Your waifu is going to lose
first for the next miss /mlp/ 2026.
>>43650535I never doubted my girl Rarity
>>43650519Even with the seeding there are some tough matchups in this first round. But I remain steadfastly confident that my mare will persevere.
>>43650519>Celestia versus Pip in the first round This is giving me anxiety.
voting by instinct. no thought. just immediate gut reaction.
>>43650519>Numget vs Lightning DustGood lord, I struggle to imagine a bigger stomp.
>>43650559I vote based on snowpity levels. And some of these entrants have pathetically low levels of snowpity.
The upper right bracket seems pretty stacked
>Limey>Mare Mayor>Queen bug>Candyass>Mud pie>RararaStiff competition indeed.
>>43650558FoEslop OC was one or two votes away from not passing nominations, even Joblestia should be able to win this
Man the right side is just unfair. Vinyl is pretty much cooked having to deal with Aryanne on round 2 whereas Octavia could easily make it to the semifinals before she has to face off against Celestia and then Rarity/Fluttershy/Trixie if she wins that too
I hope Rarity loses in the first round lol
>>43650610>losing to a con-mareHeresy
>>43650589Vinyl's not losing to Aryanne, chill out.
Sweet Sundae CHADWe shall win this!
>>43650669She needs to get at least 67 votes.
>>43650519Show me one scene where Coco Pommel is a background pony. I'll wait.
>>43650558It's over before it even began.
>Lyra vs Trixie before quarterfinalsOH COME ON!
>>43650718That's what you get for killing Dyx early, dumb lyroid
>>43650701
>>43650718At least Numget has a free pass to the semis
>>43650718Everyone spitevote Trixie NOW!
ShimGODS, it's time for the barbie smackdown of a lifetime
>>43650718Start THAT falseflag before that round
>>43650731Just falseflag for a bit about marecocks and "Trixie=Troon", that should kill any chances of her moving forward
>>43650747Sweet, a favela knife fight!
>>43650721Pretty Daisy
>>43650756>he says posting the oc made by a pozzed brownie
>>43650589>>43650638If normalfags weren't retarded offboarders they could've easily leaked the security questions to their groomcords and rigged the pageant for Normie Fair mascots through numerical advantage, but that requires someone capable of scraping Desu, and luckily they don't seem to have anyone like that
>>43650763>xhe thinks Woot created TracyHoly newfag
>>43650772>b-but my element of unor-Nobody cared until she was drawn by the """based""" nigger, larper.

I predict>both M6 get out early>anti-Pie backlash>miss out on Scratchtavia bowl AND Nicole Oliver bowl>Total Cheerilee VictoryAlso >>43650519 PageantAnon you dumb retard, Lighthoof's entry on the bracket says "Cup Cake"
>>43650965>Strawberry Sunrise wins against Princess Cadence and Rarity>Lily Valley wins against Fluttershy>Octavia wins against Princess CelestiaYeah no way this isn't bait
gimme mare matchups to draw
>>43650747Whoever wins keeps the custody of :i.did.nothing.wrong:?

>>43651011Sweet Sundae beats everyone.
>>43651037Donkey power
I'm doing my part.
>>43651001>Octavia wins against Princess CelestiaOctavia is a definite runner for overall winner this year based on past performance.>Strawberry Sunrise wins against Princess Cadence and RarityI can kind of see this just from cultural impetus but it seems very unlikely yeah. Cadance and Rarity do have a lot of spite voters though and they might end up prevailing over their fame.
>>43651011Glimmy beheading Noi!
This would be better if previous winners can compete. As it stands it really is just pity awards now.Only the previous year's winner should be excluded, and maybe not even desu senpai
>>43651118SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP APPLEJACK WINNING 12 YEARS IN A ROW IS NOT INTERESTING IT WILL NEVER BE INTERESTING THIS OPINION WILL NEVER BE CORRECT SHUT UPPPP
>>43651113>based on past performanceShe lost to Derpy back in 2024 and barely got 8th place last year. Just because she got 2nd place once in 2022 doesn't mean she's a realistic contender for overall winner 4 years later against Celestia, Rarity, Fluttershy and Trixie, you're comparing modern day Italy to the Roman Empire here
inb4>Anon starts answering questions a minute before they change>Anon finishes answering questions 17 minutes later>Anon gets disqualified even though he put the right answersinb4>offboarders leak answers to 100+ security questions, undoing years of work
>>43651115My wife would never do that!!
>>43650519GO SCOOTALOO
>>43651011Scootaloo hitting Aloe over the head with her scooter
>>43650563Fucking ridiculous how two Lyra alts are pitted against each other.
>>43651023Coloring takes so much fucking time, I prolly won't do it anymore
>>43651161Lmao, nice
>>43651161TRIXIECHADS STAY WINNING
>>43651011Draw Nyx beaming her cancer rays at Ashleigh
>>43650519Do I have to change my security question answers if I go change my votes?
Hello everygoony, here's Linky Shoeshine again. I am disappointed to only see my sisters Luckette and Screw Loose having gotten past the qualifiers. As I said, I will remember this.
Ew, what's that horrible smell?
What are your tough choices? >Amethyst Star vs Daisy>Lily vs Cloud Kicker>Sisi vs TwinkleshineBoth quality background mares in each case>Rara vs FleurI like Rara's song and memes, but Fleur is pretty and goes back to S1>Nightmare Moon vs FleetfootIt's Black Snooty's month, but Fleetfoot is my favorite Wonderbolt >Lyra vs DyxLyra is a good pony but Dyx is funnier >Cozy Glow vs AnonfillyThey're both shit>Sunshit Shitter vs Blue barbieSpent a minute trying to figure out which one I like less, but there's nothing to choose from
Always shit at answering the security questions, not a tourist, been lurking and interacting for years, just never seem to intersect at the right time and place.
>>43651212No need: the sheets let me know if an entry has been updated or changed. If you want to go back and edit your answers to the poll, I'll be able to see you answered earlier and can grade your answers for the original question. You can update them if you think you know the new set better than the old set too.
>>43651241better to vote out sunshit asap
>>43650965>Lighthoof's entry on the bracket says "Cup Cake"Derp. will fix that on the next iteration
>>43650535My waifu already won years ago
>>43651241>Rara vs Fleuronly genuinely hard one for me I think. In the end I just never liked the Fleur design that much, so that decided ithonorable mentions where I had to think for two seconds:>Cozy Glow vs Anonfillycozy glow is much worse due to being in canon content>Sunshit Shitter vs Blue barbieone had a pony pic
>>43651299I won years ago? *blushes*
>>43651276There's no way Sunset is making it past Daybreaker or Celestia anyway
Here we go again
>>43651307Based. Remember to vote for Trixie
>>43651303>DaybreakerI think she could, call it firehorse autism but I'm actually hoping for this match up because sunset vs the evil version of her teacher would be cool>CelestiaNo doubt Sunset would lose this but I'd be happy with just the match-up, Celestia vs Sunset's a match I've wanted for a long timeLooking at the bracket though I think Octavia is sunset's hard stop

