The snark is real
Glad this is still updating.
Leave it to an American to get metric wrong. Like, REALLY wrong. A foot is nowhere close to as big as a meter. A yard is closer, but still a bit shorter than a meter. (A yard being about 96cm, while a meter is a flat 100.)
You could actually use that to your advantage, though, as with a few sentences you could essentially have your character trick the princesses into giving him three times as much as the agreed upon amount.

I'm 65% sure that was intentional while I'll admit americans like me don't know shit about the Metric system we do know that both a yard and a meter are bigger than a foot that much is drilled into us so I'm fairly certain that's what at least the author was going for from the start our conduit on the other hand maybe not

Yeah, it actually was intentional. Sam was trained in a variety of skills, and basic metric conversions was one of them. I just didn't think it needed to be explicitly stated.
Of course i was, and still am, not an exceptional writer by any margin.
Ya know, re reading this for the 3rd time I just noticed that Celestia seems to be somewhat out of touch with her ponies. She asks Sam to apologize to all the guards but that's it, it's like she thinks once he apologized it's all water under the bridge when clearly they hold at least a little grudge for being beat on their home terf if nothing else
