    Hello Elgee!

     

    I used to be part of the White Tower as a member of the White Ajah. I'm a Mom now though, so I'll probably be more of a lurker (for now;-)

     

    Oh wonderful!

    Did you use the same handle back then, or a different one?

    Also, were you at the Role Playing side, or the Social Side? Or both? Or before the split?

     

    So many questions ?

    Whatever the answers, we're glad to see you back here!

    I reckon they can include those sorts of subtle changes to costume, hairstyle and background props even in the first season's Dreamshard nightmares.  They just have to be really subtle about it.  Once Tel'aran'Rhiod is well established, they can be blatant about it, having stuff changing directly on-camera as well as changing background stuff between cuts, and once that signature is explained to the characters/audience, eagle-eyed viewers can then go back to re-watch those early scenes and catch those much more subtle tells, or those of us book-readers might keep an eye out for that kind of stuff the first time through and be rewarded with catching it.

     

    I love that idea ?

    I think making the background black and white, like someone mentioned, with just the people / main things in colour, could make it distinct from the waking world too. Being TOO subtle won't be good.

  3. Hello there Robert!

    You would be very welcome over at the White Tower & Warders. I'm guessing you would incline towards the Warder path but everyone starts off as an Initiate there just to make sure they're happy with their choice.

    Hope to see you there!

    Mommy.

  4. Welcome to DJ, Jardius! Hope you're managing to find your way around?

     

    I'm not a native English speaker either, though I grew up in a small town where roughly half the people were English speaking so grew up with the language. I'm from South Africa, and my home language is Afrikaans (derived mostly from Dutch & German).

    Where are you from, if you don't mind me asking?

  5. Welcome to DM PaigeJohnson! ... I feel very Aiel when I call you by your full name like that ... LoL!

     

    Do you have any favourite people or groups of people in the books?

    With each successive volume, my interest, investment, and the time I spend thinking about the world, characters, and plots when I'm not reading increases.  ....  The level of detail, and the fullness of the world, are astonishing

     

    I couldn't agree with you more!

    I can never decide if reading each book the first time was the best experience, or re-reading it for the howmanyeth time! I'm currently doing a reread again. I must have read the 1st few books close to 30 times now, I kid you not. Each time a new one came out, I would start re-reading from the start. In between, I would also do rereads. The only one I've not reread is the last one. I've tried to blank it from my mind. Not sure yet if I'll include it in my reread this time.

     

    Aaaanyhoo ... welcome to DM! Hope to see you around some more ?

    Hi there!

     

    I thought I would sign up and say hello, which I've done. I don't know how many times I've read through the series - fewer now that I'm an aged and withered old person - but me and the series have a long history together. I used to post on the now extremely defunct wotism site, even before it moved to a forum. 

     

    Anyway, hello, hello, and again. Hello. This was awkward.

     

    Hehehe welcome! I'm also an old person, but at apparently I'm cuddly. If Barmy hasn't changed my description again.

     

    So which person / groups in the series is / are your favourite/s? (I like to give options, as you can see.)

    Hi all,

     

    I started doing this WOT online stuff back at Silklantern, then PortalStones as Melisa Sedai and Ayrowa Kathan, among others. Now I'm here, and I'm not working for an extended period as most of us are at home, so here I am. 

     

    How's everyone?

    --M

     

     

    You've come to the right place! hehehehe

     

    Are you an RPer, or a Social AS, or both? I've heard of those sites but I don't know how they're set up.
