... Elaida also thought she could have been Amyrlin Seat if she had not decided to become the Tower's advisor in Andor, and she was Sitter for the Red when they deposed Siuan, so she clearly had significant political clout.

I think skill with Saidar is easy enough to judge as it's a simple matter to see the skill darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 05:37:27 PM 1369 Views
I think the greens should have been on Nynaeve's side as well LadyLorraine - 08/12/2010 06:18:16 PM 1479 Views
Problem is they are Aes Sedai and thus more likley to be political rather than rational! *NM* darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 08:52:00 PM 981 Views

Strength was "prized" in the AoL ... but lack of strength was not a negative darius_sedai - 12/12/2010 01:41:08 AM 1349 Views
The test is stupid and it was about time someone pointed it out Zeratul - 07/12/2010 10:29:38 PM 1367 Views

Status is not an end in itself. *NM* Chas - 07/12/2010 11:52:37 PM 676 Views
They're not really stupid... DomA - 08/12/2010 01:00:20 AM 1459 Views
Not saying they are. It's just that most AS that we've come across Chas - 08/12/2010 02:20:05 AM 1174 Views
They're constantly outsmarted by a teenage girl that has spent most of her life in a damn farm. Variant - 08/12/2010 10:32:50 AM 1429 Views
yeah because that's so realistic Sidious - 08/12/2010 12:17:29 PM 1357 Views
Egwene had everything handed to her on a silver platter. Variant - 08/12/2010 11:50:17 PM 1329 Views
Bah... DomA - 09/12/2010 10:56:24 AM 1473 Views
Nope, the Sitters were always stupid Zeratul - 09/12/2010 12:37:05 PM 1439 Views
I did not say all Aes Sedai are stupid, I said all WT Aes Sedai are stupid. Variant - 10/12/2010 09:19:52 AM 1426 Views

Re: You are not only wrong in your call, Sidious - 08/12/2010 09:13:37 AM 1689 Views
if that is the purpose of the test LadyLorraine - 08/12/2010 01:34:45 PM 1388 Views
minor disagreement darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 05:27:51 PM 1456 Views
Yes, but you can be not-panicked and not calm of body LadyLorraine - 08/12/2010 06:38:56 PM 1314 Views
not really the same thing as what the AS are getting at though darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 09:02:05 PM 1931 Views
that's retarded, imo LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 12:21:27 AM 1475 Views
About Elaida... Zeratul - 09/12/2010 12:29:21 PM 1457 Views
...no wonder the Aes Sedai are floundering LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 01:43:42 PM 1179 Views
Oh it's totally stupid! darius_sedai - 09/12/2010 04:37:14 PM 1419 Views
No I know why she took the job. I just don't understand why she got it LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 04:52:34 PM 1350 Views
I think Elaida just smarmed up at the right time, Morgase was very young then darius_sedai - 09/12/2010 05:52:29 PM 1484 Views
hmm. curse smarming, then *NM* LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 07:47:26 PM 596 Views

Oh. Well, I'm sorry then. Fanatic-Templar - 08/12/2010 06:48:50 PM 1428 Views
I think it has already been established that the purpose of the test is to ensure that Chas - 08/12/2010 09:59:18 PM 1174 Views
Yeah, but how does that work? Fanatic-Templar - 08/12/2010 10:24:35 PM 1317 Views
Somewhere in the sub-conscious they know what they're doing is important to them. Chas - 09/12/2010 12:20:47 AM 1442 Views
Even so, it wouldn't work. Fanatic-Templar - 09/12/2010 03:32:55 AM 1352 Views
I think if this thread has established anything it's that the test is severely flawed. *NM* Chas - 09/12/2010 09:24:48 PM 658 Views
Another headless chicken example. Chas - 09/12/2010 12:30:02 AM 1331 Views

One of those few times where I completely agree with Cannoli. Give over Sidious. You're wrong. fionwe1987 - 09/12/2010 09:55:20 PM 1356 Views
Bah! As if an opinion on the test's validity can be wrong *NM* Sidious - 10/12/2010 04:39:14 AM 1503 Views
That's not what it's really about guttering flame - 10/12/2010 05:44:12 AM 1322 Views
