August's voting for story ideas is complete! · 10:34pm Aug 17th, 2015
Each month, my $4 or more Patreon supporters get to decide on which new story I'll write, voting on a selection of ideas my $1 and up supporters have submitted.
August's poll is done, and the results are in.
I won't keep you waiting.
The winner is: Backdoor Omelette, with 17 points.
("[NSFW] Basicly a changeling and a male pony/another changeling with eggs being laid into the rear of the other", from an anonymous Patreon supporter.)
Tied for 2nd and 3rd place are Twilight's Guards and The 4000 Year Old Virgin. With 14 points each.
Tied for least popular are Dat's Wacist and Donkeys. With only 4 points each.
If you want to see the complete results to see how your favorite did, you can see them here. If you have any comments or suggestions about the voting method, feel free to tell me.
...and this is why Democracy is a terrible idea. :/

Heh. That's the risk I take.
The idea is surprisingly popular, though, so I'll roll with it. Maybe the story will be popular, too.
I can't see how this concept wouldn't be terrible and awful, which explains why it scored so low.
It's like you're trying to top the awfulness of the Rarity Blackface Fic. And it's working.

True, true.
I throw lots of ideas up and see what sticks.
Perhaps fortunately, many of the ideas on that list will never be written.

I kinda want to see it now, if only because I've got that cringing fascination one experiences when seeing a severed limb, or a car wreck.
What people fail to realize is that fiction isn't necessarily supposed to make you feel good; if it makes you feel uncomfortable, the author at least succeeded at making you feel something. In that respect I give you props for making us all feel something with that Rarity Fic.
For your next CringeFic idea, I suggest you do a thing where Applebloom, Granny Smith, and Big Mac catch Applejack in bed with five huge zebra stallions.
People who are not me would explode with rage.
People who are me would be perversely pleased with this turn of events.
Also, a wise man once said that the only thing worse than being spoken about, was NOT being spoken about.
I am much of his opinion.
Keep on truckin'.

Heh, yeah.
There's no such thing as bad publicity, just ask Trump!
