Michael Portz he/him Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 I can't bear it anymore. This is way too cruel ... lingering on the page ... constantly reloading ... constantly reading ... re-reading long read contributions ... dismissing silly theories lolling ... *SIGH* 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crisapx he/him Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 We're almost there, don't give up now! I'm just sad, that the release, will be in the same day when my new semester starts... Not that it matters, I still have to wait 1-2 weeks after that until my book arrives in the mail. *mumble*lucky USA bastards*mumble* ADOPT ME PLEASE, TAKE ME INTO YOUR HOME!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argent he/him Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 (edited) Meh. Getting your new releases at 9 AM on release day is overrated anyway. Messed up your entire sleep, study, and work schedule. I speak from experience. Edited February 20, 2014 by Argent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asha'man Logain Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 But.... but... what would I do until the release if I cannot constantly f5 the WoR page? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos he/him Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 I do highly recommend not going to the Words of Radiance board after release until you read it Also, allllll the nonexistent ad revenue from these hits! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who Sharded? Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 I wish this forum would shut down AFTER release. As a tax accountant, I can't think of a worse time for this book to come out. I'll hardly be able to read the book for a month and a half, yet I'll be at my computer, with this board just a click away... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Shash Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Hmm, someone should start a dedicated thread for those of us who will read the whole book in a day or two. Otherwise, new topics popping up will potentially spoil things for readers with less time to read. Imagine popping in to the forums the second day after release and seeing a topic titled, "Speculation: What Do You Think Jasnah Will Do With Shallan's Shardblade Now That Shallan Is Dead?"

WeiryWriter he/him Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Well it's just good form to keep spoilers out of thread titles right after a release. Ideally people should put *Finished Book* in the tittle of a thread that discusses that sort of thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18th Shard he/him Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 I get it the 6th because mine is a kindle book, but I can finish it in a few hours.

Chaos he/him Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 I will totally write anyone permission slips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shash Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 I will one-up Chaos on this one. Not only will I write permission slips, but I will legally adopt you to become your legal guardian thereby granting me the authority to do so. Tips for older fans: - Tell your boss you have just become the victim of Identify Theft and have scheduled an appointment with your banking institution on March 4th to get it straightened out. -Your "nephew" is coming home from a military deployment on March 4th, and it's imperative that you see him. -(This one is too little too late, but converting your boss to a Sanderfan probably would have worked.) -You are having marital problems and March 4th through 7th are the only days both you and your spouse could possibly attend counseling sessions. -When no one is looking, create a safety hazard at work (you'll know what type of hazard would be best foe your particular job) then publicly injure yourself on the safety hazard. -Fake a break in at your own home shortly after the midnight release. Hide a few valuables. File a police report, call in to work because you are 'shaken up', then collect insurance payments for your 'missing stuff' while you read WoR. -Download the eBook on your smartphone and just read as often as possible throughout the day. -Go to work and vomit in a very conspicuous location (there are several subtle ways to induce vomiting.) -Quit your job and open your own business. Need a good business idea? Have mine: "Make It Happen, LLC. 'No matter how inexperienced or unqualified we may be, no matter how legal or moral the job, we'll 'Make It Happen' for less than our competitors. Need a new roof? We'll 'Make It Happen. Need a dissertation written? We'll 'Make It Happen. Need a rival gang leader to disappear? We'll 'Make It Happen. And we'll 'Make It Happen for less.' " - For those long term, Big Picture kinds of guys - become Peter's assistant. -Spend a few hundred dollars on cosmetics and hire local aspiring actors to stage the outbreak of the Zombie Apocalypse at your work. -Fake your own kidnapping. If you're clever, have a coconspirator tie you up in an abandoned building, leave you there, then tip off the police and collect a reward...which the both of you will split, because your coconspirator will have called in to work to lead the search effort for his missing buddy.

Aminar Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 I would call in sick. But my Tuesday schedule is sparse but important. So I'll have plenty of time to read and can't miss the rest of the stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cortez he/him Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Ah the beauty of being self-employed. If I want to take a day off to read a fantasy novel I can . Got to wait two more days for it though in the UK, for some peculiar reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
