really? miscommunication seems to be woven into just about every sentence darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 08/01/2010 04:53:48 AM
at how poorly it has been executed so far. Then you have the very deus ex machina end to Egwene's arc. Unfortunately at this point we will never know if RJ had probably intended it that way or not. (for the record, I liked tGS a lot so I'm gonna assume that was RJ doing it)

Rugbyplayingashaman pretty much hit the nail on the head. It amazes me at how weirdly the characters behave. Makes me wonder why people care about stuff like who killed whom when 2 friends act as if they've never met before.

-shrug-


IMO anyway! Seems like every POV we've had shows how little the character knows about the other characters actions/intentions!

Is Rand logical when he estimates female danger? Sidious - 07/01/2010 03:34:05 PM 1818 Views
Basically you have to be ready for anything! darius_sedai - 07/01/2010 03:45:31 PM 1121 Views
Yep. Send Daigian in Linked with 12 of her buddies (one of whom is holding an angreal) & hes screwed RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/01/2010 05:19:03 PM 1376 Views
Miscommunication seems to be a major theme of the series *NM* darius_sedai - 07/01/2010 07:17:16 PM 572 Views
As well as missed opportunities. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/01/2010 09:27:56 PM 1063 Views
yes, the Amyrlin story line could have been wrapped up much earlier! darius_sedai - 07/01/2010 09:55:30 PM 1187 Views
Yeah, I really wish his vision had been pushed. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/01/2010 10:16:15 PM 991 Views

Thanks for pointing to that Taim incident... its another proof... fionwe1987 - 07/01/2010 04:15:33 PM 1150 Views
I always like to think that Egwene, Elayne and Aviendha Linked can match Rand. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/01/2010 05:26:35 PM 1062 Views
Those three... fionwe1987 - 07/01/2010 05:35:24 PM 1022 Views
I think this is probably close darius_sedai - 07/01/2010 07:19:40 PM 1185 Views

it's about EFFECTIVE strength Fionwe (jk) darius_sedai - 07/01/2010 10:05:48 PM 956 Views
I don't think they were that bad back then, but still... fionwe1987 - 07/01/2010 10:11:46 PM 1059 Views
and he's gone out of his way IMO to show that it's a stupid darius_sedai - 07/01/2010 10:41:03 PM 1126 Views
Re: I don't think they were that bad back then, but still... Sidious - 08/01/2010 11:38:48 AM 968 Views
I'd actually go with Elayne in matters of battle. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 08/01/2010 02:47:34 PM 1092 Views
Wow, I wasn't expecting that Sidious - 08/01/2010 02:55:53 PM 1163 Views
I'm not too impressed with the Forsaken so far. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 08/01/2010 03:30:43 PM 965 Views
I'm tempted to go with Taim too, but... fionwe1987 - 08/01/2010 04:25:52 PM 1029 Views
If Elayne had wanted Taim dead, he and his minions would have been dead darius_sedai - 08/01/2010 05:41:29 PM 1111 Views
The reverse would be true too, though... fionwe1987 - 08/01/2010 05:50:02 PM 976 Views
But she just heard Taim say to basically stand down darius_sedai - 08/01/2010 06:05:43 PM 1067 Views
But... fionwe1987 - 08/01/2010 08:53:11 PM 1246 Views
Ah but Elayne also knew they knew Rand wouldn't allow it darius_sedai - 08/01/2010 10:40:45 PM 1098 Views
That whole lack of communication thing made my eye twitch. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 08/01/2010 11:00:25 PM 1114 Views

Re: Is Rand logical when he estimates female danger? RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/01/2010 05:13:48 PM 977 Views
I think he is illogical towards all danger, regardless of gender. amirebram - 07/01/2010 06:39:37 PM 992 Views
Do fat kids run marathons? No. And no Rand isn't logical when he estimates female danger. *NM* callandor1000 - 07/01/2010 06:44:08 PM 625 Views
It's all kind of irrelevant. Cannoli - 08/01/2010 11:28:46 PM 1286 Views
