Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 We've all been there. You're so sure Ars Arcanum was written by Hoid, or that Dalinar is secretly a Herald. This thread is for those who want to confess their sins, and go forth without the burden of a secret you have never told anyone. I'll start. I thought that Dalinar would turn out to be Taln. Couldn't be more wrong. 1
Bugsy he/him Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 Mistborn original trilogy spoilers At the end of M:TFE, I called that Spook, Marsh, and Sazed were the only characters who would die... 2

This made me laugh so hard. The topic doesn't specify cosmere, so I'm going to put this. Mild Rithmatist spoilers Spoiler I spent most of the book convinced that Professor Fitch would be the Scribbler. Nalizar and Exton both seemed too obvious and I figured it had to be a Rithmatist, so… 1
Patar he/him Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 After The Final Empire, part of me was convinced that Spook was going to turn evil.
Eccentric Hero he/him Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) This is for 17th shard stuff too, no? I was just considering making a confession bear meme for the meme page here. It's about the fact that I usually barely skim what @maxal because she writes so much. I wish she had a tl;dr for what she says because I feel like I'm missing so much.

Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted August 31, 2016 Author Posted August 31, 2016 Anything Brandon-related is fine. On second thought, if you have something from real life, you're welcome to post that too.
Bugsy he/him Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 I thought Slowswift was Hoid for awhile Oh, I've also never been able to keep Zinc and Brass straight I also got so bored once I memorized how to spell Numuhukumakiaki'aialunamor. Not sure whether or not to be proud about that 1

Confession: I am not sure all the stuff I write is actually worth reading Especially when I go in rant mode: I half expect a team of Brandon's assistants to flood in and single me out: "How dare you critic so much? And you call yourself a fan?" Edited August 31, 2016 by maxal
Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted August 31, 2016 Author Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) @maxal you genuinely thought Slowswift was Hoid? Just remembered Slowswift is from HoA. I thought you meant the Sharder Slowswift, and I was kind of freaked. Edited August 31, 2016 by Assassin in Burgundy

And honest critique is necessary at times, or else it becomes one of those rabid, crowd-mentality fandoms that no one likes
Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted August 31, 2016 Author Posted August 31, 2016 Sorry, I thought you meant the Sharder.

I write a LOT and those posts can get very long... I am not surprised there are those who just skip to the end and read in between the lines. I also repeat myself, a LOT. It may be a tad annoying for some. And yeah, not everything I write is worth reading... This is absolutely true. Sometimes, I get carried away on an idea or an emotion...

Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted August 31, 2016 Author Posted August 31, 2016 Oh, sorry. But yeah, when I thought you thought that someone from the real world was Hoid, it somewhat left me questioning your sanity. Unless, of course, Earth is part of the Cosmere and Hoid Worldhopped here...

Not sure whether or not to be proud about that I didn't do that because I was bored; I read SA after joining the Shard and did it because I thought it would come in handy. Street cred level: airsick lowlander. Confession 2 (AKA The Great Heresy): For a little I thought Reckoners was cosmere... *cringes*

Not sure whether or not to be proud about that Yeah, I did that last part too, boredom can be a powerful thing. (obviously spoilers below) Other than that, I was like 100% certain that Demoux was going to turn evil when he started his Survivor cult-thing. I also spent most of SA convinced Dalinar was going to die heroically at some point and I was mourning in advance only to realise that the stubborn man lives through it all.
Dihatimus Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 Confession 1: I only started to read Mistborn because I heard he was going to finish Wheel of Time, and wanted to see if he was good enough to not screw it up. Confession 2: late in the evening after listening to WoR for about 4 hours straight, in the dark, on my couch, all alone, let's say 2 am, I actually fist pumped when a certain thing (in a very passable Sulu impersonation) greeted a certain someone near the end.
