Chaos he/him Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Right. I got that. Wouldn't that be slower, though? EDIT: Will Adonalsium still be the top level? Hush, you And quite possibly. It will be one of the highest levels.
Elbereth she/her Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) Hush, you :PAnd quite possibly. It will be one of the highest levels. Great. Now to think... What could be even near Adonalsium in power? Immediate gut reaction: The Author/Brandon. Also possibly the Cosmere or Shadesmar. Actually, that makes me think of another question (sorry). Will you include title from short stories? Especially the smaller ones. Emperor's Soul is pretty reasonable, but will there be something from Shadows for Silence or the like?

Awesomeness Summoned he/him Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Great. Now to think... What could be even near Adonalsium in power? We don't have much info on him/her, but I'd imagine The God Beyond could be a candidate since it's theorized it could be the power that opposed Adonalsium. 1

Elbereth she/her Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) Great. That means I should probably read them. I was going to anyway, but I'm glad that you've given me a reason for getting them. So are there 80 negative ratings as well? And about how far would they go down? EDIT: Sorry for all the questions. I should stop and just wait for March. Sorry. EDIT 2: I thought of another thing. Will anything be included from that January story for the Waygate foundation? That might be good.

Chaos he/him Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 I didn't think that story was cosmere?
PeterAhlstrom he/him Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Indeed, I strongly approve of Peter having the #2 rep on the site. Bout time! I totally wasn't paying attention, then someone said I had become Adonalsium. Recently though, I have been repping people more often that I used to. This is, of course, because everyone is being particularly intelligent and articulate. 7

I always make a habit of upvoting well written things. I see no reason to be stingy in that regard.
Elbereth she/her Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) I didn't think that story was cosmere?I think you're right. It took me a while to figure that out. For a while I was thinking, So? Then I took another look and realized that all the ranks are Cosmere. Duh.Will you still have 'Shardbearer' and 'Full Shardbearer'? Will you divide that into 'Shardplate Bearer' and 'Shardblade Bearer'? I don't know which one would be more powerful, though. I totally wasn't paying attention, then someone said I had become Adonalsium. Recently though, I have been repping people more often that I used to. This is, of course, because everyone is being particularly intelligent and articulate. That was probably me.I can't say anything for 'more often', because I haven't been here long enough, but I generally find this to be one of the most intelligent places on the Internet.

FeatherWriter she/her Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Congrats, Peter! I find it amusing that I'm less than a hundred points behind the Lord Ruler himself now, after Eric has been so unreachable for so long. 2

Don't worry, if it perturbs you, I can always just arbitrarily give myself an extra thousand reputation 2
GreyPilgrim he/him Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 I didn't think that story was cosmere? Who said the reps had to be cosmere? Because I think Steelheart, Epic or Ruthmatist could make for cool reps. This is a Brandon Sanderson fan site, not just a cosmere one.

This is a Brandon Sanderson fan site, not just a cosmere one. True, but I imagine it is an attempt to stay in theme with the fact that the site is named the 17th shard.
FeatherWriter she/her Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 Don't worry, if it perturbs you, I can always just arbitrarily give myself an extra thousand reputation Dang. I've got to get ahold of one of those spikes. You admins keep all the good powers for yourselves. 4
Dysphoric Kitten she/her Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 (edited) Indeed! I always make a habit of upvoting well written things. I see no reason to be stingy in that regard.You should return to MBI, then. I am still stuck on one reputation point, with people passing me by within three posts! This week, someone joined and was upped to 6 before the day was out, and I am still on ash-ridden, mist-forgotten, storms-cursed one! Also, you did not respond to my idea, and I am curious to know what you think about it. The idea was a negative rank humorously named "Scalzi". Edited February 14, 2014 by Ookla the Tardy
Elbereth she/her Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Seriously. "w00t! Y0u'r3 1337!!!" is the last rank. Seriously. (Peter's there right now, if you want to see. Not for long!) 1
Claincy he/him Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Because people are bound to miss it I've screen-cap'd it. 2
Baine he/him Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Maybe we could all just force Peter to stay at 1337. I mean, no-one's more 1337 than Pete!
Chaos he/him Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 I'm shocked it took you so long to realize that 1337 was a joke rank like that XD
Elbereth she/her Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Well, everyone was theorizing Hoid, and that seems like just the place for him, so... It just never occurred to me. I'm glad Peter got there before you change the rankings, at least.
Claincy he/him Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 I'm shocked it took you so long to realize that 1337 was a joke rank like that XD I have to ask, will this rank be staying the same with the new system?

I'm glad Peter got there before you change the rankings, at least. Well, the idea with the rankings is that they are titles, not people. (Though I suppose you could say Hoid is technically a title, but still, none of us are Hoid) You won't see Vin, but you could see Heir of the Survivor or something. I have to ask, will this rank be staying the same with the new system? What do you think?
Claincy he/him Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 What do you think? Ah good. It is somewhat entertaining
Shardlet he/him Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) Alright, here is the final list (until Chaos shakes up the system, that is ): -100 and beyond = Zucchini -25 to -99 = Lamespren -20 to -24 = Rotting Chull Carcass -15 to -19 = Beheaded Inquisitor -10 to -14 = Hoed -5 to -9 = Lifeless -2 to -4 = Negaspren -1 to 4 = 17th Shard Trainee 5 to 9 = Awakener 10 to 15 = Misting 16 to 23 = Mistborn 24 to 31 = Elantrian 32 to 39 = Shardbearer 40 to 49 = Full Shardbearer 50 to 63 = Knight Radiant 64 to 74 = Worldhopper 75 to 99 = Sliver 100 to 127 = Splinter 128 to 255 = Shard 256 to 511 = Hero of Ages 512 to 1023 = The Broken One 1024 to 1336 = Adonalsium 1337 = w00t! Y0u'r3 1337!!! 1338 and beyond = Adonalsium I have to say that I would have thought 1337 would be something a bit...more profound. Edited February 27, 2014 by Shardlet 2
