TwiLyghtSansSparkles Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 I would hazard a guess that Brandon probably won't be answering any more questions. It has been two days since he last answered one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kobold King Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 I'll help you. I appreciate all the help I can get. Though Brandon Sanderson answered a WoT question asked of him today, so with any luck we might get some of our more important Reckonerverse questions answered yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titan Arum Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 I'm so sad. I really need to pay better attention to the forum I missed the ama. Well I guess there is always next time to ask about how many edges Nightblood has. My guess is that Nightblood only has one edge. We know from Warbreaker that the sword has a hooked cross guard and every image of every sword with a hooked cross guard that I've ever seen...has one edge. The hooked side of the guard is always on the sharp edge side. Granted, this doesn't mean Nightblood isn't a double edged sword. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hooked side of the guard is always on the sharp edge side. Granted, this doesn't mean Nightblood isn't a double edged sword. Ya my only problem is a bayonet is not truly a sword. What I see when I google hooked cross guard is bayonets. I'm not really in a hurry to find out so I will have more chances to find out. Mr. Sanderson is surprisingly spars on details of what that sword looks like. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwiLyghtSansSparkles Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 I think I'm going to say it looks like the AMA is officially over. The last time I said that, he answered a slew of questions over the next couple days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I said that, he answered a slew of questions over the next couple days. Would you mind saying "It's 100% certain that he won't answer any of King_of_the_Kobolds' questions"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of King_of_the_Kobolds' questions will be answered. Brandon Sanderson will ignore these questions and will certainly not write a detailed response to them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blaze1616 Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 I'm not sure if this is a new thing you came up with for the specific question in this AMA, or if you've been using it, but I highly approve of the tag "Brandalization" for when Brandon talks about signing his books in stores/airports. I'm having a fit of chuckles over here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masaru Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 @Weiry I have no idea what "the Jasnah novella" is in reference to. What did I miss?? 8. What are your current plans with regards to the Jasnah novella you wrote last summer? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeiryWriter Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 @Weiry I have no idea what "the Jasnah novella" is in reference to. What did I miss? I'm refering to the "Jasnah in Shadesmar" sequence he wrote during his trip to the UK last year (there's an excerpt from it on Tor.com). Based on comments from Ben and Peter and co. on Reddit it is novella-length. The question is whether it will be included in Stormlight 3 or published separately or remain hidden for all of time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masaru Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 I remember the excerpt. I had no idea there are hints it's novella length. Perhaps that Cosmere novella collection Brandon mentioned might be where it shows up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobold King Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 He's now posted on two Reddit threads entirely unrelated to the AMA... I don't like sounding like the obsessed stalker that I am, but is this a sign that the AMA has unofficially concluded? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 He does post on Reddit every now and then, it's not just AMAs for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobold King Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 He does post on Reddit every now and then, it's not just AMAs for him. Okay, cool. Also, he just answered a couple more questions--apparently zeppelins on AoL-era Scadrial aren't altogether impossible, which is an idea that pleases me in more ways than I could describe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kobold King Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 You can't forget this gem--"On whether any of his novels are set in the same universe." I'd be tempted to remind everyone that Google is your friend, but unfortunately the people who ask these most basic of questions aren't involved enough in the fandom to read this post. I try not to let people asking questions as basic as this annoy me, but my eye always twitches at the lost opportunity. You could have asked anything, and you unwittingly asked the equivalent of "George R. R. Martin, would you ever kill off a main character?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And from how Brandon worded that this person probably doesn't know that Reckoners and other earth-set series are the exception here to boot.

Blaze1616 Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 I'm more upset he's responding to people posting to the AMA yesterday, rather than putting his time towards answering questions asked by people who follow the rules. I understand not responding to posts like mine that have multi-questions, but there were some single question posts he still hasn't answered, last time I checked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
