BAH! Its infuriating how you have so many blinders... Eerily Aes Sedai of you. fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 10/06/2010 07:54:23 PM
RJ said clearly that strength is distributed on a bell curve, not strength levels.

Keep insisting the Forsaken aren't free and the Senachan aren't a threat. Elaida would be proud of you.

Several good MAFOs from Dragonmount Etzel - 10/06/2010 07:07:55 PM 2201 Views
Some good RAFOs here Skeeve the Great - 10/06/2010 07:31:56 PM 968 Views
Yeah... Etzel - 10/06/2010 07:36:55 PM 885 Views
Maria's answer to question 20 is ground-breaking! Logain - 10/06/2010 07:36:40 PM 1126 Views
No, it merely means that the Bell Curve does not refer to absolute strength... Shannow - 10/06/2010 07:42:31 PM 1002 Views
See the question again man! fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 07:48:57 PM 962 Views
That contradicts your assertion that Moiraine is stronger than the average woman... Shannow - 10/06/2010 07:50:11 PM 1040 Views
How? fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 07:54:41 PM 980 Views
I need to re-evaluate nothing! fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 07:46:20 PM 975 Views
Think logically for a moment... Shannow - 10/06/2010 07:49:10 PM 819 Views
Who said Egwene is twice as strong as Moiraine? fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 07:52:27 PM 1065 Views
Aviendha did in FoH... Shannow - 10/06/2010 07:54:32 PM 821 Views
Nope! fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 07:55:55 PM 983 Views
Your quotes are faulty Sidious - 10/06/2010 07:57:18 PM 995 Views
In what sense though? fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 07:59:00 PM 986 Views

What do you mean? Sidious - 10/06/2010 08:07:24 PM 971 Views

I just did. fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:16:09 PM 749 Views
Well then we disagree Sidious - 10/06/2010 08:18:10 PM 949 Views
BUT WHAT ABOUT LATER IN THE NIGHT! fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:20:21 PM 800 Views
Ah, you mean later later ... Sidious - 10/06/2010 08:29:59 PM 894 Views
Forkroot wears off, you know? fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:45:33 PM 993 Views

RJ writes that Amys cannot hold Egwene. BS writes that Barasene can. Who are you gonna believe? Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:31:35 PM 812 Views
It wasn't BS... both were RJ! fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:41:54 PM 890 Views
In that case, there is no problem... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:45:05 PM 860 Views
But that isn't what the text says... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:57:42 PM 770 Views
How can Egwene be strong enough to overcome Katerine and Silviana together then? Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:07:36 PM 972 Views
She also says Egwene is Aes Sedai in the same sentence... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 09:25:16 PM 1011 Views
Yeah, both were RJ Sidious - 10/06/2010 08:49:13 PM 878 Views
Yeah yeah... RJ lied, Maria lied. Only you make sense. I'm finished with this debate. fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:59:06 PM 977 Views
Sidious - 10/06/2010 09:07:52 PM 948 Views

I haven't refuted? fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 09:53:17 PM 997 Views
Here's what is clear: Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:02:41 PM 865 Views
IMO it's easy to disprove Sidious - 10/06/2010 09:22:23 PM 854 Views
Dude... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 09:27:34 PM 773 Views
At least we agree on one thing Sidious - 10/06/2010 09:29:14 PM 864 Views
No... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 09:32:06 PM 781 Views

