Quotable Trick Contest № 29! · 7:02pm Mar 13th, 2022
(I'm sorry I'm a week late with announcing stuff. The fatigue is significantly worse since January, and this past week was monstrous. I had to cancel a lecture. This coming week is Spring Break, so hopefully I can recuperate. Expect content soon.)
THE LEADERBOARD (Unspent/Total Trick Points)
mishun: 10/10 TP
Fylifa: 6/6 TP *
BezierBallad: 5/5 TP
FanOfMostEverything: 4/4 TP
Light Striker: 3/3 TP
(* = Winner of last round! But they can't participate this time.)
(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!
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.
- You may post only one guess. Editing your comment after posting it disqualifies you.
- Whenever you win a contest you have to sit out the next contest.
First comment with the correct story and chapter (for chaptered stories) wins the Trick Point!
This week's quote:
Luna smiled back, hiding a blush beneath the umbra of her cheeks.
Good luck, everypony!
"The Sound of One Hoof Clopping", chapter "Koan 9: Gift of the Moon" (the one where Zecora commits treason)
“um bra”

Hmm. Do let me know if this means the zero-width spaces I've been using aren't showing up properly in a browser (as in, you can see spaces when you shouldn't).

The “bra” appears on a second line.
5643659
Ah, right. That's unavoidable. I don't think there's a non-breaking zero-width space in Unicode.
5643687
There's the word joiner, supposedly.
Good luck with your health.
5643923
I'm not sure what that is?
5643987
The zero-width non-breaking space that isn't a byte order mark! I think? U+2060.
mishun, you win this week's Trick Point!
