Re: *shrugs* Sidious Send a noteboard - 04/11/2012 07:12:21 AM
no point in arguing this further ... you have your agenda to prove and I just don't care about it. Lanfear is not as strong in the OP as Rand, she is as Effective. This is a very different thing. I don't actually care about your theories on strength, they don't make sense in any way to me, as clearly mine do not to you.

Of course Rand can hold more of the OP than Lanfear, but Lanfear is more deft with her weaving - thus you can equate the two. When Egwene judges Rand's strength she judges his effective strength. It's not like she linked with him and measured.

Who said Graendal v. M&C was a duel? She was simply willing to face them and was confident in her skill ... even knowing Cyndane was stronger than her.

And the alternative is standing there and dying.

You cannot prove any more than I can that Flinn drew all of the power of his circle. We have one brief second to see what is going on ... the rest is left to our imagination.

True, but I'd be interested to see who would be arrogant enough to use a part of their ability against the FS. Daigian didn't.

Cadsuane's commentary is typical of the STUPID AS hierarchy. Naturally she thinks Strength is the most important thing, she's an AS ... the author has pointed out through pretty much every other character in the series how flawed and silly this is.

Okay then...

Addressing problems with the Bell Curve Sidious - 31/10/2012 11:30:42 AM 1878 Views
Who said RJ created a 100 point scale? I always assumed we did to make this easier to follow darius_sedai - 31/10/2012 02:22:51 PM 1163 Views
One more point here darius_sedai - 31/10/2012 03:02:34 PM 1041 Views
I've think I've finally done it. I've solved the entire Curve. Daigian is the key... Shannow - 01/11/2012 09:20:57 AM 1335 Views
Did some playing with your numbers to make this work better darius_sedai - 01/11/2012 02:13:00 PM 1277 Views
The Mean and SD are set by Daigian's position. Your options are therefore not possible... Shannow - 02/11/2012 07:49:24 AM 1256 Views
Yet you have many more SD between the Mean and Lanfear than you do Morgase and the Mean darius_sedai - 02/11/2012 02:39:51 PM 1043 Views
I absolutely agree. The lower side of the curve MUST be intersected by zero after 1 SD... Shannow - 02/11/2012 03:03:52 PM 949 Views
I am not convinced Moiraine is the Mean. Merely 50% of Lanfear darius_sedai - 02/11/2012 04:23:57 PM 1133 Views
But on a Bell Curve the Mean IS 50% of Lanfear. You've just disproven your own contention. Shannow - 02/11/2012 04:40:31 PM 1015 Views
OMG no it is NOT! darius_sedai - 02/11/2012 05:16:36 PM 947 Views
I agree with that. But please honestly look at the math I presented. It disproves the Bell Curve. Shannow - 02/11/2012 05:24:41 PM 1245 Views
It doesn't matter that you think the BC is disproved. darius_sedai - 02/11/2012 06:07:19 PM 1062 Views
Confusing post... Shannow - 02/11/2012 06:30:40 PM 1140 Views
Dreadlord is essentially describing a lognormal distribution HousealThor - 02/11/2012 07:21:39 PM 990 Views
If you choose to ignore the author go right ahead. I just think you are wrong darius_sedai - 02/11/2012 09:05:14 PM 1155 Views
A non-linear 21 point scale is fine... Shannow - 02/11/2012 11:02:48 PM 1227 Views
I've been operating off of the scale I described for years darius_sedai - 02/11/2012 11:25:27 PM 1082 Views

I think it's about skill not strength darius_sedai - 03/11/2012 04:38:07 PM 904 Views
I think the number is about 10 Sidious - 03/11/2012 08:42:08 AM 1130 Views

I'll have to disagree with much of this Sidious - 03/11/2012 07:46:31 AM 1150 Views
Why do you always think Strength is the point darius_sedai - 03/11/2012 04:35:26 PM 892 Views
I don't - I merely appreciate it as a factor Sidious - 03/11/2012 04:48:24 PM 994 Views
0 Evidence? Cyndane v. Alivia is plenty of evidence EDIT with exact quote darius_sedai - 03/11/2012 06:17:39 PM 1064 Views
One other thing you have forgotten about darius_sedai - 03/11/2012 10:13:09 PM 988 Views
Your agenda blinds you to logic yet again...As I'll simply demonstrate with your example here... Shannow - 03/11/2012 11:08:13 PM 1057 Views
Nope, the only experience she has in reality is against Rand darius_sedai - 03/11/2012 11:09:54 PM 944 Views
Nonsense. Shannow - 03/11/2012 11:11:05 PM 1001 Views
Believe as you will darius_sedai - 03/11/2012 11:26:50 PM 1122 Views
That's a classic. Shannow - 04/11/2012 12:06:13 AM 1034 Views
You misquote on a regular basis and have no grasp of the timeline in the series darius_sedai - 04/11/2012 01:36:37 AM 898 Views
Hmm... Sidious - 04/11/2012 07:08:04 AM 1236 Views
stop getting all indignant ... I'm really not trying to be nasty to you darius_sedai - 04/11/2012 04:20:06 PM 1035 Views
Reply to your EDIT: I think YOU have a totally warped perspective, based on what you wish for. Shannow - 03/11/2012 11:16:29 PM 1009 Views
Funny that's exactly how I see your perspective darius_sedai - 03/11/2012 11:25:52 PM 994 Views
I don't need to interpret the following in any way other than the obvious to get the picture... Shannow - 04/11/2012 12:17:53 AM 2551 Views
as usual you miss that there is a timeline and strength growth throughout the series *NM* darius_sedai - 04/11/2012 01:47:41 AM 450 Views
