I do not recall seeing any restriction of that kind on Skimming. You do not have to be 'very familiar' with the place you are going to - you just have to know where you want to go.
Yeah, didn't Rand skim to Illian, where he had never been before? I can't recall what method he used, and I don't have the books handy.
Also, the Kin could have skimmed either way. i.e. they could have opened the gate in the house to a place they knew, or they could have skimmed from a place they knew to the house.
An annoying gateway error.

Yes, RJ confirmed that Shadowspawn can't survive gateways. *NM*

"They had not known where-or if-the gholam would attack him"

They prepared a place, and it just happened to be within walking distance of the attack?

Please re-read the chapter. It expalins a lot.

Likely picked from a handful of pre-determined locations based on where and when the attack occurred

Perhaps, but I don't think so.

Not realty. Caemlyn is huge by the standards of the time but realistically it's tiny

The sizes I proposed are not huge (well, they would be by standards in the middle ages but not now)

I believe Caemlyn is less than 300k people .... That's what .05% the size of London?

You aren't seriously comparing modern population densities to medieval ones, are you? *NM*

That would be an error if it hadn't been Skimming (the platform and what not) they were using.

It is an error because they opened a skimming gateway to the house (from the skimming place)

I'm confused now as to what you're arguing. They knew the location of the house.

You need to know more than just where you are going

I stand corrected. Though I will say that the uses in the books don't match the definition.
