Discussion you say?

Spoiler: Cupcake Discussion (click to show/hide)

   Another thing that helped her get away with it is that the once a week thing seems to be fairly recent. While she has been doing this for a while it seems likely that she waited until there was a good reason for the person to leave. The increasing it to once a week and having worse situations would denote a worsening of her insanity.

   A good question would be less of why and more of a how she got that way. She seems to find it a requirement so much so that questioning the necessity doesn't even occur to her. That is not something a person develops on their own. This would mean someone caused it. Even if it was something she came upon on her own it would require quite an extreme set of events to cause it.

Why is it pointless to try and work out her motivations?

She's gone insane. She has a set of logical rules that she thinks are understood by everyone. In this case, ponies have to die for the cupcakes. We don't have any certain ground. Maybe she isn't insane, and enjoys the pain. We don't see any real enjoyment, but maybe she conceals it? Maybe she just likes cutting up other ponies. We don't know. What we can ASSUME is that she thinks that her reasons count more than friendship. She hasn't decided to kill Rainbow because she hates her. We can see this from the ending, where she decides to stuff her so she can always have her around.


So back to what we can work out. Assuming she isn't simply lying, and going from the basis that she is insane, for the reasons I have posted above, we can deduce that she has a numbering system. Whether this is a lottery or an order, or even merely a throwaway line like 'It's your time now', is unknown. A lottery system does seem to be the most likely, however. It fits Pinkie's apparent favour of randomness. It also works best with the lines that indicate that she was happy when she knew Dash's number came up. This indicates that it is more likely a lottery.

So what we have to work out....is what was the cause of this. Finding out the approximate time it happened would be a great aid in this. 

We know it happens after the episode "Call of the Cutie", but curiously, it also must happen after most of the cutie mark crusaders episodes, in which we see Applebloom is still well adjusted, as she is most definitely not when she features in the story itself. Presumedly, the rest of the CMC must have gotten their cutie marks, and Applebloom drifted away.

Presumedly, assuming show counts as canon, it would take place after the GGG, however, it also seems likely that it was happening before it. For this to make sense, I speculate that Pinkie Pie has a split personality. One is Pinkie Pie normal, the other will be referred to through Pinkie Pie's original name, Pinkamena Diane Pie. 

Pinkamena Diane Pie (hereafter referred to as PDP) contains all the parts of her that do not fit in with the party girl image she has.

Sigh, it is so hard to talk shop when you have never even been in the shop

   I am not saying that working out her motivation is worthless just that there are some more pressing matters to attend to. For instances if she was made insane on purpose by someone then chances are that person is still out there. Another point is that I assume that ponies is the secret ingredient and therefor anyone that has eaten her cupcakes since she started this could be considered a cannibal even if it is by accident. If I was to take the story further but not use Pinky then I would take someone else and depict their slow decline into insanity as they try to recapture the taste of Pinky's cupcakes.

   I don't think that it takes place in the main setting and probably happens at some point during season 1. Does someone happen to know at what point the story was started? If that is during the time that season 1 was still going then likely it happens at the point between the two episodes it starts between.

All we know is that it must have been written after episode Twelve.

Can we get back ontopic now?

Anyway,


This win does not need to be explained.

Posting shoops and not posting mine? Sir, I am offended.

Renard - GOT MY PONY SPAM FOR YOU

This song is seriously not known enough, compared to how awesome it is. (Just ignore the not-too-good intro).

Me? Trolling? Meh, too much work.

But what, haven't you heard of Renard/Kitsune² yet? Wierd, he's actually quite "famous" around YTPMVers and 4chan.
Rainbow Dash Tylenol, Avast Fluttershy's Ass, Rock My Pony, Intensive Pony Unit and other variations are all based on his songs.

Oh yeah, here's the full album of the previous song. It's quite good: A PICTURE OF FINN FARTING

[Dsarker]

I've only heard the AFA one.

[Blade Master Model 42]

I've only heard the AFA one.

I also heard RDT. AFA is much better, in my opinion.

[Dsarker]

AFA is my second favourite pony song atm. Favourite would have to be Pinkie Pie by Edge of Everfree.
