Naurock Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 How many times have you gone to make a theory but when compiling WoBs you actually kill your own theory? I'm going guess I've had three theories of mine killed this way. I've gotta admit the one I killed this morning was gonna be a fun one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quantus he/him Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) More of mine die that way than survive the research and see the light of day. Worst was when I spent a long time on reddit trying to map each of the Shardic Intents to binary numbers correlating to positions on the Allomantic chart, only to be shown a WOB that confirmed that not all shards have specific numbers, and some numbers are system-relevant rather than shard-relevant. The chart part still works pretty well, but that one WOB entirely killed off all the math-theory I was chasing.

Unlicensed Hemalurgist he/him Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) I essentially live in a constant state of having theories proposed and shot down. That's part of the fun. To paraphrase Thomas Edison: "I have not failed in understanding the Cosmere. I have simply discovered ten thousand ways not to understand the Cosmere."

Leyrann Posted August 16, 2018 Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 I had a theory that should have failed because of it but I was too confident that, if Brandon were asked the question, he'd have RAFO'd it. Still sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
