Sugarcube Corner radio reviews Stairway to Equestria · 2:23pm Jan 1st, 2013

This was kinda unexpected . . . They got some plot details wrong but apparently they liked it.
Also, happy new year everyone !

PS: Is the plot really that vague that you would make the mistake of thinking that Blink and Twilight are Death and Life and that Blink was accused of killing a filly ? (when in fact he was framed of kidnapping her before Discord's attack).

Nope, they just don't understand the details and/or didn't bother reading it thoroughly enough.

It is VERY obvious that the filly is indeed safe and sound.
and is is even more obvious that they are labeled as the Lifebringer and Deathbringer, and that Death and Life manifest themselves and are most assuredly separate from Blink and Twilight.

Grats though

Lol I don't know what to say about this video. It didn't sound so much like a review as a summary, and the only criticism actually stated is just saying the word cliche a bunch. And then she says she loves it.:derpyderp1:

And about the P.S. I think they just misinterpreted it, if I remember right the part where he takes the filly was a tad confusing, but that's just because we are in Blinks POV and being fed the information he was.
Of coarse its explained what happened and they found the filly so after that if someone was confused they probably weren't paying 100% attention.

Personally, I think that was a pretty poor review. It acted out more like a summary, and even then it wasn't very good. She implies that he murdered a filly because Twilight rejected him and all of that was forgotten about after Discord showed up. That is pretty sloppy.

It's not all bad, though, and congratulations on the 10/10.

You're also their first review, by the look of it.

Did seem kinda strange and unprofessional but so was the formatting of my story on her source... fanfiction does not support the *** *** *** stars I have here for the scene breaks so a lot of chapters are large text walls. Found out they have a line for that so I went through the whole thing today and implemented proper breaks.

It would have helped, but I don't think its the entire reason the review was sloppy. God help me if they review my story.

They pulled from the Fanfiction source and not the Fimfiction? Well, there's the problem right there, Fanfiction is a piece of shit website for the most part. Although I read the first time through on Fanfiction and I interpreted it just fine. So hey.

And oh, forgot this, but the obligatory 'When is the next chapter' comment. : )

670444 the expected response: "Soon . . ." :twilightsmile:
