    The last Dragonsteel Prime chapter has been posted. https://brandonsanderson.com/dragonsteel-prime-chapter-37-bridge-four-7/ Frost is back with some knowledge to drop on Jerick.

    Hmm, I'd be shocked if the WoB is a hint at "Vivenna will be a major part of Stormlight and warrant a special painting." That said, Ishar and Shalash make a lot of sense here. The masks could be a nod to the art and beauty aspects of her attributes. I can also see Honor and Cultivation, though. At least, these being religious paintings of those two in idealized human forms.

    Multiple suggestions in this thread and Reddit that the woman is Vivenna. Have I missed something? How do we know Vivenna is at all prominent or relevant to Stormlight? I've read all the preview chapters, so I'm current.

    It's definitely a mistake. They've already fixed it on the page.

    It's almost like Brandon is writing a plot or something.

    So I'll miss out again, since he never comes to Ohio.
  7. masaru
    Well...Brandon is trying to tell a story, ya know...

    But not everyone can come to a release party in one specific location of the US...

    A HOID card?? WHAT?

    Q #1: what is that giant thing!?!?!?!

    Whoever is transcribing is a hero for including this.

    I'm all on board with the proposed enforcing of this. Long time coming. In my head, the first reporting of WOBs should be in the Events thread. Obviously then people can quote them anywhere they want, but as a semi-lurker, it's very frustrating to know that there are WOBs dropped into separate forums that I don't check every day. I'd almost suggest just going ahead and setting up posts for every Brandon date and then letting posters add their reports to those pre-setup threads.

    Woo boy. https://play.google.com/books/article/nng7wfdyae/arcanum-unbounded-excerpt

    Thank you for the WOB on Vathi. Missed that. I think my point regarding Silverlight is that nothing so far proves that it's a city on a planet we've seen before as you posited here (even though you went on to say you think they are two separate groups). I was mainly concerned with the conclusion in sentence 2 leading from sentence 1.

    He's already commented on the timeframe of these essays? (I'm still clinging to Khriss=Vathi, so that helps).

    "From a planet we've seen before" doesn't equal "Silverlight is on a planet we've seen before." The Ones Above could be from Scadrial, (for instance) but currently reside at Silverlight, because they are worldhoppers. Braize has to be the planet with the splinters, right?

    Happy for his pocketbook and family, but... Not sure about this for a bunch of reasons: starting with Way of Kings when we are only 2 books into a 10 book series, pretty unknown company, SAW writers?, further drain on BS's time. Then again, it's just an option at this point so may be years away from anything going on camera.

    It being an Aon is itself a little...eyebrow raising. Feels like an odd choice to use that particular one out of the dozens available.

    Is a swastika. Where is this from and shouldn't it be changed?

    The add-on is a bit disappointing. It's an interesting idea, but much too expensive for what they are. A shame, too, cause a late addition add-on that everyone wants would really pump up those pledges, making the minis and further stretch goals more possible. Hoping they announce more SGs soon and that spurs some on-the-fence people into pledging.

    I agree with the idea that Khriss' entrance was very in keeping with her starting out as a somewhat sheltered and pampered duchess. She has the inquistitiveness that would lead her to being the AA Author, but this is just her before anything big happens to her.
  22. masaru
    Wow, that's interesting. Had no idea they included declines and the end of project gain. Very cool.
  23. masaru
    Thanks for that analysis. Keep in mind, though, that Kicktraq doesn't really account for the middle-to-end slowdown of most Kickstarters. Granted there will be a big surge at the end when the 48 hour notice kicks in, but Kicktraq just extrapolates based on the current rate. Things I'd like to see: - Player mats: for organizing your cards and tokens - More Problem cards: for more replayability - Campaign mode: A sequence of Problems that construct a narrative, tied with a new card, Events, that help take you through the story of the first book.

    Not mentioned in announcement, but holding out hope for the cosmere star chart and Khriss intros to each planet as non-I-bought-that-ebook-already content.

    Doesn't seem so: http://coppermind.net/wiki/File:Aon_Rao.svg
