Ghost Mike's Ponyfic Review Monday Musings #47

As some of you know, ever since Friendship Is Magic ended, I’ve been gradually rewatching the show. From Season 4 onwards, I’ve more or less kept pace just ahead of Loganberry’s My Little Repeats watch-along. And let me tell you, rewatching Seasons 4-6* at this slow of a pace has proven quite the contrast to how I initially binged the show’s then-seven seasons in 53 days following the release of the movie.

Not particularly jarring actually. I noticed you shelving it for the purposes of reading later, and judging by some of your activity around the site that I stumble across every-so-often, I wanted to see where it landed for you instead of simply thanking you for putting it in a shelf in the first place. You seem to put a bit of thought into what you read. I'm mostly glad folks like you and others with a more critical eye have enjoyed it for what it is rather than try to elevate it to what it isn't.

As I said in the post-release blog, I knew that it would get attention via the title alone, so I wanted to make sure it was worth the time spent reading it. Again, I am the first to admit the title is click-bait. I did come up with title along with it being a gender-bending Button Mash for the situation, but I spent enough time to make sure folks didn't come in and get garbage unfairly. I want folks to read other things I've got, after all.

Anyway, that's a long way of saying, I'm glad it elicited a hoot!

No Problem!

It must seem weird for me to do that just a week after already reading and categorising the fic. But as you may have noticed, I added a new tier between Good and Really Good, and I’ve been moving fics in either of those folders to the in-between folder where that middle ground suits them best. Which yours does. It’s a hoot!

So, that’s why.

Thanks for adding Achievement Unlocked: Alicorn Princess you your "Pretty Good" shelf. After reading the shelf's description, I agree with the decision as after you've read it once, you don't really have a reason to go back to it. You know the joke midway through, so no reason to reread it unless you enjoyed the delivery.
