I might have misunderstood. Is Designer not a sub-series from the Creator theme? No, I think he just means a general topic for talking about LEGO designing. The Designers forum on the LMBs back in the day was just for that. Ah, I get it now. In that case, as I believe you suggested, LEGO General would be the place to go for that now. Have fun!

It wasn't particularly crude, just... boring. I also got pretty sick of Jordan's treatment of women as either inferior submissive creatures or nagging authority features. Apparently he based them off his wife I do feel as though that changes after a while, but yeah, although the first and second are some of his best, the books at the start just aren't as great as the later ones. The last three books have an amazing plotline, in fact even the last four or five have a much better story in my opinion. Maybe because he stops focussing on character build and actually moves the story forwards. Have you read anything by Brandon Sanderson? If you like the last three books the most and Androl is your favorite character, you really should.

The first few books aren't the easiest thing I've read I have had school and I have been vary busy and will be gone every weekend this month again. I found the wiki. I tryed to stay away but I all ready know to much. I just can't stop myself. I need to know whats going on, and what will happen. So I have defently runed some of it for me. Though its not as bad as when I looked at the timeline in the back of RotK to see if the ring was destroyed . When I was reading them and I saw something/someone that seemed like it might be important I always looked at the Wiki. I have a weird view of spoilers though, so it didn't bother me too much.

I would like to see LURP again if anyone else here is interested. You can try starting a RP in the main LEGO Universe forum if you like, and if there seems to be interest we will create a RP forum for it.

Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to read the Mistborn series, but I've read a few of his others and they were excellent. Have you read the Kingkiller Chronicles, by Patrick Rothfuss?

I haven't read Mistborn either because it's not at my library. I have not. The first two books are at my library, so maybe I'll give it a try when the last one comes out.

I just realised I never replied when you asked me if I had read the Kingkiller Chronicles. No, I haven't. Are they good?

But it's the Wheel of Time. Everyone is important somehow. You usually hear of a character more than once.
{JAMMERS! Wheel of Time Completers ONLY!} Like the village where they come back to life every day. After they escape you never expect to see them again. And then, in Tarmon Gai'don, my second favourite character, Matrim Cauthon calls them up to retake the dam at the top of the river.

I always mean to read some of his books but I always forget. Do you mean that there are more characters like him? Yes, but in addition, from what I've read, Sanderson was really the one who developed his character and not Jordan.

The first two books are at my library, so maybe I'll give it a try when the last one comes out. Unfortunately, the ext one isn't likely to come out any time soon. I'd heartily recommend you read the two as is. If you're a decently fast reader, it won't take you long, even though they're big books - it took me a day or two to read each.
