Well, I liked it. It's cleaner, a lot easier to follow. It gave a bit more information concerning Vinyl's time at the University with Colgate and such. Very nice re-write. Anyone who has read the original can very clearly see an improvement in your writing. Proud of you. *single tear*

, nearly done with the rewrite of the history lesson
Thanks
It's a much easier read, for certain. I like it!
This is a pretty good rewrite! It will be nice to re-read an old favorite with a few new twists here and there.
Haha! That ending! I laughed XD thats so me when there's no bacon! And I can definitely see the improvement, I remember when I first read this story, it was a bit hard to follow but I knew I fell in love with this story. I can't wait for the updated chapters!! Keep up the amazing work!
But... but I wasn't done!
I'm sorry.
Best surprise of my day
so FUCK SLEEP and screw tests and work its time to read boys.
This is now my new headcanon for humanized stories where the people have magic, and it's not explained.
Also, it didn't update because they're totally going to feature this. Totally.
I feel like this kinda deserves it.
Because peeps dont know a good thing when they see it thats why
I will be honest i was mad when i saw the rewrite for this story but so far i like better then the first draft. especially this chapter, because it makes me think pinkie has to be related to pudding head now.
3168266
Well, the story did need some work on... and I kinda grew more confident in writing scenes that I wasn't sure to pull it off when I started to write
As for PuddingHead and Pinkie: I'll just say that his real name is the name of Pinkie's Dad on mlp wiki
thought the story was good as it was guess i was wrong wow great stuff keep it comin mon im lovin this
Wow, truly awesome! Your talent as a writer are getting better and better. This chapter is way more interesting than the original one because of how much detail you put into it. I'm very much liking this re-write. (Also, Lauren Faust is best pony)

This guy knows what's up. /)
Anyway, time to favorite!
Okay, a great chapter to be sure, but I'm thinking you need an editor.
I was seeing dozens of grammatical mistakes all throughout this.
it's kinda weird. i had just read-read all the stories, and now i'm reading a re-revised version of the first one. life's funny that way.
oh wow this rewriting is awesome cant wait for the next chapter
A very nice chapter once again. It always makes me smile to see how much your writing is improving through time. The only problem I find, although minor, is that some lines trip me up a bit and force me to re-read it. That being said, this re-write is leagues better than the original. Well done. (Unrelated Question. Please tell me you are still working on GTVS...)

I put GTVS on the side for the moment as I want to focus finishing the rewrite of this fic first (considering it's the beginning of my longest series) but As soon as it's done, I'm working on a GTVS update. (it also gives me time to think of new ideas for the next Update

And, once he's done rewriting this, I'm pretty sure that I'm going to be cleaning up errors in Summer at the Farm and early Equestria Games. That way, the whole story is accessible to more people.
So many changes to the fanfic it...it's too much
The more I read the more changes I have to make to the template for the fanfic reading auditions 
But all in all the rewriting is just fantastic!! 
3243485
, I didn't really thought about the changes you'd have to make
Oh, sorry about that
Yay! New chapter time!
I wonder... does Applejack practice a particular martial art for her fighting style, or is it just instinctual brawling?
3246308
She does boxing matches with Big Mac, Vinyl and CK but she doesn't practice a martial art (kinda street fighting style
)
More of an instinct thing
Wow, what a great way to start a Monday! Outstanding work yet again. Magic of Music was one of my favorite chapters and now it's even better!
The cellist nodded. “The strings of an instrument vibrate, thus making creating sounds.”
I don't know if that needs a comma or something, but that sentence didn't read just right to me.
3246394
urk a word has slipped through the net of editing
I actually like that you've introduced Rarity into this chapter where Applejack and Blueblood first confronted! I hope you're still going to keep that wine-tasting scene in one of the final chapters. That's one of my favorites, and it shows another softer side of Applejack!
3245423 Nah it's alright
The re-write is really great and the story line sounds more interesting than it did before 
3246375
So... she's basically making it up as she goes?
God save the poor soul she fights should she actually receive proper combat training. I'm predicting many greasy smears.....
This was great the story is still amazing if not more so I really love this universe. Makes me wish I was more creative or a better writer
Me gusta. Want moar.
i fucking squeed when i saw that this had updated!
nicely done and i love the extra content you added keep it up man
Just to be clear, I'm going to be commenting on how awesome your writing is every chapter. Now that that's out of the way, this chapter is awesome!
If you weren't already my favorite writer, you would have sealed the deal with the subtle Daft Punk reference.
I stumbled a bit on that sentence. Not sure what it needs though.
(Also, don't try to pretend that it was purely coincidence that you uploaded this chapter on Applejack Appreciation Day. I'm on to you.
x1000)
I miss the part where guards got along with AJ as they play poker while they were in the dungeon.
But I do enjoy the extended dialogue between Applejack and Rarity, especially on how AJ got roped into wearing a dress.
Just freaking amazing. Definitely my favorite chapter of this re-write. But of course, that will change. The later chapters are going to be awesome. Keep on writing!
Aww I miss the card game with the guards... I understand why you did it though.
Once again, you've topped the other rewritten chapters for awesomeness.
It makes more sense on how Rarity makes AJ a dress now, and I feel bad for Aj since she will be forever wrapped around Rarity's pinkie finger. 
Also, what size are these water bottles Twilight can barely lift?
I lift and carry for a good long while a 36 pack of water bottles, and my friends can lift/carry them for a short time as well, and we don't go to the gym.
Just how weak is Twilight? Is she really that bad off?

