In the original plan, the entire mission was different. The train battle would have been in this arc instead of returning to Nightmare Heights. Granted, the plan was for her to escape so Barometz existing and the slower buildup to Tipsy Tulip might have helped her. Maybe. The physical threat...

While part of me feels like I botched things with Misty's story, this breakfast was the actual start of "something's wrong with the world". I had a started quietly seeding the magical weirdness really early on. And as Fnu (?) already noticed earlier, the early Tipsy Tulip hints were here but...

Scarlet comes in during the fifth or sixth arc. We are currently near the end of the third arc.

Figured as much. The party sorta needs to be together for this information reveal.

I believe we're in a situation where the players are waiting on me while I'm waiting on the players. Being fully transparent, while Sue'zhan has a massive number of plot significant things going on, I was mainly waiting on Patch since most of the most immediate interaction should be between the...

Intriguingly, I wasn't talking about that. What I had in mind was was the mystery arc in Manehattan with Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, and the CMC. An earlier writer did minor foreshadowing when they got wind of the character overlap the other writer/artist team was using.

It was weird that they didn't have have good editing...except when they oddly did. I distinctly remember that there were some arcs where when a writer heard about a future arc and specifically setup some name drops and cameos to set it up. But all the trailers are stuck on the docks. :P

Pretty sure that's two chapters ahead. Currently it's right before Nightmare Heights but after that I believe is the cucarocka attack and the Mauvenine Four. If so, that sounds about the right spot since Amber and Snowy aren't accounted for in the previous two mentioned scenes. Wow, I...

While I was among those who fell off on reading them, I feel the IDW comics seemed to have very specific moments when it was good or bad. There were a couple of really specific styles and tones between the different writer/artist teams to the point that the way you enjoy pony might be served up...

Yes. The gun he is (well, was) holding is Palin's. Coming from the Math Off, he's not as heavily geared since his ray gun was a larger underslung thing. Separately: *GM note that Night Cap spoke out loud*

I think a lot was expectation. I think if I had it in mind, I could have altered my own thought processes. At least structured things different. And I know it's in the past, just trying to keep things in mind for any future GMing.

All things considered, I was wondering if I was causing a bit of mood whiplash with my Micropiece stories since the majority are comedy. There was also the fact that I was going broad with things ranging from Ginny to greased narwalrus wrestling as opposed to focusing on one thing.

There was simply a raw difference in thought between players and GM that affected things across several arcs. It might have went smoother if I wised up to that.

While usually don't overtly speak through my characters, I think that was the moment my brain noticed but hadn't properly processed the red flags going on.

I don't know if it was intentional but when that book editor in Micropiece complained about open ended endings, I mentally noted that the Micropiece stories tended to be open ended. Well, exact tone of the situation can affect things. Individual moments can easily be full of slapstick. The...

"Ah yeah, we got the goods," Roock said, rubbing his hands together as he sat on the couch. "Yeah dude. The seller seemed so trustworthy. Got a ton of these discs so some are bound to be good," Beanuu said as they waited for Friday to focus the image for the projection. They soon saw a room...

It wasn't just Light Fantastic. Generally the attempt was to have the other players come to Night Cap so that his dreamwalking was more a shared thing. That often didn't happen.

Ah, the drinking game of well intentioned GM mistakes. First up, the number of times anyone other than Night Cap is given a dream plotline.

If you want to, once we reach that point I can type up a summary of the Warning Sound arc. It won't be the same as a direct copy of the posts and it'll be colored by my memory but it would be better than nothing. That is, unless everyone would rather leave off on Dazzling reformation.

The guard replied to Kage, "Glad I live up here. Sounds like the ground is super dangerous." Several guards picked up the unconscious and tied up Master SAVAGE and carried him back to the hallway where Sue'zhan was struggling to stay awake. As they were walking, everyone heard a gunshot ring...
