Thanks for taking my ramblings and making something sensible out of them.

Got two back to back days off I'm going to be paying for it though. The next two days will be back to back double shifts.

Awesome CAH player

Due to no one showing up, rescheduling 30 minutes from now. http://pyx-2.pretendyoure.xyz/zy/game.jsp#game=101 Password is 17Shard

It's been established that Hoid strongly dislikes Kelsier. Does Kelsier remind him of Rayse? Had Kelsier been present at the Shattering, would he be more likely to have chosen Ambition, or Odium?

Yeah, like favorite ice cream for example

Or zoom out 10%

Is there anything on Therondy more invested than a shade?

According to one of my other theories, people can accidentally draw the investiture of Ambition by violating the simple rules. It could be that those who committed large violations or other acts of ambition could end up releasing more investiture when turned.

Disclaimer: This is not a proper theory in the slightest. It is very underdeveloped, and is not backed up by any quotes or WoBs. I am merely trying to get my thoughts out there, so that someone else can make a proper theory out of it. It is my belief that the Simple Rules exist because the Shades of Therondy are attempting to prevent people from accidentally tapping into the latent investiture of the shard Ambition, or trying to prevent large concentrations of investiture gathering in one spot. To review, the simple rules are: Don't kindle flame, don't shed the blood of another, don't run at night. Flame is the essence of change. By lighting a fire, you could be seen as making a statement that things aren't fine the way they are, and must be changed. Change is also a fundamental part of Ambition, as attempting a change is saying that your vision of the world is superior to what already exists. Running at night invokes the idea that your destination is the most important and that you have little regard for the way things currently are. When you run, all the disruptions you make from movement are greater. You disturb more earth, your footsteps are louder, and you move with less caution. These are all statements of ambition. Spilling blood should be pretty obvious. When you spill the blood of another, you are making the statement that your life is more valuable than the one of the person you're killing. That is indeed a very ambitious statement. In conclusion, the Simple Rules exist to prevent statements of ambition, and it is my belief that they exist to prevent people from tapping into the investiture of the shard. What do you people think? Any assistance is supporting or debunking this would be appreciated.

In Arcanum Unbounded, Khriss stated that the perpendicularities on Therondy are unstable, impossible to predict, and morbid in origin. I am predicting that they form at the moment a person becomes a Shade. That is when the realmatic aspects of the soul would start to separate, but are forced together by latent investiture of the shard Ambition. I believe this is also the instance when the largest concentration of investiture would be present in one place. What do you people think? Any assistance is supporting or debunking this would be appreciated.

You started a CIVILIZED discussion on atheism. That's awesome.

If people still want you by the end of the next week, I'll send you a pm. Now, I've got an OP to update.

And another called Arcanum Unbounded. And another called The Name of the Wind.

It should still be happening @Pagerunner I've merely lost the time. A book was involved.

No, the was just a simple SR-latch. JK Flip Flops have a clock signal to enable.

I love this comic https://xkcd.com/730/

I think f(x) = 1^x might be a good candidate.
