  1. Oh. No harm done then.

     

    Dear Princess Celestia

     

    I am on the verge of a psychological breakthrough in the reasoning of Pinkie Pie.

    Specifically, I suspect that she is a person in the caliber of genius, but not as we know it- she seems to exhibit inductive reasoning.

    Inductive reasoning is different from Deductive reasoning because Deductive means it draws conclusions from evidence of theory (such as the classic 'Socrates is man, Man is mortal, therefore Socrates is mortal'). But Inductive means that conclusions are drawn from abstractions of the observed (for example, 'I hang pictures on my wall with nails, therefore pictures are hung on walls with nails'.) It's a not a far cry from probabilistic reasoning, so I think there's not much more to observe before I crack this nut.

     

    Her tail appears to be twitching, so I will be ending my research for today. Cheerio-

    Your Faithful Student,

  2. Boring: Regular tap water (Province of British Columbia Ministry of the Environment treatment and filtering flavor) with ice

     

    Soda pop: Root beer

     

    Wobbly-pop: Sleeman's Amber Ale

    (I hate Molson Pilsner)

     

    How do you like your friend breakfast foods? (And/or what kind?)

  3. Wait, did you make that?

    I should think I am not in the habit of showing off the work of someone else when credit is due.

    Yes, I made the pictures of the work-in-progress Sonic Rainboom "Foxhound" animation. I considered you guys didn't think it was cool since no one even peeped at the fact that I posted them.

  4. X-Men: First Class

    Pretty cool. I was wondering how they were going to take down a guy that could absorb large amounts of energy. However once it was in his body, it still has to go someplace, technically if its converted into matter then Shaw would have gotten heavier or bigger, and if it was kept as energy, he would become so hot he would become irradiated, or so electrified that he might generate ambient static with the submarine and shock people nearby.

  5. You posed that question with a high likelyhood that they're both good. Therefore

    Whichever one's cheaper.

     

    If you were transmogrified into a 16-bit video game, what would be the sort of video game universe in which you would want to exist in?

  6. As advanced as games have become and seek to become, there is some irrevocable charm to the days of 8-bit and 16-bit. In my mind some of their greatest attributes come from their look and their sound, but obviously gameplay would have an impact on why they've been so long lasting in lieu of their likability.

    I've just been spending the past while listening to Chip tunes and other 8-bit music, and its lack of complexity still has a lot to read into. It's just so much fun. I'm sure there are memories or other things you recall about the years of yore, anywhere from pac-man to Super Mario World..

  7. I have come to the conclusion that I am being too stingy with Rep because I shouldn't want to be stingy with something that is freely given. Therefore, freely it shall be received. Everyone on this page and previous get 2 rep. Or so.

  8. By the creation of several Pony/Brony related threads in the past few weeks, it's been a matter of concern for me, the well-being of the forum community with the division caused by Bronies and Anti-Bronies (with the Cupcakes being the straw that broke the proverbial camel's back). Therefore I took it upon myself to have a little bit of a chat with BTGBullseye and Username (known most recently as Rainbow Dash).

     

    It was conceded that while the My Little Pony thread will go unrestricted by the posting of Ponies, it is suggested that Bronies in the future be more corteous and responsible with Pony picture selection if they are going to be posting them in other threads. Smaller pictures are appreciated. As well, that they would be topical. It is perfectly fine that people would post meme pictures such as "Look at all the cares I give" or "Not sure if serious" and the like, but it would be suggested that there not be more than two or three in a given thread page.

     

    In response, Anti-Bronies are asked to stop with the wangst, frustration and slander against pony pictures.

    Below is a partial transcript of the chat from which this came from. Fuzzle is Username, I am Mr. Tyler.

     

    Mr. Tyler: So we are in agreement to tone down the picture posting

    [AF] Fuzzle: By tone down, you mean "scale down", right?

    [AF] Fuzzle: If not, I'm keeping them at their current size...

    Mr. Tyler: I will talk to other pony posters, I would suggest you do also, Username. In response to keeping pony pictures smaller than you have been keeping them, what might by hyperbolated as persecution will be reduced

    Mr. Tyler: Would that be agreeable, Bullseye

    BTGbullseye [AF]: Size and number reduced? Yes... No moe 16 pictures in a row from different users...

    Mr. Tyler: What is meant by Row?

    Mr. Tyler: In a single thread? In a single day?

    Mr. Tyler: In a single thread page?

    BTGbullseye [AF]: One post having one, then another immediately after, then another right after... Etc....

    [AF] Fuzzle: That's far higher than my posting rate, blue.

    BTGbullseye [AF]: In a single thread

     

    Mr. Tyler: thread page

    Mr. Tyler: limit of

    Mr. Tyler: two? three?

    BTGbullseye [AF]: 2 at most really... 3 if it's extremely on topic...

    Mr. Tyler: Alright then

    Mr. Tyler: Username? what do you think

    [AF] Fuzzle: You do realize that this means I don't have to change anything, right?

    Mr. Tyler: You want either a number limit OR a size limit, that is to say.

    BTGbullseye [AF]: The problem is you do it in every thread, and every single page.

    [AF] Fuzzle: All my ponies are on topic, and I don't always post ponies

    Mr. Tyler: Bullseye lets not reverse the progress weve been making

    [AF] Fuzzle: I post about 6 ponies at most, per thread, per day...

    Mr. Tyler: Username, you say you do not want both of those limits, you only want one

    [AF] Fuzzle: Depending on activity

    BTGbullseye [AF]: Not always, but more often than everyone else put together...

    Mr. Tyler: Gentlemen lets remain on topic

    BTGbullseye [AF]: I'll brb, I have to go pick up my Mom.

    Mr. Tyler: right then

    [AF] Fuzzle: See you later

    BTGbullseye [AF]: Shouldn't be more than 20 min.

    [AF] Fuzzle: One thing I think you failed to add was

    [AF] Fuzzle: No limits to posting ponies in the MLP threads... -.-

    Mr. Tyler: So Username, you would be okay with a size limitation, OR a picture posting limitation of ponies (both of which would only be able to be enforced by word of mouth or by honor) but not both

    Mr. Tyler: Well that goes without saying, Why would there be a limit on posting trains in a train thread?

    [AF] Fuzzle: XD

    [AF] Fuzzle: I'd definitely not do a size limitation, .GIF images would take hours to post...

    Mr. Tyler: Well then, be more attentive to the dimensions of the pictures you would like to post

     

     

    If anyone objects to these suggestions, please take it up with me so I can have it sorted out.
