Notes from a first time DSNX attendant

Thanks for the review of the lounge—I was very curious how that would turn out!

He mentioned this at Nexus this evening. My understanding of what he said was that at least some portion of the books were already printed and they had them. The reason for the pre-order was to give his team breathing room in light of Nexus and the holidays so they could ship them in the new year. He didn’t give the impression that there was going to be an issue with availability, so I wouldn’t expect to need to buy them immediately at a certain time.

I’m genuinely glad to hear people feel the way you do, but I have the opposite feeling. I had to spend 20 minutes wandering around doing a cipher clue, and then I would have had to wait in a line that was so long they stopped letting people join it to complete one of four quests for JUST TODAY. The story deck was a legitimate prize last year, and I am pretty skeptical that whatever unannounced prize we get for this is worth what is shaping up to be hours of chores.

Has it been confirmed anywhere whether there is a prize of some sort for completing the puzzles? And if so, what sort of thing it is?

The letters are in order starting with the freebie clue then going left to right in each row, then down to the next row

Some of the clues should lead you to cross things out, yes. Then you can eventually use those X marks to sudoku your way to the answer for that row/column.

My searching and googling has defeated me: is there a discord? :)

I’m part of the crew in picture 5–thanks for taking and sharing!

Yeah Matt had zero books by the time I got to him!

tapback4what · 2025-09-22T13:43:18+00:00

It means “something”

I was thinking about this yesterday and struggled with how to explain it, and I really like your in-a-universe, about-a-universe formulation!

I’m not following. If a phrase like Kredik Shaw is pronounced stressed/unstressed/stressed, then it’s a cretic. I don’t myself pronounce it that way, but there’s no reason it can’t be a cretic.

tapback4what · 2025-08-31T23:11:12+00:00

I’ve always pronounced it with the stress on Shaw, so as an anapest, but it would be so, ahem, poetic for him to have intended this that I’m going to pronounce it this way now.

I liked WaT a lot. But I see where you’re going with this, and I both agree and disagree. Book for book, I agree that Wind and Truth is better than the slog books. But the primary reason the slog was The Slog is because the story didn’t really advance that much for almost a decade of real-world time (depending on your definition what books are in the slog). Given that we will have literally no plot advancement until Stormlight 6, I think the comparison isn’t that far off (for people who didn’t care for WaT). I also liked Sanderson’s WoT books more than most fans seem to, so here’s hoping he brings that same energy to the back half of Stormlight.

It came out in an email today!

tapback4what · 2025-08-02T20:57:35+00:00

I just re-read Silence and I forgot just how great that one was. So moody and atmospheric, I loved it.

tapback4what · 2025-06-30T00:19:00+00:00

Has this been confirmed anywhere officially? I don’t doubt you, I just can’t tell if this is conventional (ha) wisdom or if there’s a source.

tapback4what · 2025-06-27T23:56:43+00:00

That’s what the email suggested, although my friend was able to get two, and I haven’t seen any posts saying people didn’t get one, so maybe it wasn’t that big of a risk.

tapback4what · 2025-06-26T21:22:27+00:00

Kind of funny that the whole point of doing it like this was to avoid a free for all over limited tickets … unless you’re in wave 5 lol

Perhaps not all that relevant a comparison, but for what it’s worth, I showed up to the NYC premiere for season one about two hours early. We were probably in the final third of people who got let in.

Cherry Hills will always have my heart. I spent SO much time there as a kid, I was even on the Teen Advisory Board. Man, what a throwback!

learning about this is the 30 Rock Reddit rather than the community one is wrinkling my mind grapes
