  1. Chapter 21, Tojin says The lats are a pulling muscle in the back, and hence can't preform a pressing motion. Maybe should be bench press/chest press or lat pulldown?
  2. Welcome! What's your favorite Brandon book?
  3. As I’m sure you know, Wind and Truth is out! There’s a lot of pages that need to be created or updated, and we’d love to have your help! Similar to what we’ve done for some past releases like Tress of the Emerald Sea, this year we’re hosting our Edits of Champions challenge, centered around all the pages that need to be updated for Wind and Truth. Whether you’ve never made an edit before or are an experienced veteran, we’re happy to have your help! If you’re new to the Coppermind, don't worry; we’ll provide you with whatever guides and assistance you need. You don’t need any prior experience, just a willingness to help out! You can find the list of objectives here. (Do note that the spreadsheet has full Wind and Truth spoilers!) How does it work? We’ve compiled a list of 120 important pages that need to be created or updated, and have assigned them a point value between 1-4, based on difficulty and the amount of info you’ll need to add. If there’s a significant page that you think should be on the list, but isn’t, please let us know! What’s in it for me? We want to motivate people to help, so we will be giving out Coppermind awards for every user who completes an objective, as well as awards to the three editors who earn the most points during the next three months. These awards will then be proudly displayed on your user page for all to see. How do I get started? The most important thing is to be bold! Content is hard to write, but we can always format your stuff if it doesn't quite match conventions. MediaWiki notation may appear scary at first, but the best way to learn is through experience. If you're interested, we have lots of guides to help: Help:Contents. It does help a lot to have ebooks so you can find instances of a specific word or person. (This is extremely helpful for minor characters). If you have physical books, ask us and we can help you find information so you don't need to reread the whole text. We can also direct you towards some good articles to use as a go-by. Before you dive into working on a page, first go to the Edits of Champions spreadsheet, and put your name next to the page you want to claim, so people know you’re working on it. You can claim up to two pages at once if you like, though we’d ask that you don’t claim two 3 or 4 point pages at the same time. (Once you complete one, however, you can claim another!) Come join us on the dedicated Coppermind Editing Discord, or come chat in the #coppermind channel on the 17th Shard Discord. We are happy to help!
  4. Treamayne is correct, I've moved this to the Wind and Truth spoiler board.
  5. WaT general If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask!
  6. Hey all! We posted this on the discord but I thought I'd share it here as well. If you're coming to Dragonsteel Nexus this year, and there's a specific 17th Shard staff member you want to meet, many of us have fixed times when we'll each be at the 17th Shard booth in the exhibitor hall! Excited to see ya'll there!
  7. I'll also be there! I'll be cosplaying as a huge book nerd xD
  8. I'd have a deep philosophical conversation with it, then probably eat it. (Sorry cheese) WWYDIYF 8,000 tater tots IYP?
  9. Just a heads up, I've moved this topic to the Wind and Truth spoiler board, as it includes spoilers from the preview chapters.
  10. To be clear, nothing from WaT beyond what has been released in the Tor previews (or readings that Brandon has done) will be allowed anywhere on the forums (or Discord) until December 5th at 6pm, Eastern Standard Time. If you see any spoilers before then, please report it and we'll be quick with the delete button.
  11. I think it's definitely possible, but personally I don't he will. He doesn't die if he loses the contest, but instead becomes Odium's champion. I'd say he's more likely to become a Fused than he is to die. I'm sure we'll get some character deaths in WaT, but I don't feel like Dalinar will be one of them. (Side note, I moved this topic to the Stormlight Archive forum instead of Fanworks, as it's a spoiler discussion)
  12. If you have discord, your best bet would probably be the Sanderson Collector's Guild discord server. https://discord.gg/scg
  13. Hi everyone! I'm Will, a Keeper on the Coppermind and one of the Shard's newest mods. I got into Brandon's books during the summer of 2020, and joined the forums and discord a year later. If you can't tell from my username, Taln is my favorite of Brandon's characters. I mostly hang out on the discord, though I occasionally peruse the forum games here. Aside from spending too much time reading and talking about books, I'm also a Psychology and Pre-med student here in the US, and I like to spend my free time singing, grilling, lifting weights, and gaming.
  14. Not usually, since I set 5 or so TPBM has had cheese today
  15. Nah, I'd say it's well rated or underrated sometimes. TPBM drank some water today
  16. I am neither drunk nor a pilot xD TPBM has stayed up till 3:00 am reading before
  17. Gets a stick proclaiming that it is a stick Inserts a plate of cold, moist spaghetti
  18. Indeed, I do exist xD Howdy! also I win
  19. Gets a deluxe bean burrito from Taco Bell Inserts a clump of dirt
  20. I ain't in CAP, but I am quite familiar with it. Several of my friends have been doing it for years
  21. I imagine @Cash67 as a handsome, intelligent young lad with stylish brown hair and glasses, who is probably pretty cool
