Ask a stick and they'll tell you.

For all new members, remember these immortal words of Brandon whenever you encounter naysayers:

I continue to be in awe at the staying power of this thread... Truly, we are all a stick.

Can someone provide a link to the Reddit page? I'm not good at navigating Reddit.

10/10 would torture myself again like this.

Hey guys! I'm excited to announce that a while ago I was asked to help create stories in a Sci-Fi universe one of my good friends created. While I only have one very short story in this volume, I've got a novella length piece that will be published in volume two along with another small character piece he asked me to do. So what is '10,000 Dawns?' Set in our solar system in the far future, the original novel written by James Wylder is about a universe that has been subjegated under the oppressive rule of crony capitalism taken to its most pernicious extreme. The Centro Corporation is both the only business in existence, as well as the government, inside and out. It is ruled by a shadowy cabal known only as the Board of Directors. '10,000 Dawns' explores this universe late in its history as one of those directors invents a technology that can breach into other universes, and needless to say, hijinks ensue. While I haven't checked the ranking lately, during an aggressive marketing campaign James was able to push the novel that started this universe, '10,000 Dawns' to the number one spot in time travel books. You can also read it for free online at his website, or get it as part of a bundle with this Kickstarter. Poor Man's Illiad, the anthology being kick-started now, explores the history of the universe leading up to the revolution against Centro Systems by the colonies that have settled on Mars. This unique history is what drew me to the universe in the first place, and I was happy to explore it with this team of talented local writers. With the interwoven tapestry of voices writing these events, each with their own take, any Sci-Fi enthusiast is sure to find at least one story they enjoy in this huge anthology, which had to be split into two volumes due to the sheer amount of material submitted. If you have any interest, I highly encourage you guys to go check out his Kickstarter page for more information to see if this is right for you. There's more information available about the project there, and if you have any questions feel free to ask me on here if you don't want to go through Kickstarter, and I'll be happy to get in touch with James if I don't have the answer. Without any further pomp or circumstance, here's the link to the Kickstarter. Come check us out!

I find this very convincing.

In the context of this scene, the Lopen is helping to guard Elhokar, who is both injured and very hung over, and has been for the duration of Kaladin's absence. This was his protecting someone who couldn't protect themselves, and, in my opinion, lends weight to the idea that he was exploring an early spren bond instead of just being a squire.

Sell Ishikk taught the southern Scadrians how to ice fish.

I honestly hope they go back to the original artist. I really liked how gritty everything looked and the obvious attention to detail that was put in; it definitely fit with the sand planet theme. I have to wonder if this is why the release date was pushed back, and if so, I'm not holding my breath the original artist will be back for the third volume.

Buy Renarin will make a career out of outsnarking the worst of the side notes that weren't written in good faith.

The profanity filter came as a huge shock to me, and made me legitimately blush as I was one of those people who rusting loves to use Sanderson themed words.

Thanks, I'll go back and re-read that section.

Given that the Second Generation was arguably the largest among the group of Kandra that didn't remove their spikes and the the group attempting to remove the Atium were only subdued and not killed, did the Second Generation survive the Catacendre? Would they have been punished by TenSoon in the reforming of Kandra society, possibly by the same cells they used to use, or would there be some sort of pardon? I didn't see anything definitive in the WoB or the annotations, and at this point am just looking for general opinions of everyone as to how things might have played out unless you have more concrete information.

Buy/Sell, there will be a gemstone recording of his voice in Shadesmar which will serve as the wake up call/alarm clock for the guests. The sleepless are named that because of sleep apnea and the difficulty in creating that many CPAP masks for all the individual cremlings.

I decided a long time ago that if I went with a pen name, it would be Bernard Rice. Why Bernard Rice? When I was in middle school, we had a mini mall project where we had to come up with a product to sell and a business plan and such, then execute it on a day when we would all set up inside the cafeteria and the rest of the school go through all of our booths and browse our wares. I was selling snow cones and mini notepads with our school mascot on them. The snow cones we're popular enough that the reporter for the local paper doing a story on the project decided that my booth was the one he wanted to take a picture of, so he got a couple shots and wrote down my name. A few days later, there was my picture in the paper, but not my name. Instead of Trevor, I was Bernard Rice. It was strange and funny enough that I decided it would eventually be my pen name should I decide to use one, given just how far off he was from my real name.

So for several months I'm sure a lot of you have noticed in my signature the "Lost Legends of Scadrial Mistborn Adventure Game Podcast coming soon" but haven't seen or heard anything else from me about it. I've been hesitant to post anything more because it's been moving a lot more slowly than I would have liked due to revolving schedules and rusting ton of tension come up in my work life. I wanted to rectify that now by giving everyone a chance to listen to the intro music that we've come up with for the podcast, along with a small blurb about the general setting and my hopes for the podcast, and where we are in the process right now. I decided that I wanted to choose a time that would be completely open in narrative terms for exploration, so the podcast is set twenty years after the catacendre. We've recorded two episodes worth of material already and I've gotten the first episode edited and I'm pretty pleased with the resulting product. We are planning on another recording session this Saturday where we will hopefully get another two episodes worth of material. The episodes are going to be about an hour long. We have a core cast of four characters with myself as the narrator and I plan to have guest appearances when appropriate for the story. I'm hoping to stick to a release schedule of one episode every two weeks, so I don't plan on starting to release them until I have six fully edited episodes to give myself lots of room for everyone's schedules and unexpected events interfering with our ability to record. The last thing I want is to commit to a release schedule and then let people down who might enjoy our work. With all that being said, here's the first sneak peak at what we've been doing. This intro music is 100% original created by members of the podcast. I hope you guys enjoy, and I can't wait to get to the point where I have more to share with everyone. Any thoughts or criticisms are welcome! Legends Lost™.mp3