If I'd known, I might have kept it an extra day in editing just to be a troll.
3291746
, it's just Rainbow being a little mean (imagine all the large stacks of books she carries around) but since she's a very capable in magic, I kinda see it as she uses her levitation, which is a mighty strong, a lot more than necessary thus making people belief she's physically weak 
She's not that bad
3290060
Well, lucky me
It was Applejack Appreciation day?
3293278 that makes sense. And it would fit her character, why carry 5/7 books when you can move 20 or more with magic.
I was just starting to worry that she was a stick figure who could hardly do anything without magic (I know you posted the measurements and all that, but I'm a visual person when it comes to values of measure, so it's hard for me to completely understand it).

Well, now October is officially Applejack Appreciation Month. So, please don't troll and hold on to chapters for the whole month. You wouldn't want to make people sad would you?
3301855
No....
If it was just one day I would so do it though.
3301860
I'm glad to hear that. I can put my tissues away now.
So I really like this story, and it's my first time reading it, and I noticed you're trying to edit your stuff. I figured I should try to help, so I'll post any errors I find.
Here's the only one I found this chapter:
"Applejack shouted in fury while slapping a few times the prince as he was calling the guards for help." better would be "Applejack shouted in fury while slapping the prince a few times as he was calling the guards for help." or even leaving out "a few times" to get "Applejack shouted in fury while slapping the prince as he was calling the guards for help."
Finally, doesn't it make more sense to punch someone on the ground, especially for someone of Applejack's character?
Anyway, I hope this helps, and I love the story.
Pymp dar bass Vynil!!!! Also, sorry to do this AJ, but.....Dat ass.
Very, very nice chapter. Also, good job with the editing G3K0771. I didn't see anything that slipped through the cracks.
The part with Fluttershy and the invaders made me laugh out loud. Nicely done.
Though, one thing stuck with me in the back of my mind while reading this chapter. I love how you introduced the manticore situation early and gave a subtle hint at it in the section before it. That was very well written. ( I may be 100% wrong ) But, I think it sort of makes a "hiccup" in the story when it goes into the sequel "A summer at the farm". If I'm not mistaken, the manticore situation was revealed there too. I think it was from Celestia to Luna. I would think that after Fluttershy learns this information, she would tell someone about it, eventually getting back to the princess. That's just my opinion though and like I said, I might be completely wrong considering you are still re-writing this.
Side note: I went back to your profile so I could remember the name of the sequel to this and I saw that update you posted. You're going back to GTVS? I literally could not be happier. I yelled out loud when I read it. Considering GTVS is my favorite fic on this side ( and I've read University Days, Two's Company, Three's a Crowd, The Snow on Her Cheek, Allegrezza, etc. ) I am incredibly excited to see what you'll do with it.
Sorry for the long comment. Just, so many emotions.
