Can't wait for more!

Thank you.
I had written most of it in one go, so the next few chapters are a bit off still.
I wasn't sure if it was alright or not. I'm sure there is definitely room for improvement.

Seeing all those thumbs down didn't help with my confidence, plus I discovered a sad song about scootaloo at the same time as posting this. So my self-esteem wasn't great for a day or so.
Thank you.

3327508 I don't even know why they would down vote it.

I first clicked on this story because I was curious about unusual number of pure downvotes it had collected before anyone had even had a chance to read it, actually!

The only reason I would have had for downvoting would have been that it felt a bit like a rough rough draft, but I don't think that was why. Maybe it was, I don't know.

Originally you said it was because of the organisation, plus it was awfully long for one chapter. I appreciated your feedback then and now.

I have since edited it so it flows better. I have asked my sister to go over it and suggest changes to the outline, She is taking a bit longer than I would like, so in the meantime I will continue writing the next chapter
I do feel I can do better,

Well, I originally thought that most of the downvotes were from people who had only read only the description and disliked it on some misguided principle, hence, "I'm betting most of those dislikes came from people who didn't make it past the intro..."
Even the more popular stories featuring certain things can get a visit from the dislike fairy when they hit the front page and fall under everyone's scrutiny.

The organization was just what I thought was the most important thing to focus on here. Nitty-gritty details and prose take a backseat to characters and overarching organisation/pacing/flow, I think, especially in the early stages of editing.
Putting together a clean final product in writing is a lot of work

but the most important thing at this stage is to keep writing -- worst case scenario, you still get a little more content to fiddle with and get a little better at it to boot.

Wow
I thought Bronies were better than that.

I agree with 3330745. I read because I was curious about the downvotes, especially with the Doc Ock arms (which is a sick concept). It wasn't downvote-worthy, but it did feel a bit messy at times. It could have used another proofreading. I also felt the main character was a bit overpowered.

this story is TL:DR in a nutshell, break the chapters up a bit and you'll be fine. the story itself is good, but it's too crushed up

Can't wait to see what happens next. :)
