While these are good, none of it is because of the White Tower beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 03/09/2009 05:43:56 PM
The detecting men channel thing is good, but it was done independantly. The Healing is the same.

My complaint is that the organizations of Salidar and the White Tower are effectively useless. They're so incredibly focused on each other that everything else falls by the wayside. And when they DO spare a glance for the outside world, they're usually either ineffective or outright harmful- see the groups sent to Rand, the attack on the Black Tower, the kidnapping of the King of Illian.
I amuse myself.

That is the inspiration for the Aes Sedai that RJ used - I can't find the article, though. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/09/2009 02:39:14 PM 826 Views

So lets add a few more NaClH2O - 03/09/2009 11:42:48 AM 791 Views
most of these are accounted for above ranagrande - 03/09/2009 02:18:01 PM 850 Views
Just because we don't know all their names, doesn't mean their effectiveness on the Pattern was less RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/09/2009 03:19:41 PM 841 Views
But who did the work? NaClH2O - 03/09/2009 05:37:00 PM 694 Views

So if Elaida didn't order it, it doesn't count? NaClH2O - 03/09/2009 07:29:20 PM 733 Views
Actually I think that's his point ranagrande - 04/09/2009 01:40:37 PM 825 Views

Only one point because obviously your mind is made up. NaClH2O - 05/09/2009 06:13:23 AM 798 Views
well, yeah ranagrande - 05/09/2009 02:33:51 PM 816 Views
In that case, Rand, Mat, Perrin... all of them are superfluous. fionwe1987 - 05/09/2009 03:03:07 PM 720 Views

No, fionwe1987 is absolutely right! ranagrande - 05/09/2009 05:13:39 PM 679 Views
I'm glad the real world disagrees with you NaClH2O - 05/09/2009 05:05:50 PM 719 Views

I was talking about the WT specifically, and only during recent years. It's Gotta be the Shadow, beetnemesis - 03/09/2009 05:39:11 PM 721 Views
So what you are really saying is that if you ignore over 2/3rds of the AS the rest aren't doing much NaClH2O - 03/09/2009 06:07:23 PM 663 Views
I'm talking about the organization as a whole beetnemesis - 03/09/2009 10:07:37 PM 742 Views
No you are talking about Elaida NaClH2O - 03/09/2009 10:32:59 PM 699 Views
You just made our point... fionwe1987 - 04/09/2009 12:49:44 AM 751 Views
Well, because most of her actions infringe on that "bubble" beetnemesis - 04/09/2009 09:00:52 PM 650 Views

WT has been THE single greatest force for stagancy and lack of development. Lohikaarme - 09/09/2009 08:58:58 AM 690 Views
Like I said earlier the AS are superfluous except the ones who aren't superfluous. NaClH2O - 09/09/2009 11:55:47 AM 795 Views
To a certain extent ajsr1982 - 03/09/2009 11:33:30 AM 965 Views
Definitely. And Egwene is in denial. beetnemesis - 03/09/2009 05:53:14 PM 745 Views
