I hated it because it reeked of sanderson pandering to "internet humour" for lack of a better term.

I don't know quite how to describe it exactly, but I got the same feeling when I watched the show big bang theory, which I hate. And I'm not saying that there aren't funny things on the internet by any means. I'm talking about the memes that are regurgitated ad nauseum.
It's this generic sort of pandering to nerd like taste. It attempts to be funny, but it really isn't. The conversations between pevara and anrol read like a lame attempt at clever quips with a dry sense of humour.

So, am I the only one who kind of liked the whole Androl/Pevara plot?

It felt like a plot tacked on as a vanity by Sanderson

I kind of always thought RJ intended the minor characters to be bland

I feel the same about Mat's luck powers. You talk about plot armor, his is a plot bulldozer.

You're not the only one who liked it. I thought the mind meld was cool. *NM*

I liked it. Most of the whining about is hilarious.

It wasn't bad. However, it took away time from characters that readers were more invested in. *NM*

It was a fairly bad execution of some good ideas

That one line characterizes the last two books of WoT generally. *NM*

He probably didn't have enough time to learn the characters completely

Pretty much. But I think significant blame should be laid at Jordan's feet for his abysmal pacing.

Its true, but RJ should get some blame

Certainly RJ deserves some of the blame. But pacing issues were not the only issue with AMOL

I liked it more than reading about Perrin. And seeing Mat butchered even further. *NM*
