  1. I like Szeth. He's cool.
  2. um maxal. We just finished part 1. There are still 4 more parts to go through. Brandon isn't going to leave the Adolin thing alone. I would bet my metacarples on it. As I've said before, trust the Man. He Knows better than we do. And I've never known him to just leave something like that hanging forever. If it's not addressed, please go ahead and get upset. But let's actually finish the book before we make any judgments.
  3. I'm inclined to think that's actually because of the way that he suddenly makes a decision to follow the oath, rather than easing into it like most of the other radiants we've seen so far. Also did I really get 40 rep for making a fart joke? I don't know whether to be pleased or just really disappointed.
  4. Eh, it was a long shot anyway.
  5. Pssst. Send it to me instead. No need for it to go to waste
  6. Not talking about the Oathpact. Or maybe we are. Dont know enough about the oathpact to know. No, I'm talking about a piece of the Herald's spiritual web, being broken off during torture, which would be why all the Heralds are so broken. They actually have a piece of themselves missing. A piece connected to Honor, maybe. Then that piece was taken, and was corrupted and enlarged and turned into an unmade.
  7. So as a coGM in the middle of GMing the MR right now, I've been learning a LOT. This has certainly been helping me focus my ideas for future games, of which I have three solid ones, and know what is reasonable and what isn't. In fact, I did join back in March, so I'm still relatively new. But perhaps I can provide a different perspective. Even more than just social, it all is just so... intense. I would like to say I designed my Princess Bride game as a direct counter to that. I designed a mechanic called Fashion- essentially a theme that must be present in one of your posts during that day, with a different theme (or joke) each day. I also made it into a kind of activity filter, where if you don't have enough time to follow the fashion, you go to the Fire swamp. I've also been toying with rewards for following the fashion (the question is more what they'll be, not whether they'll be there.) Anyway, my point is, maybe the games should be a little more lighthearted. One of the best games I played was my very first, MR23 I think, MLP. It being MLP was ridiculous, but it was fun and engaging and really got me into the swing of things. Meanwhile other games have turned into oppressive grunge matches between Village and Elim and neutral, like L35. Those just... aren't as fun. The intensity of the drive to win just kind of takes all the fun out of it. (My princess bride game is designed to be fun whether you win or not). Now I don't have all the answers here, and I won't pretend to. But making the games a little more... fun, might help to relieve tension. Perhaps rewards beyond just winning, things that are like a players record of things. Sort of like Hero's RP competition in MR23. Sort of like the paper plate awards you talked about. And maybe all those awards could go in the signature or something, so a player can quickly grasp what they mean without having to read entire games to find out.
  8. I'm going to be honest, I have no predictions for the future of the Stormlight archive other than... very vague ones that Roshar will survive the conflict. Its weird, that our only real predictions are ones that are short term. We have no idea what Brandon will throw at us. So much to happen in 7 more books after Oathbringer...
  9. Or... corrupted pieces of the Heralds connection to Honor, broken off during the torture, and turned into an awful thing.
  10. I would have ran
  11. Well that went away quickly. How is a Kalads phantom better than a compounder *sigh*
  12. I don't have it. Which is why I want to take... a census of who has it. Yup.
  13. Who has it already? I certainly... am not planning on doing anything nefarious.
  14. Plus the Heralds are still around.
  15. I sort of imagine it's a piece of the Heralds, separated from its context.
  16. Corrupted Herald oath idea
  17. Down 27? No thanks
  18. Darn it all you upvoted me right past so leet that hoid can't compete
  19. YES! THE PERFECT RANK! STEELDANCER COMES! NOOOOOOOOO I MISSED LEET. stupid Oathbringer threads giving me so many upvotes. I missed both 1 rep ranks *sniff*
  20. Could he create a low enough pressure area to create a storm?
  21. Who needs relationships. I have Brandon Sanderson *sigh* I love him I love him I love him
  22. I'm sorry. But I want more Kaladin. Not Shallan.
  23. We need lift
  24. I just read that again. Storms that's beautiful.
  25. Oh gosh. Kaladin broke wind.