>>43651337>G2ALMAO retard
>>43651344Sure, now post link
Yeah it's bullshit, for 25 bucks you can get around 5 google accounts, maybe up to 10 if you buy from russian Telegram sellers. It's a lot cheaper to use 5SIM with a sticky mobile proxy to create your own accounts
>>43651307>not knowing about the google skills exploit for infinite google accounts to use in pollsngmi

>>43651407>difficult isdifficulties*
fuck you ravenfag
>>43651407I did that in 2022 except I didn't have to pay a dime, I just prepared 'em in advance. You will always be inferior.
>>43651418Not him but it's a lot harder to make alt google accounts with their phone number verification system in place
>>43651307OH FUCK, VOTE RAVEN OUT, STAT!
>>43650519C-Candy Apples seems like an okay mare... I hope B-Big Mac fucks her someday and I g-get to watch... I think am a better mare though, b-but that makes it hotter...O-on the other hand, you, Mrs. Cake, are an absolute disgrace... W-while it is admirable that you are open-minded to the wonders of r-race mixing with that p-pegasus you fucked, y-you were already married... We must be understanding of when stallions want to cheat on us, they face h-heavy discrimination in our m-misandrist society a-and cope in any w-way they can... B-but to cheat on your stallion yourself is h-highly d-disrespectful... *cracks hooves*MRS CAKE... I WILL TEACH YOU TO BE A BETTER MARE!
>>43651435Fuck. I'm just going to need to wait a few years for this bullshit to blow over I guess. I love Raven but she literally can't make two rounds without a target on her back over the autist
>>43651449*specifically pony4koma
>>43651220>Greetings Stinky Linky, I am Anon E.

>>43651307>>43651407I'm no rigging expert but aren't all those accounts gonna get locked like a day after you use them? If you're not sure that your waifu's gonna make it to the semifinals then you're gonna need more than 50 accounts
LET'S GO, BUGFAGS, LET'S GO!
>>43650519RESPECT YOUR ELDERS.
>>43651546I wonder what hopeless attempt PageantAnon is gonna try to pull to stop that anon, does he even have a plan? The last time someone tried to do anything meaningful about rigging was when a Miss /co/ host started forcing voters to show their emails and they ended up getting booted by the other hosts next year
>>43651673PageantAnon will post Hitler edits about how being honest in a horsepussy survey is actually aryan as fuck
>>43651321I object to the juxtaposition of Nyx with those other two because Nyx is a step away from the degradation of the show and into a new and original universe with superior storytelling. and she's cuter

It could happenProbably not, but it could
>>43651880No point in screencapping, this was obvious the moment she was nominated
>>43651880>>43651915Oh boy, another pity winner year
>>43651935I'm trying not to feel bad about it anon, but it feels pretty crummy now that I found out.
>>43651507>>43651512>>43651584Marbletos became a better mare and overcame her speech disorder to give lectures on stallions' rights. She respects the opposite sex, the rich cultural diversity of Equus, and fights sexist chudettes and racists.
>>43651979Good thing her sister is the total opposite, and is hotter than her!
>>43651307>>43651407RIGGED!
>>43651880>Ashleigh Ball clears the whole tournamentThen the award is dead.
At least wait for Ashleigh to die first before handing her a pity win.
>>43650652Vinyl has been consistently a round 2 jobber for years I think. /mlp/ is unironically a conservative board that grows more conservative each year, they want a stay-at-home housewife with some flavor of choice and not a wild party girl like Vinyl
>>43651979
>>43651824>Mr Anonoh no
>>43651824Yay thanks anon!
>>43650519Niggermare Coon shouldn't be participating of this contest, Luna already won, Niggermare Coon is just Luna on her nigger chimpout mode, this is ridiculous, it would be like twifags suddenly brigading for Twilight Sparkle (alicorn) because they voted it's a different character
>>43652025Yeah but Nightmare Moon is better than Twilicorn, objectively.
>>43652007you're supposed to send her your energy before she dies so the magic of friendship has a chance to heal her...
>>43652025Thanks for the suggestion! Doing that next year
Celebratory doodle for Meegun She'll never win because there's a linkyfag with 100s of acounts, oh well
>>43652007>Ashleigh gets a pity win thanks to cancer news>collective psychic backlash of multiple angry horsefuckers who had their waifu stomped over worsens her health even further and sends her into an early grave
>>43651935That least this one makes sense unlike the horse everyone forgot about
If Ashleigh wins I feel sorry for whoever makes the trophy pic
>>43652025Yes but Nightmare Moon is like an entirely separate character with her own voice and personality distinct from Luna's. She's not just evil Luna. If Lunafags vote for the entity that consumed their beloved wife, that'd be weird, I don't see it happening. If NMM wins it's not a win for Luna.
>>43651845Starlight vs Aryanne would be kino if they make it that far.
>>43652098>like an entirely separate character with her own voice and personality distinct from Luna's. She's not just evil Luna.Not even lunafags can agree on this among themselves.
>>43652025Twifags tried that
>>43652098>She's not just evil Luna.I wonder how many more of the comics you think are good.
>>43652092Make it this
>>43652103No MarbleTOS vs Aryanne would be kino because Marble was born to fight racists and defend our griffon and zebra allies
>there's already a falseflag against Marbul
>>43652139She's the top seed, a returning top 4, and with Ponk gone ponkfags have no better place to funnel their autismIf you were smart you'd falseflag her too
>>43652139Rarifags are scared of the three-peat
>>43651407I have about 40 google accounts from scumming AI proxy trials. I will be using only only one of them, because I am ensouled.
Confession time, did anyone samefag their own nominations, or support the same nomination twice? How honorable are (you) anon? You're not planning to cheat now, are you?
>>43652139Falseflag? Marbletos is a better mare fair and square!
>>43651880/mlp/'s disdain for no hooves will outweight the pity they feel for Ashleigh.
>Less than 4 hours left>Still not even 1/3rd of the way to the bump limit>There's already blatant rigging and falseflaggingJust shut down the entire tournament at this point

