Announcement: Q&A #3 and (Possible) Bonus Chapter (plus a question) · 5:29pm Jan 14th, 2013
That's right! There's gonna be another Q&A chapter, this time, before a triumvirate of rap battles! 
Be sure to send your questions in! (note: not for me, this time, for the ponies that have rapped/starred in the story so far)
The bonus chapter is gonna be different from before. While that one was a dream-sequence/charity event, this one coming up (if there's enough people interested) will be a party before a wedding to congratulate Enigma and Vinyl on getting engaged. Of course, there will be rap battles, as that was how the couple first met. 
If you'd like your OC to show up and/or rap, please let me know! 
Now, for the question: I have two of the 'triumvirate of rap battles' planned, but should I try stretching them out, instead? You know, make the story longer, have more rap battles before the (possible) hiatus? Or should I keep it the way it is, where the three major rap battles are one right after the other? 
Also, just to clear up a little misunderstanding: OC's are not allowed to be in official rap battles. That doesn't mean they aren't allowed to be in the story, but I will have to reign in anyone's OC who has a crush on one of the Mane Six...mostly because it's likely to cause outrage amongst the other readers. 
Don't forget about the contest. The deadline is February 14th, and there's only been one entry, so far! 
I patiently await your entries.~
Obligatory mention of the list of title cards link and inquiry of who wants to try out for rap battle parts but haven't sent in their auditions. I actually have a tumblr for the tryouts, now! erb-of-mlp.tumblr.com Of course, you'll probably have to post your audition on your own tumblr thingy and send me a link to it...not sure if that's easier, actually.
List of title cards I would like to do:
Rover
Spot
Fido
Ahuizotl
Enigma (I'd like to have a better one made, some time soon )
I could easily do these with GIMP, but I can't think of any backgrounds for the title cards...well, except Ahuizotl... ...and I would like more vectors for my OC. 
If someone could make some for me, I'd greatly appreciate it...or teach me how to make some, as the tutorials make no sense to me. 
Have a nice day!
Enigma out.~
I am not certain regarding the question, but good luck nonetheless.
Didn't you post this, already?
I think most people would prefer you to stretch the story a bit, but you must know if you can bring up the time and energy to do it; as for the Bonus Chapter: I think I know SOMEPONY who would like to try to break the tie between you and him from last time. I think he's a Captain or something...
As for the questions: Breaburn, how'd the honeymoon go so far? (That's all I got.)

Hmm possible bonus chapter may I submit an OC?
Now I guess i should make a submition to the Q&A so here goes
Question for Snips and Snails: how did you two get your hooves on the Millenium Puzzle in the first place?
I wouldn't mind submitting my OC, but two problems with that, one I can't write rhymes, if I could I would of had Zecora appear in my story by now. And two, it just wouldn't work with the storyline of my series.
Question for Fluttershy: With your alter egos of F.S. Braveheart and Glaze, have you considered that you might have multiple personality disorder?

Well, aren't I in a bit of a dilemma now. Do I submit my OC, or don't I? On the one hand, I would like to have him rap. On the other hand, you'd probably want my help writing for his rap (and rightly so, since even I can hardly stand writing for him), and I'd probably cock it up something fierce. On the other other hand, this could be a great opportunity to learn about how to write raps from someone who has made many good ones. On the other other other hand, I'm a massive twat who procrastinates a lot, and will probably never get to writing it, getting my OC removed at best, and delaying the chapter at worst. On the other other other other other hand (yes, I know I skipped one, but this is a negative point, so shut up) my OC is very... unique. I don't want to ruin the chapter with my characters backstory so the reader has any idea what the bloody piss he is going on about, and deny the other characters the time they deserve more than my OC. Decisions, decisions. I guess I'll go for submitting him, since I can't make wise choices, apparently... Now how does one go about doing that?
Also, I'm sorry for the length of this comment. I just watched a lot of Zero Punctuation, and thus am sort of in that mindset.
Having my OC in here would be fun but alas just like everyone else writing raps is not my domain. I could do it but it would be hard as hell for me............. Oh yeah a question: (to Soarin) According to rap 23 you fucked Spitfire, have you done any other mares in Equestria?

i was gonna use that! 
...well, partially... 
...darn it, why did you have to say that?
711138
i've seen almost every one of his reviews (i know there's one i haven't seen, i just need to find it!).
i absolutely love zero punctuation!

this is for everyone who's despairing over their lack of ability to rap, or something...oh, and the raps can be against anypony who has rapped so far, and wasn't a major villain. the oc's who are submitted will first be compiled into a list of 'guests' and 'performers'.

to all those who want to submit an oc, please send them in a private message.
also, just to be clear, your oc can show up, but they don't have to rap during the bonus chapter!
thank you for taking the time to read this.
711187 YOU CAN CHANGE IT TO CARD GAMES ON MOTORCYCLES!!!!!
If you know what I mean
711383
nah, i'm just gonna go with something else that's just remotely similar.
Vinyl, whats gonna happen with you and E now?
711079 And I though I was a YU-GI-OH fanatic
Sure, sign me up to be in it, since I missed out last time. As for the question: not if it feels stretched. If feels good in its current state, leave it.
Go with it please. I have an OC you can use if interested
Stretch it out only if it comes easily to you. We wouldn't want you overworking yourself for no real reason.
I wish any of the OCs I have could be there, even as guests, but that would cause innumerable problems on your end trying to explain backstory and give a viable reason why any one of or the entire group of powerful alicorns are attending this party. [selfpromotion] If anyone is interested in learning a bit about these alicorns, you can find what you're looking for in the prologue of my story, Mind vs Matter.[/selfpromotion]
Perhaps Empty Sound should get a shot at this one...
Also, my question for Fluttershy is "Why exactly are you so shy? Did you have some sort of traumatizing event in your past?"
Note that the answer to this question will determine who I choose to enter in the Bonus Chapter.
Are you a fan of anime? If so, any particular ones?
