For some reason, Discord looks like The Hub just picked up some random fanart and put it in that picture but whatever...
So, remember how last year, we would vote who was the naughtiest and who was the nicest? And how Discord and Pinkie won by a land-slide? Well this year they're doing things a little differently, because now there are difference categories for "naughty" and "nice". The categories are as follows:
Naughty Categories
The Hub's Naughtiest of All:
- Alakshmi ("Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters")
- The Biskit Twins ("Littlest Pet Shop")
- Dan ("Dan Vs.")
Most Villainous Laugh:
- Dr. Mangle ("R.L. Stine's The Haunting Hour: The Series" episode entitled
"Creature Feature - Part 2") - Megatron ("Transformers Prime")
- Razorkinder Puppet ("Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters")
Nastiest Hissy Fit:
- Fluttershy ("My Little Pony Friendship is Magic" episode entitled
"Putting Your Hoof Down") - Penny Ling ("Littlest Pet Shop" episode entitled
"Mean Isn't Your Color") - Starscream ("Transformers Prime" episode entitled
"Orion Pax - Part 2")
Naughtiest Use of a Villainous Power:
- Dr. Morocco ("Transformers Rescue Bots" episode entitled
"It's a Boy Time") - Megaria ("Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters" episode entitled
"Heart of Darkness - Part 1") - Queen Chrysalis ("My Little Pony Friendship is Magic" episode entitled
"A Canterlot Wedding - Part 2")
NICE CATEGORIES:
The Hub's Nicest of All:
- Blades ("Transformers Rescue Bots")
- Blythe Baxter ("Littlest Pet Shop")
- Jimmy The Robot ("The Aquabats! Super Show!")
Best Hub Jam:
- "BFF's" ("Littlest Pet Shop")
- "Burger Rain" ("The Aquabats! Super Show!")
- "Flim Flam Cider Song" ("My Little Pony Friendship is Magic")
Awesomest Good Deed:
- Chris ("Dan Vs." episode entitled "Dan Vs. Chris")
- Grumpy Bear and The Care Bears ("Care Bears" episode entitled "Sad About You")
- Optimus Prime and The Autobots ("Transformers Prime" episode entitled "Darkest Hour")
Nicest Use of a Heroic Power:
- Grampire ("R.L. Stine's The Haunting Hour: The Series" episode entitled "Grampires - Part 2")
- MC Bat Commander and The Aquabats! ("The Aquabats! Super Show!" episode entitled "Showtime")
- Strudel ("Pound Puppies" episode entitled "Good Dog, McLeish")
Hm... I think The Hub realized that My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is a juggernaut, and thus doesn't want it completely dominating the whole contest. As for my thoughts on MLP...
I don't know, some of the choices and categories where they show up are weird... Like the Flim Flam brothers song... I like it, it's a pretty catchy earworm, but it's not exactly the best "jam" the series has to offer... Or IS IT?! Also, I don't like how Fluttershy was nominated in a "naughty" category. Yeah, thanks for reminding us how much of a jerk she was in that episode... and she only became that way because everypony else was a jerk.
Eh, whatever, Queen Chrysalis's nomination, I'd say, is well-deserved. Also, it seems that The Hub and Hasbro have fully acknowledged that as her name, even though it was never mentioned in the show itself.

If this list reminded me of anything, it's how I should get back to finishing watching Transformers Prime. Either way, nice new direction, IMO.
