  1. Eh, this one's newer. I'll lock the old one. I'll add one to the ring: I thought Mad Max: Fury Road was exceptionally boring. I know it's well done for what it is, but I really didn't like what it is.
  2. Well, I'm more wondering what makes you ask for an app? What's the use case?
  3. I will link you to an extensive comment of mine on this matter: The long and short of it is that it's a lot of development effort (especially to keep up with new mobile versions) that we don't have time for. If there was an app, then that would delay IPS software updates even more for testing to make sure nothing breaks. This is to say nothing about the amount of time that would be spent on the app itself, which would be extensive. (We already have a software project, the new WoB Archive, and this takes a lot of time.) Additionally, I'm still confused as to what the real gains are by having an app and spending that time doing that. The mobile site is very, very good and I use it for most things, including the backend to do administration. Perhaps you can explain to me a use for an app that cannot be served with the mobile site? The only real thing is mobile push notifications, which you could just as easily get with email notifications. An app would just be a slightly crappier wrapper for the forum and would interact the same. I don't understand why that's preferable to opening the mobile site.
  4. Another week, another set of updates! Of course the big one is more Oathbringer: Chapters 22-24. Discuss them in our forum topic. Or, if you missed last week, check out our Oathbringer chapter index. Next up we got two Dragonsteel chapters (which clearly are coming out Monday and Wednesday): Bridge Four Chapter 5 and Bridge Four Chapter 6. This one is pretty cool too, because we get to see a creature we've never seen in the cosmere before. Also, there's a ton of [REDACTED], so that's fun.
  5. What are you looking for?
  6. IPS's design is pretty complicated, and honestly, I am extremely picky regarding how things look. A dark theme requires totally different art assets to look correct.
  7. Quotes do behave like they do in Google. I think some boolean things work but I don't have a guide for you.
  8. Holy crap this is amazing. I'm tweeting this.
  9. That is because you are uncultured plebians who do not know The Way(tm).
  10. I'm a man and I literally have no idea what you're even trying to refer to.
  11. Promote this man.
  12. This has been an hour long debate. And by debate, I mean people making fun of me
  13. Maybe you're just not practiced
  14. I've never accidentally touched the wall with under. That's a nonissue!
  15. I can't believe this is so one sided!
  16. It's also about opening tabs in Chrome. Very important.
  17. Under is the True Way. Join The Way. Open Tabs. Toilet paper under. The Way!
  18. There is not, sorry. Though one could be created, at this time it's hard enough to manage one skin with site updates. Obviously having multiple skins means it doubles the amount of work to check things still work upon site updates. (There are other issues with dark themes as well, as members can select font colors and stuff.) We are currently very busy constructing a new WoB Archive and that's sapped much of our time. You probably won't see a dark theme on the main site for a long time.

    Colors

    So on mobile there is very limited space on the editor toolbar. I have intentionally made the choice that it is better for the vast majority of mobile circumstances that users would rather not have a second toolbar there constantly on mobile. (I know I personally would hate it.) Generally I think changing colors is not a standard experience on mobile. Additionally, I do want to discourage use of changing colors, especially for regular discussion. I realize you're probably changing text color for the elimination games? I could change this, but I'm not sure if I want to? EDIT: You could simply type color in BBCode. [color=blue]text here[/color]
  20. This is not a general Brandon Discussion forum. 17th Shard Discussion is for discussion about the site itself. I have moved this topic to Cosmere Q&A.
  21. No Oathbringer content outside of its spoiler board at all.
  22. Awww yeah! Well now I have to teach Calc 1 next fall
  23. We're a bit late here, but there's some new Oathbringer chapters, this time chapters 19-21! Great! Go discuss them in our Oathbringer Spoiler Board. You can also now get a signed and numbered edition of Oathbringer from Weller's Book Works, as usual. If you'd like an inscription or a special inscription (like, asking a cosmere question), it will cost more, but the proceeds are going to charity. Brandon's Lightweaver Foundation will match those donations. Lastly, we have a new chapter from Dragonsteel Prime: Bridge Four Chapter 4. Check it out! As always, for Oathbringer, only post content from Oathbringer in the Oathbringer Spoiler Board. Thanks!
