Gawyn is incredibly irritating Yondaime Send a noteboard - 05/02/2010 01:55:40 AM
All of his 'knowledge' of Rand's death are based on rumors. Because the general public knows much better than people who are directly involved with the incident, who happen to be his close friends to boot. It always seemed to me that RJ made Gawyn behave this way for some plot-related reason that escapes me.
"Take the Gleeman!" Rand and Mat cried, throwing Thom to the Myrddraal. Then they ran away as fast as they could, and Thom's screams quickly faded into the distance along with any inconvenient feelings of guilt.

Who would win in a fight? (yes, you read that right! ) Yondaime - 04/02/2010 10:38:01 PM 2809 Views

Huh? He was even WORSE in TGS. Lord Haart - 05/02/2010 05:14:16 AM 1351 Views
I dunno. He actaully DID stuff this time Yondaime - 05/02/2010 05:24:48 AM 1436 Views
I agree he was much better than before darius_sedai - 05/02/2010 04:39:33 PM 1306 Views

Perhaps the key is that Gawyn is an even more simplistic thinker than Galad. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 06:20:06 AM 1329 Views
Again, what? When? Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 08:08:47 AM 1324 Views
Well, the fact that he's had access to one of the best educations in Randland Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 09:22:28 AM 1294 Views
Completely different subjects, and pretty insignificant, really. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 06:44:35 PM 922 Views
the person to beat Gawyn is Mat imlad - 06/02/2010 06:36:03 AM 1579 Views
Perrin would beat Lan?! *NM* BlackAdder - 06/02/2010 05:52:47 PM 1256 Views

Add Nynaeve and Egwene to the fight, that's something worth seeing then. Lord Haart - 05/02/2010 05:20:53 AM 1477 Views
Egwene would hand Nynaeve her ass darius_sedai - 05/02/2010 04:55:51 PM 1429 Views
I agree. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 05/02/2010 05:10:34 PM 1372 Views

I just mentioned it since you said Egwene had more combat experience. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 06:21:38 AM 1360 Views
I think you are missunderstanding me darius_sedai - 07/02/2010 02:04:13 AM 1399 Views

Nynaeve might have trouble... Fanatic-Templar - 05/02/2010 10:24:56 PM 1382 Views
That's not what RJ said. He said Nynaeve would be a little hard pressed Skeeve the Great - 05/02/2010 10:18:42 PM 1190 Views
she might be a little hard pressed to pass a test she should pass without thought! darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 05:56:38 PM 1084 Views
Moiraine was hard pressed to pass, and she practiced for ages and is the #1 Battle AS. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 08:27:26 PM 1300 Views
she passed pretty easily IMO darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 09:12:13 PM 1408 Views
Just like Be'lal did? And Lanfear's already learned that lesson the hard way. Lord Haart - 07/02/2010 01:40:45 AM 1258 Views

Yes, but choosing the time to attack is part of how good a fighter someone is. Lord Haart - 07/02/2010 06:30:55 PM 1243 Views
The test for the Shawl has little to nothing to do with channeling, you know this right? *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 05/02/2010 10:23:16 PM 819 Views
Are you being serious? *NM* Sidious - 06/02/2010 08:57:33 AM 870 Views
of course it does darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 05:48:41 PM 1379 Views
That's not how it happens in New Spring. Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 07:00:52 PM 1250 Views
that's because Moiraine trained and is relatively skilled (for AS) darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 07:34:05 PM 1373 Views
That's nonsensical. Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 09:02:13 PM 1381 Views
It's what RJ said ... "too much specialization" darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 09:14:38 PM 1273 Views
Well, if RJ said it, I guess it must be true. Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 11:17:19 PM 1289 Views

Re: Can you provide that quote? Skeeve the Great - 06/02/2010 08:19:08 PM 1334 Views
Yup, plus those were complex weaves that may have required multiple flows. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 08:30:52 PM 1307 Views
there is nothing to say that multiple weaves are involved. darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 09:16:29 PM 1269 Views
That's the nature on the weaving. Skeeve the Great - 06/02/2010 09:24:39 PM 1316 Views

1 Blossom = 1 Weave ... there is nothing to say that each thread requires splitting flows darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 10:48:11 PM 1326 Views
Fine, I used the word weave when I should have used flow. 36 flows to create 12 weaves. *NM* Datakim - 06/02/2010 10:57:09 PM 790 Views
