Even so, it wouldn't work. Fanatic-Templar Send a noteboard - 09/12/2010 03:32:55 AM
That would mean that the test only lets people through who allow their subconscious to override their conscious thought. Frankly, that's the opposite of what the test is allegedly supposed to test - the ability of women to keep themselves under control.

I think skill with Saidar is easy enough to judge as it's a simple matter to see the skill - 08/12/2010 05:37:27 PM 1494 Views
I think the greens should have been on Nynaeve's side as well - 08/12/2010 06:18:16 PM 1587 Views
Problem is they are Aes Sedai and thus more likley to be political rather than rational! *NM* - 08/12/2010 08:52:00 PM 1046 Views

They're not really stupid... - 08/12/2010 01:00:20 AM 1594 Views
They're constantly outsmarted by a teenage girl that has spent most of her life in a damn farm. - 08/12/2010 10:32:50 AM 1551 Views
yeah because that's so realistic - 08/12/2010 12:17:29 PM 1475 Views

minor disagreement - 08/12/2010 05:27:51 PM 1569 Views
Yes, but you can be not-panicked and not calm of body - 08/12/2010 06:38:56 PM 1434 Views
not really the same thing as what the AS are getting at though - 08/12/2010 09:02:05 PM 2045 Views
that's retarded, imo - 09/12/2010 12:21:27 AM 1596 Views
About Elaida... - 09/12/2010 12:29:21 PM 1567 Views

I think it has already been established that the purpose of the test is to ensure that - 08/12/2010 09:59:18 PM 1292 Views
Yeah, but how does that work? - 08/12/2010 10:24:35 PM 1440 Views
Somewhere in the sub-conscious they know what they're doing is important to them. - 09/12/2010 12:20:47 AM 1549 Views
Even so, it wouldn't work. - 09/12/2010 03:32:55 AM 1479 Views
