If he took the time to record such a long video, he's clearly informed and objective.

Wrong.

No one would waste that much time of their lives to rile up Nintendo fans with subjective bullshit.

Wrong.

Nintendo fanboys crying about anything remotely critical of Nintendo, as per usual

Also wrong.

If its the article I think; she accidentally broke his headset/mic.

Not in this article. It says he starter yelling and shouting after getting upset over something and then his mother came into the room.

I did quite often when I used to travel for work. Not so often these days.

Only two other things I question are super nitpicky. One is that it's always described that iron and steel give you a single line towards an object, but towards the end Kelsier displays an ability to push and pull on specific parts of an object. Is this ever shown elsewhere, and how is it done exactly?

I didn't get that either. I think he might be a Steel and/or Iron Savant, and able to do it because of that. If so it should of been explained.

The other is that Vin throws out a bunch of pewter dust to blind steel inquisitors with all the blue lines from iron and steel. Is this just possible because they're stronger allomantically, or does it effect everyone, and is there a limit to the size of what your iron pushing and steel pulling effects? Couldn't people just detect vials of metals at that point? Especially Atium?

I think it's because they can only see by burning iron and steel, since their eyes have been stabbed out. Or they may be seeing by the same method Shardholders use, that is blocked by metal.

OctilIery posted...

Is it? I don't remember it, but it's been a bit.

Yes. Ranette's Coinshot and Lurcher Hazekiller rounds work similar to the trick. They are made of ceramic but have pieces of metal on them, you can push or pull. Coinshots or Lurcher push or pull the metal but the ceramic part is still deadly.

OctilIery posted...

Also, one thing that always bothered me - the arrow trick Vin does at the end of the final empire is clever and awesome. How has nobody thought of it before or used it since?

You mean where she put rings of them so people push on them and expect them to stop, but the rings just fly off? If so it's basically used in Era 2.

Eerieka posted...

To add to this, and correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't Sanderson stated that Hoid is originally from a world/book he hasn't published yet?

Yep. He's from Yolen, also all the original Shardholders were from there as well.

Do you have Arcanum Unbounded?

But I got better things to do with my time then wait dozens of hours for a game to get interesting.

It gets good way before the dozen hour point.

Makeveli_lives posted...

All of 3 minutes in. And again, these are basic enemies, not meant to be difficult.

He was pretty over-leveled at that point, and had more team mates than he would have when he first went through. If he wanted to show how you win just by auto-attacking, he should of used same level enemies.

Makeveli_lives posted...

He... did it in the video though.

At what point?

Makeveli_lives posted...

His complaint was that he could walk into a room, press a, put the controller down, and auto battle would proceed to handle everything for him.

That isn't true unless he's crazy over-leveled.

DoomSwell posted...

I wouldn't know, but the video said he was at the 15 hour mark.

If he says he's at the 15 hour mark, and still in the auto-battle and QTE phase, he sucks at the game or is just wandering around aimlessly.

Because if they don't deserve citizenship more than the people already in the process of immigrating legally then there's no argument to be made for DACA to even exist.

How so? DACA doesn't give them citizenship. So why does whether or not they deserve citizenship affect whether DACA should exist?

KingCrabCake posted...

Sorry i cant draw you a picture

No one's asking you to draw one. I'm asking you (or Mal or anyone) why the question, of whether or not DACA kids deserve citizenship, is relevant to this conversation.

KingCrabCake posted...

Because they're here illegally *shrugs*

I don't see why you think that makes it relevant to the conversation.

Mal_Fet posted...

That's my argument against DACA, it's unrelated to the question of whether the beneficiaries if DACA deserve it.

Your question was why DACA kids deserve citizenship. I want to know why you think it matters.

Mal_Fet posted...

Because amnesty doesn't work and never has. We know it only engenders more illegal immigration and we will be in this same exact position in 15 years if DACA is allowed to remain.

What does any of that have to do with whether or not they deserve citizenship?

Mal_Fet posted...

I've still never gotten a good explanation for why these kids deserve citizenship before the kids who have already applied for citizenship legally do.

Who cares? DACA doesn't allow for a path to citizenship. So why does it matter whether they deserve citizenship or not?

It depends on the book.

Yes. Axe for Her.

oh

i feel like the society of oroborous are gonna be jobbers as well

Joshua's probably the weakest major member in the society.

What a crappy article. It says the tantrum was over a video game in the title, but only says it was over "something" in the article.

Rika_Furude posted...

im up to zeiss in SC, do you think josh could solo the group as they are atm? estella, oliver, agate and kloe together

No. He could probably beat all of them, one-on-one but not four-on-one.

Joshua is fairly strong but no where near Cassius's. Joshua specialises in sneak attacks though.

OctilIery posted...

I just got past the Hoid encounter. Was Hoid already a world hopper at this point, or did that start after he became Mistborn?

Im not sure I'd consider this spoilers, but he was already a world hopper. Elantris takes place before Mistborn Era 1.

Nothing. I'd be too far away to do anything.

Ok. Gotcha.

0 and I plan to give them 0.

I wonder if the dude decided on the sport that the jock would play is the same dude that got a squirrely kid to be the Flash Thompson bully of Peter Parker spiderman in the homecoming movie.

I doubt. I'm pretty sure he plays lacrosse in the comics, and I don't think the original writer and artist are involved in the MCU.

Bank Indonesia (BI) has previously said that cryptocurrencies were not recognized as a legal medium of exchange, so that they could not be used as a means of payment in Indonesia.

They don't allow bartering?

No. They are supposed to be obsessive athletes. They can also be Athletes but it isn't a requirement.

It's a moon reference

Which is kinda weird since the planet Mistborn is based on has no moon.

MC_BatCommander posted...

Interesting. I wonder what the logistics are of using the powers from one shard world on another, is it as simple as just gaining the power lets you use it no matter where you are? Wonder how Stormlight might be used on a world where there are no highstorms?

It depends on the power. Hemalurgy is apparently just as easy to use. Get the right kind of metal, push it into the right part of the body with the right intent and it'll work. Regardless of anything. Using other powers like Allomancy, or Surgebinder, is apparently harder on different worlds.

In a boxing match? The boxer.
In a death match? The soldier.

Clearly they confused the books and movies.

They're obviously talking about Winky.

I like this one:

As already said the Infinity Gauntlet is an easy explanation. Otherwise they could update the story, so mutants are just discovered now.

Yes, i never said it wasn't

Wrong.

iClockwork posted...

Its says in the headline, bureaucratic retribution.

I'm not sure why you feel that's relevant to my post.

Why would they face this type of retribution?

Maybe you should read the article and find out.

Rika_Furude posted...

Anyways, back on topic.

We never left the topic.

iClockwork posted...

How do you interpret the headline and article?

I interpreted it as click bait designed to feel strong emotions and curiosity but no actual explanation. This is because they say the SAS isn't going on missions with Delta Force, but don't give a real describtion of what happens when they get told to do so.

Rika_Furude posted...

I asked you to stop trolling me, and you've refused

I pointed out that I can't stop what I haven't started. All I've done is point out your mistakes and that isn't trolling. You've even agreed with that in this topic.

They are in fear of partaking and don;t which means they make the choice not to.

No it doesn't.
