So, what won?
>>43047936It's us. Look at the column full of anons, we won in the end. Good job, us!
>>43047936/mlp/ losted
>>43047936I will be honest with you - the only way OP could get a real voting is either by Google polls or by /mlpmg/ proof of work.Anonymous samefagging posts are the worst way to vote for anything.
>>43048042I'd rather concede Darkdoomer won thanks to the schizo's streisand effect than using a Google product for that.
I doubt someone will bother with this in the future, but if so, just avoid namefags or voting for e-celebs. Have votes for the image, music, or fic itself.
>>43048089I mean, many categories don't work anymore, mainly because there's no show to talk about.Gen 5 was a trash fire, if you give protagonism to the Mare Fair dudes, the entire Discord floods the thread, and you may as well call Darkdoomer Patachu because I can't believe a furfag veteran can still cause so much butthurt, even after all these years.Hell, I don't even see the Top 10 monthly Pony Videos. I feel the fandom has been in decline after the G4 finale and G5's mismanagement.We can try when G6 is on the air, but I highly doubt Hasbro gets a second shot.
I am a complete and utter moron. I thought I had posted the results for all of these. Whelp time to get posting then. This is the first year of me doing this and I did learn a lot, and did vett some clear ballot stuffing by some retards. Next year there will be the removal of Best Takedown of the Year and making it a nice round ten categories for anons to vote for.Anywho here is the first category: Best Thread of the YearSo I had to recount several times but we actually have a tie for Best Thread of the Year. Congrats to both Paddlepop Anon and Born to Silly.
>>43048235The second category is the new Coolest Writefag or Drawfag of the Year, which replaced Coolest Staffmember of the Year.OVERWHELMINGLY it is the lovely ja0822ck that has won the new category of Coolest Writefag or Drawfag of the Year
>>43048237The third category is Best Butthurt of the YearIt was a close one between the AIjeets and the Mare Fair Schizo, but congrats to the Mare Fair Schizo for Best Butthurt of the Year. Stay mad that Mare Fair chads keep winning.
>>43048240The fourth category is Best Shitstorm of the YearWhat else could it be except that fucking hack. It is history for not just the board, but the site as a whole. Obligatory #RapeRapeApe for killing /f/ as a result too.
>>43048245The fifth category is Single Best Image of the Year.With an honourable mention to Scoots and Anon, but the collaborative effort of the board to create some credits to celebrate THREE STARS won out. It was amazing to see something so amazing come together in such a short time across the board as a whole.
>>43048237>Not DarkDoomerRIGGED ALARM!!
>>43048248The sixth category is Best Fanmade Video of the Year.Don't forget to brush your teeth anon, or else you'll have to go to the Dentist. Batsys' Dentist wins Best Fanmade Video of the Year. With an honourable mention to the PTS IRL Maresical.
>>43048253The seventh category is Best Namefag of the Year.Honestly (You) should have won this category, because (You) is what makes this board so magically stupid. But Best Namefag of the Year goes to some faggot called Kiwi. With honourable mentions to (You) of course as well as Purp.
>>43048255The eight category is Worst Fan in the Fandom of the Year.So with an amount that was almost more than the rest of the nominees combined, the Worst Fan in the Fandom of the Year goes to Lightsolver.
>>43048257The ninth category is Best Takedown of the YearDogpatch Press being DDOS'ed is your Best Takedown of the Year winner. Fuck that libelous furfaggot may he yiff in hell.
>>43048258The tenth category is What will be missed most from 2025?None of us thought it would end, it was a mainstay on the catalog. But What will be missed most from 2025 is Princess Applejack. Honourable Mention to Beefilly
>>43048259Finally the eleventh category is Biggest Hope for the Next Year and Best Reason To Keep GoingThe Biggest Hope for the Next Year and Best Reason To Keep Going is G6 is at least watchable**Or even releases anything this year
>>43048260So with that, allow me to present to you VERY LATE your 2025 /mlp/ End of Year Award winners. This year has already had some great threads and shitposts, let's hope the rest of 2026 brings us more during the year. Here's to /mlp/ and here's to shitposting with your legendary faggots forever more.
