It's been a long time since I did this list, but while my opinions of the princesses might not have changed (I still can't wrap my head around the premise of "The One Where Pinkie Pie Knows" and Princess Cadence's actions just don't make sense to me, at least when Princess Celestia was withholding information from Twilight, it was because she knew Twilight needed to reach the conclusion on her own to save the day. The existence of the Tanterbus may make Princess Luna's lessons
My comments on the season finale; spoilers below.
Haven't updated this one in quite a while because my opinions on the CMC hadn't changed since the end of Season 6, until now that is. There's actually something positive I can say about Season 8, and that's that it was able to change my opinions on some of the CMC for the better. As a quick note, I'm only including official CMC members from the show, so obviously Diamond Tiara and Pipsqueak don't count despite sharing episodes with the CMC. And Lilly Ambermoon and her sister don't count either,
If you've been attentive, you've seen that I've never even once mentioned cutie marks. Since half the ponies wear armours, it could have just been plain laziness on my part, but it's actually a choice.
So let met explain why there is no cutie mark in The Mare in the Warp, Battle Report and probably most of my future Warpony 40K writings.
“Seriously, that’s it?” Sid asked.
“What do you mean?” Starlight replied.
“That’s your emotional scarring backstory?! That’s your great tragedy?! Starlight, I had at least some of my morality and sanity literally taken away from me by a horrible accident with one of my inventions, and you’re telling me that you just lost one friend that caused you to act like this? Really? That’s all you got?”
One final update for the CMC, even though it's not an overall ranking and more how they fare after what Season 9 gave us to work with. Like with my mane eight ranking, there's a journal on my DeviantArt account if you want to see the overall rankings, specifically this journal. Like always this list is purely the result of my personal opinion so please respect it.
Hello again,
I have been thinking a lot about making compilation videos for FIM. Here is one about all the cutie marks Apple Bloom has ever had (https://youtu.be/x8PD0VkT0k8).
Here is a shorter one of all the fake CM's the CMC ever had (https://youtu.be/mO5lkaKe4tM).
Something has been bugging me. Admittedly it has been bugging me ever since I first watched The Cutie Mark Chronicles, but the recent season 5 finale has brought it back in full force.
It is time. Time to reveal what I hinted at in my review for "Growing Up is Hard to Do", the last Cutie Mark Crusaders episode.
My review for "The Big Mac Question" will come later, because first, I will talk about something far more important.
Now it happened. After a week delay due to health issues, the second chapter of "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity" is finally released and the fic is back on track!

And with this chapter, the first day of helping ponies with their cutie marks dawns for Applebloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle! There is not much else to say about this chapter, so, go and read it while it's hot!
The next chapter of "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity" is here! Get it while it's hot:

We see more dramatic events happening in this one as tension is rising for Dinky, before something unexpected happens..... To find out what it is, read Chapter 5 "Manifested Sorrow"!
Hello and good evening*, my dear readers!
The seventh chapter of "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity" is here now:
https://www.fimfiction.net/story/299751/the-strange-case-of-dinky-hooves-cutie-mark-curiosity
Unexpected things happen and the title of the chapter probably does not make it very hard to figure out what.
It has arrived. Sorry for the little delay, certain forced changes on the site have thrown me off-guard this week. But now it is here, Chapter 6 of "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity":
https://www.fimfiction.net/story/299751/the-strange-case-of-dinky-hooves-cutie-mark-curiosity
The plot is picking up more pace here and we get a better insight into Dinky's woes.
Here is a little heads-up about something I'm doing right now. I am currently revising the first chapter of "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity" because I will continue it soon.
I'm not talking about the release schedule yet, as I said here, this blog entry still has to come, but I wanted to let you know that the first chapter will be rewritten.
A new chapter of "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity" is here:
https://www.fimfiction.net/story/299751/the-strange-case-of-dinky-hooves-cutie-mark-curiosity
And here, Dinky has a strange and scary visitor. But this is all just a dream..... Right?
Here is now the promised announcement of the release schedule for "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity", the spiritual successor of "Aunt Millie" I talked about here!
Currently, I am still busy revising the first chapter, which is taking much longer than I thought, since I could find a lot of errors in there and keep finding new ones.
The cupcake muffin has landed. The fourth chapter of "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity" is now here for your reading pleasure:
https://www.fimfiction.net/story/299751/the-strange-case-of-dinky-hooves-cutie-mark-curiosity
After the dramatic event in the Hooves household, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle gather round with Dinky in the operation center again on the next day..... It is time for their first attempt to get Dinky a cutie mark.
It is out, Chapter 8 of "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity":
https://www.fimfiction.net/story/299751/the-strange-case-of-dinky-hooves-cutie-mark-curiosity
And since Dinky has a cutie mark now, of course she's getting a cute-ceanera..... But which foals is she going to invite to the party? Find out in Chapter 8!
Almost certainly not appearing in chapter V:
TWILIGHT SPARKLE (writes): "When we got to the library and Moongleam (as she has insisted we call her) saw the collection, she bounced around the room in a circle for a full minute, calling out 'Yes, yes, yes, yes!'. She seems very excitable to me. Is this normal for her species? Is it likely to happen oft-"
