PaulloDEC has been trying to put together a proper timeline for everything that's happened, so it'd be interesting to see what he thinks of this.
The Doctor wrote:-Very little time has passed in Equestria. Problem with this mostly comes from then having to figure that Twilight's journey to becoming a Princess was only a few months long.

It's not that bad, actually. For instance, we know that both the first episode and the Season 4 opener happened at the Summer Sun Celebration, and since Twilight wasn't an Alicorn during May the Best Pet Win, that gives a basic timeline:
Year 1, Summer: Friendship is Magic 1&2
Year 1, Winter: Winter Wrap Up, Hearth's Warming Eve
Year 2, Spring: May the Best Pet Win, The Crystal Empire (Assumed; there's snow in the empire in this episode, but later episodes have it bright and green)
Year 2, Summer: Magical Mystery Cure, Princess Twilight Sparkle
Year 2, Winter: Tanks for the Memories
So Twilight's journey of learning the magic of friendship and becoming a princess appears to have taken slightly less than a year. A busy year, to be sure, but it doesn't seem completely beyond the question to me. Plus I think it makes the CMC's situation more sensible, since if multiple years had passed they should be well on their way to being blank flank adults
Fizzbuzz wrote:Yeah, for everything this episode did right, I'm surprised that it didn't re-address Rainbow Dash's destruction of the weather factory. While I certainly don't think she's going to get sent to the moon for it or anything, hopefully she'll at least be off helping to repair it later in the season.
