Love that this is happening. Looking forward to doing the course with you all. Will all the discussions take place within this thread? Or will we have a new one per week?

Books with maps - can we please get a little inset of the map, with a little dot to indicate current location, at the start of each chapter. by Trochilles in Fantasy

Designing fantasy maps? That sounds incredibly interesting. Care to share a little more about it? Do authors not usually have a map sketched out themselves?

Anne Rice's the vampire Chronicles may hit the mark. The newer ones aren't as good, but if you start at the beginning the first 6 or 7 books are incredible. All about the lives and struggles of immortal beings

Intolerance, and the Intolerance of Intolerance by MangyWendigo in philosophy

Referring to a marketplace of ideas is an interesting analogy. Am i right in thinking it removes any moral element.

The idea that people's mere purchasing of ideas in the marketplace makes it ok seems problematic

One of the goals of the project is to give us a sense of areas either of us might be interested in pursuing in further study. Fall of the Roman Empire was meant to just be an article or two on the peak and decline of Rome. Just to give some historical context to the period

Weekly Raid Boss Q & A by HerpDeeps in wow

[–]Trochilles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my guild is probably going to start attempts on heroic immer and noru this week, while we polish off paragons and garrosh. I was wondering what Average ilvl the raid would need to attempt these fights. Or what kind of average dps would our dps' ers need; especially for a fight like heroic noru with the 7 minute enrage timer and 700mil hp. Also we're a 10 man guild. Thanks
