    Coming Soon, Really

    I've been a bit under the weather since Trotcon, but feeling better now.

    This weekend I need to work on putting together some poni stuff for my niece (she's up here for her birthday), and my inability to do basic things makes that a bit difficult. So I may be delayed a few days on the Trotcon retro and the other long post I still really really want to share with y'all.

    Twilight's Enigmatic Clarification (AI ≠ LLM GAI)

    To head off any possible confusion, I've added a clarification to TEEE's story page and a note at the top of the chapter explaining that TEEE was not written using LLM generative AI (the story actually predates this technology by several years).

    I will be at Trotcon. Still alive.

    I remain alive, and as of June 13th am now the number of symmetries in a cube.

    I will be at Trotcon.

    Please contact me if you're there! (Or even if not, that's okay too.) :pinkiesad2:

    I might do an author party. I'll announce it with another post. Signal boost would be useful.

    I am still alive and also at AnthrOhio

    Sorry for disappearing. Ironically the thing I wanna talk about is the thing that keeps me from being here at FF or getting anything done. :facehoof:

Quotable Trick Contest № 16! · 8:54pm Nov 28th, 2021

THE LEADERBOARD (Unspent/Total Trick Points)

mishun: 5/5 TP :rainbowdetermined2:
Fylifa: 4/4 TP
BezierBallad: 3/3 TP
FanOfMostEverything: 2/2 TP
Light Striker: 1/1 TP
(* Ties are based on unspent points first, order in which max points were earned second.)

You can spend Trick Points in the Trick-Store to get all sorts of cool stuff! :pinkiegasp:


A rules refresher (click here for the full list):

  • You may only look at the stories via Fimfiction (no searching local storage, using the book, etc).
  • Using "find in page" in your browser is fine (but might not work due to how I'll post the quotes).
  • You are not permitted to search multiple pages at once via browser history, Google, plugins, etc.
  • First comment with the correct story and chapter (for chaptered stories) wins the Trick Point!
  • You may post only one guess. Editing your comment after posting it disqualifies you.

This week's quote:

"Great! Did you li​ke your pre​sent?" Pinkie ask​ed soft​ly, with a s​l​y g​rin.

Good luck, everypony! :pinkiehappy:

Er, I'm an idiot. I thought you meant The Laughter I Choose to Be. :facehoof: Yes, The Element of Surprise would be perfect for that line. Is a tricky one!
