Would it be, perhaps, an app someone suggested?
+Extesian he/him Posted October 25, 2017 Posted October 25, 2017 After listening to these Brandonerisms again and again, I can reveal the Brandon template. Questioner Question Brandon Sanderson Repeat question. Guffaw. "So... that's a good question". Start partially answering (with keywords blocked by baby crying). Reveal big secret and end it with "...and stuff like that. Right. You guys knew that right?". So now you all know how to be Brandon. Remember, "and stuff like that" and "right?". All you'll ever need. 10
Oversleep Posted October 25, 2017 Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) @Extesian it's "things like that" or "things like this" you pleb! (although I admit Brandon also uses "stuff like that" but the other two are much more common) Edited October 25, 2017 by Overstorm

Don't make me go back over my entries and tally things vs stuff oversleep. I don't know which epoch you've been transcribing but I get a 3:1 stuff: things ratio. Mestiv, give us the "things like that" and "stuff like that" stats

Mestiv, give us the "things like that" and "stuff like that" stats I actually put these expressions in the search engine to check, y'know... Although I admit my samples were only the first 50 results. I might need to go and redo the search. Edited October 25, 2017 by Overstorm

I redid the search for exact expression and counted every instance of that exact expression. Here are the numbers as of October 25th 2017 23:53 Warsaw timezone: stuff like that = 53 instances found stuff like this = 13 instances found things like that = 214 instances found things like this = 112 instances found @Extesian things win over stuff, hard 3

Nov 8 will be even more wonderful long live Arcanum! And I am surprised noone guessed the name (including me before I started), except for one person I noticed. Iirc. Oh here.

The Invested Beard Posted October 25, 2017 Posted October 25, 2017 I've always like things more than stuff. Now I know why.

Also, this helps the theory that you two are the same person, since you're both working on Arcanum...

Thanks for all the hard work. I keep hearing great things about the system, and can't wait to try it out, but I also want to congratulate those that worked on the visual design. That logo is beautiful, and I'm sure the whole site is just as pretty! Will there be a good way to find the new, never-before-seen items for those who feel up to date on what is currently available?

There will not, unfortunately. You may need to go down the even list, open each one up, and scan real quick to see if it looks familiar. You could compare the Theoryland event list to Arcanum's, but the former has some events with 0 entries, so you'll still be missing stuff. The vast majority of new WoBs are from Reddit (which you'll basically be up-to-date on if you saw my spreadsheet), and the events that occurred this year (which have all had transcriptions already posted in the Events and Signings forum). Weiry might be able to provide a list of old events that are only in Arcanum, but the only ones I know off the top of my head are AU Seattle and a White Sand release event.
Mestiv he/him Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 I think that @WeiryWriter was going to prepare a list of the brand new things, that weren't seen before. So there is hope @ccstat 2
