Oh god... A bit funny, I must say, though. I will watch due to no spelling mistakes.

I like it. Oh, the lengths you could take this story!

I swear, if you stop writing this story before it is complete I will send starving children to your house and make you feel really bad about yourself.

cant wait!

Oh, I cannot wait to see how this turns out.

I tracked this because the comments told me to

BWA HA HA! omg, this is too perfect! dicord and chris would totally get along.

So, does this make Derpy Izzy or what? And if so, will she end up changing names at random?

So... who's going to be Chef?

I'm gonna make a few guesses about parallels that might occur here:

Trixie=Heather (if she does the whole team-up thing; I imagine she'll recruit Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon)

Gilda=Eva

Fluttershy=DJ

Pinkie=either Jeff, Izzy, or Owen

Twilight=Gwen or Courtney

Rainbow=Bridget (if so, then I no longer think Pinkie should be Jeff) or Duncan (if so, then i no longer think Twilight should be Courtney)

AJ=Leshauna (or however the **** her name is spelled)

>>2221922219 Discord could easily act as both Chris and Chef.

Also, I could see Rarity as Courtney , Spike as Cody and maybe Dash as Duncan.

And although, I'm enjoying this so far, I kind of wish there were 2 more "campers" like the source material. I think it would be amusing if Big Mac and maybe Photo Finish or Little Strongheart were there too.

Can I sit on you?

F*** yeah!

>>2234122341

Well, if Spike was Cody they'd pretty much have to make Rarity Gwen (which just seems unlikely), or else it wouldn't be quite the same.

Trying to figure out who could be Trent, but the only one in the group with a thing for music seems to be Vinyl (well, at least she's the only one who specializes in music)

I kinda think the princesses have an unfair advantage here, because anypony who tries to vote them off will get a one way ticket to the moon if it's Celestia or (I assume) the sun if it's Luna as soon as the show is over and they return to normal.

>>2252222522 Well, I was talking more in terms of personality (ponyality?) than shipping.

lol

two things, your discord amuses me and spike was spot on.

You should have added Prince Blueblood; he would be perfect for the role of Justin.

>>2294422944 This, just this.

>Troll me?

You have been already troll'd, Discord.

Fluttershy is a great counter-troll.

As of now, 5/5.

Bwahaha! I love this!

I am hoping you continue with this story since it absolutely ROCKS!

Discord is hilarious.

And I couldn't stop thinking of NMM with chef's voice

Awesome. Salty balls of NMM cuz she's chef? Derpy using Pinkie's tushie as pillow? Trixie's plotting against Twi?! GILDA WINNING FIRST COMPETETION WITH DASH!? Awsum

Oh, goody....Nightmare Chef? Does this mean that she's going to try to ally with AJ? And does Derpy's clumsiness make her Bridget?

>>2515025150

Word to the wise: that's exactly why I never read the comments first. You see, if I had read your comment there and hadn't read the chapter yet, that would of been quite a spoiler.

Although, I can't say i'm surprised about NMM, because just before I started reading this chapter I looked over the list of characters and was surprised to see her listed. At first I was thinking maybe Luna was going to reveal that she could still transform for the sake of a size advantage (because that's the only advantage it would give, with her not having magic and all), but as soon as they mentioned that being a cook was lady's work, I instantly figured it out. One question, though: ow is it that NMM can use magic on the island? The spell on the island is supposed to stop any and all ponies from using magic; Discord can only use his magic because he's not a pony, but NMM is a pony.

derpys real name is Ditzy Doo plz get it right its a small thing i know but it helps in terms of being well writen for a mlp fan fic

>>2517325173 discord could be useing his magic to allow her to use her magic maybe? i donno

this story is awesome i am really enjoying this

>>2520225202 Um, no. She doesn't actually have an official name, but Derpy is probably closer since the people who actually make the show tend to refer to her as such.

