Final few days of 2012, time to go out the same way I came inoing the news...you silly fillies.
First Off, it's unknown if this is the true 11th Episode, but it's assumed. We'll see.
Here's the synopsis of Episodes 10 and 11.
And more stuff surrounding "Magic Duel
And lastly, the Alternate Ending to "Wonderbolt Academy"

Anypony else here wanna share any stories with what they got, any crazy stuff that happened?
Actually, yes. Turns out my 2nd Cousin is a brony, apparently another freshmen in my band is a brony, and I have gotten a messload of pony swag as presents. Besides that, I actually played BL:OPS 2 for the first time in ever, and I thought I'd never see the day... I HATE IT MORE THAN RARITY. KNIFING SUCKS.

That's awesome. More Pony Swag is always fine.
And it's Call of Duty, sucks to play unless you devote loads of hours into it and you enjoy being able to kill as well as die in less than a second. It's why I enjoy TF2 so much, because even when I suck I can have a fun time giggling at everyone dying in funny ways or just the silly shenanigans in general.

So apparently daylight savings is in effect, or not in effect, or idk. The episode was a hour early this time or something...just me. It's nearing 6am here in Hawaii as I'm doing this review and I swear to god, I love having a 4:50am Alarm. Confirmed:It was leaked to iTunes 5 Hours Early. Most streams played it a hour early. Since I caught it early, this is my review...And my death warrant, SIGNED. I am not giving this episode mercy. This was a obvious filler episode, but come on...
Season 3, Episode 9-Spike At Your Service Review
I'll be honest, a lot of things are cannon, and a lot of nods towards the fandom was made today. Cute. And I don't normally say cute. SO SAVOR THE MOMENT.
Some things that bothered me was the fact it's just a flipping Dragon's Code, and Spike treats it like it's a death warrant...signed. All this nonsense could have also been cleared if Twilight got her flipping mind out of the gutter for just two seconds. Gosh. Talk about rude, as well. And my god Applejack, just take the free help. Do you honestly you, Bic Mac, and Applebloom can do all these tasks?...Okay granted, you can, but wouldn't you want a break? No, your family is a mess of f'ucking workaholics. (*cough* Last Episode.)
...I'm sorry, this just has way too many plotholes and alternate pathways and solutions to end this episode in a better way...
I also want to point out, no Derpy.
Skipping a messload of crazy madness, the setup gone wrong has just one of the most beautiful 3D CGI animations I've ever seen...ESPECIALLY, IT'S THE FREAKING TIMBERWOLVES. Also Super-Ultra-Mega-Timberwolf is cannon..
Weaknessebbles.
This time, I'm going out on a limb, but this is MY Death Warrant, signed.
Overall:55/60: B+/A
though, I take it back. After rewatching, I kinda understand it. I question way too much.
Following Things Are Cannon/Nods
Rarity is writing a novel. (*Fanfics* Cough.)
Spike. Worst. Baker. EVER.
Dragon's Code...more towards Dragon Norse Mythology in this show.
Timberwolves can transform...and choke on rocks.
Shippings...SHIPPINGS EVERYWHERE.
I actually found the episode really delightful to watch, much better than Apple Family Reunion anyway.
Good AJ characterization, interesting interactions between AJ and the rest of the Mane 6, more Spike canon and cel shading.
Woke up late, and shenanigans ensued to stop me from watching until now.
OhComeOn!.avi
Season 3 Episode 9: Spike At Your Service
Spoiler
I couldn't help but be bothered at just how clumsy Spike became while he was helping Applejack. It's probably for the best though, because then Applejack wouldn't have needed a reason to get Spike to stop being in debt with her. It was still very cute though seeing Spike's dedication, and is hilariously competent when he wasn't helping at the farm, like the rock tower.
Also, Timberwolves being weak to rocks are now canon. At least they can't really die, so clearly no animals were harmed in this episode. 8.5/10
Honestly, I was thinking too hard. WAY TOO HARD. Also it's 5am, I'm obviously gonna be a f'ucking grouch...Then again, after watching the episode twice around again, I kinda came to terms with certain things and just live with it. I understand the fact Dragons become a hostile nut once grown up, so I guess it makes more sense in some case...still, Twilight, get your head out of the gutter.
Writing:19/20
Animation:20/20 (25/20)
Moral:18/20
Overall:57/60 (A)
Still, I swear they can do better.
No sketch AGAIN this week due to my family visiting from the states this past week, and I had to cram something before I head back to school.
><
...So has anyone read any good fanfics as of late?
Also. Twilight is the Meta Knight of SSP. (SO OP *COUGH*) [video=youtube;K3UgNv2Avag]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=K3UgNv2Avag[/video]

More like listened. Reading Rainboom gave me some interesting ones, One involving Luna was "To Exist". The other one amused me as well, "Fluttershy Learns the Royal Canterlot Speaking Voice".
Well of course it isn't that! Too early...then again, we're watching episodes from almost half a hear old...So yea. Your call. I'm for one thinking it's the Season 2 Set.

But it's been a really good season so far! I just have been out of town for a bit!
And I see you returned with that creature on you. Ahhhh! *runs*
