I always just watch it on the telly. I get it as it airs and at the highest possible quality.

If I had the equipment, I'd probably set up a Bay 12-only livestream, but I don't. :(

Anyway, apparently my fic's been sent to the pre-readers already. I wasn't expecting it to happen overnight, but it did.

And fina

I don't have the hub so I can't watch it on TV :|

The only benefit of livestreams to me is getting it early. The commercials are annoying and I've no interest in the... banter that goes on in the livestream's chatroom.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Have there ever been any ponies on earth stories?
Probably, I'd wager em to be slice of life self inserts.

A grimdark one will come up sooner or later...

Pretty much all the ponies on Earth fics are of the "humans are horrible bastards, ponies are beacons of light, innocence, and purity" variety. Not that there isn't some truth in that, but not enough to justify every single one of them being that way. The one well-written exception to that I can recall is the one (can't recall the title) which has Equestria in the Americas, and revolves around filly Twilight and Napoleon's son becoming good friends and presumable changing European history.

Now that you said that I'm going to have to make a fanfic where ponies are actually sapiophobic and start a massive campaign to kill humanity after they accidentally discover the Earth.

First part, couldn't figure out a title. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Any flames or other unfriendly behavior will get your name eternally defiled in-story.

I hardly have any idea how I'm going to write it myself. I'm thinking that I'm just going to let the story tell itself as it flows out and hope it comes out well. I may use terminology or other stuff that isn't understandable from a not-me perspective, so if I include something confusing, let me know.

How did they get to Earth?

Will there be recursion if they see a TV?

They have a portal between their planet and Earth.

There won't be a recursion from them seeing themselves, but it will psyche them out. It's one of the few things I have planned, and it may hold a fairly large amount of significance in the story. Or it may not. Time shall tell.

Edit: Got some more done. Hopefully this won't turn into one of my "too long, didn't finish" projects that dot my history.
