Otherwise, given enough time you will eventually die from something other then old age. A predator, disease or even an accident. If you can die, mathematically at someone point you will eventually die. Even if you live for a billion years.
Actually, did you know lobster don't die from old age? The older they yet the more bigger and stronger they become. They even found some 400 years old. But despite being immortal, they don't have long life expectancy. Even sponges have been known to live longer then 15,000 years. Some things on earth don't die from old age just still have to reproduce.
Who? Why do these things happen to ponies?

Also it just started a couple minutes ago

Realistically, it was never going to win due to how it got nominated.
But it finished above No Award, which given the issues that happened with the Puppies is a win in my book

Of course it doesn't help we don't know who all is working on the show and who is working exclusively on the movie besides like Theissen or McCarthy and Ingram. If a season 7 isn't soon announced after season 6 ends I don't think they'd try to squeeze one out before the movie.

Actually, it came in dead last. Both it and Supernatural came in below "No Award".

They rank the choices, not just pick a winner. Which weighs the votes as they go down and distribute the placings.

A bunch of the show's VAs did a reading of that issue at bronycon this year. It was a pretty good panel.rudecyrus wrote:Been catching up on all the comics I've neglected reading, and my favorite by far has to be the Rarity/Pinkie Pie one where they recreate the Emperor's New Clothes using different media and art styles. For sheer creativity alone it's a winner.

Anyway, in other news, it seems like the rating for the show went up. The last three episodes were over 200,000 views and the last two episodes were over 250,000 views. Things are looking bright. Yay.

Fizzbuzz wrote:I'm happy with the amount of Starlight that we've gotten thus far. The thing with introducing a new supporting character like this is that you can't go too hard on featuring them right away, lest it seem like you're trying to force the character upon the viewers. Like with Cadance and Shining Armor, after they were introduced at the end of S2 and seen again at the beginning of S3, we got little more of them until Games Ponies Play, then not again until Three's A Crowd; eventually we started getting more familiar with them, and we saw them more, but they're not going to be seen too terribly often seeing as they're not the main characters of this show. Starlight Glimmer's circumstances are obviously different, given that she's living with Twilight and all, and to that end we have gotten a bit more of her, but not to the point where I think she's trying to be pushed as an eleventh main character.
