  1. @Dragonheir, @The Stormfather, what say you? For it is October, and I'm sorry for the double post.
  2. I did think of this, but didn't remember if they were inside Forum Games and Random Stuff. But yeah. Essentially that.
  3. I always rep recursion. Edit: to help break the cycle, have a meme. I do not know to whom it applies - it does to me, kind of. Despite my being a subject of the Law of Degrading Activity. (If anyone uses this term outside of this thread I demand royalties. Not that I'll get any.)
  4. So a friend (@Spring613, apologies for tagging you) has shared with me a video on the music/Rhythms of the various lights! It sound nice, thought people here will appreciate it.
  5. So, I recently encountered a Sharder who wrote a couple of songs like this on here. Some of them may have been linked here, but one I'm pretty sure wasn't is this When You Believe Knights Radiant version. Maybe I'll link some of their other stuff later, if there's interest.
  6. So, I made a poll over on tumblr about which Cosmere faction is the most Jewish. If you're Jewish and you have a Tumblr account I invite you to answer; if you don't have a tumblr account - feel free to share your opinion here, including what you think I've missed. If there will be demand I might make a thread for it.

  7. Currently I'm tempted to start it alone, since currently there doesn't seem to be much interest. However, considering both of the people who did express interest here said they might be available in a couple of months... I suppose we'll see around October if we can get to it. It isn't much, but IDK. I do still kind of want this to happen.
  8. @Dragonheir, @The Stormfather, are you still interested in joining? How about you, @ʟɪɢʜʈ? Specifically to Dragonheir, in the past people who trusted their libraries didn't get the book immediately when it came out (unsurprisingly). We can wait for people to have physical copies, though, as the only deadline for that is too many people becoming forereaders. Also, @Treamayne, you seem like you were here mostly to be helpful, but you're obviously invited as well if you want. Sorry for tagging you.
  9. This is a status update that I posted here one Hebrew calendar year ago. I believe its content is still just as relevant as it was back then, including the birthday wishes. 

    Thank you for reading, have a good day.

  10. Returning to the thread's roots: @AonEne, @#1 Taln Fan I suppose I also should've congratulated you for the promotion, Will, so there you have it. Congratulations on becoming mod!
  11. Stare at it, wandering if the Elendel Basin functions like the US, because I had the impression it was more of a collection of city states. WWYDIYF Wax's credit card IYP?
  12. Wear it. Obviously. WWYDIYF a thread IYP? Ma'am, it's been a little over two weeks. I'm pretty sure this thread had longer inactivity periods.
  13. There are honestly a lot of things I could say to that. But the first of them is this: Christians believe Jesus to be G-d/the son of G-d. That belief has nothing to do with him being the Messiah or not, and it's just not compatible with Judaism. What I'd do in case the Messiah arrives is a whole lot different from what you, as (I assume) a Christian, would assume. It also doesn't really matter for your original question and my reply to it. If we were discussing Christianity, I'd have had a couple of questions back to you. However, this isn't the place for that. I could, I suppose, go to general religious discussion and follow on there.
  14. Messianics are, in the end, Christians. If they believe that Jesus is G-d in some way, that contradicts core tennants of Judaism. Besides that, I heard a couple of things about the origins of Messianic Judaism that didn't sound too good to me. In addition to the fact that most of what I've seen of Messianics was making videos mocking Rabbinic Judaism and trying to convince people to convert... Well, in the end, it doesn't matter. They're Christians (or Christian converts), and can practice that in peace.
  15. Yes: @Brandon Sanderson. As you'll notice, it's old and completely inactive. And hopefully doesn't have mail notifications on for tagging, because that would be horrifying. (Then again, at least I'm not that one user who repeatedly tagged the head admin of the forum... But that's a story for another day.) Peter Ahlstrom also has an account here, and I think he occasionally visits typo threads? But, to be honest, at this point it's not particularly interesting beyond being a fun fact.
  16. All right, but for the protocol, Brandon didn't log into the Shard in a while now, so this barely counts as a Sharder meme. (Before anyone asks, he wasn't on when I joined. He has a user but it just sits there.)
  17. Pull it out, look at the copper jewel for a second, then sight and put it back in my pocket. Because sadly I'm not a feruchemist, not to speak of the fact it's not my metalmind. WWYDIYF zephyr spores IYP?
  18. Because you can't quote when you edit, it feels like a grey area, despite it not really being that.
  19. ‘Aleichem shalom! Apologies for this thread not being active, I have been slowly drifting away from the Shard. Anyway, yeah, Gut Mo‘ed! (Trying my more recent transliteration system here, because reasons.)
  20. Let them eat it. Then get killed by angry Frenchmen for a completely different reason than the one you think. WWYDIYF brioche IYP?
  21. I know it's a bit late, and the Law of Degrading Activity consumes all etc, but to some of us it's still Purim, so happy Purim! To the rest, hope you'll manage to finish the Chametz before Pesach.
  22. Speaking of, @Ookla the Arbiter, here's a meme for you: I took the liberty to use an old name of yours, hope it doesn't confuse too many people.
  23. Would this suffice?
  24. ... Well, I guess that settles it then. Except it probably any commercial use outside of New Zealand is still prohibited. Meaning, not only would you have to do it in New Zealand, you also won't be able to sell it out. If we want to do it for the personal use of everyone who signed in we'll have to all go to New Zealand, probably.
  25. I also forgot to mention how you're trying to make this worse. I was there (sort of) when the Clone Season trend started. It was just that an inside joke between two sharders who swapped PFPs coincided with the millionth post celebration. The whole thing is ridiculous because apparently the millionth post celebration overshadowed the Shard's tenth birthday, which occured a couple of months earlier. The thread for it is what popularized the clones, I think - then called the Truthless Troops (you can look it up, there's a thread of them somewhere). Then they decided to start an annual trend of changing their PFPs to be the same for a million seconds. I'm not sure if it survived more than one year, though. Anyway, I'm pretty sure suggestions for doing it during Ookla season were quickly shot down. If you'll manage to organise it during Ookla season, you'll manage to make it worse than the original. (Waiting for someone else to reply so as to not double post. It was an edit to my original post, but took too long to write and had I kept it this way it would've passed under the radar. Hope it's comes off as fine and not derailing.)
