the pairings are. A good story is a good story. I'll be looking forward to seeing how this plays out!

2426044 I'd probably have allowed it. It just never came up.

I am moderately disappointed... :ajsleepy: Only AJ got an odd pairing...

I was kinda hoping for more crackships but oh well. It should still be an interesting read.

Are you sure Filthy Rich is married? I mean, yeah, he might have been at some point because Diamond Tiara, the voting is done with anyway and since it's your story, what you believe about this goes. I'm just saying that if there's been confirmation that he's currently married, I don't remember it.

Well, now I kind of feel ashamed for voting RainbowxSoarin... Oh, well.

Aww, Time Turner was so close to being picked... I voted PinkiexTimeTurner, but I suppose that's rather irrevelant to mention at this point.

Wow! I Cannot wait to read the reactions and story :pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy:
P.S I have the joy as I hoped Bulk Biceps would be for Fluttershy but Big Mac works too.
:eeyup:(Dang right)

Wow. The only one that I didn't expect was Applejack's.

Rox

Not one that I voted for.....

oh well. When you do a vote it's gotta be difficult to try and put new spins on old pairings, and then the new one with AJ and Thunderlane will be the most fun I think. HOWEVER, you do have the advantage of this being a different kind of ship. Instead of a romance, it's a contest so that should keep a lot of doors open for stuff we haven't seen before.

Looking forward to it!

i love how discord's name was voted for everyone to be shipped with at least once lol.

I was right, I was the only one who voted for my pairings (although, thankfully, not the only one who voted for Compass Star or Ace to get matched up with someone). I'm rather sad that this turned out rather orthodox, but those are the breaks.

2426142 Well, Babs Seed did threaten to tell Diamond Tiara's mother about her bullying, so...

Aww, none of mine were chosen for the first drawing. Guess I'll just vote for them on the next one.

Yay! Thunderlane! But I feel these are all common ships, and not random at all. Won't it make the story I don't know... Predictable? And since Spike already likes Rarity, it's an instant win.

Twilight: Flash Sentry - 29: winner

Nope! i'm out!

1. Bitch at all the people who voted for those ships, not me.
2. Have some fucking respect for ME, yeah? You wouldn't be reading/faving my stories if you didn't like reading them, so trust me to know how to work with this.
3. Again, just because these ships got voted in doesn't mean they're going to stick. At least three of them are going to fail.

So before you complain/decide this is going to suck/decide this is going to be predictable, take a moment to consider that just because the voting didn't go the way you wanted, it doesn't mean the story itself is going to suck. Because frankly, that assumption is offensive to me.

2426986
1: not bitching at you, where in my post does it indicate that i am bitching to you?
2: i do respect you, as you said if i didn't i would not be following you or reading your fics, again, where in my post does it indicate that i am disrespecting to you?
3: don't matter, its a non issue

i'm not saying the fic sucks, where in my post does it say that this fic sucks or is shit? i just don't like "flashlight" i won't read anything "flashlight" the reason "I'm Out" is because this fic contains "flashlight" and i have no desire to read anything that contains that ship

i don't understand where all this Rage and Hate has come from? add to the fact that it's directed to me just because i have chosen to drop the due to personal preference is quite frankly offensive and unwanted

Oh darn. I was hoping for some interesting pairings, but democracy plus the inertia of fanon means the lowest common denominator wins. At least Thunderjack is rather novel.

Eh, it's you writing it. It'll still be good. Still, I'm surprised Pinkie included Spike in the possibilities. How does age of consent work with dragons?

2427000 You said "Nope! I'm out" just because Flash Sentry won the vote for the first round, which says to me you're unwilling to see what's actually going to happen, which says to me you don't respect me as a writer enough to stick around and see where I take it.

So yeah, you disrespected me with your remark, whether you intended to or not.

Also, you did notice that you weren't the only one I was replying to earlier, didn't you?

i don't like Flash Sentry and i go out of my way to avoid any fic that he is in no matter who writes it, but whatever, if that's how you feel then that's your issue not mine, i'm done with this

later

my guess is the usual ones like spike with rarity are going to helariously fail, like spike already dating someone and Rarity getting jealous or something

2426986 whoa, I'm just commenting! The writing is great, that's why I faved, it's just that I feel it's weird about the ships. Sorry if I sounded like a total asshole back there, but you made it work. I knew you would, I was just stating my thoughts, as I should in the comments section.

Sorry for sounding like a negative ass,
ButtonMash.

Awwww the only one I didn't get was AJxCaramel, but whatever. :twilightangry2::twilightoops::twilightblush::pinkiehappy:

:( I don't mind ApplejackxThunderlane but TwiSentry :raritycry: I'm not hating on that ship, but I was hoping for TwiTurner but sure whatever.

2428690 Once again: nobody said these are the final ships.

2428810 You know, I was looking at the ways that people didn't follow your voting instructions, and then the responses here, and I have to conclude that a lot of people don't read.


2427010 Well, you know how I feel about Cheese, but other than that, I thought your way of picking was good. Almost wish I'd done it! And hey, a total miracle could happen and somepony could wind up with Stellar Eclipse. :rainbowkiss:

2429279 Ironic, isn't it? On a site whose sole purpose is reading.

Awww... I wanted SoarinJack.


BUT WHATEVER

ANY AJ MAKES ME HAPPEH! :pinkiecrazy:

Is it just me or did big mac get like second on amost all of them? :rainbowderp:

I should have know the Sparity fans would help Spike win. Will it was voting can't really say it was not fair. But still Rarity and Fancy Pants forever.

Call the Princess, The fleet sails
:facehoof:Flash entry? Oh I hope not.
:rainbowlaugh:Head in the thunderous clouds?
:pinkiehappy:Cheese cake or Creamed pie?
:ajsmug:Oh Flying horse Apples!
:raritywink:A fire breathing lizard:heart: Beats all my last dates. UGH!
:eeyup:Flutter:heart:shy EEYUP!
:moustache: Las Pegisus here we go!

Of all the things that could go wrong can GO wrong!:trollestia:

hmph. ajxsoarin way better than rainbowxsoarin.

It has Soarindash and an awesome riter, I'm happy!
