I did not say all Aes Sedai are stupid, I said all WT Aes Sedai are stupid. Variant Send a noteboard - 10/12/2010 09:19:52 AM
Let's face it. They've never been all that bright, but recently their intelligence has been dumb down to such absurd levels to make Egwene look good. I understand the plot/writing necessity of it (or perhaps it was unintentional), I'm just stating that the WT Aes Sedai are stupid, which evidently, they are.

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 1245 Views
I think the greens should have been on Nynaeve's side as well LadyLorraine - 08/12/2010 06:18:16 PM 1348 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 910 Views

Strength was "prized" in the AoL ... but lack of strength was not a negative darius_sedai - 12/12/2010 01:41:08 AM 1218 Views
The test is stupid and it was about time someone pointed it out Zeratul - 07/12/2010 10:29:38 PM 1238 Views

Status is not an end in itself. *NM* Chas - 07/12/2010 11:52:37 PM 623 Views
They're not really stupid... DomA - 08/12/2010 01:00:20 AM 1345 Views
Not saying they are. It's just that most AS that we've come across Chas - 08/12/2010 02:20:05 AM 1048 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 1305 Views
yeah because that's so realistic Sidious - 08/12/2010 12:17:29 PM 1243 Views
Egwene had everything handed to her on a silver platter. Variant - 08/12/2010 11:50:17 PM 1214 Views

minor disagreement darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 05:27:51 PM 1349 Views
Yes, but you can be not-panicked and not calm of body LadyLorraine - 08/12/2010 06:38:56 PM 1182 Views
not really the same thing as what the AS are getting at though darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 09:02:05 PM 1825 Views
that's retarded, imo LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 12:21:27 AM 1342 Views
About Elaida... Zeratul - 09/12/2010 12:29:21 PM 1333 Views
...no wonder the Aes Sedai are floundering LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 01:43:42 PM 1069 Views
Oh it's totally stupid! darius_sedai - 09/12/2010 04:37:14 PM 1306 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 1250 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 1357 Views
hmm. curse smarming, then *NM* LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 07:47:26 PM 546 Views
As I recall... Fanatic-Templar - 10/12/2010 05:18:25 AM 1269 Views
Oh. Well, I'm sorry then. Fanatic-Templar - 08/12/2010 06:48:50 PM 1292 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 1052 Views
Yeah, but how does that work? Fanatic-Templar - 08/12/2010 10:24:35 PM 1195 Views
Somewhere in the sub-conscious they know what they're doing is important to them. Chas - 09/12/2010 12:20:47 AM 1323 Views
Even so, it wouldn't work. Fanatic-Templar - 09/12/2010 03:32:55 AM 1239 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 607 Views
Another headless chicken example. Chas - 09/12/2010 12:30:02 AM 1221 Views

Bah! As if an opinion on the test's validity can be wrong *NM* Sidious - 10/12/2010 04:39:14 AM 1384 Views
That's not what it's really about guttering flame - 10/12/2010 05:44:12 AM 1217 Views
