I once had identical troubles. Turns out, you can hide posts. I don't remember how to do it, but play around with it. Edit: There's a hide button next to the edit button.

Nightwatcher Boon/Bane (Game)
Stormgate replied to killersquirrel59's topic in Forum Games & Random Stuff
Granted, but unless you do, you and he both immediately go to where Heralds go when tortured. If you do, you lose an arm. I wish to, without impairment of either of our faculties in any way, shape, or form, have as long of an interview with Brandon Sanderson as I want, in which he must answer every question completely and truthfully, with no possibility of RAFO. BTW, this means that I can't have sudden memory loss about my questions, and he doesn't forget the answers, among others. -
Facepalm-worthy Moments during Readings
Stormgate replied to Patrick Star's topic in Stormlight Archive
It took me a while to realize that when Wax stores weight in his metalminds, they don't actually get heavier. -
Yes, but you can only have so much Hoid in one place before you start yammering in Pig Alethi and screaming about sticks.

I thought that wasn't actually the Herald. In the end of WoK, it says the Herald dies, unless I'm mistaken.

Dalinar's Flashback Chapter from Oathbringer
Stormgate replied to Argent's topic in Stormlight Archive
I have one thing to say in support of the no drinking: Gavilar was fighting for his life while Dalinar was in a drunken stupor. -
So, I propose that when people become Rithmatists, the Shadowblaze forms a bond similar to a symbiotic relationship. The human gets the ability to animate chalk drawings, and the Shadowblaze gets someone to help fight the Forgotten. Something similar happens with the Forgotten.
-
Although, it could have been manipulation of the Dor by other countries (the Derethi religion comes to mind)

Nobody is. Anybody who says differently is writing an inferior story.

My middle name is David. And no, I'm as close to being from Newcago as Reckoners is to being Cosmere.

Suppose so. Makes my theory much less groundbreaking (pun if you think about it).

On the note of Herald immortality, what about that one who died? What happened to him?

Yesterday I gave my sister (13) Elantris, and she said it was boring before she reached Sarene's first PoV. I still have hope for getting her to maybe read Warbreaker or Mistborn.

How would said kandra worldhop? FTL travel, maybe? -

Good idea in concept, but I don't know how that would be implemented. However, I have as much control over these matters as a Drab trying to Awaken something. I also have metaphors worse than a Highstorm during the First Annual Roshar Card House Festival.

A small bump in the theory. Except for that part, my theory remains intact.

So, for a while now, we have known about the possibility of FTL travel allowed via Allomancy. I'm not sure where, but we are also fairly confident that bendalloy's speed bubbles have something to do with it. Now, in one WoB, Sanderson said that we were close, but we were missing an important part. I have tried to find any theories with relevant information, but it has been inconclusive. So, I'm going off of one WoB that I found when I was bored. This is by no means conclusive, but I have played around with it in my head, and I believe I have determined how FTL is possible using bendalloy. Break the Allomancer's spiritual gravitational bond to the planet. I propose that the way to do this is by making the gravity that is influencing the Allomancer come from a different source. Translation: put them on the moon. I don't exactly mean the moon, a spaceship with artificial gravity would probably do the job, assuming it was an adequate distance from the planet. So, you have a bendalloy burner in a spaceship with artificial gravity and plenty of metal. He burns the metal, and, assuming the bubble is bigger than the ship, the ship will begin to go much faster than an identical ship with identical power settings outside the bubble. So, with high enough burning rate and speed of the ship, you could go faster than the speed of light relative to the outside of the bubble. Basically, to an observer outside the bubble, you achieve FTL travel. Inside the bubble, you don't achieve FTL travel. I have little evidence to support this. To those with physics degrees or contradicting WoBs, fire away.

Granted. You now have sweaty palms whenever you look at another human being. I wish to be able to practice AonDor. -
Do the Heralds believe in the Almighty?
Stormgate replied to KnightGradient's topic in Stormlight Archive
Exactly. It still requires conscious thought, but I use words like storming. Being the only Sanderfan in the house, my family brushes it off as just normal abnormality (I have always been unusual).
