  1. Don't get me wrong, I like MBotF, so my frustration is even bigger, because I really want to love the damm thing. I want to read all the books. But i really don't know if I can.
  2. I really don't know if I have enough willpower to continue reading, I thought, when I was reading previous books, that I'll have most of the answers by the end of the book 10, but instead I got some answers, but a lot more question. Also, by searching the internet, my confusion is not based on question of Who ("Who's this person?"), What ("What are they talking about?") or When("When did this happen?") with the help of Wiki, I can manage those. It's the Why and How. For example, death of Fener in the last book. How did Karsa killed him by cutting the altar? Is there some kind of connection mentioned in before? So one can killed any god just by cutting the altar? Why did Karsa did it? How did he know it? And also, how did Fener's blood resurrect T'lan Lmass? Is there a hint in the book? Is it blood sacrifice? But isn't that usually connected with a sacrifice to God, not of God? The why's: What was the point of the T'lan miner who was found by Harllo(?). Why was this in the book? You don't need answers this, I have like a hundred question's floating in my head and I'm sure, there is a good explanation for most of my question, but I really dislike first reading a book and then having someone to explain it to me.
  3. Thanks, I'll check this out, especially for the last the books of the series, because TBH I don't really remember a lot (that wasn't picked up in the last two books) from previous books and I really don't plan to do a re-read.
  4. I just finished reading last of the Malazan Book of the Fallen and is normal to fell stupid? I'm now questioning my reading ability, my comprehension of the text, because I just don't get half of the things. Not just from the last book, but also from the previous books, some things just hang in the air, like a mist my brains. And for every thing that I don't get, I question myself: Was it written on the pages? Was it written on the previous pages? In previous book? Should I piece things together from the hints? Should I just fill in the blanks with my imagination? I don't know and it's frustrating. Maybe I'm just not smart enough.
  5. Jumbo Visma - how to be the best and the worst team
  6. Ee, I off course meant um, one, two, three, four, ... emm, quadruple double! Now if I counted correctly that he didn't get, so ...
  7. Pfff, best stat ever? He didn't even get to triple double...
  8. Thanks, yeah it's pretty awesome to run pass all the monuments build centuries ago. I'll try to run more of this kind of races and combine it with sightseeing, because I live close to Italy and it's full of this kind of ancient cities. Also a little bit of offtopic: I was talking with my sister about that, Slovenia is so small, that we sometimes have some different senses of scales. I live three hours ride from Venice, but I was never there, because "it's to far away!". Verona is 400 km (or 4h car ride) away and a lot of people asked me why do I go so far for a race. OTOH Americans or Australians or Russians (I think) won't blink twice, if they have to go race (or go sightseeing) 400 km away.
  9. So, I did it again. This year I went to Verona in Italy. It's really beautiful city, I recommend it, just it can be crowded around "Juliet's balcony" (Juliet form Romeo&Juliet and yes I know that the balcony is "fake", but when in Verona ...). So, the marathon. It went better than the first one, my fastest 5 km time was from 30 - 35 km, but then I hit the wall pretty hard around 38 km. I stopped and walked at 40 km, but managed to pull myself together for last 2k. My legs very pretty beaten up, but fortunately my mind was still pretty OK and I was able to pull my finisher scream at the end, so that was nice. And day latter I feel fine, no problem, except the legs are stiff and walking down the stairs is awkward, which is small problems compare to last year. So, can't wait for the next one. Time in the spoilers:
  10. I don't know if this is sarcasm or not, but if I offend you, sorry, I'm pretty grumpy right now, cause the scene didn't sit well with me and also it's quite late here (so I should probably head to bed).
  11. Sure, you got me here. I was thinking about direct killing, but yeah if we include all the "indirect" killing it is pretty common occurrence in the books/show. It's probably the scene, it just doesn't feel right and it probably clouds all the discussing about it. I'm probably more disappointed with the writers that "forced" Rheanys into the situation than with Rheanys for her actions.
  12. 1.) I prefer to be fired, than dead. 2.) And killing hundreds is less egregious and senseless crime? Come on ...
  13. I know and I strongly disagree with this sentiment and it's even worse in the show. Defending killing hundreds just because there is possibility that one figurehead will die? Nonsense. Let's then defend Otto's proposal to kill Rheanyra and her family, it would be less bloody ...
  14. And? How is not doomed Rhaenyra better than killing hundreds of people?
  15. Really, I didn't notice, I thought that most people that tend to like this kind of character choose Deamon as their guy.
