Hello bronies. You asked, and I will answer. And for teh lolz, I'm putting my reactions as pictures.
LET'S DO THIS.



fenril asked:
did you choose them based off of them being the more popular HiE stories?

and why not the dad my MLD? 

A:

What an interesting question. I choose them, yes, because of popularity, but also because I had read them. I needed to feel like I knew the character. Preeety simple.
And MLD? Well... I don't think he could have contributed anything humorous. He's a pretty stereotypical sad guy. He seems like he would just bring the mood down.
And I didn't choose him because I didn't really think about him.
NEXT QUESTION:



fenril asked (again):
what other humans didnt make the cut? 
A:

How...what? You read my mind son. There are three humans who didn't make the cut.
Connie Hayden from Butterscotch's Adventures in Equestria was one.
Why? Well, I sent every author a message asking them if I could use their character. And most replied.
Except one: butterscotchsundae
That's that.
Another was Isaac from Not the Afterlife I Signed Up For.
Why? I just...totally forgot about him. =P
The last was Derp. Oh Derp.
Well you see, this story was going to be a lot different. Al the humans were meeting to put an end to the bad HiE stories. Derp was sort of their inside knowledge.
See? It was kind of dumb and not very funny. So I changed it. And that's who was cut.
ON TO THE NEXT:



Ugh. Tyrannosaurus_Tux asked:
How bout that multi-dimensional society, then?

After all, there is only one internet for all the dimensions 
A:


Duh.
It's inside a trash can.
NEXT ONE:



zinitradd asked:
Was the part where Connor called Second's goals "storybook" a reference to the fact that Second is aware of being trapped in a story? And did Connor know about that when he said it? 

A:

Well...I would like to say yes but...
Nah. I really didn't think of that.
But in the original I did...
NEXT!



Tailslover13 asked:
How did you think up this initial idea? What was going through your mind and how did it come to this type of interesting conclusion? 

A:

All I know is that I have a crazy imagination...
And I wasn't doing drugs.
I CONCUR!



Poodicus asked:
How did all the humans come together? How do they all know each other?

A:

It doesn't really matter...
But...
I guess they met at a bar? In Ponyville? By some freak dimensional portal?
Meh.
BLARGH:



fenril asked (again)[again]:
will they ever finish their poker game? will they defeat the bomb crapping monster?

will the author write another story to find out?

A:

Perhaps...
LAST ONE:



Tyrannosaurus_Tux asked (again):
What if these stories are all true

But we're the unwitting gods of them? 

A:
