That was gentle ribbing, not ad hom. Calm down. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 26/03/2011 04:22:24 PM
Nate isn't capable of the nastiness needed for ad hominem attacks.

See, I disagree. Lady Mystery - 23/03/2011 01:05:59 AM 1684 Views
Also, I think we all know GRRM has more interest than just writing Dark Knight - 23/03/2011 05:06:34 AM 1568 Views
I would agree with you, but... Eh! Frank - 24/03/2011 06:59:14 AM 1483 Views

Yeah but, come on, 6 years? And 5 years for the book before that? *NM* Dark Knight - 23/03/2011 05:05:01 AM 714 Views

do you realize how little time is spent on whining and bitching? MalkierKnight - 24/03/2011 10:06:16 AM 1356 Views
Well, you're spending time on it right now. *NM* Variant - 25/03/2011 03:35:10 AM 715 Views

Can we please stop making baseless comparisons to Lord of the Rings? Thanks. Ghavrel - 25/03/2011 06:22:50 AM 1409 Views
And can we try to strive for accuracy in what we are saying? Thanks. Werthead - 25/03/2011 08:24:51 AM 1441 Views
Yeah, and im sure WWII, which his son was fighting in, wasn't a distraction at all MalkierKnight - 25/03/2011 01:09:22 PM 1405 Views

You, uh, just started arguing my position. Ghavrel - 26/03/2011 10:55:19 AM 1257 Views
Are you seriously that naive? MalkierKnight - 25/03/2011 01:07:39 PM 1562 Views
I think you're relying on math way too much to interpret the situation. Werthead - 25/03/2011 08:48:32 PM 1658 Views

But Sanderson's book was a mess. *NM* Ghavrel - 24/03/2011 09:35:56 PM 698 Views
Was it really? Which one was this? *NM* rebelaessedai - 25/03/2011 03:40:58 AM 775 Views
ToM. Still was better than what Jordan was writing, though. Ghavrel - 25/03/2011 06:21:49 AM 1168 Views
Interesting. rebelaessedai - 27/03/2011 11:32:39 PM 1400 Views

I thought it was pretty damn good, personally. *NM* callandor1000 - 25/03/2011 05:13:25 AM 815 Views
I enjoyed it a lot more than I enjoyed any of Jordan's recent books. Ghavrel - 25/03/2011 06:20:47 AM 1440 Views
I enjoyed it immensely as well, but im still torn MalkierKnight - 25/03/2011 03:07:59 PM 1380 Views

I think about half of the responses are just from Malkierknight. *NM* Japhy - 25/03/2011 05:11:18 PM 737 Views
These threads are always ridiculous. I'm both astounded & not at all surprised that there's another Rebekah - 25/03/2011 06:39:34 PM 1339 Views

It always astounds me that the developers at Valve aren't hanging from street lamps outside their HQ Werthead - 25/03/2011 09:07:56 PM 1332 Views