The wonder horse, MAS Twilight, FIW Twilight, Infection AU Twilight, Winter Wrap Up Captain Twilight, Crazy Twilight from Lesson Zero, Petrified Twilight, FoE Twilight. They're all clearly different characters after all
Rolled 20 (1d131)Rolling for Rarity's final ranking.
>>43652516The only good Twilight is Nihilus Nix Naught
>>43652516>Crazy Twilight from Lesson ZeroAh, that's the good stuff.
>>43652516Can we have a Best Twilight mini bracket next time?
>>43652516>listed all of those but forgot Friendship is Tragic Twilightit's over... I'll have to hand over my twifag membership card
>>43652517
>>43652516Twifags are unironically like this, their autism knows no bounds
>>43652550And yet, they show more self-restraint than the people who voted for Niggermare Coon
>>43652573Probably because Nightmare Moon is HOTTER than Twilight!
>>43652516Don't forget:earth pony Twilight, Clover the Clever Twilight, Future Twilight from It's About Time, Treelight Sparkle, Pony Life Twilight, manga magical anime girl Twilight, manga Twilight that gets taken from the timeline where she fails to stop Nightmare Moon because Discord accidentally erased the original Twilight before he messed with time, old unicorn Twilight, G1 Twilight, and Twilight Twinkle
>>43652539Nothing stopping you from suggesting it if that's what you want, whether or not anons will vote for it is another story. I'm not against it, assuming there isn't a better suggestion for a new mini-bracket.
>>43652573Lunafags are cut from the sane autistic cloth. Just as Twiniggers can't agree what her character even is, Moontards can't agree if she was possessed (fanfiction) or just an emo bitch (canon)
>>43652573>>43652550Who would win, Blacklight Spookle or Nigmare Coon?
>>43652581I haven't seen a single moonfag say they think Nightmare Moon is separate from Luna
>>43652600Then you're new. Countless moonfags insist she's an innocent chungus forced to be evil by space magic
>>43652573Compare the verification results between NMM, Woona and Loony Luna, they all got significantly different approval ratios, do you think moonfags are responsible for that? 77.7% for NMM is exceptionally high, beaten only by Daybreaker's 81.9%.Even if moonfags do think NMM and Luna are the same, that doesn't change the general perception.It's not like she's going to go all the way to the final for a showdown with Celestia anyway.
>>43652516>>43652573dashfags would do this unironically

>>43652923Dude, resubmitting isn't against the rules
>>43652912>G%
>>43652882Even if she managed to beat Limestone, which she has never beaten a Pie sister before, then in the Ro8 she would be against Fluttershy, Lyra, or Trixie. She'll NEVER make it to the top 4.
>>43652929bro posting unc baps
>>43652905That's what I was trying to say, none of these are really my pick for 'best' mane. Take Marble for instance, her mane is stony, round and straight, it's cute and it suits her design, but it's not very interesting when examined on its own. Apple Bloom's is just completely bland. There's less popular mares with better manes. Milky's mane is one of my favorites though, so there's that at least.
>>43652935lyra will get knocked out before rarity
>>43652923There's nothing wrong with resubmitting anon, PageantAnon himself stated that if you have trouble with one set you can wait until the next set comes up.It's too late now of course, but still.

Did candy have the most onesided round? I know she had an extremely easy round but, theoretically, it shouldn't be any easier than higher seeds.Also did Sunset really not receive enough nominations for hottest?

>>43652905>That's what I was trying to say, none of these are really my pick for 'best' mane.>Take Marble for instance, her mane is stony, round and straight, it's cute and it suits her design, but it's not very interesting when examined on its own.>Apple Bloom's is just completely bland. There's less popular mares with better manes. Milky's mane is one of my favorites though, so there's that at least.Yeah.

MARBLETOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS!!!!!!!!Candy Applesura...Mrs. Cakesura...
The Round of 64 shall now commence!64 lovely ladies still push on through the Winner's bracket, while the 64 with one strike try one last chance for victory in this year's Loser's Bracket to claw their way back. Who will make it through our two brackets? Decide below, along with our on-going Mini-Brackets!Round of 64 Poll: https://forms.gle/kceyGoLuFijRQDNt5https://forms.gle/kceyGoLuFijRQDNt5https://forms.gle/kceyGoLuFijRQDNt5Time until Round 2 concludes: https://www.tickcounter.com/countdown/12110577/time-until-round-2-endsA couple of notes on the Mini-brackets for this round:>Milky Way was NOT supposed to be in the running for Best OC on account of her already winning the sub-tourney last year. With this in mind, Flawless Sparklemoon will be given a rematch with the next lowest OC from Qualifiers that should have made it in, Tolly>There were supposed to be two three-way matches in Best Mane on account of the last entrants having tied scores, however in my rush to get the Round of 128 up I forgot them. Ergo, Marble will be facing one more opponent she should have faced in a three-way last round.I will be needing to leave for a few hours soon and so it will take some time to get the updated bracket (both winner's and loser's) and returning with results of how our 27 discarded votes for failing security would have affected the round, but please look forward to both later this evening.
>Ashleigh beat cancer Congrats!
>>43653026The sub-categories are a total mess.

