Pony History of the Day: The Words of Faust
by Calpain
One of the amazing things that quickly became apparent to the fandom during the early days was the openness of the staff itself, particularly creator Lauren Faust. Quite frequently she answered a number of questions about Equestria, her work, her interests, behind the scenes process of making the show and much more either on her deviantArt page, Twitter or interviews she once did with EqD, 4chan, Ponychan and others years ago.
In her answers she revealed a lot of what she thought of certain events in the show, things that had been cut or changed, and giving detailed background on a number of subjects, clarifying some of the fandom's earliest questions mostly back between 2011-2013.
Going through the archives of Equestria Daily the best I can, I have compiled a large list of answers Lauren has given over the years but if you know of some I have missed, please feel free to add them in the comments! These span several years and it's quite possible I missed some.
This is going to be a long article as I copy interviews, pictures and more from various articles on EqD over the years so be prepared for a wild ride!
Lastly, a big thanks to the Ponycon crowd at our EqD panel for helping us come up with this idea to spotlight Lauren's old answers.

Rainbow Dash Wig in Ghostbusters Trailer?
by CalpainWhile watching the new Ghostbusters trailer today I noticed something that at least some of you noticed as well according to the emails in our inbox. During the trailer at one point a certain rainbow colored wig in same sort of style we see for Rainbow Dash cosplay popped up at one point.Now just because a rainbow colored wig shows up in a movie doesn't mean it's necessarily pony but considering the cast is made up of scientists and has that nerdy vibe to it I wouldn't put it past the production crew to add it in as a little nod to FiM.Anyhow, judge for yourself by checking out the screenshot after the break! You can find the scene in question around the 1:40 mark in the trailer.Thanks to TJ for sending it in to us! -
Nightly Discussion #641

I've said it before, but with so many characters getting redemption in the show lately I really wonder if we'll see Lightning Dust again. She may have been arrogant, but I don't think she deserved as harsh of treatment as she got.
Evening my friends! Ready for another night of chatting?

Oh Luna, if you just smiled more, Twilight wouldn't need to help you. Hello everyone! We had quite the interesting conversation this week regarding Twilight Sparkle. Both Sethisto and I were able to debate about Twilight getting wings (thanks M.A Larson) as well as how we feel Twilight has changed over the seasons. Catch the podcast with We Are Borg, Sethisto, Allyster Black and myself after the break!

Amaterasu, Hathor, Surya, Bast, Olwen. All goddesses of the Sun from cultures and religions all over the world. Names given not just to a cosmic ball of gas but also for its effects on a world of thinking creatures. Would Celestia’s name rank among them? What about Luna or Twilight? These alicorns, are they the most powerful of ponies? Are they avatars of the world or gods incarnate?
Join me, We Are Borg, after the break in Part 1 of The Goddesses of Equestria for a look into the theology of a polytheistic Equestria or the apotheosis of fandom made gods.

Way back in the early years of the fandom, someone released a complete reworking on Final Fantasy 6, replacing most of the character sprites with ponies and rewriting the dialogue for more equinish features. After it's release, loads of people played it but we never saw any expansion.
Someone has taken it upon themselves to revamp the project, with a rewrite, new characters, and way more sprite edits.
Head on down below the break for the details and trailer!
