  1. Crap. I accidentally downvoted your post on Baten Kaitos Origins.

    I'll, uh, upvote two other of your posts to make up for my dumbness.

  2. GMAT? I did the GRE. The GMAT looks to be for getting an MBA.

    I did all right on the GRE. 77th percentile in Verbal, 74th in Math (odd since I'm going into math, eh?), and I don't have scores yet on the Writing, nor what I got on the Math Subject test (shudder)

  3. Sorry for closing your topic down. PM me if you have any questions.

    I would also strongly recommend that you ask Brandon's assistant, Peter Ahlstrom, before distributing copies. You're welcome to do whatever, I suppose, but I was under the impression that when you get such a document, it is only you who has gotten permission. I'd ask Peter or Brandon before doing that.

  4. XD

    You know, posting me funny XKCD's doesn't get you a staff position.

    But I already wanted to promote you, along with another person. (I want to check with Josh first) So, you know, this still counts as me shanghaiing you, because I got the idea first ;)

  5. You are blowing my mind. Cut it out :P

    Actually, no, don't cut it out. I want to see more of these theories. I must know!

  6. You're hiding :P

    (Or you're at your granny's)

  7. Guys, fixing the Radiant icons on the main navigation is basically the best thing ever. I am so happy. Thanks @Kurkistan :D

      why ? what was the problem ?

      The Radiant icon link overflowed their boundary and so hitting links on the breadcrumb was difficult.

  8. I didn't exactly expect that today I'd say, "dollah dollah bill, yo." Maybe I am too tired...

  9. "Allomantic bronze" as a notation for "Allomantic bronze" still annoys the crap out of me. Metals are not capitalized!

      I think he would prefer Tapping Bronze/Storing Bronze. Or Allomantic Bronze/ Feruchemical Bronze.

      Also, I don't think it's a good idea to patronize the Lord Ruler.

    3. Steel

      Steel

      Hmm. Maybe aSn for Allomantic Tin and fSn for Feruchemical Tin?

      Don't know what we'd do for Bronze since it isn't a compound or an element. Maybe a88%Cu12%Sn for allomantic?

      "Also, I don't think it's a good idea to patronize the Lord Ruler."

      Can I just say that I want that in a forum signature? :D

  10. "It's ridiculous that you know these song names off the top of your head." "Oh yeah? What are all the Allomantic metals, Eric?" "...Shush you."

      Wait... There are people who DON'T know the allomantic metals off the top of their head? :o

      I know, it shocks me too.

      The Base metal-alloy relationship has come in handy in chemistry for me!

  11. "Mistborn Rule #2 - IF ARGUING WITH ERIC, HAVE PROOF, OR YOU'RE WRONG"

  12. "Mistborn Rule #3 - IF WE SAY YOUR PROOF IS WRONG, SHUT UP. WE KNOW MORE THAN YOU"

    1. Puck

      Puck

      really, we could just condense these into "the first rule of Mistborn is: you don't talk about Mistborn (unless you're Eric)"

  13. "Perfect State, Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell, Legion: Skin Deep, and Sixth of the Dusk have all had very good receptions over the last year," Brandon says. Okay... I would consider Sixth of the Dusk the worst of Brandon's publications... The others are great though!

  14. "THIS WIKI SUCKS IT LACKS SO MUCH CHARACTER INFORMATION." Great, you add it and see how easy it is when there are over a thousand character articles. >.>

  15. *Finally* done with stuff due tomorrow; now can finally do some 17S stuff I owe.

  16. A long theory which discusses what a "focus" is, an important concept in the cosmere. Then I discuss what Surgebinding's focus must be: http://bit.ly/oP5tLX

  17. All right man. How long will you be out? I strongly recommend you post in I Would Like to Announce to let people know you're gone.

  18. And here I was expecting to go to bed early today...

  19. And I really need to make a topic about the unpublished works policy. If anything its my fault, since you had no way of knowing that beforehand. Sorry about that.

  20. But really, it was the general awesomeness.

  21. Can using the letter f to denote a metal's Feruchemical ability stop? Feruchemical iron and Feruchemical steel looks awful. This convention needs to stop.

      The only shortened alternative I can think of would be saying "AlloSteel" and "FeruSteel". Would that be suitable?

    3. Kurkistan

      Kurkistan

      Oops. That may be mostly my fault, if I recall correctly... :\

      I agree that Feruchemical iron looks funky, but most of the others look fine to me, for what it's worth.

    4. lwd24era

      lwd24era

      I agree. While it may look weird, it makes conversations about different metals easier. Until someone comes up with an as good but different method, I'm using this one.

  22. Cite has been updated! :D

  23. Clearly, we need a better cosmere definition for what a "focus" is.

  24. Control Inquisitors, like a boss.