>This year has already had some great threads and shitposts
>>43048264The Berry Punch balloon thread was great imho.
>>43048266It was so great that you forgot it wasn't Berry Punch
>>43048270Cherry Berry I mean. Sorry I am looking at Berry Punch on Twibooru right now for references.
>>43048252>flaggot OP ended up not being retarded and saw through the golems samefagging for their kike artfagHuh, maybe I was too harsh on him after all
>>43048274Why are you looking up a poner that's not your waifu anon?
>>43048276Nah I'm still a retard I appreciate the sentiment though>>43048278It's for convention room party stuff for later this year.
Tamers didn't win? I'm calling rigged
>>43048240>Mare Fair Chads keep winningMore like keep losing venues lmao
>>43048260We could wait for the live action mlp remake
>>43048444Congratulations on winning! You must be so proud.
>>43048259Good ol' /pa/ how I'm gonna miss it. The 12th anniversary thread from a month ago was pretty good too, one of the best threads of 2026 so far,
>>43048252Both are different but should be a tie.Darkdoomer is schizo with technique both trad and digital, Jack is a schizo in imagination and soulful. It's like comparing Gauguin and Picasso.>>43048444What a shame, we been to the Rosen Center last year, ending up in the Hilton Lakeside, we're gonna have to deal with some average Dom Perignon.
>>43048444Congrats on your win bro!
>>43048261I'm okay with this
I didn't win shit
>>43049879Just gotta start more drama anon.
>>43049918But I don't know how, I'm a well adjusted nor/mlp/erson
>>43048444What are you going to do with the prize money?
The real winners are the friends we made along the way
>>43050811We didn't make any. It was funny watching Huffy have a mental breakdown though. >he actually brought an ad
>>43050811>/mlp/>Making friends
>>43048259Proud of you, /pa/, for finishing on your terms and reminding everyone why it’s a shame you’re gone. Best princess, best thread, enjoy retirement
>>43051517Been catching up and it's so much fun
>>43048259>>43051697>Started in season 4 and outlived Gen 5 and the IDW comics >Its one long story and ended with a proper ending and epilogue for all its fuckton of characters SheerFuckingLegendary
>>43051770Also>Its story was made with the ideas of multiple anons contributing>Came back strong as ever with an anniversary thread for more funGlorious
>>43048261>image not found for Lightsolverkek
>>43050886wait huffy actually brought ads?jej
>>43051958Anniversary was fun, flew by way too fast though.
>>43052576For sure, crazy how a week is fast nowadays, I also think it was the fastest thread on the board.
>>43052568Yes to seethe and pretend Darkdoomer and his friends were rigging the votes. And all things about a cabbal with MareFair and ZizzydizzyMC.
Born to Silly didn't outright win? That's fucking bullshit
>>43053305It's more of a Discord project than a true /mlp/ one
>>43052568He claimed it was rigged before the vote started so guess what, I ended up voting for that guy.
>>43053309Good because trannies kept trolling it
>>43048252I'm verifying, minus the schizohttps://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/42927089>Darkdoomer/Patchu wins the #2 vote
>>43053796Then it is very disheartening that the snowpity rewatch cabal has so much sway in these things. ja0822ck is such an artist that very much feeds into their interests. And just like how they made all the backgroundkek ponies reach the semifinals and the finale for Miss /mlp/, they made sure to make the 'what if mare was object so creative' artist win. DarkDoomer drew so much last year that he deserved to win, but they just cannot help themselves. Even with all the streisanding, he had no chance against the one-track mind of snowpityfags and their rigging. No hate against ja0822ck, but he draw maybe 5 pieces of note this year. He is a 2022-2023 artist, so why did he win now in 2025 even though he did nothing? He was at Mare Fair, is it because of this? DarkDoomer was there as well!! Fucking snowpityfags, why?
