Not my fault if the books prove you wrong Shannow Send a noteboard - 04/06/2010 01:41:00 PM
I'm not even going to bother responding further to you since you continue to quote the text incorrectly.


Are you denying that Egwene stated that the only sister in Salidar who could match one of the Forsaken was Nynaeve?

Are you denying that the text says Nynaeve's potential is a fire compared to Egwene's candle?

Are you denying that Nynaeve grew SIGNIFICANTLY in strength beyond the point in time when she matched Moghedien in book 4?

Your problem is that you nitpick about syntax and exact quotes when yet can't see the bigger picture.

You, my friend, cannot see the wood for the trees.

I don't know. Elayne knows how strong a woman needs to be in order to activate the Bowl. darius_sedai - 31/05/2010 07:51:08 PM 712 Views
Egwene plus Aviendha roughly equal Lanfaer. And yet Lanfear isn't close to double Nynaeve's strength Shannow - 31/05/2010 09:07:06 PM 754 Views
Egwene and Aviendha combined in TFoH (when Avi had been channeling for only a few months) darius_sedai - 31/05/2010 09:22:17 PM 752 Views
We've done this so many times. Even I have lost the strength for it. What can I still muster... Shannow - 31/05/2010 09:38:24 PM 670 Views
again with the interpretive quoting darius_sedai - 31/05/2010 11:05:58 PM 701 Views
Individual interpretation is all we've got really Sidious - 01/06/2010 06:32:05 PM 646 Views
agreed, sort of darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 12:57:00 PM 658 Views
Consider this... Shannow - 04/06/2010 01:21:43 PM 625 Views
You continue to translate things. That is NOT how the quote reads darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 01:30:43 PM 418 Views
Not my fault if the books prove you wrong Shannow - 04/06/2010 01:41:00 PM 552 Views
I'm denying that you have a clue darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 01:51:14 PM 595 Views
Bonfire next to a candle. I rest my case. Shannow - 04/06/2010 01:53:59 PM 469 Views
then Nynaeve is the Creator darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 02:03:27 PM 586 Views
Estimating potential is exact, fragmentary historical notes are not. And RJ disproves your point.. Shannow - 04/06/2010 02:57:32 PM 684 Views
The books disagree with this darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 03:24:46 PM 513 Views
Right, NOW we're getting somewhere... Shannow - 04/06/2010 03:57:32 PM 635 Views
You are hilarious darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 04:06:37 PM 429 Views
Close the door on your way out... Shannow - 04/06/2010 04:21:11 PM 463 Views
no I just refuse to bother with a jackass who doesn't know the text well enough to debate *NM* darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 10:35:09 PM 281 Views
Re: agreed, sort of Sidious - 04/06/2010 04:46:59 PM 1317 Views
Reminds me of some of our ancient debates... Shannow - 04/06/2010 05:03:05 PM 563 Views
this doesn't square in any way with Bell Curve though darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 10:33:04 PM 689 Views
Re: this doesn't square in any way with Bell Curve though Sidious - 04/06/2010 10:56:01 PM 578 Views
It's all good, I do respect your thoughts on this BTW darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 11:28:45 PM 530 Views
No, Rand was not stronger than the male Forsaken at the start of tSR... Shannow - 01/06/2010 09:27:47 AM 580 Views
Aginor burned out attempting to use the Eye, which Rand managed to do without burning out *NM* darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 12:06:01 PM 312 Views
The Eye was just a source of the Power - like a well, just bigger. Shannow - 01/06/2010 12:17:29 PM 591 Views
nope darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 12:52:46 PM 594 Views
You know that is not correct... Shannow - 01/06/2010 01:30:35 PM 626 Views
right or wrong it's in the text! darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 01:47:35 PM 702 Views
Re: I don't know. Elayne knows how strong a woman needs to be in order to activate the Bowl. DomA - 01/06/2010 02:18:38 AM 686 Views
I'm not trying to say that Nynaeve isn't significantly stronger darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 12:44:20 PM 735 Views
If 3 sisters can hold you, it probaly means you are as strong as 4 sisters... Shannow - 01/06/2010 06:37:01 PM 489 Views

Sidenote: What's with Elayne dumping people into the river? beetnemesis - 31/05/2010 06:22:26 PM 520 Views
Not Elayne, Egwene in Cairhien. She went to meet the Windfinder and got kicked out. Wasn't awesome *NM* Lordling - 31/05/2010 07:13:25 PM 390 Views

I agree that it's probably some kind of max height you can lift an object darius_sedai - 31/05/2010 09:25:25 PM 513 Views
I think lifting people on flows of air is much like weaving bridges. FanEditor10 - 01/06/2010 07:42:59 AM 670 Views
I think you are correct actually. darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 12:53:21 PM 709 Views
Yes. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/06/2010 08:43:33 PM 461 Views
My own thougth was off base! darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 12:54:19 PM 541 Views
I'm pretty convinced that 'strength' really refers to your skill and experience. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/06/2010 08:35:16 PM 624 Views
Strength is a touchy word in this case... FanEditor10 - 03/06/2010 07:31:19 AM 603 Views
Re: Strength is a touchy word in this case... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 04/06/2010 04:52:33 PM 442 Views
