  1. I see what you are trying to do there, lol. There is no such thing as least appropriate at this point, I don't have any inside knowledge of which votes could be significant to which team. I have never fallen into the camp of claiming actions in first few minutes of the game are AI. Not in any of vast experience of Mafia. Do you have an opinion on the appropriateness of the voting?
  2. Not sure what point you are trying to make.
  3. What did the guy say? Don't be heavy but light of spirit or something? Makes me think we should go for the Breath path - though balance has been a central theme so far, it doesn't seem to mean that kind of balance.
  4. It was a long time ago (about thirty years roughly) and I may not have really known what I was doing, to be fair.
  5. I'm happy to be outvoted but that means the other slackers have to pull their finger out, lol.
  6. But there isn't any point making claims on other people's behalf. There is not need to state your opinion - whether positive or negative - and then present this as the majority view in lieu of actual reasoning. If it is a popular view, we'll see it come from more than one person, repeatedly. I could be mistaken, but in series 2, did you not say that you knew a large number of non-readers who were greatly enjoying the show? How is this group of 60 odd people finding the third series? Or am I misremembering?
  7. No one is talking about giving the entire arc to anyone else - we were specifically talking about someone being a mentor Egwene so that she isn't just natively the most astute politician for a thousand years (and indeed, do we even need to assume they would not just do that?). The show will not have any time to do any more than thumbnail sketch the political situation - probably something of two Aes Sedai being at loggerheads so both support Egwene to spite the other. There is no need to have the whole arc of Suian in there just to make that seem more believable. Heck, is Elayne not there for part of it? A bit of exposition in dialogue between the Wonder Girls, Nynaeve insults the Aes Sedai, Elayne gives some political advice, Egwene says "I'll never give in!", job done. And that is just one possibility. You appear to be attaching an awful lot of import to what you would like to see, rather than accepting the show, even if perfectly done, cannot keep the level of detail that you seem to expect. Not with the screentime available. However much many people might hate losing Suian at this point, I don't understand how people cannot accept that it is a reasonable solution to triming down the narrative going forward, even if you don't agree with it.
  8. And also given the stature of the actress, it probably makes more sense to have Leane go forward as Suian/Leane if it is going to be a bit part, if they choose to do that, at least.
  9. What is it with people assuming that they speak for "most" of the fanbase. I thought the whole Salidar thing was a bit drawn out. While Suian is a master politician, she is also very young for an Aes Sedai in the books. Another Blue could be promoted, Leane could be revealed as Suian's campaign manager, Moiraine could advise her in the dream... Given the short screentime available it seems unlikely that this plot would be hugely developed. Plus the whole stilling story-line relies heavily on internal pov, how would you film what she was experiencing? Having Suian die at the coup makes sense, when you have so much to prune. Whatever they do with things like Salidar, they cannot have the original cast of thousands for story lines that are only going to take up a few scenes. There will need to be a pro-Egwene faction and two opponents. Easy enough to find a mentor for her who can double up with another role (such as one of the informal council that was in charge as Suian could not be one of them as she was stilled). Also removing her removes the need to devote screen time to the relationship with Moiraine, or be criticised for not doing so.
  10. That is quite a lot of voting for a game that hasn't as such started yet...
  11. That is so not my experience of NPCs, lol. Always got me annoyed when they would sell you stuff for a hundred gold and then buy it back for 1 gold especially in things like Diablo when you were literally travelling into demon-infested dungeons to save their village but they cannot sell that shield you sold by mistake back to you except at a 10x mark up. Ooo, and mobs that fight you in a full suit of armour with two huge axes and then drop a rusty penknife when they die, sooo annoying lol. I'm sure they have done skits on those already.
  12. Well we were trying to get the Air Temple before Kevin sidetracked us so maybe we should just get on with getting our masteries of the elements before we settle down to a 9 to 5? I think we are too young to settle down, no matter how great a steady reliable life with Kevin sounds.
  13. I just though we should be able to vote for other people than Lenlo. Seems a flaw in the game if you can't. *shrugs*
  14. You have to vote for Lenlo? That seems unfair, even to me.
  15. You have to vote for Lenlo? That seems unfair, even to me.
  16. That is worrying. The whole twitter thing thing is after my time, that means I'm generationally out of date. Maybe that means I'm cool again though? Yeah, didn't think so.
  17. And the rest is history with all these peeps coming back to play with you. (giggitty)
  18. I have never heard such a wolfy suggestion. Obvious ploy. I really am, lol, in the Shayol Ghul org. Unfortunately activity remains an issue (as in there is none whatsoever at the moment) , but it is good to take a stand against the puny humans of the other factions and show one's devotion to Lily, the Dark One herself.
  19. Since Z isn't playing, who is going to start the fake-but-not-fake argument on D1 now?
  20. It was the most awesome show ever. And the theme song! But I'll let you get back to your serious discussion. I know nothing about anime, sawwy.
  21. Obviously, Dogtanian and the Muskahounds... ...I'll get my coat.
  22. 5 investigate the humming Spirit shard in the well again. Someone threw it in there for a reason...but it does help our little Flickerling, so...
