  1. The God Beyond (which we do not know the gender of btw) is referenced in The Emperor's Soul (as the Unknown God by Shai), Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell (by Silence), The Alloy of Law (by Wayne I believe), and Words of Radiance (by Hoid).
  2. There already is one, Theoryland. A link to which can be found by hovering over the Links tab above.
  3. We don't have any WoB on the exact length of the Scadrian year, though since it is an Earth-analogue it is most-likely the same as ours. Rosharan years are only 1.1 times the length of ours. Which would work out to 4,500 Rosharan years being 4,950 Earth years. That's a lot less (relatively) than 6,000.
  4. We didn't have a Thug. We had 2 Smokers (myself and Claincy), a Lurcher (Senn), a Rioter (Unodus), and a Mistborn (Mek).
  5. I think you mean Devotion (Endowment is Nalthis after all). As for the voice in the Pool, I've always been of the opinion that it was less "some entity trying to tell Raoden something" and more "Raoden's brain is interpreting a feeling given off by the Pool into words he can understand".
  6. I agree with what you are saying here, but where is the six thousand years figure coming from?
  7. The clues are there, it's possible to figure it out just from Way of Kings.
  8. Josh mentions that they have plans in post 7 of this thread. I hope I will be able to help them out in some way (though I don't know exactly how I could help) but I do think Utah would be the best place for it (no matter how much easier it would be for me if it happened in southern New England...) because that is where Brandon is. But I do get your point, if people are putting the work in they shouldn't get any say.
  9. I'm betting that it going to be Utah, since that's were Josh and Mi'ch live and they already have plans in the works (so they'd most likely be heading any ShardCons that happen, at least ones that are hosted by this site).
  10. near the bottom of this post.
  11. Nazh uses "shadows" as a swear on the Shattered Plains map, the only world (that we have seen) use it as such is Threnody. Nazh also annotated the updated map for the teen editions of the Mistborn trilogy.
  12. I will be working on a transcription probably today and tomorrow (gotta have something to do in the blizzard...).
  13. That was my original thought, but it can't be because Kaladin knows three people who have the ability (Shallan, Hoid, and Renarin).
  14. I think he is a reasonable possibility, yes. But if I remember things correctly the revelation that Kaladin has known two Lightweavers was one of the main reasons the "Tien was a proto-Lightweaver" theory was started.
  15. Only partially, or at least it is not a new point, we had already heard that Kaladin has known two Lightweavers.
  16. And in between reading Oudeis' post and going back to check y'all hit it. (it was at 39,996 for a bit...) Edit: and now it dropped back under... Why?
  17. fletchershair's report has been added to the database.
  18. Huh, that really doesn't make any sense to me based on my understanding of metallurgy, when you alloy something it's a different metal (I can't really explain my issue with this well...). I don't see why Brandon changed his mind on this.
  19. Actually deus ex magicka would be closer to "God in the magic", since it is the machina in deus ex machina that means machine, deus means god.
  20. and you were able to download the stuff?
  21. Unfortunately the codes are single use only. Other people can enter them but they can't download/see the goodies.
  22. Post #31 of this thread...
  23. OoOoOoh! You are all going to die (except for my be-Spiked Bretheren). Doomed are ye who dare to defy Lord Ruin!
  24. Single Transferable Vote could help prevent that though. Unless Malatium got at least 50% of the first-choice votes then it wouldn't automatically win. And in this method individuals wouldn't be splitting their own votes. Let's say there are two exclusive dice, people vote by ranking their choices and this is what the percentages end up looking like: Edit: put all that math in spoiler tags. @Oudeis, if you look in the description of that video there is a link to a sample election which covers what happens if not everybody's second choice is the same, basically one way to do it, which I do above is split those votes proportionately. Edit 2: This is also another relevant video, (that I forgot about so didn't address in the above math because that made it simpler)
