Yeah since the text says there are "hundreds" of Aons the glossary is hardly an exhaustive list (there are actually several Aons mentioned in-book that do not appear in the glossary as well)

Sorry.

Actually I'm pretty sure Perfect State does take place on an alternate Earth? It does reference Earth history.

Eh, I'll live. And he did give us some information (i.e. Shardblade cuts are generally wider than a human hair. Which means they don't cleave things perfectly.)

Well Brandon uses it the exact same way as Jordan. When he said it it didn't necessarily mean it would show up in the text, or even be answered. It basically means "I'm not going to answer that question at this point in time because it may spoil something coming up or if I did answer the it it would make you focus on the wrong things or a variety of other reasons."

Okay for reference here is the original quote about God Surges: (source) But here is a follow up asked a few days later: (source)

No Sazed still has to contend with two polar opposite intents. That said there are indications that Sazed is doing "something" with the excess Ruin in order to remain balanced.

Do the links on the Shardhunt page not work for you? They all seem to work for me.

They all lose power away from their homeland, so does AonDor, it just isn't as strong, and unless you hack the system they all stop working off-world.

This is the second time that I've seen this pop up but I don't think the koloss re-use the skins? Like their "koloss skin" is just their normal human skin, it's just changed just like the rest of them? Human just ripped it off so he could get to the spikes more easily.

All edits are checked anyway so if you accidentally mess anything it will be fixed in a reasonable amount of time.

Roughly yes. Brandon describes the differences as the same as would be done during a major revision, rather than a complete re-write. One such differences is that Hoid will have a much expanded role (in the version he sends out he appears only in a reference to a past experience by one of the characters.).

Yeah there are no current plans for there to be a prose release of White Sand, the graphic novel will be the canon release. As for the version Brandon sends out, it's about the same level of quality as Elantris, maybe a little less, but it was good enough to get Brandon his agent. It's a descent story, just not up to the caliber of Brandon's current skill. There will be changes between the graphic novel and the version Brandon sends out.

If I remember correctly Chaos has been talking about a "totally awesome rewrite of Rashek/The Lord Ruler" that he's been meaning to write. So you'd have to duke it out with him

This is a worthy goal, but Brandon is already fully booked for 2016, and 2017 is filling up. Basically at this point Cons need to book him 2-3 years in advance.

You might find this thread interesting.

Actually Beta readers are mostly picked by Peter Ahlstrom, Brandon's assistant, not Brandon himself. And he does sometimes pick people from the forums and other other online places.

Actually he did write a whole novella length sequence, but it's not getting published: (source) Edit: Also here is a comment Brandon made about the possible novella a while back on reddit: (source)

You might actually want to email Brandon about this (source)

Well it has been over five years...

So the whole lifeform switch thing was a decision made by the admins during a very... lengthy conversation about categorization and stuff. Something that big really is up to the admins. You can always propose a change and we will discuss whether we think it is a good idea. (If you want to do a write-up on how to change the magic categorization stuff by next weekend we actually are planning on having a staff meeting) If you want an admin's attention on something you can always just put a note in the edit description. Or you can always PM me or one of the other admins (Chaos, Joe ST, Windrunner, KalynaAnne). Your Bonds page is something we need to discuss so just be aware of that.

So I guess I should actually write this post about why we have these rules (or something like that) that I've been meaning to write since you started this thread... Not putting info/navboxes (these are the {{thing}} that go at the top and bottom of pages) on User pages: Those things automagically categorize pages for us. That means whenever a page has {{character}} at the top the page is put into Category: Characters and when you put {{stormlight}} at the bottom of a page it goes in to Category: Stormlight. The issue with that is not only are the categories used for navigation but they are also used for the site statistics that show up in the Editor's Corner (which Chaos linked). Deleting the {{stub}} tag: So basically (almost) every article on the Coppermind has a tag based on it's completeness (stub/partial/complete). These are, again, important for statistical reasons. Once you become a more experienced editor changing the tags (i.e. upping stub to partial) is no big deal (it's easy enough to switch back if the admins disagree) just don't get rid of it entirely. The one thing that is strictly for the admins is the {{complete|reviewed=yes}} tag. As for other things you should know... I can't really think of anything, this will all be kind of a learning experience but if you do anything wrong we'll fix it and let you know.

You are correct, if you want to decode them yourself you might find this useful. If you'd rather just read the decoded versions here you go. (Thanks again go to Harakeke who cracked the script)

Constant. At least that's the name given to Allomantic bendalloy/Feruchemcial gold in the Alloy of Law supplement for the Mistborn Adventure Game. (Here's a chart I made of the 80 or so names they came up with for the supplement.)

Well these are limited editions, there are only going to be 500 of them? Also these are not the only physical edition, Brandon's current con-exclusive is a flipback hardcover of the two and that will be going on sale in his store in the fall. And they're probably far too short for an mmp edition.
