LoL - that discredits greatly the main post *NM* Nargs - 24/01/2011 04:27:45 PM 516 Views
No, it doesn't. It "discredits greatly" one of his points, not the main argument. *NM* *NM* Cynewulf - 24/01/2011 06:57:38 PM 511 Views

Sweated is a word. *NM* fionwe1987 - 24/01/2011 02:45:57 AM 492 Views
Is it? Would you ever write "I had sweated" or "having sweated for an hour?" *NM* newyorkersedai - 24/01/2011 11:17:04 PM 511 Views
No, because it is not a participle. ranagrande - 24/01/2011 11:36:12 PM 1086 Views
Sure it is moratcorlm - 25/01/2011 11:31:29 AM 1115 Views
No. I have written: I sweated a lot when I was in India. *NM* fionwe1987 - 25/01/2011 12:16:39 AM 496 Views

I really don't want to come off as a jerk, but really? WoT has never had good writing. Ghavrel - 26/01/2011 07:18:03 AM 935 Views
If you hate his writing so much then don't read the final book. *NM* everynametaken - 07/02/2011 03:39:43 AM 673 Views
