  1. OK, just making sure. Anyway, in coppermind it says that Autonomy had interactions with the ghostbloods, so that could be a connection to Tyn.
  2. I agree with those 2. Also, are we allowed to check things up in coppermind/arcanum?
  3. I think it might only be in the epilogues.
  4. The other ten portraits in the chapter headers are supposed to be the heralds, so who's this?
  5. Is there something for starving?
  6. First, I made a mistake the book says there was a short rack in the second room which implies that there weren't that many. Cobb says that cadets aren't allowed in there which implies that full pilots are (though he might've been referring to the first room). It doesn't sound like the second room was a collection of high security recordings, it sounds like contained all the earlier battles. It could've been set up that way so as not to draw attention that there was a secret in that recording. Jorgen was clearly a special case he knew a lot of secrets because of his family's high status.
  7. You can check out someone's previous names on their profile page by clicking on the little circular arrow to the right of their name.
  8. The ease in which Spensa gains access to the record of the Alta battle is very strange, as It contains a big secret. Even though she needed Cobb's code to get in and he may have had special access, It was in a room with many other records, which presumably were not state secrets. Furthermore, assuming that it was easily accessible, how is it possible that her father's treason wasn't common knowledge? Everyone would want to see the nation's most infamous event, and then gossip about it. Also why was Cobb so ready to let her see it? Was he trying to pay her back for calling him a coward?
  9. It also builds momentum. If it came out now it wouldn't be as exciting as a year from now.
  10. I think so, but where are we going to find a shiqua that fits a chasm fiend.
  11. Words of Radiance or Hero of Ages.
  12. Maybe we could put eveyone's regular names alongside their ookla names on the grid.
  13. Forged clothing, 2 styles in one.
  14. The original Donkey Kong was my favorite. Also liked Zelda and Golden Sun.
  15. How about Lightsong and Jasnah, neither believes he's a god. Or Jasnah and Lightsong's brother, that would be interesting.
  16. There are similar topics already, but they're more specific, and this doesn't really fit in so I started a more general topic. If Sanderson wrote Star Wars Rebels, The Bendu would've spiked Kanan giving him steel-vision instead of force-vision.
  17. yes, but here its quite clear how to pronounce it, as it means 2 shards.
  18. In the introduction to sel it says that sel is dishardic. I assume that this is supposed to be pronounced di-shardic with a long i, but he (Michael Kramer) pronounces it dis-hardic with a short i.
  19. Is this a sanderfan? https://www.kongregate.com/accounts/lronEyes
  20. There is a concept which comes up many times that 1 + 1 = 3. (not an Alcatraz reference) Here are a few examples: 1. Alloys do not have the properties of the original metals, combined. 2. Combining 2 types of investiture, (i.e. twinborns, radiants) has a new effect. (Ars Arcanum of Wax & Wayne books) 3. Neither Ruin nor Preservation can create on their own but together they can. So we can also say that 16 x 1 = infinity.
  21. I got all the Alcatraz books from the New York Public Library. I saw something about a map in one of the books, but I couldn't find it. Then I saw on the back cover of book 3, "Inside the Jacket: The Map the Evil Librarians Librarians Don't Want You to See." I tried taking off the dust jacket, but it was covered with an extra plastic jacket which made it hard to get off. Eventually, I got the jacket off, but I couldn't see the whole map because the flaps were attached on the ends. This plastic jacket (which I assume was put there by the by the librarians, rather than the publisher) is further proof that the librarians don't want us to see the map.
  22. When you expect to find pewter listed after iron in the nutrition facts.
  23. When you read through more than 250 pages of this... ...and still have something to add.
