I do what must be done. Also, I like comic books and cartoons.

Too short.
iambrony.jsmart.web.id/mlp/gif/155010__UNOPT__.gif?1353238620
I have a habit of using a gif for everything. Like it?
Yes, and it's so short because I'm awaiting reader suggestions as to who gets to meet themselves in the next chapter. I can't write it until I know who people want to self-meet! It's a self-imposed rule.
Okay, the little asides in parenthesis aren't humorous, they're seriously distracting. Use a footnote, or just remove them.
Also, this whole concept was better when Conner Cogwork wrote it. Literally years ago. Plagiarism doesn't do you any good turns.
1778829 Conner Cogwork wrote "On A Cross and Arrow," right? That's about the Mane 6 journeying into the stallion-verse, and one by one meeting themselves. This is quite different. I intend to go into much more detail about these things than he did. In fact, I'm actively trying to make it quite different from his. Also, you assume that because I've used the same names (so far) and include both extra-dimensional travel and r63 that I'm using the same concept? For shame. I'm drawing more on Epic Rap Battles of MLP than On a Cross and Arrow.
1778878
Well, yes. It is quite different. Connor can write readable prose.
1778829 Cogwork didn't invent the idea of rule 63 crossovers
1778935 Thank you.
1778935
No, no he didn't. He did however write On a Cross and Arrow which this fic is a fairly obviously derivative work from.
Originality is overrated, I guess.
1778914
You know you could try putting it a bit nicer ya know...
1778878
Unfortunately Spiteout here does have a point. The mane six meeting their R63 selves has been done to death over and over, same as just about any other common scenario. The trick her is writing the story well enough, or having a decent enough twist added in.
I have not read this, so I don't know just how bad the writing might actually be. However, that doesn't mean criticism has to be mean, even if it is negative.
Should have made ch1 and ch2 one chapter
1778955 This story seems to have very little to do with ACaA. The entire context and story are completely different.dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/shrug_Queen_Chrysalis.png
1778962
You're right, I probably could be. On the other hand, I generally prefer to deliver honest criticism when a work has serious issues, as this does.
1778962 I'd like to point out that this fic actually focuses more on the background and secondary characters, as I'm pretty sure we all know how the Mane 6 react to meeting each other. I will have to put in chapters for them, you understand, but... they'll probably be spread out.
1778955 I don't think it's that derivative, I took some names, the concept of Celestia and Solaris knowing each other, and that's about it... I think. Besides, I encourage my editor to do a bit of revision as well, so that may explain some of the problems. I feel like I ask too much of her as it is, so I'm just gonna wait to send this story for editing/revision, okay? I know I'm not gonna do it.
Sweet Jeebus.
1778829
While i do agree about the asides in parenthesis, you definitely could've worded that much more constructively.
1778914
This doesn't help him become a better writer either.
1778987
While not untrue, you don't offer any ways for the author to better himself either.
1779053
What do you want me to tell him? 'Hey, go write something original?'
I mean, between Connor Cogwork's On a Cross and Arrow and Alexstraza's The 63rd Rune, which I had sadly forgotten about until I was reminded a moment ago, this is a story concept that's been done. 63rd Rune is actually older than Cross, now that I recall.
1779096>>1779053>>1778962 Will you people shut up? Much as I enjoy watching this petty squabble, I'd much rather get some suggestions on who to write the next chapter on!
1779027 You, sir have the funnies comments I have ever seen.
"Prepare your trainus." <That's gold.
I shall examine this on the year's begin and observe improvements. For now, I see a something that may prove interesting. Yeah, not very helpful but that's all I got for now.
1779107
Octavia/Octavian
Vinyl Scratch/Vinyl Scratch (it sounds either or to me)
Lyra/Harpo
Bon Bon/Gum Gum (yeah I got nothing)
Shining Armor/Glimmer Shield
Mi Amore Cadenza/Seriously, how the hell are we supposed to R63 this one?
1779227 I actually have the names pre-made. I thought about doing a coltdub series on youtube a few months ago, and compiled this huge list of names. I can post it if that helps.
But, here are the names that i came up with for those three characters:
Octavia: Concerto
Vinyl Scratch: Turn Table
Lyra Heartstrings: Harpo Pluck
Shining Armor: Glowing Bracer (I kinda like yours better, though)
Mi Amore Cadenza/Cadence: J'Amie Tout Le Monde/Lemmy (That's French for Mi Amore Cadenza, or "I Love Every" in English)
shining armor/ glass slipper (i like THIS better)
i just call mae cadence...cresendo
and the male babs see is Bubba....like my cousin in RL we nammed bubba
1779267
I've never heard of Concerto as a R63 of Octavia, only Octavian, or Octavio.
Turn Table works.
Hapro Pluck as well.
I think it's generally accepted among the fandom that Shining's R63 is Glimmer Shield.
And look what I found right next to that: Prince Tempo
Hell here: have the whole damn list they put together.
1779388 Well, these are my names. And, uh, Tempo? The full form of that has what to do with love, exactly? That's what I thought.
1779416
Cadence' name was attributed to a musical term, not love. Hence Cadence becomes Tempo.
If you had clicked the link, you would have seen the rest of the name they came up with.
I'm not saying your names are bad, but some might not like them because they don't think they match the original well enough.
I'm not saying anything's wrong with the names you've come up with, just trying to help you out is all.
Now neither of us will be virgins!
