The challenge was supposed to be what happens when Pinkie Pie spends time with the CMC. This actually doesn't make any sense, but it was cute to me ^_^
This version is cleaned up extensively. As you can imagine, drawing 7 characters in 45 minutes left the original submission looking very messy.

I can even see the logic that drove them to do it. Too much crusading to do, too little time -
But hey! One of the clones is sure to get their cutie marks, so then they'll know what it is and then gonna do the same thing and get it themselves!
Foal-proof! Nothing about this plan could possibly go awry!
"Hiii, giiiirls! Wanna get your cutie-marks?"
"CUTIE MARKS! YAY!"
"CUTIE MARKS! CUTIE MARKS! CUTIE MARKS!"
"RAINBOW DASH?"
"Yes..... I have all your cutie-marks and Rainbow Dash riiiight here in the town hall....."
"RAINBOW DASH! CUTIE MARKS! RAINBOW DASH-CUTIE MARKS!"
"CUTIE MARKS! CUTIE MARKS! CUTIE MARKS!"
"CUTIE MARKS!"
"Just let me power up this spell to ... ... give you your cutie marks."
"Cutie marks?"
"Cutie marks?"
"Rainbow Dash?"
*ZAPP*
"..."
"..."
*ZAPP*
"...No cutie marks?"
*ZAPP*
"...There, problem solved!"

The episode would've ended quite differently, had it been "Too Many Cutie Mark Crusaders". 
Blasting three dozen clones of one of your best friends is one thing, but blasting what looks like a little filly? Err...

The entire "Mirror Pool incident" gave me bad vibes.
Here's a more realistic ending: [link]

I guess a much kinder ending would've been to have the mirror clones return or their own free will or something. It seems odd that there was even a risk that Twilight could potentially banish the real Pinkie to the pond. Doesn't that mean she technically knows a spell that could banish any pony there?

"Doesn't that mean she technically knows a spell that could banish any pony there?"
Eh. I'm guessing that "by using the mirror-pool, Pinkie became tainted with its magic" would suffice as an explanation.
I remember watching the episode for the first time, sitting at the edge of my seat, thinking to myself:
"Yeah, yeah, Pinkie Pie learned a valuable lesson about friendship, that's nice and all, but what the hay happened to all those other Pinkies?!"

I expected to see some 10 second clip showing us the Pinkies frolicking merrily in some kind of Mirror-World or something. Heck, they could've even been building their own "Pinkieville" there. It'd have been perfect for some cute comedy fanart too.
But... nothing?! That was just dark.

An episode that's all about Pinkie Pie to the Max is happy all throughout and then has the darkest ending of them all. Go figure.