This is brilliant! You've definitely captured the spirit of both show, and I'm loving the characterizations for the ones who haven't been developed in the canon. I'm also liking how the confessionals are handled. So far this is one of the most entertaining fics I've ever read, and I can't wait for more

oh celsetia, this is too funny

Up until now I wasn't entirely sure what this story was supposed to be referencing; I was expecting it to turn into Battle Royale. I am pleasantly surprised. This is much more entertaining.

Now that I think about it, even if every chapter after this ends in an elimination and there are no points like in the show where they bring back one or two who had been voted off, there will still be at least 19 more. Combine that with the fact that each chapter is in the area of 10,000 words long and you have one LOOOONNNNNNGGGG fic ahead of you. This is probably gonna take a while, isn't it? I just hope you can keep up the pace you've set so far of making at least one new chapter per week.

>>2538225382 Well, the title should kind of be a dead giveaway, shouldn't it?

If you're unfamiliar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_Drama_Island

>>2540625406 Do not worry. I've been writing for 13 years, and I don't have much else to do, not to mention I love to write almost more than life itself, so you can count on more coming out before long. I promise not to quit and that it will not end within a year.

>>2561125611

Um, are you sure you worded that correctly? You just said you promise it won't end within a year, meaning it will take more than a year to finish. Are you sure that's what you were trying to say?

I didn't care for Total Drama Island at all.

But this is just awesome

>>2581925819 Yeah, I noticed what I said...I'm pretty sure you know what I mean...I meant to say something like it won't be a year for when I finish it...or something like that.

>The regular bathrooms are OVER THERE!

This made my day.

>Keep…it up…and I’ll send you…on a one-way trip…right back to the moon!

U mad Celestia?

Btw, both Discord and Pinkie like to laugh.

IT'S CANON.

Quite funny and enjoyable read! And I don't even like Survivor!

I really like the way you've handled Discord. I like him more as a playful villain rather than a super creepy, violent beast. He's interesting to watch as he makes the others run through his hoops. Curious to see what his ultimate goal is.

Were the teams deliberately planned or did you randomly put them together? To me it looks like the teams were created for specific comic potential. Either way, it's working.

Looking forward to more! I hope some of my favorites make it all the way to the end!

>>2622226222 It you want the truth, I came up with the teams at random. A part of me compares them to Total Drama Island characters, but another part of me wants to make them parody that show, but at the same time be themselves. Therefore, the teams aren't really made in ways that really make a lot of sense; I came up with them in my head. I was thinking about funny combinations, who should be eliminated and in what order, who would fit where, and so on and so forth. Thanks for saying it's working so far, even though it's only been 2.5 episodes. Thanks for reading, though! You'll have to wait and see who makes it close to the end.

Awesome! And I love Gilda - she may have attitude, but she clearly knows what she doing! That griffin has spunk, brains and strength!

I'll guess there will be no teams at the end at all.

I still remember that Chris tricked everyone in free-for-all.

>Chicken hat

Chicken hat wouldn't be something new for Pinkie.

>Yay?

Yay made it.

I got overloaded.

>No, I think another show already does that, and if you ask me, it’s lame,

*meanwhile at Total Drama Musical*

Chris:Argh...my sense says that someone insulted my show!

(Total Drama Island is part one, Musical is part four as far as I know)

This is just..... brilliant. Brilliant idea, brilliant choice, brilliantly written, just...... brilliant.

DAMN YOU GILDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Damn you, Dash! You nearly killed Silverspoon for sake of winning some STUPID competetion! You're more fucked up than Gilda!

I'm pretty sure there's gonna be a Talent Show and they will regret losing Vinyl

Confessionals in reality shows always bothered me because of the anachronism; they're supposed to provide a running commentary, but in the back of your head you know they had to be recorder long before or long after the fact. That said, I kind of wish I watched more reality shows so I could better appreciate this.

Also, Spike's hammer turns into a shovel mid-sentence. So close to flawless.

another great chapter

Scootaloo: I don’t know why, but for some reason, I find that really insulting.

That made me LOL way too hard!

how can anyone like gilda? honestly

>>2674126741

how can anyone like dash? gilda is awesome, brash and confident, so is dash, nuff said

Vinyl, NOOOO!

