Imagine how much more I wish that, since I am amused by global conflict and care more about WoT than your loved ones' health and security. Even my loved ones are a near-run thing.
What was even more infuriating was the promises of people who read it in advance that it was just fine. Apparently they didn't give copies to anyone objective, just people who were too tight with Sanderson or Team Jordan to be honest in their assessment or reviews, like Jason from Dragonmount or Leigh Butler. Jason actually had the temerity to say that he couldn't tell which parts were written by RJ or by B-Sand. I didn't need more than a couple pages to know that RJ had absolutely not written it.

What's even more galling, is that we actually had a sample of a similar note he had written to Nynaeve! How hard is it to remember that? How hard was it for Teresa or Harriet or whoever to point out that Sanderson's version of Mat's writing was nothing like the note he left for Nynaeve in aCoS?
I think that some of the stupidity might have been Sanderson thinking they were being smart. For example, when Perrin & Rand are talking in the beginning of aMoL, Rand explains something to Perrin using a simplistic metaphor, and the conversation turns to how Egwene disagrees with Rand on that topic. Perrin suggest Rand explain it to Egwene the same way, and then goes on to reassure Rand that she'll get it because she is smarter than either of them. "She's so smart, you need to break it down to a juvenile analogy." Forget whether or not it fits with the established characters or world-building of the story...how does that sentence even make logical sense? You don't need to know WoT to know that's dumb. Then there were things like characters saying stupid stuff in arguments, or being convinced by nonsense, as in much of Egwene's arc.

I didn't see it. Actually, as far as I was concerned, the stuff in those novels only highlighted the mistakes he made in breaking the books apart, and how he erred in his characterizations and pacing in tSR.

Thanks.
