She’s heckin’ adorable! AND functional! :3

@ABronyAccount
I’d bet they do. They’re relatively cheap, reliable, and as far as I know, American public schools aren’t going to move away from wooden #2 pencils anytime soon – probably a combination of ‘inertia’, standardization, and they’re specified as the ONLY writing tool to use on many test forms, e.g. ScanTrons, which STILL say “Use No. 2 Pencil ONLY” on them – necessitating sharpeners.

@Background Pony #5D5D
Same. I typically use Pentel GraphGear 500s, or the “classic engineer” P200 Series models, 0.3- to 0.9-mm, depending on what I’m doing. But I always prefer soft, dark lead, usually 2B.

He still does not know what test awaits him ahead

Wonder what the text says, looks like a test/textbook.

@Background Pony #0126
Try Waterfox Classic, that still supports flash (just be sure to download and install a pre-killswitch version of flash) and i just tested it, THE GAME STILL WORKS!!! Also the game wasn’t on facebook. It’s on Artix’s own website.

@Dirty Bit
It’s a test of character.

Unsure if upset or bragging. Will need to repeat boop test for conclusive result

@The Really Very Wery LAST UNICORN For Real, Bro!
I wouldn’t test her…

@Spiral 晃晃
It looks like he doesn’t care anymore since no magic means he could actually die in peace. Or it’s a test.

I’ve warmed up to S9 over the years when things like Pony Life and parts of G5 exist.
Don’t get me wrong, Discord’s reason for “testing Twilight” by almost dooming Equestria thanks to releasing the Legion of Doom still makes no Celestiadamn sense, but at least the rest of the season was alright? Right?!
With a few duds, S9 was alright. Maybe not the best showing, but it’s far from the worst. The LOD episode in particular felt genuine as did Common Ground.
2 4 6 Greaaat while it does have it’s problems (I blame Twilight for being a Trickster to Rainbow making her THINK she’s gonna coach the buckball team then say “LOL nope you’re coaching the cheer squad!”) It feels like it was intended to be a Pinkie Pie or Fluttershy episode retooled into a Dash episode because RD didn’t have enough episodes over the season compared to the others. Also why was Silverstream not on the squad? Smolder, Ocellus and Yona are good choices but the episode made me want more. Maybe even one of the boys too breaking the stereotype that cheerleaders gotta be female?
The Student Six just didn’t have enough development compared to the Mane 6, Spike and Glimglam, all of whom had more than two seasons to grow. So I felt an unintentional apathy towards them.

And while She Talks To Angel WAS a Zecora episode I feel like it was also the episode Angel Bunny needed for us to finally see him as not a jackass though there were episodes like that before none of them focused on him.

So in a sense while Season 1 and 2 had some better episodes in some cases (with Hurricane Fluttershy being THE best Rainbow Dash has ever been) I admit S9 was pretty good.

tl;dr Season 9 was good but could have been even better.

Imagine all the science experiments they’ll test on someone with a foot fetish!

Yeah, I hate tests too.

Me looking at the clock waiting for the time the test session ends so I can FINALLY PEE be like:

This image is ALWAYS MEGA EPIC to see! Especially since I finished rebeating Sonic 3 and Knuckles as Rainbow Dash, but this time in Sonic 3 A.I.R instead of the original romhack lol.

If you want to know how to get Rainbow Dash in the Doomsday Zone in the original romhack (since you need to get 10 achievements in A.I.R to unlock Debug Mode which takes a long time), first enable Level Select by going to the swinging vine in Angel Island Act 1, then while on it, press Left x3, Right x3, Up x3. You should hear a ding if you did it right. Press Start and press A to go back to the title. Sound Test will be under the menu (you have to move the options down). From here, you can access any level with any character, 0 standing for Sonic with Rainbow Dash, 1 for Sonic alone, 2 for Rainbow Dash, and 3 for Knuckles. To change the number and character, you press C. On Sound Test, head to Mushroom Hill Act 1 and head to the pulley. Once on it, input the same combination from Angel Island Act 1. You should hear a ding if done right. Head back to the level select and then change to Rainbow Dash (2) if you haven’t already done that. Bring the selection over to Doomsday 1 (Doomsday 2 brings you to the regular final fight after Death Egg Act 2) and hold A and then press start to load the level. Once you load in it, before Rainbow Dash turns super, press B to turn Debug Mode on and then turn back to normal after. This should prevent her sprite from looking corrupted. It may take a few tries though. Once it works, you can play Doomsday as Super Rainbow Dash! One thing to keep in mind is that once you beat Phase 2, the game will sort of softlock as you keep chasing after Eggman. To fix this, go into Debug mode and then exit it and fly towards him and you will go past him beating him as you get the Master Emerald back!

@LordFlareon
(Deputy Mare) FINE! If you’re so adamant in flying, why don’t YOU go onboard with them and do a test flight? I’ll just wait here and observe the results from here!

The Trotring Test. When participants in a text conversation are unaware they are talking to a pony.

Okay, on the note of modding this game via altering it’s image files, I have managed to pull it off.

I found the image containing the joystick viewing icon usable in Training Mode, and altering its colour to be green instead of blue did actually make the colour in game be green.

I haven’t managed to find the background or player image files yet, but I believe that’s because they are encrypted within a group of .gfs files, which can be decrypted back into the original images via a software called Glarysoft.

This certainly isn’t the best place to be discussing game modding, but I’m mostly just testing the waters with this for now, and will update this comment with what I find in those .gfs files.

Edit: Okay, it seems those files aren’t actually openable with Glarysoft for some reason, and I can’t find any software that opens them.

This image did just get merged though, and I do actually have the higher res versions for all other characters, including Texas and Huggles (not sure why that’s there though…)
They’re also available in several different languages, including French, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Korean, and Japanese.
Something weird though, is that all of the main 7 characters have a sheet in English that’s a .dds file of resolution 825x1050, though Texas, Huggles, and the All sheet have .png’s in English that are 1275x1650 in size.
Even weirder is that all other language versions of the sheets for the main 7 characters are in that higher 1275x1650 res for some reason.

I feel like those .dds files will get updated when the next update comes and Stronghoof gets added, as the devs’ll likely notice the discrepancy and fix it.

@marinus18
It is hard to survive in so many sanction, somehow North-Korea dare to exasperate both China and US, sticking to nuclear tests. They rather stay poor than kneel down to their big neighbor, this spirit, I think is worth respect. They do have strong political independence and diplomatic independence, which many small countries not.

Surprise taste test

Wait, so it wasn’t a fucked up ruse but a real test after all?

test

Those were both more or less my thinking.
Don’t worry though, he gives informed consent.

Good memory! That was mostly meant to be when they were out traveling, where she could cause an international incident. XD I like to think she “gets into the wine” rather a lot at home. :)

I like the fact that the testing of the ‘artificial gems’ has to be on an ordinary pony and not on the princesses.

BTW, Sergeant Pauldron must be around as Luna has gotten into the wine, again. XD

Well, this is definately going in a different direction. Worth the wait for sure. Can’t imagine how Twilight is going to handle asking for that: “will you please boink my boyfriend that’s not my boyfriend while I scan you with this magical widget I just created and haven’t ever tested” (which, perhaps, sounds better than “will you boink this guy I pay for sex while I scan you”).

Bigger question in my mind is where the story will go. If Luna and Twilight can fix the gems, will that lead to the Sirens having to chose? And if so, what will Sonata chose - live forever or grow old with Smoothie?

Soft? This means he must be very good for cuddles, time to test!