NOT VINYL! She was my third favourite pony in the series of FiM!

Dang, I was really hoping to see some more character development for Scratch. Oh well. I'm still enjoying this story immeensley

Why did nopony think of this before, this is amazing

I like how people are saying that Vinyl was one of their favourite characters in season one when she got even less screen time than Luna. Anyways, MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRR! Please?

new chapter! It's good, and I like the references you have to both the fandom and the shows

it's based off of. I do however, think that it kinda sucked for vinyl to get voted off... She's my favorite background pony that gets no lines... I wouldn't consider scoot a background pony because she shares a few episodes as the main character with the rest of the cmc. Oh well, hav fun with writing the rest!

>>2796827968 Thanks very much; using references, even if brief, are quite fun. And, believe me, it pained me as well to eliminate Vinyl, but...who else deserved to go? Gilda, who shockingly has gained a brain, laid out what made most sense to the team, and, if you ask me, the unicorn that (so far) has proven she can't really do anything other than being a disc jockey...was Vinyl. Trust me, I love ALL the characters that are in this story; even Fluttershy, whom is far down my list. However, don't worry; maybe, just maybe, Vinyl will come back to the game...

>>2807228072

Someone will come back.

Chris cheated, bringing back Eva and Izzy.

are you going to keep writing?

>>2821828218

Notice the delay of 3 days between chapters.

Wait.

another 3 days passed.

And no chapter.

Trollestia strikes again?

Nice one. I thought the thing about pinkies dream was hilarious. I didn't get it at first, but on e I looked back over it I got it and it was funny.

Im STILL holding out that Vinyl will somehow return mid-season just to cause some more Pony Drama. Didn't really see enough of her, in my opinion. Great chap, I wish Diamond tiara got voted off

As soon as you brought up the point that Spike is the only male competitor on the island, I instantly thought to myself "that's right, he be pimpin'".

poor sweatie bell :( she made a moistake i do hope she has a better time at home and is't ridaculed

Wow, Gilda totally cool here. Magical Misfits FTW!

So, we've got Trixie as Heather and Cheerilee as Beth/Lindsay.

Awesome!

Have you submitted this to EqD? It's easily one of the most entertaining fanfics I've ever read, and more bronies deserve to know about it.

it cant be... my whole life i have waited for this crossover... now it is finally here... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>2946729467 Yes, indeed I did. Do you want to know what they had to say to me about this? This is what they said, word for word:

There are some complaints about the characterization on this one, primarily in Discord.  He is very difficult to write, and this doesn't feel like Discord.

I have watched an episode or two of this crossover, and I understand where you are coming from on the crazy language, but this is still pony.. so you might want to make it more pony!

Anyway have the pre-reader response.

----------------------

This is leaving a pretty sour taste in my mouth right off the bat - the characterization is god-awful. The author completely fails to capture the magic or personality of Discord, and Pinkie shows up within the first page and encourages his yet unstated evil scheme... yes, she was more sympathetic to chaos than her friends, but she still didn't support him in any capacity...

The description is not terrible, but very informal in parts, using words like 'wacked' and 'techy' that don't have any place in formal narration. The dialogue is also really flat, written without regard for the character speaking it.

This story is a problematic instance of many problems without a clear cut solution in sight. I could theoretically give it a pass based on competent storytelling, but it just feels so amateurish...

I guess just say turn it down for now due to lack of proper characterization and poorly constructed narrative tone. The dialogue also needs sprucing up in regards to making it feel more like speech and less like outspoken internal narration. Miraculously I don't recall seeing any grammatical errors, so kudos for that, guy deserves a pat on the back.

So, apparently, I'm not that good and all of you who are enjoying this are blind and can't see how terrible it is. I really did want it on there, but...well, nothing I can do. I'm not changing the way I write, since I think I do a great job, and no one else has complained otherwise. Thanks for the support, though; I'm glad that people like you can enjoy things and get a smile at it without thinking it's so terrible.