>Moondancer vs Floor Bored
>>43653097SUS
>>43653077The only significance Tracy still has is le 4cc memes, and she should honestly be replaced there too
>>43653097Already corrected if you refresh the page. Also mistakenly put Amethyst Star down in the Loser's Bracket instead of Daisy but now I think everything is looking correct.
>>43653098Whoever wins this match, we lose. Either pity pick or a rigging autist pick. Unless she's out next round.
>>43653089>>43653107/mlp/ is all about living in the past and denying the present. Sticking with old dried up 2011 memes would've been in-character. Moving on to autogynephilic loli fantasies is bad writing.

You were a good fish, Sonata, will vote you in loser's bracketNext for Shimmy is Twilight's mom. I think she likes seeing where Twi gets it from

>>43653160>S: ...where's Daybreaker?>V: She said some very mean things about Twilight, so I took care of her. You're next, missy! Twilight told me all about how you bullied her in that parallel universe!
don't care enough about this to check the archives and got no clue what the third question is even supposed to ask so I guess I got filteredNot that it matters. Every year, this becomes less about rooting for the mare you like and more about opposing the ponies you don't like. So I care less and less each time.
>>43653160Velvet is cuter and canon.
>>43653150She jobs this round btw
>>43653172Faust left the show because she couldn't deal with the stress of it due to ADD. Or that's what she said at Galacon.
>>43653160plot twist, sunset is actually closer to velvet's age than twilight's

>>43653277Moondancer goes outside occasionally to go to the library. Floor Board hasn't left her room in weeks.
>>43653259>>43653273You killed her. Don't you feel bad?
>>43653265I bet this fella likes sandbumpies
Who should Rarity have ended up with?
>>43653299The trash
Dazzling will lose to fire horse again...Very fitting for current year.
>>43653299Zecora's 20 hulking studly brothers
>>43653299Hayseed Turnip Truck
>>43653277Moondancer goes outside occasionally to go to the library. This gives her a wider variety of scents to pick up, giving her a stronger odor overall.Floor Board hasn't left her room in weeks. This gives her one, singular scent, which is strong, but not as strong as Moondancer's.
How far will JOBlestia go?
>>43653183Sexy.Don't give up hope though. I, newfag kun, will bring my bright and hopeful spirit to this tourny, because no I did not learn my lesson last year. Anons are honorable, their love for ponies genuine and true. I still remember the anon who gave me the answers to the security questions at the last minute when I had given up all hope. The spaghetti spilled, the anguish of research... yet in the end I found myself not resenting the pageant, once it was all over. Stay strong anon!
>>43653343Far enough to be disqualified next year.

>>43653347>losing is jobbing>losing and being unable to enter next year is jobbing harder>ergo being unable to enter ever again is the ultimate job>this is accomplished when a mare reaches first placeIt's all coming together
>>43653299They could have been cute in an opposites-attract coupling, though they sort of ended up doing that with Fluttershy and Discord.
>>43653353>this is accomplished when a mare reaches first place...in the jobbing competition
>>43653343Year of the fire horse, I believe in her
>>43653357Fluttershy and Discord is a dogshit ship. Your pic related wouldn't have been as bad but not great either.
>>43653353Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Verity, Princess Luna, Twilight Sparkle, Derpy Hooves, Pinkie Pie are all jobbers?? Say it ain't so...
>>43653299Damn I need her to kill me
>I voted for Cherry Jubilee but it was a tough call>she passed by 1 vote gee willikers
>>43653374>shipIt’s basically canon.
>>43653393And it made the show and Discord's character worse almost every time it was brought up.
>>43653366I don't really see Celestia as a fire horse, she's bright, wise and comforting, her mane gentle and majestic. More of a light horse, although her keeping a phoenix and controlling the sun, yeah.
>>43653366Daybreaker already jobbed though
I'm genuinely curious to see how she does against Spitfire.
>>43653374>>43653403Nope, you're wrong.
>>43653426You're entitled to your own terrible taste.
>>43653426Although I'm not fond of the ship I do admit I like how Discord approached his gift for her in The Best Gift Ever.>>43653431>Discord bullying FluttershyI'm reading your post in Discord's voice.
>>43653262Noh
>>43653435>Discord is a sigma male who just wants to be left alone >Fluttershy is hungry for the cockSounds about right
This thread is so slow. Next thread might have to be Round of 64 + Round of 32
You know, what really matters most to me is that that bitch Cheerilee doesn't win.
>given the choice between Noi and Glimmer, 155 people chose GlimmerGross.
>>43653471This but with RarityWhat an ugly botch that NOBODY loves
>>43653073Question regarding the Most Autistic mini-bracket - since Anonfilly already won Most Autistic and Pissfilly failed verification as an alt - wouldn't that bar her?
>>43653481never liked this picture tbdesu
>>43653483why not?
>>43653483Well neither did Rarity but here we are
>>43653486It's ruining perfectly good glass.
>>43653476You really botched that post, didn't you anon?
why do people hate rarity again? is it because they self insert as the mob in that one crappy episode?
>>43653508Her flaws remind them of women they dislike so they dislike her as a result.
>>43653508I just hate rarifags and take any opportunity to spite them
>>43653019
>>43653508She's a prissy slut who starts sobbing anytime anything doesn't go her way, and she has a really punchable face. She's also a unicorn supremacist and a pedophile.
>>43653508Waifus are supposed to be idealized, and while Rarity is idealized to an extent, being a cartoon character and all, she's still too realistic and thorny for autistic manchildren populating this board. Throwing tantrums and using their appearance to gain advantages are things many men can't stand about IRL women, and Rarity does both. This makes many autists seethe.
>>43653246God I love mareniggers
>>43653525>She's also a unicorn supremacist and a pedophileRarigods just keep winning!
>>43653525Now tell us about all that character Cheerilee has.
>>43653525>>43653476>>43653471>they don't know the Cheerilee slap-fight of 2025 was just a proxy conflict of the Finno-Korean Hyperwar
Vote for Lyra
>>43653572I think I already did, but don't get too excited, I prefer her opponents in the next round.
>>43653572lyra is mareslop. total slopmare
>>43653561Cheerilee is sweet and kind
>>43653604>cheerilee>sweet
>>43653535>Throwing tantrums and using their appearance to gain advantages are things many men can't standWhether autists like it or not, these are naturally feminine traits that regular men take for granted. It honestly makes me sad that many autists aren't able to get over the betrayal of having been lied to as young children that "boys and girls are exactly alike" or whatever. That expectation really set up a lot of them for failure with women, but because they're autists, they can't accept that women's behaviour itself is not the grand injustice. On one hand, they nearly accept logically that women act irrationally, but they're still compelled for whatever reason to expect the opposite.
>>43653523One day... Meegunbro...
>>43653508I don't dislike her at all. She doesn't have that main character energy to win this.
>>43653612She's the best teacher we could hope for
>>43653622pinkie pie won though...
make only my vote count and nobody else's and watch the pageant quality improve drastically
>>43653643Make a chart with how you want the matchups to go.
>>43653650Agreed. If you're really committed give us the ideal bracket.
>>43653641I know right? She's the main character.
>>43653653her solo episodes are the worst though
>>43653639>starts singing the song about how she can't find a coltfriend (because she's such a bitch).
Daisy post before bed
Okay /mlp/ I know literally all of you hate me and want me to rope but here's the deal: if Sunset and Stellar Flare win and face off then I'll be so overwhelmed with the need to jerk off that I can't possibly keep voting anymore. My lust for sun-flavored hags will override any other intelligible thoughts in my brain, demanding that I coom so much until my walls peel from the sheer STENCH of non-stop gooning. As everyone is aware, barbiefags such as myself, in addition to being brown, evil, corporate slaves, third world, [negative adjective], responsible for everything bad that has ever happened, and chosen ones of the jannies, are also the #1 source of rigging due to our dozens upon dozens of alts fired up and ready to spitevote. If I'm too busy busting to redheaded sun-flavored hags then I couldn't possibly use any of them. Pretty simple, right?
This thread is unbelievably slow. /mlp/ is fucking dead.

