Awesomeness Summoned

That's so nice... but I'll admit... I genuinely dislike you. Running around with your sissy knife and dainty hand, gaining on me with leaps and bounds... destined to surpass me in both rep and ratio.

It's that darn fish and it's crazy eye. Can never quite get a read on what it's thinking.

I'll try and look up direct links when I have a little more time but most of this has been discussed on other threads. Edit: This thread talks about humans not being native to Roshar and what the tranqueline halls might be. It also contains a link to a previous thread by Rooster on the same topic.

So far its looking like the same group as game 4. If the roster gets too full, and there are some new players that want to give the game a try, I'll gladly sit this one out. Edit: Not that I don't like the group from game 4 or anything Just want to give some new people a chance.

Well, seeing as how there were a couple thousand characters in WoT, you were bound to accidentally use at least one.

She was one of the Salidar Aes Sedai that swore fealty to Rand and traveled with Perrin. Glad to see a delurk Seonid and hope to see more of you! Have you read all his short fiction listed HERE?

Nah, the real secret is that he's like shakespear and doesn't really exist. It's actually a multitude of posters working together to craft just the right comments to garner rep.

That would be a fun scene to read... Would you like to kill some evil? Nale appraised the sword for a moment then blandly responded, "Yes, I would." He looked up to find the strange man who threw the sword at him scratching his head in a very what now? fashion.

I don't remember exactly how much she knows about it, but I do remember her musing about the importance of the Parshendi music during her prelude.

Sorry, only a horneater can pronounce it that way (or maybe Polynesian people). Edit: I'll stop derailing the topic now. My apologies.

Is that the proper adjectivefying of Scadrial? I always just use Scadrian. Why didn't anyone tell me I could add three more letters?

Sorry, didn't keep track of that game so didn't know. Guess I'll give you a pass then. I'll have my eye on you though.

Maybe we shouldn't discuss hemalurgy within a topic about Lifeless Sex Slaves. It's already a risky subject matter but it seems we are now getting dangerously close to devolving into innuendos.

Yes, Elsa must be rather full of herself to think she needs 8 pages for an introduction. A bit presumptuous I'd say.

Yup, I think you guys broke her. You happy now?

Yeah, I'm just going to assume you are ghostblood this time Joe

What was the argument about? I know from experience wild pigs won't stoop to arguing unless it's a worthy topic.Btw, "too" is misspelled in your signature

It's a sort of role playing game we play on the forum. They are variations on the Mafia style game where you have a village or group of people (the innocents) who know nothing about each other's roles and a small group of villains (the Mafia) who know who each other are. At the start of the game each player is secretly assigned a role affiliated with one of these teams. The game has two alternating phases: "night", during which the mafia may covertly "murder" an innocent, and "day", in which surviving players debate the identities of the mafiosi and vote to eliminate a suspect. Play continues until all of the mafia has been eliminated, or until the mafia outnumbers the innocents.Each game we play on here is set on one of the worlds from Brandon's books and the roles are related to magical powers or devices from said book. There is a game going on right now based on Nalthis (Warbreaker) you can look at to see how things work: http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/7247-game-4-colours-of-war/?p=119660 The sign ups for the next game, which is set on Roshar (Stormlight Archives), just started yesterday: http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/7960-game-5-noble-secrets/?p=133911

While the mythbusters are entertaining, they don't exactly follow proper scientific methods most of the time so not sure I'd take them as the last word on if something is possible.Edit: Not that I believe hypnosis could really change someone's eye color of course

Not quite done with the last game but sure, why not? This looks like it could be interesting. I'll be the king ... The GM is the king, huh? Ok, then I'll be the King's Wit. ... What was that about a droid? ... You have a hemorrhoid? ... Fine, yeah, I know. I can't secretly be Hoid. How about... ... What? I had no intention of saying anything about a tattooed bridgeman. You're really taking all the fun out of this you know. ... Well if I have to be boring, I'll be Sebarial's Ryshadium groom. Since the storming thing is completely self sufficient, tries to bite me anytime I get near it, and Sebarial never rides to battle anyway, I essentially sit around doing nothing most of the time. ... Oh right, a name. Guess I'll be Awes this time. That's pronounced like the Wizard. ... What do you mean that's the wrong book? ... No, not Gandolf the wizard. How would Awes ever be pronounced like Gandolf? I mean ruby slippers, flying monkeys, yellow brick road... You know? That Wizard. ... Well yes, I could have just said it's pronounced like Oz but that's kind of a boring way of stating it isn't it? ... Maybe I like being Cryptic. Boom! See what I did there? Eh?... Eh?... ... Fine, have no sense of humor. That's everything right? ... Okay then, until next week.

done

I don't think she was confused about what the cosmere is but rather the point of the comment, as am I. In the context of the other posts on the page, I'm not sure what point Asajet was trying to make.

Kobold, at the rate you are going, I suspect you will be giving swimmingly a run for his money in a couple months.

I gotta admit, I'm a little sad the writeup didn't include mention of a certain late night snack.

I reread my favorite books all the time. I know exactly what's going to happen but I still enjoy reading them and the character's reaction to big twists. I kinda view reading theories in the same way. If I don't enjoy the book due to having a few hints prior to reading it, it wasn't worth my time anyway. Yes, theories can sometimes spoil the wow factor and I definitely don't want to know actual spoilers prior to reading a book but I don't feel like it is a detriment to the experience. The countless hours of enjoyment you get while creating and reading theories far outshines that one moment of surprise in my opinion.
