Will you tell us when we sink a ship?

The show has done an amazing job of having grown up conversations, something that was frequently missing in the books. Like how many problems could have been avoided by talking to each other?

Dice, I'm not sold on him being town. TBH I hadn't thought you were going to be on to discuss cause weekend. Also not sure how much we are allowed to go on. It seems like full on cases were not to be done, to control thread volume. I was having a thought before you had to reveal, of having everyone go "if I'm the vig, I shoot x". Then the vig could see and it would do cover. It would also allow us to possibly confirm who the vig was based on the shot. The other thought I had was due to the mislynch, to suggest the vig holster ( if possible) but I don't see that as a possibility now because you most likely getting NKed.

I watched @Lezbi Nerdy YouTube thoughts on episode 1 video earlier. She had some interesting stuff. One thing she mentioned that I agree with is that the show has done a much better job of making the Forsaken competent and therefore much scarier. They seem to have fleshed them out much better as well. I love her enthusiasm for it all. It reminds me of how stoked we all were when a new book was coming out.

I guess we keep going down the line D1

C1?

Fabulous

I'd like to thank the Academy, and all the people that aided me on this journey.

For blue team

Dancing

I don't see any other red team members, so I guess B1

That makes sense. I also think that when Nyn comes into her own by beating the block (hurry up already), She will quickly be able to do things quicker and better than current AS are performing.

Yes, an epic fail that you look back on and have a good chuckle with your friends about. Remember when we were the absolute worst at Battleships? Yeah, we were not good at all but it was hysterical.

We are terrible at this. Gonna guess I8

My general take on the show is it is a different turning of the wheel, so things won't be exactly the same. Circumstances of her war of succession are not shown, so we have no idea how long or brutal it was. Those houses could have done things that could not be forgiven. We just don't know. It also possible that Morgase herself was changed and is just more ruthless. As to how she looks in the cold open, I assume they just didn't want to have to cast another actress just for the one scene and/or thought it would be better to have the same person play her. It didn't bother me very much in any case. The Two Princes being horn dogs, again, another turning. It is conceivable they had some different experiences growing up so became slightly different men. The metal swords for training, is dumb but people do dumb things, maybe they figure that any accidents will just be quickly healed as in this turning AS can actually do that well. Not taking horses might have Ben the logistically sound choice as the terrain didn't appear conducive to riding, or even walking a horse. Alanna is a big girl, she can handle herself pretty well and it does show she was injured in transit, so yeah. I mean to me it is more amazing that Perrin et al made it through with seemingly little difficulty. The TR folk lack of reactions to them arriving did seem off but they have been dealing with stuff so maybe their a bit dead. I'm not surprised by the maidens being able to recognise that mistress Al'vere is a leader of the town. Even if Perrin doesn't tell them directly, she is more wealthy by appearances and she does carry herself with an air of authority. Lanfear multitasking in TaR was cool.

The Aiel were there, you just couldn't see them because they blend into the waste so well, lol.

C5?

I'm red.andy ninja me.

This is what happens when you take stormtroopers and make them fire control technicians.

OK red team seems distracted by Zanderspam C3

You can edit here you need to. Just not guesses.

Do we discuss or just blurt it out? Or take turns? *initiating family feud style huddle*

The changes don't really bother me for the most part and I've been reading the books since 1990. The only one that I really noticed and was kinda "wut" was the insta healing and then the healed person being right back in the fight. The travel was okay. Yes they needed more supplies to go into the waste. I guess it could be explained by the Aiel with them knowing where available water could be found. They had to go to TV first because the girls needed to be taken back and everyone alerted to the BA in person. That info is not going by pigeon/letter. Only the fight in the streetwise public and it looked like people were actively avoiding it. Afterwards, a plausible cover story would be released and people would most likely forget about it or itwould become a gossip item. They didn't even tell Morgase about the attack when she arrived. Everything was tidy and neat when she arrived. Glad was always a jerk, that he became a "rules for thee, not for me" type is a small leap. I don't necessarily agree but it's small potatoes. Moraine and Lanfear are both portrayed as pragmatic and willing to do most anything to achieve their goals. I'd say they were within there moral guidelines to work together in this instance. Moraine already followed her to stay with Rand through the ways. It sets up some things for later as well. My biggest peeve is now I have to wait a week for each new episode to drop.

I'll join the red team
