  1. 2509. Number things out of order sdrawkcab sgniht etirW .8052
  2. Interesting, but Idoubt hoid would describe himself as the charm of a sonnet but the morals of a limerick. If like Xisis was telling the story sure, but I don't think that's how hoid works
  3. Over in this thread!
  4. A bomb with a 51% chance of exploding. Wait why did you change your name 6 days before the end of ookla season?
  5. I think it's explicitly stated that he knows where he needs to be, but not what he needs to do. I doubt future sight would not tell him what he should do, but would tell him where to be. In Tress, maybe?
  6. Heraldic
  7. Iff you pronounce Ksauce with the oh making the right sound, it sounds like quesos (pronounced Kay-Sohs, it's Spanish for cheese)
  8. @Nitpicking Technically you don't have to, but these are some major spoilers for WaT, and it would be nice if they were spoiler. Also, the first point still stands. Surges were still less regulated at that time because of the situation of the Honor Shard, and so the heralds would have had at least less bound abilities and possible unbound. You're pointing out a meaningless distinction in word choice, when the effect is shown to be the same, and they used an assumption made for like 95% of the series. WaT Just because they got the reason wrong doesn't invalidate that particular argument at all, since the effect being used as evidence is directly seen, and it being caused by one thing or another doesn't change the essence of the argument. edit: Just reread you name and now I feel kinda dumb, but still^^^
  9. Okay, but there's a difference between people thinking that you're looking dumb intentionally, and people actually thinking you're dumb. I think there's a WoB about how embarrassed he was during tress, since everyone actually thought he was dumb (might be misremembering/misinterpretting, I can't find it)
  10. Absolutely, it's vague and nebulous. In that particular case, I'd side against the parents, but it's really hard to make generalizations that say that's OK, but others are not, and I'll admit that cases like that and similar might get overlooked. (though still might argue that it violates pursuit of happiness of the children, and does not particularly protect any of the three essential rights I layed down, but that would be iffy) Keep in mind that this would be in an idealized society, and, knowing that life isn't perfect, and neither are the people in them, many of these can't be perfectly practiced, as humans would naturally take advantage of them. (writing a set of laws/tenets so as to avoid any possibility of human corruption is much harder, and I might even argue near impossible) I do live in the US, and agree with the three essential rights layed down by the Declaration(much better than locke's 'property') However, please do not take this to mean I agree with anything other than those Ideals to strive for, such as the implementation by the founding fathers, the rest of the declaration&constitution, or modern politics, or other things done In the supposed name of the protection of said rights (thank you for being so respectful. I really appreciate it. None of this is meant to be abrasive. if I worded something in a way that made it seem so, please tell me and i'll gladly change it) Honestly thanks to this whole thread for being so awesome. I stayed away for awhile, because I was expecting it to be seriously toxic and argumentative, but y'all are really chill.
  11. Granted. You get a telescope. And also alot of telemarketers constantly trying to sell you crullers. (telescones) I wish for an unsharpened Scimitar in a very secure, and not harmful in anyway, box
  12. Sure, but if light weaving can essentially do exactly the same thing as soulcasting, but for cheaper, then there is no purpose in an entire surge, and that feels incredibly redundant, and not a narrative choice sando would make. I think it's something similar to windrunner's reverse lashing, where it's a combination of both, and also takes comparitively little stormlight, even compared to each of the other surges individually. (maybe not quite so comparitively little, but similar or less than such an advanced and complex lightweaving) Also, keep in mind that Shallan is Spoilers for late SA
  13. K-S-OH-S instead of K-S-AW-S cuz "oh" says the name of the letter O, not awww I'll stop if you want tho
  14. Coder being right (I fixed it)
  15. Fires of December Theories Spoiler
  16. Will add these. 09,10 is full though... With Delight, I believe Love omnipotence though For Just-Short, keep in mind that there are 16 distinct 15-shard systems, so naming them all like that might be tough Same with missed by a mile, except 120
  17. Granted. You have that ability(theorhetically). Unfortunately,you cannot attend since you are teleported to the middle of the ocean in the Absolute Batman Universe. But hey, at least you could win some basketball over there, right? I wish more people would respond to my shard combos(all 65535) thread.
  18. AAAAAND if you get to the 3rd ideal, there's this reeally awesome dude making shardblades.
