Re: An annoying gateway error. Skeeve the Great Send a noteboard - 24/12/2010 06:31:38 PM
I may be wrong on this, but I thought that the biggest problem with the gholam going through the gateway is that the gholam acts like Mat's medallion and stops the weaves. In this case, it shouldn't be able to go through any kind of gateway but rather destroy the weave for the gateway upon touching it.


The gateway itself is not a weave but a hole in the space. Gholam wasn't touching the weave at all. The same way, Mat wasn't touching gateways when he was travelling through it with Rand in earlier books.

Yes, RJ confirmed that Shadowspawn can't survive gateways. *NM* Lord Haart - 24/12/2010 07:39:02 PM 518 Views
And then BS confirmed that gholam are "more perfected" Shadowspawn which can. *NM* moratcorlm - 24/12/2010 08:35:34 PM 519 Views
Read the post I responded too. I know that. Lord Haart - 26/12/2010 11:58:40 AM 1091 Views
Why would them not being able to survive a gateway be a problem? DREWRULESWOT! - 26/01/2011 05:36:09 AM 914 Views

They prepared a place, and it just happened to be within walking distance of the attack? rAndy aL - 25/12/2010 09:44:34 AM 1067 Views
Please re-read the chapter. It expalins a lot. Skeeve the Great - 25/12/2010 04:05:50 PM 1074 Views
Your quote shows what happened. rAndy aL - 26/12/2010 05:33:44 AM 1045 Views
Likely picked from a handful of pre-determined locations based on where and when the attack occurred darius_sedai - 31/12/2010 08:47:20 PM 1049 Views
Perhaps, but I don't think so. ˥ɐ ʎpu∀ɹ - 01/01/2011 01:19:12 AM 884 Views
Not realty. Caemlyn is huge by the standards of the time but realistically it's tiny darius_sedai - 01/01/2011 06:05:06 AM 915 Views
The sizes I proposed are not huge (well, they would be by standards in the middle ages but not now) ˥ɐ ʎpu∀ɹ - 04/01/2011 06:37:50 AM 850 Views
I believe Caemlyn is less than 300k people .... That's what .05% the size of London? darius_sedai - 30/01/2011 06:02:50 PM 896 Views
You aren't seriously comparing modern population densities to medieval ones, are you? *NM* Ghavrel - 30/01/2011 09:23:57 PM 490 Views
Of course not darius_sedai - 30/01/2011 09:30:47 PM 924 Views
That would be an error if it hadn't been Skimming (the platform and what not) they were using. Chas - 25/12/2010 02:29:39 AM 970 Views
It is an error because they opened a skimming gateway to the house (from the skimming place) rAndy aL - 25/12/2010 09:47:08 AM 1032 Views

I'm confused now as to what you're arguing. They knew the location of the house. Chas - 26/12/2010 08:54:17 PM 949 Views
You need to know more than just where you are going rAndy aL - 27/12/2010 06:59:21 AM 1037 Views
Please find me a supporting quote in one of the books. Chas - 27/12/2010 12:48:45 PM 990 Views

Well, from Encyclopaedia WOT, and aCoS rAndy aL - 28/12/2010 01:02:42 AM 1144 Views
I stand corrected. Though I will say that the uses in the books don't match the definition. Chas - 28/12/2010 02:17:43 PM 1018 Views
