Dude, I can't believe you think this. So you think that RJ was putting in a falsehood about female strength to show how inexperienced Elayne is? That is mad IMO.

Dude, are you thinking before you're typing? It isn't a falsehood. It is RJ ensuring that Elayne doesn't have information that is over and above what she should know, given her experience.

For example, the Aes Sedai think Sharina is as strong as a woman can get. We know this isn't true. Is RJ making the Aes Sedai lie, or is he making them say things based on their experience?


How do you equate sneaking up and shielding someone, with Egwene having the Power to match two strong women directly? What happened when Nynaeve got free... the two linked Sisters lost. That's what Aviendha was saying, and Nynaeve at least, proved it.


And how did they lose the duel? Because Nynaeve convinced the Kin to help her. She was helpless before that. If you seriously think wouldn't have been able to break a shield that is of total strength 30 at most, then I don't know what to say to you. Continue in your delusions, I guess.

Maria's answer to question 20 is ground-breaking! Logain - 10/06/2010 07:36:40 PM 1401 Views
No, it merely means that the Bell Curve does not refer to absolute strength... Shannow - 10/06/2010 07:42:31 PM 1231 Views
See the question again man! fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 07:48:57 PM 1207 Views
That contradicts your assertion that Moiraine is stronger than the average woman... Shannow - 10/06/2010 07:50:11 PM 1288 Views
How? fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 07:54:41 PM 1225 Views
I need to re-evaluate nothing! fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 07:46:20 PM 1229 Views
Think logically for a moment... Shannow - 10/06/2010 07:49:10 PM 1053 Views
Who said Egwene is twice as strong as Moiraine? fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 07:52:27 PM 1353 Views

RJ writes that Amys cannot hold Egwene. BS writes that Barasene can. Who are you gonna believe? Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:31:35 PM 1031 Views
It wasn't BS... both were RJ! fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:41:54 PM 1145 Views
In that case, there is no problem... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:45:05 PM 1261 Views
But that isn't what the text says... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:57:42 PM 988 Views
How can Egwene be strong enough to overcome Katerine and Silviana together then? Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:07:36 PM 1274 Views
She also says Egwene is Aes Sedai in the same sentence... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 09:25:16 PM 1257 Views
Yeah, both were RJ Sidious - 10/06/2010 08:49:13 PM 1103 Views

Here's what is clear: Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:02:41 PM 1098 Views
IMO it's easy to disprove Sidious - 10/06/2010 09:22:23 PM 1076 Views

Thought on this darius_sedai - 13/06/2010 01:09:29 PM 1035 Views
yet 4 women can still hold Rand in LoC ... he can't break the Shield until it's down to 3 darius_sedai - 13/06/2010 12:47:43 PM 924 Views
Have to agree with Sidious on this point darius_sedai - 11/06/2010 02:49:58 AM 1049 Views
That was kind of my point... fionwe1987 - 11/06/2010 12:19:23 PM 770 Views
of course Katerine would have complained darius_sedai - 12/06/2010 12:53:31 PM 1158 Views

You are... fionwe1987 - 17/06/2010 04:32:47 AM 1278 Views
Maria's other answer adresses this... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:14:54 PM 953 Views
Then one Aes Sedai cannot shield her. But one did. fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:16:41 PM 1059 Views
You can be much weaker than someone, and hold them shielded, if they are already cut off... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:19:15 PM 1060 Views
But, if you are much stronger, you can break that shield... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:22:25 PM 1050 Views
Easy... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:24:59 PM 1017 Views
What has that got to do with it? fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:32:56 PM 1202 Views
Amys is not LESS than half of Egwene's strength. You cannot hold someone if you are LESS than half.. Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:47:41 PM 1124 Views
Amys is as strong as Moiraine, at the most one level lower. Barasine is weaker than Katarine, who... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 09:00:26 PM 1237 Views
I can agree with that. Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:09:07 PM 1005 Views
How can you agree with it? Sidious - 10/06/2010 09:13:55 PM 1209 Views

Rand seems to shield Egwene and Elayne TOGETHER, pretty easily... Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:54:03 PM 1646 Views
That's fairly simple, actually... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 10:08:53 PM 1222 Views
Nope. Rand was also cut off from the Source when he broke a shield held by 3 Aes Sedai... Shannow - 10/06/2010 11:18:41 PM 1204 Views
Because that channeler is much stronger? I'm not getting your confusion here. *NM* fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 11:27:31 PM 566 Views
Your Aes Sedai are close to the average woman in strength, right... Shannow - 10/06/2010 11:42:01 PM 1289 Views
You are making a couple of mistakes darius_sedai - 13/06/2010 02:28:41 PM 1117 Views
You're missing an important point... fionwe1987 - 14/06/2010 11:10:55 PM 1083 Views
Yes, what do you mean? You are actually proving our point... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:10:50 PM 954 Views
No, here's the quote: I hate having to pull out my books with their yellowed pages... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:01:54 PM 1028 Views
Why would she need surprise against two? That was against five of them... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:04:57 PM 1042 Views
That makes no sense whatsoever... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:06:53 PM 1017 Views

We were speaking about Maria giving a RAFO on the topic, not Sanderson. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 13/06/2010 12:05:17 AM 585 Views
Actually she said "No"... *NM* Etzel - 13/06/2010 01:06:18 AM 685 Views
I'll rephrase then. It was about Maria saying that she considered giving a RAFO on the question. TaskmasterJack - 13/06/2010 01:44:19 AM 1053 Views
Yeah, sorry for the rolly-eyed smiley! Was a bit mean... Etzel - 13/06/2010 09:19:13 AM 1075 Views
I agree with Jack and Sidious and not with you. Tom - 11/06/2010 03:20:30 PM 1163 Views

I agree. I think she is saving the good stuff for the encyclopedia. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/06/2010 04:17:07 PM 552 Views
Yeah. I do think she's taking advantage of these poor saps, though. callandor1000 - 17/06/2010 03:52:33 PM 1589 Views
