I could also see Gilda as a stand in for Bender in that episode.

It would be nice to have an episode with a flashback showing how they all grew up together.

Alright, that comic was just too cute. I would love to see a flashback episode about Twilight and her growing up right up until she moved to Ponyville.

I would just like to take this moment to say that King Somber is an awesome villain name.

That's a pretty good name. I'm more interested in them getting into the history behind Celestia and Luna, and them going to Manehattan. Link for the Info and an eventual video from Comic Con

Also the toys that came up a bit ago are on sale at Hot Topic but I think they are sold out right now. They went really quick.

Hey are you guys familiar with flutteranddash because I swear it is one of the funniest active fanworks
It's hard for me to pin a rating on. It does have occasional language/suggestivenes, but I wouldn't call it persistent. So basically if you're okay with that I'd recommend it. (It's not like it can be very graphic, I mean look at the art style)
Image
But yes here's a link

Sorry if I sound like I'm ignoring people but I'm trying to learn as little as possible about Season 3 before it airs, so I'm not watching any preview videos or anything.

I'm embarrassed. I meant to put that in the black bar thing, not bold it. Talk about a derp moment.

Anyway, I'm just glad that pic of King Somber's head turned out to be real. I don't care what anyone says, I freaking love that design.

Here is a visual aid for you. He already has a wiki page.

http://mlp.wikia.com/wiki/King_Somber

His design makes me wonder if he is some how related to Luna's bat-winged ponies.

I found this and its kind of funny to me for some reason.

High Quality Comic cover and pages. I love some of the cameos in the forth page. Also apparently some one is doing a MLP clothing line.

So, that story I was going to write, the super-awesome and funny story so good there'd be no way EquestriaDaily would reject it... well, EquestriaDaily rejected it...

So, no room for this writer, huh? Fine! I'll go build my own daily pony news site

I'll just go to fimfiction.

Bleh.

Edit: TLDR; I suck.

No way.

I read it and for what it was, it was awesome. I can't understand how they could have said no to it. I personally don't find any flaw in most of your writing, and what little things I find are more of personal preferences of mine than anything.

I would stop trying to submit to them too if I was you. They are missing out on an awesome writer.

Thanks. I guess the thing I'll miss the most is the advertisement having my fics there gave.

EQD often then not doesn't reject based on quality of a fic but more on originality, and they probably get hundreds of fics send to them and they read trough parts of every fic but not completely.
I'd also like to point out it's rather silly of yourself to assume something you made is so great that there is no way someone would reject it.

I don't think the portion about it being "so great that EQD could never reject it" was serious. It was mostly a facetious form of unrealistic optimism.

IDW often puts out multiple cover designs for their comic, it looks like the MLP comics are going to have more than any other. Here is one that has been put on Equestria Daily.

Poor Derpy! Keeping up with the demand is so hard!

I am still holding out on a cross over with "30 Days Of Night".

And this is just too cute.

IDW was already an up-and-coming publisher. But, this is going to put them on the map!

This. You have to remember, your not the only fanwritier in the pool there, there's a lot of writers who are every week submitting a lot of stories. EQDaily is still more lighthanded then some fanfic sites.

It looks like it might just surpass "The Walking Dead" as the top selling indy published book.

Okay, I'm totally going to stay away from EqD from now on... right after the special writing contest they just started for Halloween. I'mma write myself a nice, suspenseful story. Already have the plot and everything.

"In the cooling fall months, a changeling stalks the population of Ponyville, feeding not on their love, but their fear. As the body count rises, can Twilight trust any of her friends... or even herself?"

What do y'all think?

I like it. It has potential! You also seem to be making the Changelings into a far more dangerous species.

How about if the get the most nourishment from the most terrifying moment of a pony's life: Their death!

Likely Air date for Season 3! Looks like we only have to wait till November 10th guys. Also there are some mild spoiler pictures in the link they give but they look really cool.

Edit: As Brent said below it is now Confirmed by Hub!
