I did, and it was okay. Pinkie Pie episodes don't usually do it for me (I don't dislike the character, she just interests me less than the others), but the sight of a horde of berserk Pinkies happily rampaging through Ponyville was very comical.
It was probably also a good idea for Twilight to close off that entrance to the magic pool. Else they would have ended up with Rarity cloning herself. "What? I'm the best model for my creations that I know of!"
Rarity; no, just no. We don't want a hundred whining unicorns.
The magic pool on the other hand brings up a lot of opportunities for exploitation: For one thing, being a pool that could create duplicates, it appears to be a magical phenomena that could convert arcane energy directly into matter in order to clone live ponies, activated by a spell.
Just think of the possibilities! Get some of those water, find out how it works, magically reprogram it to work on other life-forms or inanimate objects, and voila! You could clone skilled workers for industry without needing to train them, you could rapidly produce clone reinforcements for the Royal Guards, and magical Star Trek-esque Replicators!
And contrary to popular belief, it seems having more than one Pinkie Pies doesn't actually spell the end of Equestria as they know it
The "Paint drying observation ID test" to identify the real Pinkie Pie was the best part of the episode. And the part where the Apple family herd them to the town hall.
...On second thought, that was an awful thing to say and I should feel bad.
Maybe CMC should use a paintball sniper rifle instead.