>>43053309yeah paddlepop anon is a offboard discord project
>>43048259So why did it finally end? Posters got tired of it? No art or stories? Dead bump on 10 general and the one schizo keeping it alive died off?It’s been alive so long and I don’t know thing one about it besides it had some funny OP images and never used a pastebin for their thread links like absolute psychos
>>43054028Story ended. That’s it. They finally reached the end of the story that started in thread 1, gave everyone an epilogue to see where they ended up, did an after party where they added even more epilogue, and finally said they were done. It was still active and getting art and stories until the very last post, and got art and stories for the anniversary including >>43051697. /pa/ just had said all it was going to say and bowed out in what might be one of like 2 multi-thread /mlp/ stories that actually finished its story. >never used a pastebin for their thread links like absolute psychosDo not disrespect the apple tree
>>43054225Which is the other oneWas Jacky from /bootleg/ ever finished?What about Long and Short of It from RGRE
>>43053900DESU all the votes were legit. And I think Jack has a style that breaks all concepts.Solid A.Like anon mentioned there's no comparison, DD is a graphic designer who reminds me of Wavecipher, who probably have no idea who is Jack, or anyone, he just draws and experiments, takes any memes and ponify it for the sake of it.I don't know what happened at Mare Fair with snowpity cabbal but I believe there's one guy, Huffy who imagined a lot of things and the RL person isn't caring about him.Jack's a guy who always been free in his mind from all rules and pushes whatever goes in his mind on paper, and this makes it unique and is worth mentioning. Same, he doesn't care about popularity, he's drawing, painting crazy stuff and that's what I love.Algoatall and Violavaquita also are completely different, but they both focus on cuteness and comfyness, it grabs your inner child and that's the genius. I could find the best artists to introduce a normie to mlp, I'd show em any art by Algo and they would smile.If there's one thing in common with those artists they won't change, they stick to their guns, they know what they're doing and they usually do it right.>>43054028All the best stories have an end, and /pa/ thread just nailed it. You can try imagining some new thread yourself and start one, see how it goes, I hope to vote for it next year!
>>43050886Alright I try to get the big picture>French artist travels from Paris to Orlando to sell mlp art prints and have fun>Greeted by a 20yo twink wearing a dress>Ignores him, chats with the con staff instead>Crazy guy feels rejected, starts hating artist>Come up with random conspiracy theories
>>43054225>>43054437Huh. Wild that a story that long affably ended. I figured it just died like every thing else I loved on this site. Figured it’s the one I ignored
>>43054573Thanks for having kept your Mierdas touch off of /pa/, bro. ^;)
>>43047936Nyx won
>>43054573It's pretty crazy all things considered, man, it sucks when a general with a bunch of greens dies, just one day it's archived and that's it. Sometimes I get hit with the memories and search for those in the archive.>>43054772Rude /pa/l
>>43054422Fuck, I miss bootleg
>>43053900The fuck are you talking about? The guy was circlejerked to death and voted en masse by anons who wanted to BTFO the schizo. Also, talking about a cabal when Doomer is a known discordfag is funny.He didn't win because he's not that good.That's why if the awards are done next year, it's better to go with the art/image itself than namefags.It's easy to spam Darkdoomer's name, but pointing to one of his images and saying:>It's the best image of this year, trust me bro!is harder to justify.
>>43054422>What about Long and Short of It from RGREIt's still going, chapter 65 to 68 released this year.
>>43055751>The guy was circlejerked to death and voted en masse by anons who wanted to BTFO the schizoAnd if he couldn't win even with all that, what does it say about Jackvoters? ja0822ck drew NOTHING this year. Like wow, the Fluttershy /fit/ image and that makes him the best drawfag this year? Lel. Like, I alluded to earlier, someone who drew hundreds of images in 2022 and 2023 and then cut back to like 60 drawings this year without an increase in quality? That's what you are rewarding. No way.
>>43055751>He didn't win because he's not that good.Sorry, yes Ja82ck's art can be funny and undeniably great, but I like this more.
>>43055426I miss it too Dining
>>43054422>Which is the other oneIm genuinely and truly trying to think of one, even looked at a couple in the archives but can’t find one.Surely there must be ONE multi-thread story that finished? Just one that lasted 3 threads at minimum? Not even the THREE, HUNDRED holy fuck just three? Did we somehow congregate all the determined and iron will writefags willing to see it through in one thread? /mlp/ prove me wrong I’m positive you’re better than this and I’m just failing to think of it or find it
