Friendship is Card Games: Imposing Sovereigns IV · 1:07pm February 18th
It’s that time again. Let’s cap off the latest addition to the dynasty with collectable cardboard representations of each entry, as per tradition.

If you’re looking for “Father Knows Beast,” it should be just under this one in your feed. If you’d like to see an example of disunited nations even worse than “School Daze” and far, far funnier, read on.
Another contest in the books means another blog to commemorate all the entries. Let’s see how it all fares. See here for an easy-to-parse list of what inspired what. And remember, names have to match exactly for the “legend rule” to apply, so self paradoxes are easy in Magic.
“Oh FoME!” you cry. “Who is BEST AT PONIES?”
Well, that’s really a matter of opinion, but I can certainly tell you who claims to be. And he has strong evidence on his side.
We come the penultimate Moonstuck card blog… not counting the epilogue. If it’s after the end of the main story, does that make it postultimate?
In any case, let’s go see what Woona’s been up to.
My copy of Lyra and Bonbon and the Mares from S.M.I.L.E. has yet to arrive. I can only assume that Princess Twilight is still processing the Freedom of Information request. As the gears of Equestrian bureaucracy (and the USPS) turn, I’ll move up what would have been next week’s card blog.
This week, we have one of those awkward one-shot comics sitting between two multi-issue storylines, made all the more awkward by a marked absence of other comics to pair it with. As such, we’re drawing from one of the shorter stories folks have volunteered for cardification as well.
Happy Valentine’s Day! I’d love to discuss the IDW Cheesepie story, but the second half isn’t out yet. As such, we turn to a far more twisted form of love…
This week, we return to d20 Pony, the ongoing adventures and explorations of Trailblazer. (It’s also my birthday, but that has little bearing on the cards. )
This week, it’s time to look back a bit and consider the third in the noble line of Imposing Sovereigns.
We return to the ongoing adventures of Trailblazer, deep in the thick of things on the distant island of Midgard.
After more than half a year of G5-engendered delays, we are finally able to return to Moonstuck, just in time for the final boss fight. Let’s throw down.
Sorry for my relative silence lately — I've been getting sucked into family and housecleaning thanks to the recent holiday, plus things have gotten crazy in the best possible way at work. Later this week is the vote for a $16 million grant application my employer has been coaxing through the wheels of bureaucracy for the past three years, and all the signs point to yes. We've been working sort of in startup mode for the past few years, and this is when everything suddenly starts to pay off.
This is gonna be a long post, so here's the tl;dr version up here: Chapter 130 of Songs of the Spheres is going to be a Homestuck style video with music and art, and I am currently trying to pay for that art and realize I'm gonna need more cash to do that. So if you want to help make the 130th chapter, the climax, of SotS as good as it can be, you can help! Either through commissioning me or
This week, we’re branching out a little, to a library under a tree and the story that the RCL very scientifically determined was the best story on the site. Spoilers ahead for TEL and the early bits of TEK.
As promised, this week I present a collection of cards based on the entries to the second Imposing Sovereigns contest. As with last time, the name of each card links to the story that inspired it. See here for an easier to scan breakdown. Now, let’s get right to the cards.
Ah, the abridged series, LittleKuriboh’s gift to fandoms everywhere. And when it comes to ponies, the first name that comes to mind is Sherclop Pones’s Friendship is Witchcraft. Or the Mentally Advanced Series. Or…
Look, we’re covering the birthplace of Sweetie Bot.
It’s time for more from Trailblazer, and this time the story’s really getting into high gear.
Look, Estee noted that I design Magic cards in a recent blog. Then I mentioned in a comment on that blog that I had a few designs based on the Continuum. One thing lead to another, and here we are.
This one’s a bit unusual. It comes as a request from SirNotAppearingInThisFic (and yes, I do plan on doing the official chapter books, including one next week.) I didn’t really know what I was getting into when he suggested, but having taken a look, this does work.