>>43654016>>43654025Sweetie Belle and Rarity aren't even close to the level of sluttiness that this pink succubus has.
>>43653937If Rarity jobs, we might see Chrysalis vs Cadance....
Vote for Glimmy!
>>43654087Kys glimmerfag
>>43654092>kiss your StarlightRight away!
>>43653937>Limestone vs ChrysalisIt's fucking over, limebros. Of course people are gonna go full Reddit and vote for the dommy bugmommy.
>>43654087Do you mean I can touch the picture or your actual butt?
>>43654116Yes!
>>43654087A fruitful marriage or BUST!Rarity ftw
>>43654087Glimmy would never whore herself out like this!right?
>>43654141That's how she convinced Fluttershy
my prediction
>>43654151
>>43654151Glimmy 2nd place behind Rarity
>>43654151Delusional as fuck
>>43654151But enough about the loser's bracket
>>43654151>Grok, make the most boring ass fuck chart possible challenegeAnd there is no way Scootaloo will defeat Marble.
>>43654151THE ICONS LOOK SO MUCH BETTER THAN MOST OF THEIR IMAGESFUCKThis prediction is off it's meds tho lol ain't no fucking way /mlp/ puts glim over Celestia this year. Someone would actually buy accounts to try and stop that from happening
>>43654175I will NOT be taking my medsI WILL add a crackpipe as a source Starity ship ftw
>>43654182Classy mares!
>>43654151I just want her to be real
>>43654151DWK?
>>43653955I backed her last year, I’ll back her again!
>>43653622>She doesn't have that main character energy to win this.But enough about Rainbowshine
What's with the samefagging rarifag? Is this a falseflag?
>>43654099Oh fuck off newfag Lime was in top 8 and Chrysalis wasn't, you're not the underdog here bitch
>>43654416He knows his waifu is gonna job because anons find it funny when she does so he's trying to post more of her and form an alliance with the Glimmerfags to minimize the damage from the Rarity jobber meme
>>43654461>form an alliance with the GlimmerfagsNo wonder Rarifags continue losing with such retarded decisions
My top 8 prediction for this tournament is:FluttershyPrincess CadanceTrixie LulamoonRaritySunset ShimmerPrincess CelestiaMaud PieVinylSo it is written, so it shall be.
>>43654458>and Chrysalis wasn'tGOOD! I HATE CHIGGERS!
>>43654588>Princess Cadance>RarityThey have to face off next round, dummy>Sunset ShimmerIt's uncertain if she can even survive against Velvet>VinylSame case as Sunset but with AryanneA lot of these are jobbers, m8
>>43654602Loser's bracket comebacks maybe
>>43654461I find it much funnier when Fluttershy loses to some nobody mare
>>43654631It’s Fluttershy’s year.
>>43654654I really doubt it, anon. She's even weaker than Rarity based on past tournaments, she's about the same level as Octavia who she jobbed to in 2022 but also placed 6th compared to Tavi's 8th last year
>>43654654You have no idea how funny it is to cuck flutterfags out of everything. Discord really fucked you fags up forever
>>43654674>the pony who has made it to the finals is weaker than the pony who has never made it past the top 8nigger what?
>>43654461And now Jobity will be associated with brapfaggotry and score even lowerGood job, Rarifag!
Vote for Mooney!
>>43654704>the pony who has made it to the finals is weaker than the pony who has never made it past the top 8Yes.
Daisy!
>>43654461>trying to shame waifufags for loving their wifeI'm voting for Rarity and Glimmer now.
>>43654914can you vote for fluttershy please?
>>43653508>>43654684her fans are rude, like this one here.
>>43654920I'm voting for her this round and next round, after that it depends on who her opponent is. If she manages to go up against Rarity it's going to be a tough call but... I think I'm leaning towards Rarity. Sorry anon, I really do like Fluttershy too.
>>43653900Twilight and Cheerilee both say this in the show but we know both will have a barren womb and no foals. What does Princess Celestia have over those two? She is already barren and foalless.
>>43654920Maybe up until her matchup with Rarity.>the only m6 left are seeded into the same quadrantRigged?
>>43654995But thanks to the loser's bracket they could still theoretically meet up again at the finals for a rematch. Although, wouldn't the outcome remain the same? Or maybe seeing a loser comeback would be enough to tip things in her favor? Guess we'll see.
>>43654995Fluttershy and Rarity love to job to background mares in the quarterfinals, so the two of them going up against each other is the only way one of them goes to the semis It's going to be Fluttershy again, by the way
>>43655056Man, the Verity trophy pisses me off. All the other trophies have proper rendering and then there's this completely flat drawing.
>>43655047Nice donk prediction
>>43653937Swibblegods are gonna WIN
>>43655065Pity winner, pity trophy
>>43654914you can love your waifu, just don't shove her in my face while trying to recruit different waifufags into voting for her (unless you're trying to hurt Rarity's reputation this way, which is even worse)
>>43650519THIS IS HER YEAR
>>43655126AIEEEEE
Predicting Trixie Celestia finals with the TGAPT coming out on top
i don't believe you people understand the concept of double elimination
>>43655140The loser's bracket isn't filled out enough yet for me to make a call
>>43655117If that were the case then Applejack shouldn't have a rendered trophy either
>>43655138>The The Great and Powerful TrixieSmartest Trixiefag.
>>43655151Trixie is just THAT great and powerful. You wouldn't understand.
>>43655142so your solution is just ignoring it and predicting one half of who will be in grand finals?
>>43655100Swettie Belle is too borderline illegal for me to pick her over Rarity.
>>43655156Whoever's winning the loser's bracket almost certainly isn't one of the mares already in it, but will be one of the ones eliminated in semi or quarterfinals.In which case my best guess is Octavia who I think would lose to Trixie as well
>>43655140Predicting Cozy Glow will make a comeback from the losers bracket.She's playing 5D chess
>>43655164gayer words have never been spoken
>>43655140In all fairness it's a lot more effort to double check what the potential loser matchups are going to be, you have to fill up the entire loser's bracket based on how PageantAnon has set it up and what your predicted losers are.
>>43655295SB will just have to be sexually frustrated for a few years as I fuck her sister in the other room.
I've already voted using my 40 gmail accounts. I still have 10 votes left. Who should I vote for?
>>43655327This post doesn't even make any sense, why would you change your mind halfway through rigging?
