Surely I'm not the only junkie here?

This is a topic I created to see which orders are the most popular.

Who are tour favorite characters in SA? Mine are, in no particular order: Lopen - so cocky and self assured, always making jokes about himself and beating others to jokes about him. Seems to see himself as far greater and larger than he is. Wit - rude and funny, yet his comedy and insults tend to be missed by those he insults. The collective opinion of wit by everyone else is also hilarious. Syl - starts off having to learn how to be "normal" by human standards, much like the terminator in T2. When she learns about sarcasm, the whole game changes and she becomes hilarious in her own right. Rock - his carefree attitude and good sense of humor toward himself and his family (both bridge 4 and other horneaters) adds great comic relief to Kaladin's depressing attitudes. Who do you enjoy and why?

What is our all-time favorite scene across the Cosmere?

For the uninitiated, this is Argument Champion. It's a game in which you win arguments by connected good concepts with your side, and bad concepts with the other. And it is awesome. For those who have previously played it, or who played it just now after reading this, what do you think? Brilliant satire of modern politics, extremely fun game, or both? (Hint: Both.)

Okay this kinda needs clarification. What I mean by accomplishment isn't his best book, but what his written work has within. Examples would include: magic systems, politics, or how his complex plots work. As since I just started reading Brandon's books, I don't have such a knowledge of the Cosmere and all of that, so I'll just post what I like and leave the topic to you guys until I read some his others books. My choice for an accomplishment is how he turned the gameplay of Infinity Blade perfectly into a story format. Infinity Blade was just an IPhone game that was fancy, but was still all about the gameplay. Brandon expanded nearly every aspect of the gameplay into a story point. The reason for one on one battles: Aegis Forms code of Honor Reason Character has armor 'from' father: The God King wants the sacrifice to happen so he can get the power of the Infinity Blade active so he gives the body of the last warrior to the people. Reason for the God King being in such a destroy castle: Isn't really is home, just a trap for the sacrifice. He used every aspect of the gameplay and turned into a plot point, expanding on everything while including his own mythos. So yeah, Infinity Blade. Awesome sauce.
