He seems to indicate that RAFO doesn't necessarily mean we'll ever get an answer, though. Legolas Send a noteboard - 23/11/2009 03:43:26 PM
"RAFO" has usually been interpreted as "this will be cleared up in a later book so I won't spoil it here", but in that interview Sanderson sometimes seems to use it as "this will not be cleared up any further, you'll have to work out an answer for yourself based on the information you've been given, and won't ever know what RJ thought about it".

Some interesting new RAFOs and information from BS Etzel - 23/11/2009 12:13:37 PM 3257 Views
Thanks! I hadn't made the connection between Rand's paranoya and the dagger wound. *NM* RandAllThor - 23/11/2009 12:50:42 PM 1361 Views

Thank you.... I have a feeling that we haven't see the last of Elaida after Brandon's recent comment Matrimony Cauthon - 23/11/2009 07:33:24 PM 1373 Views
Yeah, good work... I tried to find that thread but I couldn't... it must have been on wotmania *NM* Matrimony Cauthon - 23/11/2009 07:39:21 PM 781 Views
Yeah, I remember that! *NM* Etzel - 23/11/2009 06:33:38 PM 768 Views
Very interesting read, thanks Tam! *NM* Dodge - 23/11/2009 01:17:06 PM 1009 Views
Very interesting, but they wasted a lot of time on questions they knew would be RAFO. Tom - 23/11/2009 02:17:47 PM 1673 Views
I think, though... Etzel - 23/11/2009 02:33:29 PM 1590 Views

I like that idea...and I've explored it before... Shannow - 23/11/2009 06:07:29 PM 1478 Views
It could in any case... Etzel - 23/11/2009 06:15:28 PM 1376 Views

the details of the DO and Creator have never interested me much kcf - 23/11/2009 04:06:20 PM 1523 Views
Agreed... Etzel - 23/11/2009 04:29:13 PM 1579 Views
I like the Padan Fain questions. Also, Lanfear / Cyndane discussion was exciting. Logain - 23/11/2009 05:12:14 PM 2372 Views

that really wouldn't work kcf - 23/11/2009 06:05:43 PM 1379 Views
The Lanfear/Cyndane stuff is at least good - a few theories killed here kcf - 23/11/2009 05:20:47 PM 1763 Views
I'm convinced Moiraine's going to enjoy a Gandalf effect with her strength... Shannow - 23/11/2009 05:49:07 PM 1831 Views
I'm also entertaining that idea Sidious - 23/11/2009 06:23:30 PM 1487 Views
Hmm, but how? Etzel - 23/11/2009 06:26:00 PM 1480 Views

I have no idea Sidious - 23/11/2009 06:33:34 PM 1305 Views
I think... Etzel - 23/11/2009 06:51:41 PM 1468 Views
I'm not going to argue the theory, but, Moiraine won't give a crap about deference after her ordeal. *NM* Deadsy - 23/11/2009 09:13:30 PM 743 Views
I agree to some extent Logain - 23/11/2009 10:23:03 PM 1285 Views
Says who? Sidious - 24/11/2009 07:02:30 AM 1259 Views
Moiraine has always been somewhat of a rebel, and what you say is sort of in agreement Deadsy - 24/11/2009 07:55:16 AM 1430 Views
Re: I'm also entertaining that idea darius_sedai - 30/11/2009 12:06:52 AM 1373 Views
This would be... funny. And Mat already said he'd probably save Lanfear *NM* Deadsy - 23/11/2009 09:12:46 PM 725 Views
That makes one wonder... Legolas - 23/11/2009 11:57:55 PM 1443 Views

If stilling is Healed, you come back at about 1/3rd of your former strength... Shannow - 23/11/2009 06:18:20 PM 1394 Views
Not ot mention, that's only if you're healed by someone of the same gender. *NM* Marshall - 23/11/2009 08:44:14 PM 641 Views

What if Lanfear's mind was transmigrated, but not her soul? RugbyPlayingAshaman - 23/11/2009 08:30:40 PM 1402 Views
It seems that Lanfear may have been excluded as a candidate for killing Asmodean Matrimony Cauthon - 23/11/2009 08:02:48 PM 1612 Views
The Finns Killed Asmodean? Tamyrlin - 23/11/2009 08:39:08 PM 2222 Views
But... Etzel - 23/11/2009 08:52:55 PM 1339 Views
I don't think is beyond the realm of possibility, but did Lanfear actually have any wishes left? Matrimony Cauthon - 23/11/2009 08:53:38 PM 1283 Views