>>43655327Use those gmail accounts to contact your father instead.
>>43655338Everything's going according to plan, relax.
>>43655327
>>43655327Bring Milky to the top
>>43655065Make a better one thenIt pisses me off too
>>43655327Sunset Shimmer
>>43655322don't worry, she has someone to keep her from getting frustrated
>>43655398That someone?Ponyville's entire male population (or at least those who aren't currently busy with her big sister).
>What is bakIs this actually asking about gak or what?
>>43655453Lurk more
>>43655065>>43655370it's because some fag rushed to do the drawing before the anon who usually makes them
>>43655386based
Aw man, I just realized Wikipe-tan didn't make it to the main brackets. I wanted her to advance so I could bring her up in conversations.And have an excuse to tell even more people about the time a featured Wikipedia article on the main page had explicit clop as the head image
>>43655415you're half right
>>43655047I'm going to kill myself if this turns out to be the final outcome this year
>>43655555>quintsKEK HAS SPOKENKILL YOURSELF IMMEDIATELY, AS THIS IS THE RESULT PER HIS WORD
>>43655555https://youtu.be/49OkkOM3OtQ?t=6
>>43655555>quintuple 5'sNow you have to do it lol
>>43655453Kek, found an anon asking the same thing in 2020, I get it now.
>>43655555do you really hate octavia that much?
>>43655592I don't hate her but I'm seriously going to go insane it if a fucking donkey wins miss /mlp/ before my waifu does
>>43655597It's always Rarifags kek.
>>43655555Checked, better hope she doesn't win, eh anon?!
>HEE HAW>this kills the Whorse/Flutterfag
Can you guys believe that we used to get 3 threads PER ROUND in 2020?
>>43655638
>>43655642No because I wasn't here in 2020
>falseflagging as rarichads*yawn*
>>43655646Rainbowshine rewatch tranny...
>>43655659So where are those Rari"""chads""" when their waifu needs them the most?
>>43655659the guy never said his waifu was rarity, though
>>43655642yeah there was a lot of life here back then. hard to survive 6 years with no good official content.
>>43655687The G5 movie in 2021 was good, so it's actually only 5 years...
>>43655642And at some point it didn't take /mlp/ a better half of a decade to barely crawl through 3.5 million postsIt will only get slower from here
>>43655688the movie was fine, not bad, but not good enough to restart the fandom or subfandom.
>>43655687I know the board is getting slower, but I don't suppose the new and oldfag frustration regarding the pageant is killing it off? I can't say for sure but it feels more low energy than last year, though my own enthusiasm remains the same.Maybe the absence of ponk is just that devestating.
>>43655741Early rounds in Miss /mlp/ is slower I've noticed compared to other tournaments. IMO there is a lot of fat to trim even after the qualifier stage
>>43655741Perhaps 4/6 of the mane 6 being out might have something to do with it. For a significant number of anons their waifus already won, therefore they no longer have a reason to care about the pageant.This means that both Rarity and Fluttershy are more unpopular than we previously thought.
>>43655741Ponk's victory was from pure riggerdryShe has no place amongst the current victors
I, for one, stick to pageant threads to see which one of M6 members will become the Jobber Supreme by being the last one to win
>>43655753>Perhaps 4/6 of the mane 6 being out might have something to do with it. For a significant number of anons their waifus already won, therefore they no longer have a reason to care about the pageant.You're right.
>>43655753>>43655765
>>43655756this, anyone pretending like that shit was legit is either a fresh newfag or lying
Raven lost and will keep losingNo amount of falseflagging or burner accounts will ever matter
>>43655764You already know it's going to be Rarity
>>43655750I suppose that's the nature of seeded placements too, it's set up so the matchups gradually become more intense with each round.
>>43655670Voting for her once per person as Celestia intended.
I need to make her into a fuckable fullsize
>>43655815The way you phrased that makes it sound like you want to taxidermy her...
>>43655765So top 4 are gonna be Celestia, Rarity, Fluttershy, Sunset Shimmer this year?
>>43655857>Sunset Shimmerno
>>43655857Celestia and Sunset share a quadrantRarity and Fluttershy share a quadrant
>>43655821I may or may not have drunk a wine bottle atpI mean make a №3 size plush of her, taxidermy implies she is real
I have a MIGHTY NEED for grabable welost-sized mare-thighs
>>43655902>I mean make a №3 size plush of herWeak. It's 1 or nothing
>>43655902Tell us what you love about Rarara, anon. You don't just love her because she's sexy, do you?
>>43655902>taxidermy implies she is realB-But she IS real!
>>43655741overall post numbers are higher than they were for most of the year, so the pageant is probably bringing some life. frankly a lot of the activity of prior years was falseflagging, shitposting, drama, etc so until that sets in, we'll probably be quiet. Anons don't campaign as hard as they used to either.
>>43655965What do you mean? there's already lots of falseflagging going on already, this is not mutually exclusive with the thread being dead.
I'm curious if any sunfags are rooting for her.
>>43655940I love to draw her in dresses. Her personality just scratches the monarchism itch that Twilight and the Princesses cannot.Mon petit chou fleur is more than a Jane Doe, she is a fanatic for and a creator of culture. Mio grande amore, l'ultima amore.
Less than 2 hours remain, vote for your mares! Here’s Cheerilee’s lesson in case you need any further information on a certain contestant.
Loser's bracket is hard to predict. I tried to follow how Mr /mlp/ 2020 worked, but I might have screwed up somewhere.
>>43656095>Rarity wears perfume so she doesn't attract all of the stallion with her stinkWow! So generous of her to give a chance to the other mares of Ponyville.
>>43656115Loser's Bracket can be a little tricky, but there is a guide for it here as Challonge can do Seeded double elimination brackets that I'm using for this tournament and I believe I used back in 2020 as wellhttps://challonge.com/qoyadit6There is just one other thing to keep in mind, which is that all Loser's Bracket rounds past Round 2 will be 4-way matches rather than traditional one-on-one's so it can keep pace with the Winner's Bracket and not take twice as long to finish like Mr. /mlp/ 2020 did.