1779450 Cadence's full name literally means "I Love Every," did you not see me explain that?
I appreciate your assistance, and I'm having trouble with Soarin'. Any suggestions for him?
1779496
R63 of Soarin' could be Aerial. Like aerial maneuvers of aerial ace.
All the different articles Wikipedia has on 'cadence'.
Article specific to musical cadence.
A friend of mine mentioned that cadence might translate to love in a different language, if this is true, then I'm sorry for sounding like such a forceful prick. Its just one of my pet peeves when it seems like someone keeps getting something wrong, especially when I'm trying to help them.
(I speak English as my first language, specifically American English, seeing as how there is at least some difference between American & British English, I figured I should mention it.)
1779134
1779503 Meh. It's true that "Cadence" might, but "Cadenza" definitely does... I think. Italian's a weird language.
MOAR Shipping!!
1779607
Umm, in Italian maybe, that sounds right I guess, as for what 'cadenza' means in English, there was only the one article this time: Cadenza
1779629 yeah... I'm not gonna read that. I just know what the full thing means. You see, back when I was first writing the list, I ran "Mi Amore Cadenza" through Google Translate, then ran the translated phrase through again, this time into French, and Bam! J'Amie Tout le Monde.
1779656
XD Never said you had to read the articles. Just looking at the pages on the other side of the links provided should have been enough to get my points across.
Tests translations:
Auto detect says original name is Italian, okay fair enough. Mi Amore Cadenza
Spat back out as English and we get: I Love Cadence Close by not quite, and I'm not done yet.
Set output to French, (AKA the language of love, >_>):
'Mi Amore Cadenza' becomes Mi Amore Cadenza (Doesn't matter if I set the input to English or Autodetect, same output either way.)
'I Love Cadence' becomes J'aime Cadence
I just figured I'd spell out wtf just happend for those that are too lazy to follow along with that last bit. I'm not sure if I should say translating that into French is clever or cheating. I would like to know just what you input into the translator to get it to spit 'Tout le Monde' out after 'J'Amie', unless that was something else you were saying.
On a different note, was that meh directed at Soarin' R63 Aerial? Otherwise what's your thoughts on that idea?
(If you can't tell, I'm incredibly bored at the moment, otherwise this might not have dragged out as long as it has, sorry.)
1779755 Okay. I think that I'll keep J'amie. Now, the meh was not directed at Ariel, and I've actually added it to the list. Now, who would you like the next chapter to be about?
1779784
I already gave you three choices duh. XP
1. Shining Armor & Princess Cadence
2. Octavia & Vinyl Scratch
3. Lyra & Bon Bon
That is the order I think the three groups would meet their R63 selves.
Oh... Oops.
1779134 Getting a comment from Regidar on your story is a gift to be cherished. I, myself, have never been able to experience such pleasures, but that's good, because that usually means your story is bad.
1780066 What?
1780077 I was talking to that guy I quoted about Regidar.
Well, this was interesting.

Okay, actually just read the story. The writing itself isn't too bad actually, though the plot is near nonexistent. (I've read through worse and still liked it.)
As for pacing it does seem rather rushed, even if you are going to concentrate on background ponies more, getting there should use just as much detail.
Seeing as how I now know where the flip the meetings will begin to occur, I believe a new list of encounters is in order.
0. The rest of the mane six -- Just get it out of the way with a party, tell pinkie one is needed, but the reason is a surpise, and the only ones attending are their close friends.
1. The CMC -- Umm, would that be better or worse than the meeting between Pinkie Pie & Bubble Berry?
2. Big Mac & Granny Smith -- Hope granny/gramps don't have heart attacks.
3. The Cakes, all four of them.
4. Derpy, Dinky, Sparkler, Dr. Whooves -- Bonus points if you have the Dr.s go off on a wibbly wobbly timey wimey tangent.
5. Vinyl Scratch & Octavia -- Do they live in Ponyville? Who cares! THE WUBS HAVE BEEN DOUBLED!!!
6. Trixe, Gilda, Flim & Flam -- (Presto, Gilroy, Shim & Sham) That's a screaming train wreck straight out of Tartarus if I ever saw one.
7. Aloe & Lotus -- Cause why not?
8. The Flower Trio -- (The Fern Trio?) The Horror! The Calamity!
9. The mane six & Spike's pets. -- Either Angel & Opal would mellow the fuck out, or its double terror time.
I NEVER REGRET ANYTHING!!!
1780911 I agree, I don't really see a plot anywhere, that being said though Sanchez is probably getting the R63 characters implemented before having something happen. Although, Sanchez should focus on plot a bit more, but still introduce us to new R63 characters, thats just my opinion on the plot. Good Job though on making the story.
This story is cute and has potential. Unlike Whiteout I do think it's possible to write an r63 story without it being utterly derivative. The pacing feels a bit rushed and is sometimes confusing (Understandably so) I'd suggest finding one of the editing groups on here and asking for a hand. It can't hurt and can definitely help improve your story.
I'll keep an eye on this.
1780911 I believe some instances of r63 Dr. is 'The Professer'.
(Joke) Alt. Title: I Am He Is You Are She Is You Are Me And We Are All Rule 63'd
1805200 For the story or the second chapter?
1805210
Unless I put "Chapter" between "Alt." and "Title", it's for the story. And how'd you know the second chapter's title what inspired my (Joke) Alt. Title?
