Having a Bad Day?: Get 'yer Hugs here!!
Oversleep replied to Curious Anamaximder's topic in General Discussion
Now, that depends whether they used software to do it, or just put a line in the C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts ; years ago my dad put the website of the browser game on it, however he did not know that the actual game used another address, so I wasn't able to see the website, not play. Then I read up a bit and retaliated by putting sites he frequents there. He laughed when he realized what I've done Anyway, if they did not use some software to do it, it's very easy to circumvent @StrikerEZ. Just open it in Notepad. It would look like this: The line forcefully redirects to 127.0.0.1 (localhost IP adress) when you request 17thshard. Putting a # in front of it comments it out, like I did in the screenshot. -
The 17th Shard is Amazing
Oversleep replied to Hoiditthroughthegrapevine's topic in General Discussion
Do not rely on it, though. It's useful at times but it's not something you should rely on. If I'm posting something long, I occassionaly back it up somewhere else (like I did when writing the Oathbringer Letters Theory). Thanks for your kind words, but I'm nowhere near the top contributors to Arcanum. I don't remember stats right now but I feel there are some more people that deserve a mention -

Yeah. It was you who quoted it! -
Jebus's Oathbringer First Impressions
Oversleep commented on Overlord Jebus's article in Columns and Features
I think it's another case of "why does nobody react to Voidbringers" from Edgedancer. When asked about that, Brandon said he was saving that stuff for Oathbringer... it could be the same here. Not that I agree this is a good way to resolve this (it's jarring for me, to be honest) but that's probably what it is.- 5 comments

Szeth, the Stone Shamans, and Taln's Honorblade
Oversleep replied to Calderis's topic in Stormlight Archive
Well, he makes it clear it's not the screams or whispers of people he killed: When he was young. Meanwhile he hears the screams since like what, 2 years ago? Not more than five. -
Szeth, the Stone Shamans, and Taln's Honorblade
Oversleep replied to Calderis's topic in Stormlight Archive
Szeth also mentions in Oathbringer having heard a voice in his head once. It's possible he was bonding a spren at one point, which made him realize Desolation is coming, which caused him to be branded Truthless... -
Szeth, the Stone Shamans, and Taln's Honorblade
Oversleep replied to Calderis's topic in Stormlight Archive
I agree with Part One, disagree vehemently with Part Two and think Part Three would make for a good plot. -
Agreed. Although related.

I'm just happy to have one more person who eats WoBs for breakfast. And who agrees with me or I agree with suprisingly often, not only in WoBs, but also theories and other stuff... I'm bad at writing such things. You're a great part of the community, and it's better for you being in it. @The One Who Connects There you go

There were none in that post

Proportional increase in power requires more than the proportional increase in tapping. Fan term: overtapping, when you're tapping so much you're losing energy. As Sazed put it: But anyway, it should still be possible to tap more youth than you have lived. I think it'd be a question for Brandon.

Hoidsense () uses the same underlying mechanic as chromium Feruchemy - which is manipulation of Fortune. He's not using Feruchemy - or at least we do not know he does.

@Toaster Retribution @Clovermite I don't think the WoB confirming Autonomy as the writer of the second Letter is up yet; it's something that Brandon mentioned to @Chaos after the event (and after recordings have been ended). No, we actually don't know that. It seems that making the avatars is something we haven't seen yet, and does not necessarily mean Splinters. We have to wait and see.

I'm not sure whether you are aware of your influences, but you incorporated Three Realms into your world. BTW, how can Lie make Truth? If it said "it's true", we'd have liar's paradox.

The Official Thread of Relationships
Oversleep replied to Curious Anamaximder's topic in General Discussion
Actually, that kind of question would set off many triggers. At least for me - I mean "this person here just assumed I would give them my notes just like that! What in Damnation?". I'm not saying technique is wrong or bad, but much more subtlety is needed. -
Probably the whole thing with atium not being one of sixteen metals at all. It doesn't match up with the pattern: Pulling | Pushing Internal your past | your future External other's future | other's past Both Pulling metals should deal with past (or future), but instead they do not, which breaks the pattern.

I should have some sort of stamp, maybe with the image of Grumpy Cat, saying "INACCURATE!" that I could post in such cases okay okay I know it's a joke plz don't kill me

Random Stuff X: Something Weird

Merry Christmas everyone! or Happy Holidays, or Happy Sol Invictus I guess -
The Witcher Series by Andrzej Sapkowski
Oversleep replied to Felt's topic in Entertainment Discussion
I love it. But I can't vouch for translations to carry over everything perfectly though -
Sliverism. Not Silverism: S-L-I-V-E-R-I-S-M it has nothing to do with the shiny metal

Wait, did I see someone defending microtransactions or did I misread?

... I plead insanity!

It works far better if it's a wall though

Dr Strange is Cosmere (spoilers)
Oversleep replied to Delightful's topic in Entertainment Discussion
I asked that question 5 months ago, when Ragnarok wasn't out. In the meantime I have seen it. I don't understand why you are responding to such an old question.
