xjuggernaughtx's Top Down Review #11 - Brother · 3:30pm Sep 25th, 2015

Spoiler Free Summary

Brother is an excellent story about Big Mac’s commitment to family. It has strong prose that tilts a little toward grandiose from time to time, but is overall well done.

xjuggernaughtx's Top Down Review #6 - Derplicity · 10:42pm Aug 8th, 2015

Another test, it seems. Looks like I’m going to be getting a lot of those if I’m going to continue this review thing. Today the hurdle to clear is bias. You see, Skywriter is one of my favorite pony writers, so I’m inclined to see things he’s written favorable. Add to this that he’s just an all-around pretty great guy, and it’s hard not to be in his corner.

xjuggernaughtx's Top Down Review #1 - Insomnia · 5:29pm Jul 23rd, 2015

So I spoke earlier about maybe getting into reviews, so I thought I'd throw something together and see how it sits with people. I've been tossing around just what to review for a week or two, and I think I finally decided to tackle the Top Stories of All Time list. Plenty of people cover (or used to cover) the feature box. Lots of people cover new stories or popular stories, but I thought that there might be some interest in covering what we've determined to be the "best" stories.

Things I like so so should you #2: xjuggernaughtx's Resolution · 2:35am Aug 23rd, 2015

Hey there, so it's secret that I enjoy simple stories with simple writing. Quick enjoyable fluff, you could say.

But many times I want something with depth of flavor beyond one note. Something with world-building and imaginative prose to satisfy the appetite.

Something like this:

xjuggernaughtx's Top Down Review #5 - Yes, Apple Bloom, there *is* a Santa Hooves · 6:50pm Aug 3rd, 2015

Just posted this up only to have Fimfiction.net freeze on me. Good times as I do it all again...

I read this story last night, and by this morning, it had already dropped from the number one position. Things move quickly at the top. Good thing I finished it up when I did, since all the images that make up the story are blocked at my job. You can read the text transcript, but it’s not the same.

Badfic Slaughterhouse #24 · 8:21pm Sep 15th, 2015

So some of you have been wondering what happened to me? The short of it is that I’ve spent most of the summer in crippling pain. Several months, four doctors, a pile of medical bills, and a boatload of stress and anxiety later, I’m back to normal. With luck, it’ll stay that way.

And no, I’m not going to talk about it any further.

Today’s edition of Badfic Slaughterhouse features:
–Luna dancing on a pipe organ.
–Big Mac punching Blueblood. Repeatedly.
–Trixie being showered in spit.

Read It Later Reviews #34 – The New Crop, One Tenth-Bit, The Changeling of the Guard, Through the Eyes of a Soldier: Taking Hill 790, The Little Things · 10:41pm Oct 22nd, 2015

The Royal Guard is forever searching, forever seeking, and as one of its baleful eyes, so am I.

Though, ironically, I have about twice the pass rate of the average Royal Guard reviewer. So much for hating everything. :trixieshiftright:

Today we have three stories from the queue, along with two other pieces that I selected for my own reading enjoyment.

Today’s stories:

The New Crop by xjuggernaughtx
One Tenth-Bit by Estee

Read It Now Reviews #50 –Attention to Detail, The Applemancer’s Apprentice, I Don’t Like the Drugs (but the Drugs Like Me), Dear Princess Celestia, Constellations, Second Birthday · 9:38pm Aug 30th, 2015

Ordinarily, I do only five stories at a time in review sets unless I’m reviewing short story collections, but I decided to do six instead of five in this set so as to avoid compelling myself to try and read four more recent stories in lieu of some older ones I’ve been putting off reading.

Today’s stories:

Attention to Detail by Monochromatic
The Applemancer’s Apprentice by shortskirtsandexplosions

As I promised last week, I posted a new story yesterday:

Twilight asks Celestia for romantic advice.

You know, for a friend.

Because, really, who doesn’t love awkward conversations?