>>43656115>he actually filled out the loser's bracketI'm impressed, but if the matchups are done how they're marked on the loser's bracket on challonge, they'll be different. Regardless your prediction seems fairly sensible to me. That part where Fluttershy loses to Celestia and then immediately rematches her I think is wrong- I think PageantAnon said losers that far in won't get second chances. I have to go back and check.
>>43656172Oh. Too bad I fucked that up.
Or I guess PageantAnon could just clarify it since he's here, whoops.
>>43656183>That part where Fluttershy loses to Celestia and then immediately rematches her I think is wrongThat is correct. The other caveat to selecting Loser's Bracket was that once you make it to the Finals, there are NO second chances - it is win or bust. This is again to avoid Loser's Bracket dragging on as while it can be unfair that the Final 2 are the only ones who don't get a second chance, to allow it would drag the tournament out for 2 or even 3 more days as they match up against the Loser's Bracket winner, then the Loser's vs Winner's, then possibly a rematch of the very same match if the Winner lost.There is only one extra round this year with the winner of the Winner's Bracket vs the Loser's Bracket, and it's winner take all. So make especially sure you vote if your lady of choice manages to make it all the way to the Finals.
>>43656172I thought I understood the loser's bracket but after this post I have no idea what's going on. Oh well, I wouldn't want to vote for loser mares anyways
>>43656203Normally a Loser's Bracket works like this>Two losers from the last round face off>The winner faces a new loser from the Winner's Bracket>The winner of that match fights another winner from the adjacent Loser's Bracket>That winner fights a new loser from the Winner's BracketAnd so on. This is why it takes twice as long for the Loser's Bracket to finish.Instead, we run four-way matches so the competitors are knocked out twice as quickly. Where you see in Challonge on the Loser's Bracket where there are two match-ups, they're instead combined since the winner of these two would face each other anyway, so it let's us skip a round and keep up with the Winner's Bracket.
>>43656223I get it now, thanks PageantAnon.
>>43655911Based
>>43656197Wait, so it's a crown steal? The winner of the loser's bracket actually has a shot to snatch the victory away from the winner at the last day?
>>43656245IndeedIt keeps the guessing and intensity to the maximum. No one really knows who'll win, as long as people keep on voting. Even if you got a bad matchup
>>43656223this didn't help much (I'm finishing what's left from the anni tonight) but it made me look at >>43653937 again and that made it click. Seems obvious now, thanks PageantAnon
>>43656247>Rarity finally wins>gets her win stolen last second by Glimmer whose autistic fans rigged the loser's bracketK-kino...
>>436562474 way rounds also makes it harder to spite vote a pony you don't like, since votes split between their 3 opponents may cause them to still go through.At least in theory.
>>43655857Sunset will never win more than 3 times in a row because she the single most rage inducing pony on /mlp/
>>43656266>not Glimmer>not Cozy>not Nyx>not any of the G% characters that didn't even qualify this year
>>43656268>rage inducing>Nyx What did Nyx ever do to you?
>>43656278Not me, but it's tradition to hate her on /mlp/ for being a super special alicorn OC.
>>43656268None of those had an entire other schizo altchan made to exclude them, AnonCozy is Habershit but gets more sympathy or cunnylust than hateNyx is a shitpostDog% is dead and forgottenGlimmer is hated but isn't also seen as the face of an entirely different series many despise on principle
>>43656280Maybe 10 years ago. Now she's part of a comedy duo with Dyx.
>>43656268yes, I would vote for all of those except the shitty dragon, if you can call that a character, over her
>>43656278nyxfag was one of the most annoying faggots on this board for a little while. my opinion of nyx improved a thousand times when he fucked off and now she's a shitpost.
>>43656286The fact that Shimmer can stay in the running slightly longer than all of them speaks that she's not as hated.
>>43656300She's loved AND hated. They cancel out so she eats shit to any character with enough general appeal.
>>43656310cutie
>>43656312I just want her to get one win, that's all, she's the most underrated out of the flower trio
>>43656324She has my vote
>>43656333Checked...
It's over.
Rarigods, how are we still surviving this?!
MARBLETOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS!!!!!Cherry Jubileesura...
bugbros what the fuck
The Round of 64 has now come to a close!With 276 total responses, minus 20 that needed to be removed for failing verification, we now have our top 32 contestants for the Winner's Bracket, while 64 remain fighting on in the Loser's Bracket.Round of 64 Results: https://forms.gle/kceyGoLuFijRQDNt5Expect the Round of 32 to begin shortly. Hopefully, I can also create a new bracket image for next OP before the thread archives.
nyx and dyx both out. brutal.
>>43656300Only because this board is the only gathering place for EQGfags, I wouldn't be surprised if they start to outnumber the pony fans here in a few years.
>>43656399Cherry Jubilee, a filtry c*pitalist and working class exploiter, was taught to be a better mare by the social justice warrior MARBLETOS!!Now Cherry will fuck Big Mac if she knows what's good for her!
>>43656409>internet gets progressively browner with every passing year>amount of barbiefags also grows each yearHmmm...
She did it...!
>Coco lost to GlimmerI'm not even mad LMAO
>>43656403Not looking good for Rarifagstoo close for comfort.
>>43656403>AB is the only CMC who didn't make it to the next round
>>43656410Ugh, I know it's a falseflag but it still makes me not want to vote for Marble if this is going to happen every round.
Holy shit Cogy Zlow just RETVRNED from the loser's bracket!
>>43656426No she's still in. Only the winner of the loser's bracket can return. She'll have to go through four-way hell now. Good luck!
>>43656424And SweetieBVLLs are still in it
>>43656424Lyra bullies a filly every year. vote for lyra btw
I'm convinced the pure sex Cloudy Quartz picture is what caused her to beat Linky
>>43656436Imagine if Sweetie Bell went farther than Rarity, wouldn't that be funny
And we are set for the Round of 32 to start! The Winner's Bracket continues to narrow down to the cream of the crop, while the Loser's Bracket marches on with 64 competitors locked into four-way matchups! Who will proceed onto Round 4 of 2026?

