  1. Why is this not identical if it is a 50% possibility? Strongly disagree. I hated the end of Book 1 and it didn't fit with the rest of the series at all. The ending the chose is taken from aMoL more or less, and was the only bit I liked in that episode. They messed up the battle good and proper, yes
  2. Separate but connected point - to me the extra weight given to women being in control (making EF more like Far Madding in that way) was obviously to show how women being superior is just as bad as a patriarchy, and needs to be balanced out when the world resets via the Dragon Eg Red Ajah clearly being seen as bad overall I didn't get how people saw this as ultra feminism - wanting women to rule the roost
  3. Hope it comes quicker than rj's notes...
  4. Can we start a campaign to have the notes released? And to see original scripts for s1e7&8?
  5. I don't get why allowing the possibility that the Dragon could be female would be considered more inclusive? However you describe saidar and saidin you create a difference between men and women, whether you call it the same power just somehow tainted when used by men, so that isn't of significance in regards to inclusivity as far as I can see And regarding the Dragon, if it can be a woman (which I don't know if they ever meant to be a real possibility or just a distortion in the received prophecies - clear in later episodes that prophecies said the Dragon will break the world again, but that is a whole separate discussion) that does not make women more powerful or even equal, it just increases the impact of discovering it isn't. What does it have to do with inclusivity?
  6. I would add to this that many lesbian people I know were offended by RJ only ever (at least openly) featuring lesbian relationships as if school playdates. And no gays at all. How many people were as upset when BS introduced the first gay character? Was very clearly an adjustment to something he felt was lacking in the earlier books. It isn't politicising or propaganda just to adjust something to what is accepted as normal in our society.
  7. I think they mean Lan

  9. So he said that WoT is a feminist story? Or that he wanted to add more feminism to a story that doesn't have it?
  10. Can I see where they said this please? I don't remember that
  11. The data don't say this.

  13. S3e7 below 463 (still not in top 10) Surprised!
  14. Assuming misprint for Galad, but I wouldn't mind Salad being the new name for Alanna between two Warders?
  15. S3e6 below 470 (not in top 10) 😕
  16. Slightly different topic - Do you think Rand was deliberately trying to get Egwene to leave him to protect her?
  17. S1E1-3 had ~1150M mins viewed S1E4 had ~600M mins viewed S1E5 had 537M mins viewed S1E6 ca 505 S1E7 ca 470 S1E8 ca 640 S2E1-3 had 515M mins viewed S2E4 had 515M mins viewed S2E5 had 423M mins viewed S2E6 531 S2e7 416 S2e8? S3e1-3 534 S3e4 538 S3e5 505 Waded through 2023 thread on this topic and dug this out
  18. How do you see older stats? Would like to see an episode by episode comparison of all three seasons
  19. Following week Same ranking, fewer minutes
  20. It is dependent on whether they believe the accusation
  21. I really do not agree with this She was accused and convicted and sentenced yes, but Elaida did not say "you are a Darkfriend," thus did not break any Oath even if she knew the accusation was false. Anyone else may well have believed that trying to support the Dragon is clear evidence of being a DF, as Liandrin stated And Alviarin carrying out the sentence doesn't prove she is a DF as long as she believed Siuan is
  22. Not at all Everyone but Elaida could easily have believed that Siuan was a Dark friend. She had been accused and sentenced
  23. Exactly We only need Elaida to believe that Alviarin believes it
  24. Jon on WotUp has an interesting theory that the collar Liandrin took from Nynaeve was a female a'dam and that N was tricking her into thinking they had found what they wanted
  25. In Tar Valon has both and in Tanchico is the same So makes sense they can have a third if they want. Possible if they do have the Moiraine rescue that it can be via a doorway also