Thought on this darius_sedai - 13/06/2010 01:09:29 PM 819 Views
yet 4 women can still hold Rand in LoC ... he can't break the Shield until it's down to 3 darius_sedai - 13/06/2010 12:47:43 PM 703 Views
Have to agree with Sidious on this point darius_sedai - 11/06/2010 02:49:58 AM 806 Views
That was kind of my point... fionwe1987 - 11/06/2010 12:19:23 PM 543 Views
of course Katerine would have complained darius_sedai - 12/06/2010 12:53:31 PM 917 Views
The rate forkroot wears off? Rurouni_Kenshin - 16/06/2010 12:36:38 PM 908 Views
You missed that she isn't being given Forkroot at night at all! fionwe1987 - 16/06/2010 04:47:59 PM 825 Views
Typos, screwed up what I meant Rurouni_Kenshin - 17/06/2010 02:31:50 AM 835 Views
You are... fionwe1987 - 17/06/2010 04:32:47 AM 1043 Views
Maria's other answer adresses this... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:14:54 PM 702 Views
Then one Aes Sedai cannot shield her. But one did. fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:16:41 PM 836 Views
You can be much weaker than someone, and hold them shielded, if they are already cut off... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:19:15 PM 801 Views
But, if you are much stronger, you can break that shield... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:22:25 PM 814 Views
Easy... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:24:59 PM 782 Views
What has that got to do with it? fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:32:56 PM 965 Views
Amys is not LESS than half of Egwene's strength. You cannot hold someone if you are LESS than half.. Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:47:41 PM 869 Views
Amys is as strong as Moiraine, at the most one level lower. Barasine is weaker than Katarine, who... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 09:00:26 PM 1013 Views
I can agree with that. Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:09:07 PM 771 Views
How can you agree with it? Sidious - 10/06/2010 09:13:55 PM 979 Views
I'm thinking Berowin here... Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:16:41 PM 971 Views
Exactly. fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 09:18:19 PM 843 Views
... Sidious - 10/06/2010 09:12:21 PM 752 Views
Agreed, but... Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:13:59 PM 925 Views
Re: Agreed, but... Sidious - 10/06/2010 09:16:30 PM 723 Views
Good point... Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:18:53 PM 942 Views
Or, you know, you're wrong? fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 09:27:55 PM 808 Views
Re: Good point... Sidious - 10/06/2010 09:28:02 PM 1006 Views
We've had this discussion before darius_sedai - 13/06/2010 01:59:34 PM 907 Views
Or, you know, you can have the grace to question your antiquated strength list... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 09:22:51 PM 809 Views
The Bell Curve fits perfectly if one simple fact is true... Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:31:31 PM 758 Views
Or, you know, you can stop misinterpreting Aviendha... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 09:40:05 PM 882 Views
I'd be perfectly happy to adjust my list if it made sense Sidious - 10/06/2010 09:32:35 PM 743 Views

Re: I explained... Sidious - 10/06/2010 10:45:58 PM 869 Views
Rand seems to shield Egwene and Elayne TOGETHER, pretty easily... Shannow - 10/06/2010 09:54:03 PM 1347 Views
That's fairly simple, actually... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 10:08:53 PM 981 Views
Nope. Rand was also cut off from the Source when he broke a shield held by 3 Aes Sedai... Shannow - 10/06/2010 11:18:41 PM 958 Views
Because that channeler is much stronger? I'm not getting your confusion here. *NM* fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 11:27:31 PM 470 Views
Your Aes Sedai are close to the average woman in strength, right... Shannow - 10/06/2010 11:42:01 PM 1008 Views
You are making a couple of mistakes darius_sedai - 13/06/2010 02:28:41 PM 876 Views
You're missing an important point... fionwe1987 - 14/06/2010 11:10:55 PM 859 Views
Yes, what do you mean? You are actually proving our point... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:10:50 PM 733 Views
No, here's the quote: I hate having to pull out my books with their yellowed pages... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:01:54 PM 801 Views
Why would she need surprise against two? That was against five of them... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:04:57 PM 818 Views
That makes no sense whatsoever... Shannow - 10/06/2010 08:06:53 PM 780 Views
Simply this... fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 08:13:42 PM 798 Views
Very poor evidence Sidious - 10/06/2010 08:11:26 PM 923 Views

Re: No it isn't... Sidious - 10/06/2010 08:32:17 PM 959 Views
no she said Egwene is stronger than Amys and Melaine combined darius_sedai - 11/06/2010 12:46:29 AM 875 Views
The actual quote says Amys and Melaine combined... Shannow - 11/06/2010 12:25:07 PM 931 Views
Here's the problem with that... fionwe1987 - 11/06/2010 12:42:41 PM 783 Views
Linked circles are more effective than individual channelers... Shannow - 11/06/2010 01:57:43 PM 883 Views
That much stronger? fionwe1987 - 14/06/2010 11:06:18 PM 942 Views

So how can Egwene be twice as strong as Moiraine, if Moiraine is at 55? Shannow - 10/06/2010 07:53:11 PM 759 Views
She cannot be because she isn't. Silviana can shield Egwene alone, for God's sake. So can Amys! fionwe1987 - 10/06/2010 07:56:26 PM 700 Views