Uhh???
>>43656441She'll be crushed by Fluttershy now. Fillies don't do well in Miss /mlp/. Even with all the hate Fluttershy gets, she's just naturally more powerful.
>Security Questions responses hiddenHow will I know if I passed!!?
We can have Coco vs Suri next round in loser's bracket if you fags don't screw this up!
>>43656439Images matter, even if it only influences a few people.
Once again Sunset wins despite every predictionfag saying otherwise, now time to plap Dash's mom in this back to back MILF showdown
>>43656403it'll probably take another >20 years for any of them to acutally win, but I'm always surprised by how many people have terrible taste in mares
Another close win for Glimmy, I'm so proud of her. That's more than I can ask for.
>>43656465>Back to back milfsIf Cream Heart beats Octavia not voting against my donk just saying that's another MILF in the next round for Sunset and then possibly a MILF gauntlet leading up to the MILF of MILF's herself Celestia.
>>43656465if barbie tm wins against *the* sexiest mom in this show I'm rage quitting
Surprised baconhair pulled through against momlight
>>43656465>school bully fucks her victims' momsHoly NTRkino
>>43656499>Holy NTRkinoYUM! Voting Sunset NOW!!
>>43656499>her victimsDidn't Twilight trounce her both in canon and in this contest a few years ago?
>>43656417I thought for sure Coco had it, surprising upset by Glim Glam.
>>43656446Me
How long before I have to make difficult decisions? These rounds have been easy so far.
New bread?
>>43656527Working on the updated bracket image right now, racing against the thread archiving to see if I can finish it so it's the next OP but if it gets too close (I think I have a couple hours) I'll make the new thread with the previous bracket image.
>>43656488She's too much like my mom for me to crank it to Windy but more power to you hagmaxxer
>>43656515Glimfags are riggin' it
>>43656488I don't care either way since I know they'll both lose to THE GREAT AND POWERFUL TRRRRIXIE anyway, but I do want to see you chimp out... So that decides my vote
>>43656507FUNNYROO
Starting to have a lot of my votes come down to spite now. I guess they were before as well stuff like "inoffensive background pony" vs. "inoffensive background pony" doesn't really hit the same way as "shit OC" vs. "cute pony" or "3DPD" vs. "cute pony">Finish the phraseIs that really board culture?
>>43656552Uh oh, someone got filtered by the dark words of the Devil himself
>>43656507I know this is blatant falseflagging but the fact that Marbletos are so annoying the rest of the year doesn't helpLimestonefags know they are in the minority and still work very hard for their mare, Maudfags got cucked in canon but remain loving their mare no matter what, while Marble is such a generic shy demure quiet femenine archetype that all the annoying chuds with no personality get attached and weirdly proud of herIt's like simping for Hinata. Falling for the lowest hanging fruit, requiring the least amount of effort to fantasize as your perfect waifuCloudy is goated though she has my vote
>Cinder Glow doesn't have her hotter imageRapidash Twilight it is I guess.
>>43656412oy stop noticing.
Is Coco really a background pony though?
>>43656590Apparently she started as one.
>>43656590I don't think so personally, so I voted against her in that category. Simple as.
>>43656590YesJust like Applejack
>the random questions this roundKek, that's funny.

>>43656600This. She has several episodes where she's a secondary character, that does not count as background pony. I like her more than her opponent, but I voted against her because she shouldn't be in the category.

>>43655766Either this is 5yo data, or I missed this poll and the other Discordfag is younger than me. Cute.
