Well... aerocontrols Send a noteboard - 28/10/2021 09:31:19 PM

But I was just adding the 5th or so example of these Ter'angreal oath-y / compel-ly things to demonstrate the premise is flawed. That said it makes me question Ishmael‘s competence. He was a philosophy major, did he never have a logic class or anything that tested analytical abilities when he created his variant three oaths?


He created a secret society inside a society of Literal Genies whose main schtick is twisting oaths, and then he created an Oath that's super easy to break in spirit. Not buying that either.

Bad writing, I say!

Hollywood has the best moral compass, because it has compassion.

Well you can always watch the Cowboy Bebop live action, since it airs the same day *NM* Roland00 - 28/10/2021 07:23:17 PM 78 Views
It's going to be the Woke of Time, you'll see *NM* Tom - 28/10/2021 10:23:48 PM 91 Views
The video of Rafe Judkins commenting on the trailer is also worth watching. Legolas - 27/10/2021 09:19:11 PM 281 Views
Yeah he definitely seems very knowledgeable about the series fionwe1987 - 27/10/2021 09:40:43 PM 202 Views
Yes. Most of the changes he talks about are good for the medium transition AgentApple - 28/10/2021 10:17:23 AM 187 Views
I liked him way back on Survivor. I guess it's good he didn't win AgentApple - 28/10/2021 10:18:44 AM 176 Views
The truncated Third Oath is just sloppy whatever the justification. damookster - 28/10/2021 06:56:54 PM 289 Views
Trailers truncate. That's nothing new. *NM* fionwe1987 - 28/10/2021 07:15:24 PM 94 Views

True! Roland00 - 28/10/2021 09:16:14 PM 213 Views
He also created the original 3 Oaths damookster - 28/10/2021 09:28:30 PM 262 Views
Well... aerocontrols - 28/10/2021 09:31:19 PM 248 Views
Umm isn't the reason for the wording obvious? fionwe1987 - 28/10/2021 10:01:39 PM 194 Views
Though clever, this explanation isn't very satisfying. Narg - 29/10/2021 12:00:17 AM 216 Views
I don't think so aerocontrols - 29/10/2021 01:26:46 AM 190 Views
Yeah, that was silly... Legolas - 28/10/2021 07:50:47 PM 180 Views
I'm most concerned by the Aes Sedai being burned at the stake by white cloaks. Narg - 28/10/2021 11:47:51 PM 259 Views
