    I don't know currently. I have not checked.

    I am pretty sure that date and time is mostly a fluke, honestly. Nothing of import happened then. Maybe a lot of spambots came at that time.

    This is not a bug. I think the way it displays it is the correct way when there are multiple options you can select.

    Yes, please don't ping me or other staff for silly things like this. Thanks.

    Hi all, As many of you already know, we are a community that has a propensity towards nitpickiness and pedantry. This behavior is to be expected when talking canonicity and mechanics and we generally encourage it in these types of conversations. However, one place it's not as welcome is when it comes to fan art. Comments about a piece of fan arts canonicity or accuracy are generally unhelpful, inconsiderate and unwelcome, as all fan art is an intepretation of the text. Pointing out where your interpretation and the artists interpretation differs is, at best, unneeded and, at worst, callous and dismissive. A regular complaint we hear from artists who have been turned off by the 17th Shard community is that we are overly critical in regards to lore complaints and unwelcoming to interpretation or more abstract artstyles. This obviously does not apply to artists who request critique, but due to the above, this is now our policy: Please keep in mind that fanart criticism is unwelcome when unsolicited. When commenting on a piece, please keep the artists feelings in mind as we would like to keep this welcoming space for all artists. Comments contrary to this policy will be deleted. We want the Fan Works area to be safe area for any artist.

    In this chapter of Rhythm of War, we see Kaladin be Kaladin, and we get a very interesting conversation with Kaladin and an old favorite. Producer Ghost Eric also joins near the end (no longer disembodied) to talk a bit too!

    If this is in later versions of IPS (we are more than slightly behind the times), it'll be there. We can't add it in ourselves. If the people who write the software don't put this in the newer version, then that's kind of that, unfortunately.

    As you might imagine, I love your username! Welcome! Glad you enjoy Shardcast
  9. Chaos
    I agree with you on how you worded it. I think your instinct is absolutely right.
  10. Chaos
    I'm going to be honest, I don't really have time to dig as deeply into this as you did. The software works as it does I guess.

    The Leaderboard goes off a specific timezone for its reset. The Popular Contributors does not, to my knowledge.

    It's from an older newsletter, as he sent out a few since. Usually older ones are linked in the newsletter, but I don't know. It was in there at the time.

    More information about "Shardcast: The Original Reactions"
    The Original, an audio-only story cowritten by Brandon Sanderson and Mary Robinette Kowal came out on September 14th. It's science fiction about clones and lots of other things! In this episode, we blab all about it, and yes, The Original is over three hours long and we talked just below two hours twenty minutes on this. Yeah that's a sizable fraction of the audiobook! Over 50% of it in fact, and you know what, we could have talked more about it. There's so much to delve into! We start with some spoiler-free thoughts if you hadn't read it yet, but then at 18:51 we go into spoilers. This episode we have Eric (Chaos), Ian (Weiry), Evgeni (Argent), Shannon (Grey), and Ben (Overlord Jebus). You can get The Original in a bunch of places: https://www.17thshard.com/news/brandon-news/the-original-is-out-r622/ Brandon's stream with Mary Robinette Kowal: https://youtu.be/A35A9DvJ0ME The sculpture we discuss, The Kiss: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Kiss_(Rodin_sculpture) Episode timestamps: 00:00 Introductions and Nonsense 3:00 Spoiler-free thoughts 18:51 Spoilery discussion 1:41:46 Spoilers for Legion, Perfect State, and Snapshot 1:46:01 Quick Stormlight spoiler 1:47:17 Talking about collabs and writing 2:01:22 What would our themes be + Conclusion If you like our content, support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/17thshard For discussion, theories, games, and news, come to https://www.17thshard.com Come talk with us and the community on the 17th Shard Discord: https://discordapp.com/invite/bMAUS5c Want to learn more about the cosmere and more?

    Hmmmm... that seems very strange. I'll try to investigate, but that is very bizarre.

    More information about "Rhythm of Previews: Chapter 14"
    These Rhythm of Previews episodes keep getting longer, but I think after Chapter 14, this is very justified. There is just so much to unpack on this one chapter! I suppose it's not particularly surprising these episodes are longer and longer. This book is just so full of things. Enjoy!

    Official really doesn't mean much of anything other than a link on his site anyway. Brandon knows how much time forums sap, so that's why he's not here basically ever.
  18. Chaos
    Would you like this in the Sanderson Fan Works board?
  19. Chaos
    Cool, I'll move it for you.

    Do you want this here or the Sanderson Fan Works board?

    This week on Rhythm of Previews, we're doing Chapter 13, and there's some spicy stuff here! In addition to Rhythm of War spoilers, there are spoilers for a few other things too. Lore! Information! Also, check out Marvin's increased production quality! So snazzy. Additionally, this chapter's annotation (which we will discuss next week, as usual), discussed some of the stuff we talked about here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Stormlight_Archive/comments/j1yqk5/row_rhythm_of_war_chapter_13/g75a4z3/?context=3 00:00 Introduction and Annotation 4:41 Epigraph 10:51 Chapter 13 You can find all of the preview chapters, and our discussions on 17S, here: https://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/91039-rhythm-of-war-sample-chapters-and-discussion-threads-index/ Here's our Rhythm of Previews playlist! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgGfrVwudwTHINabIn5UWmO-TnwXw7qr8 Want a recap of Stormlight Archive?

    I'd definitely say you can put it in the Gallery ( https://www.17thshard.com/forum/gallery/ ) or Sanderson Fan Works ( https://www.17thshard.com/forum/forum/13-sanderson-fan-works/ )

    Hah. I'm pretty sure the book is being printed; there'd be no chance of it not coming out this November. The book is turned in, after all. As Brandon's said, Tor's bottom line is appreciably affected by his books coming out now, so it's in the business's best interest it comes out. I'm glad you are all enjoying preview chapters. These are not my favorite things. Though the discussion is good, I much prefer to go through an entire book all at once. I personally think giving out all of part one is too much of a trickle-feed. It is cool to get so much of the book ahead of time, but this pace is real slow. When I read, I do not like stopping.
  24. Chaos
    I believe this topic has run its course, so I am closing it.

    No spoilers in topic titles, please.
