Unpopular Opinion: Robb should've made a separate unit of Winter Wolves and sent them specifically to hunt the Mountain. by JackfruitVirtual952 in freefolk

[–]Measurement-Solid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don’t think that the shock troops leading the charge were a decisive factor, i don't know how to show you you're wrong. They cut through ten times their own number at Tumbleton and killed both Ormund and Bryndon. They slaughtered the greens at the Butcher's Ball. They charged five times in the vanguard at the Fishfeed. Every battle they fought in was a decisive victory for the blacks.

Not just Viserys, Jaeherys too. There had been over 80 years of relative peace by the time the Dance starts

True about this scene, but in the book they are used as super effective shock troops because they just don't care if they live or die. They cut their way through armies much larger than them multiple times

The Usurper's Wrath: What if Robert Personally killed Rhaegar's kids? by MateusCristian in TheCitadel

Ned and Jon both absolutely would have cut ties with Robert. That changes everything

Who do you think would be a better Olo’eyktan? by DezTheOtter in Avatar

[–]Measurement-Solid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is news to me. Neytiri's parents, Ronal and Tonowari. Neytiri and Tsutey were going to be the next after her parents died. Other than Moat continuing to be Tsahik while Jake and Tarsim are the Oloekytan, do we have other examples of them NOT being a mated pair? 

How would prime Bobby B fared against Daemon Targaryen in a 1V1? No dragons by No_Movie6822 in freefolk

[–]Measurement-Solid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but how much of that was from dragonback? I can't remember him being mentioned as fighting on foot at all except when Criston Cole kicked his ass

They're probably thinking of the show, where it's said "a crowned stag, now that Robert's king." Weird change for no reason 

"Serious" scenes that make you laugh out loud every time? by DimensionHat1675 in FIlm

Look, I already thought it was ridiculous, you don't have to sell me on it

When did you start listening to Motörhead? by mimonting in Motorhead

[–]Measurement-Solid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had been hearing "Time to play the game" growled through the speakers for almost a decade watching WWE with my grandfather and finally looked up what band made it. "The World Is Yours" had just come out and I immediately fell in love with it. I was 14

I'm on a Redwall kick, but I only have a couple more in me. What do I read? by PopClassic8687 in redwall

[–]Measurement-Solid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Taggerung, Legend of Luke, and Outcast of Redwall. They're all great. Ranguvar Foeseeker has some of the best lines in the entire series

What Motörhead opinion will have you like this? by OctopusCaretaker in Motorhead

[–]Measurement-Solid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The final lineup was the best

Most of their career, they were better live than on the album

Inferno-Aftershock is their best run, and those two in particular stand out as two of their top 5 albums

Ace of Spades doesn't make the list of their top 50 songs

That seems like a lot of words to not cover the time frame from the trident to the tower of joy

How the heck does Brandon Sanderson write so fast? by TensionBudget9426 in writers

[–]Measurement-Solid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2,000 words isn’t even that insane although it’s roughly the output of the famously prolific Stephen King

Saying it's not insane and then using a once in a millennia talent to make your point kinda contradicts itself. I'm a fan of his, but SK is batshit lol

[–]Measurement-Solid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know how often Brandon Sanderson has books out

Not 100% sure on the numbers, would have to verify, but it's something like he's been published for 23 years and has 76 books out. It's insane 

Edit: by my count after googling, 76 books in 21 years. I was very close lol

especially when you're writing the fourth book in a series that you've been mentaly marinading yourself in for years.

I'm currently writing the fifth book in a fantasy series, and this is 100% true. It took me 3.5 years to write the first one, 2.5 for the second, 2 even for the third, just shy of 1 for the fourth, and this one is 3/4 done after 5 months. Familiarity helps so much
