One was my main Gmail, which has literally never gotten Brandon's newsletter in a decade and when I re-signup I don't get the confirmation. I also tried my 17S email which also didn't work, but hey, 17S emails sometimes bork out. I finally tried an alt Gmail and that worked.

Of course the only newsletter I’ve ever intentionally signed up for struggles to reach me, whereas petsmart and random baby diaper emails I’ve never signed up for (and I don’t have any pets or kids!) find their way easily! LOL

Just signed up through and alt Gmail and received the most recent email, so hopefully they’ll keep coming!

@Chaos thanks! I’ll try a new email for the newsletter - guess I’m glad I’m not the only one!

Hi friends! How did you get the link for the dark one exclusive livestream? I had pre-ordered dark one and was waiting to get the link (apparently waited too long). Just trying to figure out how dumb I was! I also don’t get Brandon’s newsletters even though I’ve signed up for them, so trying to decide if I should be skeptical of my email or.. thanks!  

Also, thanks for the notes on the livestream!!

Hahaha thanks! I'm glad y'all enjoyed it! It was fun to plan and create!

@Agent34 I was looking for a word of Brandon that said something like this (or hoping it existed). I was getting so hung up on this are they really dead or just brain dead or just need to spend enough time gathering/creating new hordelings. But this makes sense to me, that if enough are dead they lose their personality and for all intents and purposes are dead.  
 

Lots of good things to think about here! Thanks everyone! 

Do we know how to kill a dysian aimian? Would one have to kill each individual hordeling? If this has been discussed elsewhere I would love to be pointed to that discussion! Thanks in advance!

When you see a truck labeled KR Transport and wonder whether the company's operated by the Windrunners or the Elsecallers.

When, while reading this thread and coming across the above post you read “when you see a truck labeled knights raidiant transport,” then finish the sentence and look back only to then realize that it was KR and your brain read Knights Radiant on it’s own. (To be fair, I was on this forum, so I’m sure that has something to do with where my brain was at).

When you feel personally offended during the following experience:

Your brother, who has read, and hence loved, Mistborn asks for the title of “the next Brandon trilogy,” by which he means Stormlight. So I tell him, and then launch into an explanation of the series (because I want him to have realistic expectations-it being larger and longer than he has read and that 3 of 10 are writte ). I talk about the two five-book story arcs, and then mention that each book is essentially a trilogy and a novella and my sister who was sitting nearby started laughing. And now she is telling each member of my family this while laughing. She thinks I’m making it up. So I told her this is like his big epic fantasy, something he didn’t know if he’d ever publish because he didn’t know if anyone would want to read it (I thought I’d read he said something like that). And she said, “and no one is reading it.” And I said “everyone is reading it.” And that made her laugh more. And I’m feeling personally offended, but also defensive about Brandon and his awesomeness.

Currently, the only redeeming quality of my sister is that she’s on page 150 of Mistborn. 

Fjon?

Yay! I’m in!

Pai?

Ok, to recap, we know this character is a singer and is spoken to by Venli. 

Singers that have been guessed:
Eshonai
Thude - dissented when Eshonai wanted all the singers to take stormform, and escaped with some of the other singers
Demid - Venli's once-mate
Rlain
Sah - Kaladin and Moash both meet him
Venli
Eshonai's mother
Zuln - Council of five: dullform
Khen - leader of the group of singers that Kaladin meets
Vai - Sah's daugther
Klade - Council of five: member that was part of the Council that ordered Gavilar's death

Fused that have been guessed, because I'm unsure if fused are singers, in the same way that Heralds were once human but aren't really any more...
Leshwi - fused that Moash "kills"
Abaray - according to the coppermind he gave Amaram the stone with Yelig-Nar

I'm certainly not making any traction here, but am going to make two guesses because we're struggling here:
Hariel - the fused that inhabits Demid's body
or
Davim - Council of five: workform

Is there a part in OB where Venli tries talking to an insane fused? And since the fused is crazy they don't talk back to her, hence the clue "was talked to by Venli?" I could be making up this memory...

Ok.... um Thude? Was that a listener from Roshar or a guy from Aether of Night? I don't remember!

He’s from Roshar, he disagrees with Eshonai about stormform and rather than gathering up those who didn’t want to take stormfrom he helps them escape. I also already guessed him 

Can we guess more than once? I still have plenty ideas...

Davim?

When you convinced a guy you were dating to start reading Mistborn, break up with him before he finishes, and now you’re kept up at night 3 years later wondering if he ever finished or if you ruined him from becoming a Sanderfan. 

Are all listeners singers? Or only if they’ve been healed by the everstorm? Or are they considered separate? If all listeners are singers then there are still many that fit  the clues, ahhh..... who to pick.... ok, I’ll go with 

Rlain.

Leshwi?

Thude?

Zahel/vasher?

Shallans father?

Kabsal?

That’s a good idea! I hadn’t thought of anything for the top yet!

I would like to do shardblades. Like, I’ve seen small ornament wands for Harry Potter, but I don’t know if the awesomeness of the shard blade would be lost if they were miniature ornaments.
