Topics I've Started

Dominus Nox (Critiques welcomed)

03 January 2014 - 02:43 AM

So, I started this project in the summer, but took til now to get it to an actual publishable level.

 

Link to fimfiction: http://www.fimfictio...554/dominus-nox

 

 

Description:

Many years ago, the land of Equestria was ruled by Chaos; Discord, as he was known. The two Princesses representing the Sun and the Moon rose up to defeat Discord with the unbridled power of the Elements of Harmony. So it was brought forth: a new age of peace and prosperity to Equestria that was previously unknown to its inhabitants.

It was not to last.

The history books tell us of Nightmare Moon and her attempt to seize the throne. But what they don't tell us, is who she really was, and about the cascade of events that led to her unprecedented uprising, and eventual downfall. What really happened before she was locked away in the moon? Tracing back old wives' tales and folklore, they tell us that she was sealed away with the Elements of Harmony against her will. What really happened in those ancient times?

Follow the story of a young group of recruits in the Royal Guard as they are thrown into history, lived through it all, fought Nightmare Moon, and reclaimed Equestria.

 

 

Aaand then there's the cover art I did for it:

Hope you enjoy! More chapters are soon to come. Critiques and criticisms are welcome.

Post successes & happy news here!

03 May 2013 - 02:00 PM

I've seen a number of fail threads and embarassing moment ones as well, but here let's focus on the positive for once! Post successes or awesome things that happened today, in the past, major, minor or seemingly insignificant.

 

For one, I have maintained a 4.0 GPA throughout my school career thusfar.

 

I once threw a no-hitter in my state baseball tournament.

 

And... I also know of a member here who is getting married soon...


Today's Sports

29 April 2013 - 02:39 AM

Today i saw the movie "42" and if there was one thing that I took away, it was how deluded today's professional sports have gotten.

Now, I know several or many of you don't play sports and some do. I personally played american football in 6th grade and baseball for all of my life. There was one thing I was taught through those years and it was to have fun. Having fun is why we do what we do in life. Life is all about fun. That is what I also took away from the movie "42". Baseball back in the era of Jackie Robinson and the golden years was played because of the players' love of the game and they had fun.

However, that was lost somewhere through history. Now all i have seen are gym rats, steroids, and people with attitude problems that always think it's the umpire or the ref's fault. Why should they earn millions to feed their ego when there are many others who would gladly play to have a fair game for the pure enjoyment? The most probable answer would be money. Goodytwoshoes in sports don't make money. Bullshit. I am sick of hearing all this garbage on the news about, "This player got drunk and killed 7 people", "This player shot himself in the leg", "This player was banned from the sport for steroid use". It makes me sick. Today's sports have gone down a spiraling path of insanity which will most likely never get back on track so long as human nature rears it's greedy, ugly head into the idiots that pollute the sport and make those who are honest look bad. And to think we pay hundreds of dollars to watch pumped up self-absorbed arseholes whack heads together. What a joke.

Tell me if i'm wrong on my thinking track here.

I encourage all of you to see the movie "42". It was brilliant.
