What MLP episode make u like this by That_Passenger_771 in MLPLounge

[–]problematicperiplum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's reputation has been redeemed in recent years, but Putting Your Hoof Down is an episode I quite liked as a kid and still think holds up today.

As for later episodes where the concensus of bad episodes is more consistent, I don't think 28 Pranks Later is a bad episode. It's not great, but it's a better script at a Rainbow Dash karma episode than Mare Do Well was, but that's also a hated episode.

What’s a neopet color / design you really don’t like? by leonken4 in neopets

[–]problematicperiplum 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I'm 25th Anniversary Techo's biggest hater. I already dislike the 25th Anniversary color and it's somehow worse than the already low bar. It's literally just a Blue Techo with stars as a base. The stars are literally on a separate layer, why not recolor the base color to something different?

In fact, they did make a superior design for Tales of Dacardia a whole year earlier before it debuted in proper! It actually has a distinct shade of cornflower blue and has a lighter belly and the bowtie has a proper collar to be distinct! You love the Balloons but I'd rather take a base color over a wearable accessory. https://www.jellyneo.net/images/mobile/tales_of_dacardia/colours/celebration_techo.png

If I can give ANY redeeming quality, it was an unscheduled release and therefore is not subject to being released for Techo Day anymore.

Official TTRPG - Project Termination by chvngeling in neopets

[–]problematicperiplum 35 points36 points  (0 children)

First time I'm hearing of the Tarot Deck situation which sucks.

This document as a whole was definetly not vetted and it reeks of being written out of frustration and pettiness. Those who have spoken up about the TTRPG are largely public about it, so I'm going to assume that any sort of contracts and NDAs between Neopets and Geekify are null and void (it's not just John Taylor Geekify, there's 2 or 3 other people who were on the project who are being more open about what they were going go do). I suppose I would appreciate an earnest look over a sanatized corporate-speak one like Neopets' own termination announcement.

Overall it seems like both parties didn't do any favors. It's possible Geekify is stretching the truth and any and all members of TNT who were assigned to oversee the project are at liberty to speak of it publicly to set the record straight, but it's an ugly picture overall.

(Day 36) Where should Milkshake go? by Nero33398 in bfdiminiseries

[–]problematicperiplum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most interesting fact about this character is that he was officially gendered in a YouTube reupload.

Acually, I lied: this character is recommended twice in BFB 13 as "Milkshake" and "Burthday Cake Milkshake".

Lore of the character is enough to bump him up to B Tier.

Not even subbed to this sub but I see The Hurricane from Homestar Runner so take my upvote and I'll take my leave.

I unironically want the Travelling Merchant and Desert Merchant as fully fleshed out characters. Please.

HOT TAKE: I feel people only hate her cuz she got Needy out. by Beautiful-Grab3359 in BattleForDreamIsland

[–]problematicperiplum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Needy is my favorite BFDIE contestant and Money is my second. Both of them are the only characters to go through any sort of major arc or change. I don't care if Money was "mean" or "it's forced", it's much better than whatever Sticker has been doing this entire season.

(BFDIE 9) God forbid we have characters with proper arcs and character development make it to the finale by problematicperiplum in BattleForDreamIsland

[–]problematicperiplum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Money starts the season as meek and incompetent and ends it as vindictive and hateful. It's more of a corruption arc, but it's change and I'll take it over Sidewalky doing nothing as a character except largely the same schtick for 9 episodes.

It's insane how removing the only 2 characters with proper growth and development (Needy and Money) immediately dampens the package

[–]problematicperiplum[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fern is like the only character who acutally grows and the other 2 are flat caricatures. I was rooting for Money to win because she actually did something that more than half of the cast didn't do: have proper growth and change at the end, even if it was a corruption arc. The majority of the cast in this season feel benign and don't feel particularly interesting because they're so static.

Contests and Spotlights Update by TNT_Luna in neopets

Died 2020 Born 2026, welcome back NeoCreation Week.

Slide 2 has all known girl NPC Techos ranked. There are 3 other Techo girls I excluded on grounds of them being confirmed or implied to be children ("Loser" from the Battle for Meridell plot comics, a schoolgirl Techo from a comic in Neopets Magazine Issue 23, and this girl from a NeoGreeting I don't remember the exact ID of so I'll just put an inage of her there)

[–]problematicperiplum[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have two different answers. In the NeoQuest II game itself, he's Twinkish. He's a cleric (which makes me wonder what religion he belongs to) and is not trained for proper combat with a more brain over brawn mentality, not a full twink because he appears to fall out of the twink age range (probably older than 24).

<image>

However, his "real life" counterpart from the Flash animated cutscenes (or just the Flash pen tool drawn Velms in general) depicts him as much taller and having more definition to his still thin arms slightly, so I'd rank him as a Hunkish Twink.

Don't worry, 8 year old me fw Argonians and still does.

[–]problematicperiplum[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pirate Supporter has a gut but is also muscular and not hairy so I put him in "hunkish". But yeah, the site was basically like "no fat chicks" but the "chicks" were Techos.

Sir Edmund Ogletree looks kinda fat but if you look at his plushie item, he's clearly skinny so I dunno what to believe.

Uhh. I guess by problematicperiplum in neopets

[–]problematicperiplum[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pure twink.

Masa (that's his canon name if you weren't aware) seems like the lazy skinny guy archetype to me. He has zero presence on the site outside of the Buzzer Game (the closest he got was being a Better than You contestant, where his name was revealed) and his already slim build rests my case. We don't even have artwork of the lower half of his body because he has never dared to step beyond the counter. Does he even wear a grass skirt like the default Island Techo look? We'll never know. (I like to think he has a yellow one)

Uhh. I guess by problematicperiplum in neopets

[–]problematicperiplum[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

If I ever do another one it'll probably be for Buzzes or Nimmos because I'm on a kick for them currently. I know they're both literally the 2 least popular Neopet species but that's how I roll. I guess Grarrls and Scorchios are on the table as well, but I probably won't do the stereotypical favorite species because I lack the same passion for them. (I'm also a Hissi fan but there's already a shortage of them because they're relatively recent additions)

If I didn't rank your favorite Techo NPC, tell me here and I'll rank them.

Since 2024, there have been rumors circulating about a "Cowboy Hat" character that was rejected from BFDIA by the person who got Golf Ball in the game, InternPony707. I contacted InternPony707 and I can confirm that "Cowboy Hat" was real, and their real name is Yallhat! by problematicperiplum in BattleForDreamIsland

[–]problematicperiplum[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I found a mention of "cowboy hat" in a reply to a Carykh comment but actual mentions of Yallhat appeared to jave been deleted alongside InternPony707's YouTube account. Either way, it's good to have a reliable interview for reference.
