Pardon me if this comes off as rude, as that is not my intention. I just want to keep focused.

You allege:
...an AS can lie if she couches it in sarcasm...

I ask you to support that statement. Can you describe a hypothetical situation in which the ability to use sarcasm could be deliberately used to lie?

Sarcasm is one thing Ryan - 06/12/2009 06:43:12 PM 1053 Views
I disagree darius_sedai - 06/12/2009 06:51:27 PM 1009 Views
RJ has said they're allowed to be sarcastic TheCrownless - 06/12/2009 07:07:32 PM 970 Views
How does that jive with the Oaths? darius_sedai - 06/12/2009 07:13:21 PM 1012 Views
Good point, but in that same book Tamra said that Gitara didn't say anything before dying *NM* Deadsy - 06/12/2009 07:53:31 PM 467 Views

The Oaths focus on INTENT beetnemesis - 06/12/2009 10:01:27 PM 968 Views
None of what you describe is an Oath ingrained into your bones. darius_sedai - 07/12/2009 01:52:49 AM 834 Views
It's ENTIRELY about self-rationalization Nameless Ashaman - 07/12/2009 03:59:00 AM 818 Views
^This. *NM* Nate - 07/12/2009 08:23:27 AM 450 Views
Because it isn't a lie DomA - 06/12/2009 07:44:29 PM 980 Views
I understand this, I'm not arguing that an AS should not be able to be sarcastic darius_sedai - 06/12/2009 08:08:15 PM 962 Views
Verin didn't say it sarcastically. Darth_Katie - 06/12/2009 08:11:31 PM 808 Views
Really? I never would have known that without you darius_sedai - 06/12/2009 08:39:56 PM 897 Views

The sarcasm was for him repeating himself to her. The "remember" is the part she's refering to. Onarishma - 07/12/2009 10:15:06 AM 773 Views
That's why I think this example of sarcasm works as opposed to Cadsuane who makes a false statement darius_sedai - 07/12/2009 03:17:52 PM 844 Views
sarcasm is sarcasm. In both instances their is technically a lie. Onarishma - 07/12/2009 11:28:02 PM 790 Views
Not at all the case darius_sedai - 07/12/2009 11:58:42 PM 882 Views
Do you really believe he waited till the last minute to tell Seonid? Onarishma - 14/12/2009 01:32:37 PM 956 Views
That's the whole point of her being able to say what she did! darius_sedai - 14/12/2009 04:05:24 PM 733 Views
What about the Sheriam thing? Legolas - 07/12/2009 01:49:32 PM 866 Views
Re: What about the Sheriam thing? DomA - 07/12/2009 02:15:25 PM 746 Views
But surely an Aes Sedai can answer a question she hasn't fully heard yet. Legolas - 07/12/2009 03:06:34 PM 981 Views
I actually don't take it as proof. Nameless Ashaman - 07/12/2009 09:00:58 PM 808 Views
Yeah, I thought about that possibility too... Legolas - 07/12/2009 10:21:16 PM 1100 Views

It's obviously meant to be sarcasm, I just don't like darius_sedai - 06/12/2009 07:18:40 PM 799 Views
Here is what RJ said about it Etzel - 06/12/2009 07:41:18 PM 959 Views
Well I have to say I think RJ made the wrong call with this one *NM* darius_sedai - 06/12/2009 07:43:47 PM 412 Views
Like my momma used to say... Mat_Cauthon33 - 06/12/2009 11:27:22 PM 842 Views
Your momma is a wise woman. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/12/2009 03:14:27 PM 752 Views
Agreed. johnnymack - 07/12/2009 01:45:39 AM 755 Views
You can already drive a truck through the oaths. Does this one additional tiny gap really matter? Nameless Ashaman - 07/12/2009 04:07:16 AM 792 Views

what do you think a RL lie detector would tell in this case? redhand - 07/12/2009 12:27:07 PM 756 Views
in RL you would get warned by the investigator to cooperate AgentOrange - 07/12/2009 01:04:33 PM 778 Views
But how would the machine reading indicate? redhand - 07/12/2009 07:04:22 PM 787 Views
Usually you're s'possed to answer with a yes or no. It's easy to tell when you're evasive AgentOrange - 09/12/2009 10:46:58 PM 818 Views
Where's the problem? Shadowkiller - 09/12/2009 04:18:40 PM 712 Views
It's in the way the Oath is worded darius_sedai - 09/12/2009 05:14:39 PM 773 Views

See the Cadsuane quote, but I'll give you another one darius_sedai - 09/12/2009 06:15:32 PM 984 Views
PS You misread my original quote darius_sedai - 09/12/2009 11:00:56 PM 716 Views
You're so right. My fault. *NM* Shadowkiller - 10/12/2009 12:57:29 AM 702 Views

Completely agree darius_sedai - 10/12/2009 01:23:36 AM 805 Views
Why do you think she *had* noticed the Aiel? *NM* Lord Haart - 14/12/2009 02:02:24 PM 348 Views
because she arrived with Rand and dozens of Maidens, darius_sedai - 15/12/2009 01:02:43 AM 746 Views
