  1. Sorry if that sounded like a blame, I just meant to agree with the six colors thing.
  2. Newton was a total hack (Thanks for that, Melody). Everyone knows that indigo isn't real. Brown and pink are more colors than Indigo, and they're literally just different shades of colors. Six distinct colors. You haven't heard the last of 'The Hexachroma rant'.
  3. HAHA! The domination shall begin! (That is... once Ookla season ends...)

    Verdin watched as Harmony became translucent. Stones, Verdin was outmatched.
  5. Basically, It's like a little thought in my head, that came from whatever, until it explodes into a full thing. Idea fairy is definitely real. (I'm so descriptive. Thing, Whatever, Basically, Little thought)
  6. "Well, that was helpful, if... uncomfortable."
  7. Alright, I'm back. I had a dicey encounter with a few obligators, But I got some info. Lord Tresting? He's part of the Mafia. I'm pretty sure he's in deep cover. One will notice in the first few pages of tFE that Tresting makes some observations that would likely seem natural to most Scadrians of the final empire. "Ash fell from the sky...Tresting had hoped to avoid getting soott stains... parasol would likely be effective" Now one will notice that he thinks of himself as Tresting. This may be a SEFBM tactic. If you use your real name as a code name, it will be natural to you. Those you encounter who figure you out will assume you much better than you are, as well as assuming that's not your real name. He also notes the ineffectiveness of the Skaa after thousands of years of slavery. This is where his cover slips. Yes, a lord might have said and thought that, but if he was known to be a SEFBM member, this becomes a different statement, asserting himself as a character who is used to cooperative, effective slaves, which may give us a hint as to where exactly the SEFBM may have originated. After speaking to the obligator, he offers that he stay for dinner, which the obligator refuses. This, I believe, may be an attempt on Tresting's part to kill the obligator, and use some SEFBM technique, or perhaps a native Kandra, to impersonate him and replace a servant of Straff Venture with one of his own. This is what I picked up a little bit after my lengthy commute to Scadrial. There's more to come.
  8. You just have to have the ideas, and then when people say someone already came up with that, say, "Ha ha but I didn't know that so my idea is still original". Living under a rock helps with this. (I know from experience.)
  9. Mine was doing that as well, but it came back after a minute or so.
  10. "Perhaps both... or a mix of the two..."
  11. "I guess we'll be off, then." Ben frowns. "Which direction was it, again?"
  12. There were some people right beside Dura's alley. Perhaps they had something of worth? Best not to try and rob the whole group. He was only one man.
  13. "Everybody ready?"
  14. "Good to know we've got that covered."

    Verdin begins throwing larger and larger sticks at the golem. He was pretty sure he'd gone crazy.
