Oh no! Well I’m proud of everyone who posts on this thread for not letting it win haha. TLT must prevail!! When he brought Kaladin Chullblessed his noodles, he asked what he was writing about, and ended up having to sit through the entire 30 minute long poem about a bowl of noodles.

Yeah, I just started college, and before that I was busy prepping for college and dealing with my senior year, so I haven’t been on the Shard as much. Glad to have a free moment to hang out on my favorite thread though. Kaladin Chullblessed gave a dramatically sad sigh, and ordered another bowl, this one for here. Then, as he waited, he wrote a poem about the bowl of noodles that had shot off into space.

Hey Ene! I should be trying to sleep right now, but I don’t want to, so here I am. Which, for some reason, is where Noodles TM was. So he ordered a bowl to go.

I really like the idea of a thread where everyone posts how they joined the Shard/what it means to them. I also like Ene’s idea of a party thread, I’m always down to celebrate!! Someone should be ready to make the thread(s)/gallery soon if that’s what we want to do, because we are super close!

Wow, this thread has gotten rustin’ long. Great job guys! Kaladin Chullblessed randomly appeared and walked through the middle of whatever was happening right now. Or, if that was inconvenient, he simply appeared on the sidelines and intently watched whatever was happening right now.

Well first of all thanks haha. Sometimes I feel like I’m being too aggressive or annoying but it’s good to know people think I’m nice. And, uh, I don’t know. I just always try to say the kind of stuff I want people to say to me. Whenever I look over my messages before sending them I try to make sure it’s not something I would feel annoyed, frustrated, or confused reading as the recipient (while also, y’know still being honest). It can result in a lot of overthinking, which isn’t great because then it sometimes takes me days to reply (on social media/text) even thought it should only take like a minute haha. I’ve gotten better lately at replying sooner though. But yeah, basically, I don’t know, I just try to be nice.

Wow, I got 70+ notifications in 12 hours. Glad we’ve moved to a thread now haha. Besides, something this big and awesome totally deserves a thread! Congrats again Ene!!! It’s going to take a while to get used to you being a mod, but it’s also freaking awesome. YOU ARE AWESOME! *hands Ene a cake*

When you move into your new college apartment and the number is 16 and you decide to take it as an omen that you’re going to have an awesome semester (and maybe even meet some cool Sanderfans ).

Yep! Just got one in the IT center at the college I’m attending. I basically just answer calls haha. To be the very best, like no one ever was. People? Oh, I thought those were songlings. Annyeong! A freshman in college. Just moved into my apartment yesterday and I start school Monday! It’s fine haha. Even I still think I’m a HS senior sometimes since the end of last school year was super weird, including my graduation. Thanks for the questions, and sorry for responding late haha. I’ve been kinda busy the lady couple days.

Oh, wow, that’s crazy haha. Yeah, even though my dad loves Sanderson, even he wasn’t convinced it was worth the price (though he did want it) so he ended up not getting it. That’s awesome you were able to get your hands on it though!

Oh, I wish haha, it’s seriously beautiful! Unfortunately, I don’t have the money for that kind of thing right now. Hopefully I’ll be able to get my hands on some future leather bounds though because I think they’re super pretty! Did you get it?

I love them all, but I think I’d have to go with The Way of Kings. Roshar is my favorite Cosmere world, and I think WoK is a great introduction to it. Plus it’s the SA book that focuses on Kaladin, and he’s my favorite.

The Girl with the Whispering Shadow. It's the second book in The Crowns of Croswald series, a middle grade fantasy. It's pretty good so far. Ooh, good question! So it was actually on Discord that I first heard of TUBA. It was in the KotC server (which I liked to hang out on even though I didn't really participate in the roelplay anymore). Stormblessed Dolphin was talking about something called TUBA when I got online. I asked what it was and he explained it was a group that opposes the DA and gives out Hemalurgy free cookies. He told me TUBA had been in hiding for awhile but they were about to reveal themselves and become a more public group. So I said I was interested in joining, since I already tried to warn people on intro threads about the DA's cookies, and I thought it would be cool to be part of a group who did that kind of stuff (I didn't realize it would be a roleplay, otherwise I might not have joined, just because that requires a lot of time haha). He let me join (this is also when Sami joined too, I think), and for awhile, I was only part of the TUBA discord server, but then I heard about a PM on the Shard. I asked if I could join it, Storm added me, and boom, that's how I ended up in the TUBA PMs. I've loved being in them and hanging out, even if I don't participate in the roleplay. It took me a minute to remember this story, but it's finally come to me! I was looking for a Knights Radiant quiz online (since I think that kind of stuff is fun, even if it's not super accurate haha). One website that popped up was a thread on the Shard with a link to a KR quiz and people discussing their results. I took the quiz, but then I came back to the thread on the Shard and thought, hey, maybe I should share my results too. I found out you needed an account to comment, so I made one. Thing is, after making the account, I never actually commented my results. I got too shy. It was a new website that I didn't really know the rules for or how it worked, so I decided I'd get to know the website a little better before I actually did anything. It's a good thing I did too, because if I'd just commented my results, I would have been necroing a couple-year-old thread haha. But yeah, after lurking for a little while and getting to know the Shard better, I found out it's a super cool place, and started getting involved. Thanks for the questions, Ene! I don't think I've shared either of those stories before, actually, so it was super fun typing them all out!

Just so this doesn’t turn into an argument or anything, I was referencing what @DramaQueen mentioned.

That’s good to hear! I think it has a pretty good selection as well, glad it could help you find more Sanderson.

Oh, that’s cool! Yeah, I live in Madison County, so we’re pretty close!

How are you? What is your favorite ice cream flavor? 1, 2, or 3? How many jolly ranchers do you think you could fit in your mouth at once? Which Cosmere creature would you most like to have as a pet? Orange? Who’s your favorite Sanderson character? What’s your favorite type of snake? Have a good day!

There’s one in Idaho and Wyoming, right? I’m pretty sure I’ve passed through Idaho’s on the way to Yellowstone, Jackson, or the Tetons, but I don’t think I’ve ever really stopped there. I live pretty close to it though. For Wyoming’s, that’s where Grand Teton National Park is, right? If so, then I’ve been there, if not then I have no idea haha. I don’t go to either that frequently, but again, I think we pass through Idaho’s on our way to National Parks and stuff.

Ooh, I don’t know! I like chocolate the most probably. Reese’s Pieces and Baby Ruth are both really good. My favorite that’s not chocolate are Jolly Ranchers.

Yes, they were delicious! It was my first time making Danish butter cookies (I think that’s what they’re called? ) and they turned out really yummy, even if they didn’t all look great haha.

When you attempt to make a ghostblood symbol shaped cookie. Does it actually look like the ghostblood symbol? No. But the point is that I tried.

I wish I could give you all my upvotes, this is beautiful.

Rebecca screamed. Really loud. With all the excitement she had. “AAAAAAAH, WE MADE IT TO PAGE 1,000!!!!! I’M KINDA FREAKING OUT RIGHT NOW!!!! I’M SO PROUD OF Y’ALL!!!!!“ Rebecca was sad she had missed posting on the 1,000th page (but it was her own darn fault for not being around much recently), but she was so glad that this incredible thread had made it this far. She squealed with excitement, and gave everyone really big hugs and slices of cheesecake. And then a thermonuke hit her.
