I will never understand trends. · 2:59am Dec 7th, 2016
As faux pas as it is to ask about such things, mostly because I'm not sure if it counts as a sort of "does anyone know why I am so awesome?" kind of thing, which I can assure you, this is not, I am far too self deprecating for that, I am overcome with both lack of understanding and curiosity...
Apparently the popularity of Her Life Was In Your Hooves jumped significantly in the last 12 hours. Not a little jump, I mean a 30% increase in total upvotes. Considering the story has been up since May, it was kinda out of nowhere and I have no idea why the sudden increase occurred.
In a fit of utter clarity complete confusion, I asked myself several questions:
Was it posted to a group or something?
Did somepony horse-famous endorse it?
Did Great Cthulhu finally f'tagn my ia ia?
Now, a random 10 vote jump may not seem like much to most ponies, but to me it's huge. It took my most popular work to date and took it back to the popular list, which normally causes me to freak my frizz.
So I don't really know what else to say, other than:
Thank you to everypony who both favorited and up-voted Her Life Was In Your Hooves
Hey you, keep your ia ia to yourself!
I hate when those jumps happen. Sometimes, there'll be a link to a new site or something where your story was linked, but most of the time, in m experience, there's no reason for it, and you just have to wonder. D:
It could be that your wibbly wobbly effected your timey wimey thus views and votes were delayed. Even so... shake your ia ia for all it's worth!

Now try and figure out the recent jump in popularity of this, which I just found in the popular box today. :O
