So two nights ago, Google decided to do a maintenance on Blogger. They were a bit short on night crew staff though, so they hired some free-lance coders to do the work.
Trollestia, being the stellar deity that she is, recommended Derpy Hooves, and because you guys keep writing about how much of a silent genius she is, Google brought her on board without any sort of test.
Well needless to say, Derpy Hooves is in fact, not a genius.
She is actually really bad at coding.
So the maintenance was botched.
Luckily, the Great and Powerful Trixie took time out of her EXTREMELY important and always busy schedule to fly down to the Google HQ and fix it all for them. Unfortunately it took her a day to get to the server room, because crowds of Google employees wanted to pet her PRISTINE mane and tail. She literally had to wade through an armada of them. The actual fixing process took the Great and Powerful Trixie less than a few minutes.
tl;dr) Google done goofed and we lost ponies for a day. 15 hours worth of posts are gone, but will supposedly be brought back soonish, so I am not going to re-post them to avoid double posts.
tl;dr #2) Ghetto Dash Banner because trollestia is HORRIBLE LUCK
tl;dr #3) Big compilation posts incoming!
tl:dr #4) Please go Re-vote on story upload posts!

ReplyDeleteDerpy IS a genius... she just got her hooves muddled up while coding :(

ReplyDeleteThose were times of darkness...
ReplyDelete...now it's time of Trixies!
I'm glad to hear this, since I thought there was something wrong with my computer.
ReplyDelete...unless Derpy went and turned the posts into muffins
ReplyDeleteMaybe Derpy is SUCH a genius, no modern computer is advanced enough to understand her. Maybe her code cannot be processed by any computer with fewer than 700 terabytes of RAM, running a version of Windows from the year 2200.
ReplyDeleteNot her fault you people are a bunch of cavemen.
Well, at least my fanfic got lots of attention that way, and yet a single $%&* wasn't given that day.
ReplyDeleteJust noticed some posts are being restored. Might be a continuing process.
ReplyDelete@AnonymousA program that requires massive amounts of ram and incredibly advanced features to perform an already existing task is hardly genius.
ReplyDeleteI thought this was a prank by Trollestia.
FINALLY
ReplyDeleteI'm been wanting to comment on a few things, and couldn't all of yesterday D:
Come on Seth, give poor Derpy her due. It was the sheer weight of bronydom that took down Google. And while Trixy is all great and powerful, Derpy was mostly done with the repairs by the time Trixy finished basking in the praise of her fans.
ReplyDeleteI think muffins were involved with this incident.
ReplyDeleteOooooo. Nice Banner.
ReplyDeleteThe banner? Why? Whhhhyyyyy?
ReplyDelete@Anonymous To add on to my comment
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty good though
Good thing I don't work at Google. I would have pet Trixie's pristine mane and tail for a week straight
ReplyDelete@Agnitio Ex Machina
ReplyDeleteComments on blogger went down before (or maybe right after) your story was posted on the blog. Nobody could comment on your story.
WOOT. Also, the banner is so wrong, but kind of funny too. :P
ReplyDeletemust be very hard to type code with hooves
ReplyDeleteLove the new banner! Also, yay.
ReplyDeleteWas that 300 words? Was that Sethisto's TG&PT story submission? :p
ReplyDeleteYou people only see the banner as wrong because you have sick minds. I see it as ponyplay...not sexual. Which is also why there are too many ponies.
ReplyDeleteWelcome Back!
ReplyDeleteAnd very nice Banner :3
missed ponies so so much, London time means nearly all day without ponies...
ReplyDelete@Agnitio Ex Machina
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing wrong with the banner, but gosh darnet. I googled ponyplay and now i wish I didn't.
YAY
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeletel2unicorn :D. Obviously why trixie was better a coding!
Dash looks like she sees something she likes.
ReplyDeleteLike Spitfire's ass, lol. But still, maybe Pinkie is standing off-camera in front of Spitfire.
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad the comment button works again. Actually, them servers at google don't do windows. Also, I'm doubting the genius of using more resources then you have.
It's like sending 30600 words to a 300 word story contest.
Oh wait... didn't we do that?
so no pony this week the last 15 h no equestria daily this to much for my now post shipping ASAP :3
ReplyDeletewhat you looking at dashie??
ReplyDeletealso come on seth we all know derpy is a genius don't underestimate her
dat banner
ReplyDeleteThere was a story voting post?
ReplyDeleteDat banner
ReplyDeleterainbow looks like a perv trying to see underneath spitfires tail.
ReplyDeleteThis would of course happen when I publish my first work of fiction ever in ten years. Curse you, Google! Curse you!!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back ED! It was getting depressing without you.
Sure sounds like Trixie propaganda to me.
ReplyDeleteI know the truth Trixie.
I actually like this banner.
ReplyDeleteParasprites have eaten the internet tubes!
ReplyDelete*points, screams, falls over*
And so, Friday the 13th was spent entirely without ponies. Probably should have seen it coming, really :).
ReplyDeleteDerpy is the penultimate pony in the field of Derpology.
ReplyDeleteShe's just not qualified for coding and site/server manetenance.
Trixie actually sabotaged Derpy's coding, and then fixed it to look like the hero. Poor Derpy.
ReplyDeleteIs it bad that I actually like this banner?
ReplyDeleteI can't wait until I finish my Dashfire! I must finish before this banner is taken down! *goes off to write*
ReplyDeleteIs that what happened to Jack and the Ponies? I was one chapter away from finishing when Blogger Blooped on us...
ReplyDeleteSoooo I shouldn't re-email you then?
ReplyDeleteMake sure to resubmit "Common Sky"
ReplyDeleteIt vanished from the May 12th submissions and it was such a good story!
That's what you get for selling Equestria Daily to Microsoft !
ReplyDeleteYea, next time sell to Apple(jack).
ReplyDeleteLies! All of it lies! Trixie is taking credit for what was obviously fixed by Derpy!
ReplyDeleteiamacleverpony.jpg
So I'm not the only one who thinks that Dash is moments away from pouncing on Spitfire, right?
ReplyDelete@Anonymous: I'm going to wait until this evening. If it looks like Google actually fully nuked it, I'll get Sethisto to re-post it.
ReplyDeleteSo what does this mean for the 300 word submissions?
ReplyDeleteThis banner is amazing. Hey, think we could get The Great and Powerful Trixie to take a look at PSN?
ReplyDelete@B-Man
ReplyDeleteShe's on the prowl for more candyvag.

ReplyDeleteThis is what I'm referring to.

Seconded! Not that I've read it yet, but I like Twilight/Luna fics and I didn't get a chance to.
Naw, Derpy's just not good with computers.
ReplyDeletedoes anypony have links to the Docs for that Luna X Twilight story and the Samurai Jack crossover? I was reading those,

Common sky
and I just had the sequel to "calling the shots" ready too...
ReplyDeleteI guess y'all have to wait (or visit my fic list)
The posts still don't appear to be back yet...
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid of not being able to find them again; would it be possible to make a compilation of the posts that were briefly lost when they come back? I seem to remember about three fanfics I wanted to look at that are gone, and updates missing, like the Luna vs. The Microwave update which is gone.
