Story gets two downvotes
Goes from ranked 930ish to 1140ish
No longer in the 1000 rankings.
So like, that's still really, really impressive. I can't believe well ranked this story is, and I have absolutely no right to complain in the slightest.
And yet...
It's like being real hungry and getting a bite of cake, and then not having anymore cake right after that bite.
I don't know.
I didn't go too far with this right I mean there's the Why Scootaloo chapter and this is kinda on par with it although this is discussing actually doing something to somepony so that's kinda horrible if you think about it but I mean it's comically terrible and should I add the dark tag? maybe I should add the dark tag, this is kinda-
Edit: Nevermind, I didn't realize this was the norm.
A significant amount of you has taken the time to point out that Scootaloo's plan to murder Celestia is extremely flimsy. To the criticism I would like to give the following response on how this plan would actually succeed:
I 'unno.
HAHAHA YEAH! THIS STORY IS JUST GETTIN' PRAISED FOR IT'S ORIGINALITY LEFT AND RIGHT! YEP, NO ONE HAS DONE ANYTHING SIMILAR WHATSOEVER AT ALL! NOT IN THE SLIGHTEST. NOPE.
NOTHING AT ALL LIKE IT IN ANY WAY, VERY, VERY UNIQUE AND ORIGINAL.
Wakes up half through sleep.

Some people would like the chapters of Home is for the Weak to be rearranged in chronological order.
Some people want them where they are.
Some people want it marked incomplete.
I want it marked complete because that story could stop updating at anytime, since its updates rely on me getting ideas for it rather than any sense of progression.
What do you want?
So if I were to make a sequel, who would you want to see Celestia/Nopony interact with the most?
I'd like to write more in Home is for the Weak, but the very nature of it makes that an issue. There is no plot. Home is for the Weak practically has no sense of progression for the most part. The whole entire story relies on Celestia and Scootaloo having interesting to read conversations. This is where it shines the best. In order for this story to be good, I must make those two constantly interesting.
It is because it's not really about anything specifically besides two horses in a cardboard box?
Do you like seeing Celestia in a more casual manner?
It is because it's two characters having unusual conversations with no general purpose?
Well if any of those reasons is the reason you like Home is for the Weak, take a look at this one.
I enjoyed this fic, and I have a feeling a lot of you would too.
I got a review!
And now to shamelessly flaunt it like a 5 year old child given an A for the first time in his life.
"Hey kid, wanna hear the time my father was killed and I was raised to avenge him and kill King Sombra?
"No."
"WELL, I was just a young filly at the time, my teeth ached from clenching..."
"Hey Pierce, I'm too tired to think straight, can you make sure this makes sense?"
"My phone buzzed, is this important?"
"No, so I made a new chapter of-"
"B-THERE'S A SNAKE IN MAAAAH BOO~n, I'm trying to sleep."
"That's cool, so I made a new chapter of Home is for Weak, can you check it out?"
Quietly points towards the incomplete tag.
After contacting the mod Eldorado, who was very nice and just got straight to my issue, I learned that all the chapters in this story are duds, because I've written and published them so my editor could poke at them. Meaning whenever I post a new one, nothing pops up. So, delete em, and release a fresh one with the exact same stuff on it. Tada~ updates work now.
On one hand I could say it's annoying, I like to think it's endearing.
So Home is for the weak has been updating daily, but three days ago all activity seemed to go dead for it. For the second time now I got a comment saying "Oh, this didn't update in my bookmarks, had to dig for it."
Anyone else having this issue? I've never had a story do this, but I've seen it happen. What do I do to fix it?
Oh boy! I headed out at 5 PM and I was like "I'm gonna be out till 2 AM, I know it'll be tough, but I'm a tough guy." But it turns out I was out till 6 AM! PRETTY CRAZY HUH?!? I MAY HAVE WOKE UP AT 8 AM, MEANING I'VE BEEN UP FOR 22 HOURS, BUT WHO CARES RIGHT?!? SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK! BEING ABLE TO THINK IS FOR THE WEAK! HOME IS FOR THE WEAK UPDATES AT 7 AM SHARP EVERYDAY! AND I AM GOING TO UPDATE AT 7 AM SHARP! I DON'T CARE! I DON'T CARE HOW