This is a very fun read. I can't wait for more.

Oh Spike,you peverted little dragon! I know what you're up to...(Well not really,but it's fun to pretend right?) I am really enjoying this,so keep up the good work!

3 things:

1. (Twilight: Can you BELIEVE her? No gratitude whatsoever, and then she up and accuses me of somehow sabotaging her? Seriously? *she crosses her arms and frowns* Trixie is a piece of work!)

ponies have arms?

2.HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LOVE THIS FIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

3.i sense you are going to do something special with that unicorn that was mentioned at the start of this fic (ya know, the EVIL one that whas traped here! I sense his freedom imminent)

Just as a little note to anyone wondering, like the over-exuberant comment before mine pointed out, when it says "arms", it basically means that they're either leaning back and sitting down, or they're on their hind legs, and "arms" refers to their front forelegs, since...well, they're TECHNICALLY their arms, at least in my eyes. So, when Twilight crosses her arms, she's sitting down and crossing her front forelegs. Just wanted to clear that up.

Discord with a Television? The worlds are doomed. Just wait until he sees Ranma 1/2.

>>2680226802 um no...gilda is a bitch dash is not...a bit cocky yes but she dosn't theaten ponys so she can win

>>2951829518

As I said, he be pimpin'.

>>2949429494 Wow, I'm really sorry to hear that. Honestly, part of me has to wonder whether they were reading the same story I was.  

But it's their loss I suppose. There are obviously still a lot of people enjoying this story, so don't let it dissuade you.

>>2969129691 In case you're curious, this is what how I responded to what they said above:

More pony? I really don't understand what you mean by that. I've watched every single episode, I've read a ton of fan-fictions, I've studied and watched and re-studied every single character...whatever I'm doing wrong, I don't understand, since I KNOW I know all the characters. I think it's just different perspectives, since no one else has complained. And I've never found details to be very important or even needed; too many bog down a story and make it unreadable and boring, while too few makes it awful. I feel like I have somewhere in the middle, which is what I feel is the best. And dialogue is actually my specialty, so I don't see what I could really do different with that, having improved on it over the past 13 years I've written. And I know how each character talks; once more, I've studied them all. I wouldn't just write something that I don't know about; no idiot would do THAT.

I'm sorry that you didn't like it. Whether or not you ever approve it is up to you; I'm writing 26 episodes/chapters no matter what and posting them on FIM-Fiction anyway and I'm proud of how I write. I don't really plan to change how I write, either, since it's how I've always written and no one else has ever said that I do anything glaringly wrong. Yes, I would love to have my story on Equestria Daily, but judging from what you've said, I really don't see how I could do anything else to make this "better". I'm happy with it, my other readers are happy with it, and I just like to make others happy and smile and laugh. In the least, thanks for actually reading through them. Sorry for wasting your time.

But, thanks for being such a kindhearted person an avid reader; it means a lot to me to find so many people interested in what I write!

>>2973129731 Well, for what it's worth, I at least gave you a recommendation on TV Tropes. Unfortunately, there isn't really much more I can do, apart from enjoying your work and posting encouraging comments.

So....just keep up the good work I guess

This is atrocious, I do hope you find some other distraction and this is swept away with all other refuse.

Haven't read and I already tracking this because this was my favorite show  as a kiddier me

>>2526625266I thoght her name was ditzy because of the winter wrap up episode

this is such a f***ing awesome story!!! if only someone would make it 20% cooler() and animate it

Oh.

Oh god.

all this is so frickin funny continue ^^

keep em comin

>Uh…wait…besides Discord…am I the ONLY male on this island?

Spike finally realized situation.

>What if we all had been naked?

They are naked like 99.9% of the show.

One word: AWE-SOME!!!

I just thought of something that would be funny as hell: one of the characters gets absolutely terrified of one of the others like when Bridget was on Eva's hit list, but instead of them voting the other character off, it shows them in the voting booth saying "I vote for myself; I want to get the heck out of here."

I just love it how Discord talks to Pinkie Pie

I feel so bad for the magical misfits i mean everyone basically hates Gilda and Trixie none of them get along, and with the Royal Ruffians there are like no rivals going on there just sort of chilling there while everyone on the other team hates each other

>>3074930749 Well, I think it's a pretty safe assumption that the Ruffians won't be able to keep it up forever....

>>2949429494  Shoot, that stinks...I'm becoming more and more perplexed by the standards of Equestria Daily, and I'm beginning to suspect it has more to do with the personal opinions of the pre-reader who happens to read your story than more objective criteria.  Which isn't to say I don't get valid criticism from them, but then they'll say someone wasn't in-character or something that seems solely a matter of personal taste.  Personally, I think you've done a great job capturing Discord's character while at the same time altering his demeanor just enough to fit the role of Chris from Total Drama Island, which you need to seeing as this is a parody.  My guess is the pre-reader who read your story just had a very specific idea of how Discord was "supposed" to act.

Well, your story seems to be pretty popular on this site at the moment, so I wouldn't worry about EqD. Their loss.

>>3198031980 Yeah, something tells me that you're right. They didn't mention a single thing about the story itself; all they mentioned was the literal stuff. I have to agree with you that I don't think the pre-reader really knew what he or she was talking about in regards to what type of story this is. I mean, just today, I picked a random story with Trixie on Equestria Daily and gave it a read. In my opinion, Pinkie, Rainbow, Twilight, and Gilda were ALL very out-of-character, but the story was on there anyway. It's things like this that really perplex me indeed...but, yes, it does seem that my story is popular here, which I am very happy and proud about. I'm interested in seeing how many total views or comments I get by the end of the 26 episodes I'm planning; I'm excited to find out!

MORE!!!!!!!!!!

(P.S. please don't make Rarity out...PLEASE )

hey man. i recently found you after seeing you comment over at 'Between a Rock and a Hard Place' saying you were doing a series. i was very pleasantly surprised to find that it was a crossover between total drama island and fim with discord being the host. so far im really enjoying the series and am looking forward to seeing more. keep on writing brony!

I don't know why I did this, but I started making an edgic on this fanfic. I'm a Survivor fan so I decided to watch this. If you want to see the edgic, here it is.

http://shadow0knight.deviantart.com/art/TMPI-Edgic-268394639

If you get confused with it, just read the description below the drawing. I'll update Episode 2 later on......

I'm just hoping the ending won't be "no one wins in the end and Discord is defeated." That would probably not be a good idea....for me that is.  Keep it up. though.

Glad to see that this story isn't copying TDI story by story. That's a good thing, along with some Survivor elements.

Sad that Vinyl left. She had some character development potential, but oh well.....

I think you should also have some of the ponies be a bit more comlex like Survivor in a mastermind way, but still keep the elements of TDI and MLP. That's just a suggestion. But keep it up.

And I just updated to Episode 3.

>>3365033650 Yes, a lot of people are sad that Vinyl left...ironically, no one cares about Sweetie Belle. But, do not worry; she MIGHT come back in the future, and/or she'll be in future seasons of this show. Oh, and yes; I'm trying to mix in all elements of Survivor, Total Drama Island, and My Little Pony. There's things I like and don't like about all three shows, so I'm trying my best to make them work. And...at the moment, it's kinda hard for any of the ponies to be a mastermind...at least an evil one; there's honestly not a real "evil" pony/character on the show, since Trixie and Gilda aren't as evil as they are rude and arrogant. But, I'm trying my best, don't worry! Oh, and nice job; you rock!

Phew. Finally caught up to Episode 4.

I wasn't surprised Sweetie Belle went home, but glad to see some of the characters are being a bit more stragetic like Survivor, which I like, but keeping them in character at the same time.

And also glad to see the challenges are a bit original than the original TDI version. Keep it up. Don't worry, the edgic will be updated sometime tonight.

>>3232132321

You mean 26 episodes plus recap plus the episode "the money is lost, because shark eated it".
