What will happen in book three: HOA.
« on: September 22, 2008, 05:24:45 AM »
Howdy,

I have read enough books to suspect that a major character will allmost always die; Kelsier in book one, there were a handful in book two. So the question remains, who will survive book three? Who won't...

I think i listed all the possible choices, including none for those deniers(probably the younger readers) and all for those of you who are probably slightly demented... :D!

To compliment the "the countdown" thread and any future releases of chapters, i set the "allow users to change vote," option on. So if anything arises that changes your mind, and or if Andrew, Chaose2651 or Ookla stumble upon a revelation of some sort, the option is there--i only ask that you explain the reasons behind the change.

So there it is, vote and explain yourself.

Can you make a poll that allows checkmark voting rather than radio-button voting?

I object on the basis that this poll has neither Ruin nor Preservation on it. Heck, there's not even an "all of them" option, though "more than one" is all right.

Sure, Ookla, i can try.

And for Chaos2651, All of them. Wouldnt that be catastrophic? Seriously, it would be total chaos...oh, ok i see.

Edit:

Ookla, im not sure how to do that exactly. If you could just tell me, and i'll get right on it.

Mmm... I'm not sure, but maybe make the "maximum votes per user" equal to the number of choices? Though, people could skew one answer... Maybe it's not possible.

I'm not one who thinks that all main characters will die in this book but I do think it is possable. Maybe in some major event. I for one do however think that at least two of these characters will die. I would assume that in HoA Marsh will still be under control but not entirely. I think there will be a constant battle inside of him over who is in control, him or Ruin. This battle will probably culminate in some decisive action taken by Marsh in a moment of control where he sacrifices himself for some greater goal. I am also of the mind to think that another supporting character will die, probably Breeze or Spook. Both characters under go a change in the final book that is pivotal to their character. Although I also feel that one of the major characters will die as-well (i.e. Vin, Elend, Sazed) I have yet to decide which one and why.

At least you think it didn't have Ruin or Preservation on it. And now one of them could be listed twice.

You... suck. You suck so much.

Also, you take far too much pleasure in that.

Doom.

 That is until the next book Brandon writes is set to drop and he harasses us all again with his insight. But at least for some time he will be no better than you or I.

Except that I've read Scribbler, and Way of Kings, and Dragonsteel, and Alcatraz 3...

I don't get to read AMoL though, alas. Of course, if I did get to, you wouldn't hear a peep about it from me. I can keep my mouth shut when it's in my own best interest.

Thought you said they were going to break it into two books, in which case it may be new to you too.
