Barasine + Katerine isn't that much less than darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 20/11/2012 05:26:31 PM
Why're you ignoring the fact that by the middle of the night, Egwene would be forkroot free, and yet Barasine would be enough to hold her? Why ignore your own quote, where Barasine continued to hold the shield on Egwene even when Egwene had been forkroot free for days?


Because two women can hold anyone (see Vandene/Adelease etc), but they add a third to hold Semirhage for caution's sake. Egwene can be held by one woman who knows what she's doing, once again proving to you both in the midst of your chaos that Egwene isn't close to Forsaken strength. Its fantastic when squabbling sinks your own theories :P


2 Middling Sisters and Daigian. Egwene, per the author is 1 step below the Forsaken ... why is this so difficult to accept? Why do you need her to be so much weaker than them? The evidence in the books supports that she is much stronger than even the strongest AS and not that much weaker than Nynaeve ... I just don't understand this stubborn refusal to accept the obvious. There is only one quote in the entire series that can even remotely be construed as there being a wide gulf at that is widely considered to be hyperbole (Bonfires and Candles).

Perhaps, but Egwene is also being a bit dramatic in the scene as she managed - 20/11/2012 04:28:57 AM 1077 Views
Nope... - 20/11/2012 03:13:13 PM 1131 Views
I believe she is being over dramatic - 20/11/2012 03:26:24 PM 1023 Views
Keep believing that... - 20/11/2012 03:30:14 PM 1162 Views

Tired and forkroot are the same now? - 20/11/2012 03:55:22 PM 1011 Views
No it's the literary device - 20/11/2012 04:04:28 PM 1143 Views
This is getting ridiculous... - 20/11/2012 04:43:13 PM 1015 Views
You are missing my point completely - 20/11/2012 04:50:46 PM 982 Views
Impossible. Daigian is exactly 0.32SD below the mean - 19/11/2012 11:06:04 AM 1085 Views
You keep saying that, but it is either a linear or a non-linear distribution - 19/11/2012 09:09:32 PM 1138 Views
That's the whole point. Thanks for finally seeing it. - 19/11/2012 09:43:27 PM 1093 Views
keep believing that ... but you making up numbers isn't really relevant *NM* - 20/11/2012 04:29:44 AM 694 Views
Please show me a number that is made up. The 0.32SD for Daigian is a rule of statistics. - 20/11/2012 07:15:48 AM 1051 Views
Go read Fionwe's post about it *NM* - 20/11/2012 02:33:19 PM 696 Views
Is that before or after she started juicing? - 15/11/2012 11:04:14 PM 1081 Views
Wouldn't it be 1 in 105 million? - 21/11/2012 04:56:19 PM 931 Views
Are you sure that it is a normal distribution? - 16/11/2012 04:21:02 PM 1145 Views
Ugh. I hate power level discussions. For real world applications, it should be kind of meaningless - 16/11/2012 10:28:49 PM 1037 Views
I don't really agree - 18/11/2012 08:40:53 PM 1011 Views
Perhaps, but we've seen that a MUCH weaker Channeler can win in a duel - 19/11/2012 09:13:48 PM 1059 Views
Re: Perhaps, but we've seen that a MUCH weaker Channeler can win in a duel - 20/11/2012 08:10:01 AM 1030 Views
probably ... Lanfear/Cyndane is clearly remarkably skilled - 20/11/2012 02:35:09 PM 1073 Views
Since I've proven that it's not a normal distribution in units of absolute strength, SDs don't apply - 17/11/2012 07:48:21 PM 1087 Views
You have proven nothing, except that you have an opinion *NM* - 18/11/2012 02:21:35 AM 668 Views
You simply don't get it. It is mathematically a fact. There is no opinion involved. - 18/11/2012 02:19:40 PM 923 Views
Only because you've assigned numeric values. That you created. - 18/11/2012 02:40:51 PM 1056 Views
It doesn't matter what figure you use... - 18/11/2012 03:01:56 PM 933 Views
What if Daigian is one third Lanfear's strength? - 18/11/2012 04:37:58 PM 1089 Views
We have a limit for Daigian's strength, as you well know. - 18/11/2012 05:41:49 PM 1056 Views
Are you kidding me? - 18/11/2012 09:07:38 PM 1184 Views
Sure you can - 18/11/2012 10:09:31 PM 1087 Views
Re: Sure you can - 18/11/2012 10:54:50 PM 1056 Views
You're right, though its 37.5% - 19/11/2012 12:21:29 AM 1009 Views
Oops, typo! - 19/11/2012 02:54:25 AM 1065 Views
Again, not possible, due to Daigian being just 0.3SD below the Mean - 19/11/2012 08:37:01 AM 1020 Views

You need to read it for yourself, since you're completely confused. - 20/11/2012 03:54:26 PM 987 Views

Exactly *NM* - 20/11/2012 04:55:28 PM 972 Views
BEcause Cadsuane is close on the heels of Egwene? - 20/11/2012 05:10:50 PM 918 Views
I'm not arguing that. I agree that Cadsuane is pretty close to Egwene - 20/11/2012 05:50:34 PM 1030 Views
