jagilki Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Is Tormund OK? He didn't.... do anything drastic, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ded As Ned Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I'm sure/hope he's just busy... and/or it's so bad he just can't go on. We have to be optimistic here. You can't call the cops for like 3 days to file a missing online identity report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicked Woodpecker of West Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Dear fellow Tairy-bashers, I have thiz littla question.I was reading archival topics about Tairy, one by one, month by one, full of joy (BBHN) and then after Goodkind XVI I found Goodkind XVIII.Hasn't there been Goodkind nr. 17 by some mistake, or maybe it was hidden under some different title just like Goodkind XI.Sincerely yoursWWW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinDonner Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I know we lost at least one topic from mod-deletion. Maybe it was that one? Hard to remember so far back and among so many... :crying:Do the last few posts in 16 give any clues as to what we were thinking of calling the next one? We used to have a vote on it sometimes.

Wicked Woodpecker of West Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Aye you're right. I used google instead of asoiaf search engine and there it is "Goodkind XVII: It's Not Over Until Kahlan Gets Laid".Now what have you done to provoka Modus Irae?! Or maybe better I shouldn't ask about it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinDonner Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 If there's clues, they'll probably be in the subsequent thread, as we all bewailed the loss of the last one. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicked Woodpecker of West Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Hmmm... hard to say. Beginning of G00DKIND 18 doesn't seems to be especially mournful.I guess, not much chances that someone preventively saved assasinated topic before Modus Irae...

Darth Richard Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 If I remember correctly, someone started getting erm, a bit too personal in their, um, antics.Basically, they started bringing other sites/blogs into it, which is a forum NO-NO.

Wicked Woodpecker of West Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Just so. I have the same idea, few times in earlier topics mods were lecturing people for bashing Tairy all over the Internet in ASOIAF name...Pity, pity...

Emo Jon Snow Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I don't know why, but I've taken it upon myself to read this new "book"About halfway through and the story thus far has been about Richard badgering the shit out of some 15 year old girl, despite the fact that she's been right about everything, Richard still feels the need to harass and belittle a 15 year old girl and also the entire village she is from, this is also despite the fact that they saved Richard and Kahlan from being killed. Richard and 15 year old girl then proceed to have a conversation that lasts about 150 pages, about this new mysterious magic that doesn't work with the magic already in the world and the impeding zombie apocalypse.I've left off with what I am assuming is an almost 30 year old Richard about to go questing alone in the woods with this 15 year old girl, which isn't at all weird or anything.

Antonius Pius Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Or Tairy simply doesn't do aging. Maybe at the end of the series Richard Cypher just wakes up with an odd-looking vine imprinted on his face, having suffered a long and bloody, speech- and almost-rape-infested dream featuring a woman with traveling pants and a white dress.

Jaxom 1974 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Much like the characters ability to travel vast distances in short amounts of time because Tairy doesn't do maps, the entire series, in reality, takes place over the course of one long weekend...

Darth Richard Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Is it my wishful thinking, or did this one disappoint sales wise compared with the others? I think it debuted at no 5 on the NYT, which of course isn't exactly "doing poorly" but I remember all the previous ones being instant #1s, even The Omen Machine. B&N doesn't have any giant displays for it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
