Observer

It's almost like your opposition received a sudden... Surge, of activity... YEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAH!

Anybody seen enough of Fate/Zero to tell me when/if it gets good? I get a lot of recommendations for it, but the first episode is killing me with 40 minutes of very little but stock footage. It's rather stupid of me to judge something by the first 20 or so minutes, but opinions would be nice before I devote a whole day's free time to something I might not like.

Roshar 3 Scadrial 23 No. This is round two. No immortals, just a cap of 30

Roshar 12 Scadrial 18 You made the right move.

Roshar 15 Scadrial 18 Following Harmony is cool and all, but he has more Ruin in him. Time to replicate this imbalance.

Nalthis 2 Scadrial 16 Let's end this.

Nalthis 6 Scadrial 17 To my first Sanderson book and favorite series! Yolen 5

Nalthis 7 Scadrial 16 Yolen 5 First of the Sun 2 Also, gratz on the new rank Left. It's a little oversized, but still good.

Nalthis 5 Scadrial 15 That doesn't mean it's safe just yet, smart one. Sel 2 Yolen 14 First of the Sun 4

So, it's possible to extend the range of your bubbles if you flare the metal hard enough. In that case, do we have an official word on what would happen if Wayne and Marasi both burned their metals at the same time, Wayne doing a small bubble and Marasi doing a huge one? She said the bubble cancel, but what happens when the sizes differ? Do we now have a ring of slowness? Or does the whole thing come down?

This new type of bot has picked much worrying, albeit less annoying, option of posting once in every section of the forum. If they learn to spam them all, we'll need to fix something quickly.

Let's get the most obvious "I really love to rant about how horrible they are" villain out of the way. Umbridge from Harry Potter. She's a demon, and hating her is so much fun you'd think she's worse than Voldemort. I really didn't want to like Raistlin from Dragonlance once I finally got around to reading it years back. He's the kind of author-pet character I normally can't stand, and his hypocritical and A God am I attitude should have made me hate him, but for some reason I just wound up liking his anyway. I'm not sure if it was the character or my struggle to hate him that's made him so memorable compared to the rest of the cast.

Sorry, but it's my instinct to attack the strongest competition on the board, and not to look at who supports it. (I really do need to check more often. My mistakes with KK are proof.) Ashyn 10 Nalthis 12 Roshar 10 Scadrial 14 Sel 8 Taldain 10 Yolen 10 Threnody 4 First of the Sun 9

It's been suggested a few times before, but I'm not sure if we've ever come up with enough to play.

Alright, so I didn't see any posts. Time to use anger issues to advance the plot.

Dar'Omnir listened impatiently to the newcomers for as long as he could stand it. Sudden arrivals, stupid banter, pointless stories of risky murders. Nothing worth hearing about here. Dar'Omnir growled with annoyance, then spoke. "Are there any other people we need to wait around for? Any other stories that need to be swapped? Any jokes not yet shared? Because last I checked, we had a job to do. Are we going to waste precious time chatting, or are we going to start working on what brought us all here in the first place?" Just to be sure, Dar'Omnir avoided mentioning the contract, though there didn't appear to be anybody within earshot, or for that matter, anybody that cared. Regardless, this was a large job, and a very important one. Sitting around and wasting time while talking so plainly of murder was a risk, in a situation where any kind of risk should be avoided. It was simply unprofessional. There was, of course, a part of Dar'Omnir that recognized the sheer hypocrisy of that train of thought, but he ignored it. He was more careful than they were. After a brief pause, he repeated his question. "Is there anybody who isn't here yet that we need to wait for, or can we start talking about this operation?"
