I don't know.
I also find it strange I only got one response to this thread:

kevinswatch.ihugny.com/phpBB2/viewtopic ... highlight=

Maybe the titles are too similar.
My 3rd Linden review for AATE is will be the final nail in my THOOLAH coffin I think.

BUT I still hope for a final return to Linden loathing in LD though!

I don't buy it because it wasn't explained or demonstrated to my satisfaction in the beginning therefore all of her actions on his behalf seem like a bad actress going through the motions according to a script, kick-ass and all.
My upcoming AATE Linden review will poit out something that might turn everything you believe about that upside down, I think.
It did to me anyway.

I didn't respond because I couldn't think of anything to say that I haven't already said. Which is essentially: you da man.

I disapprove of the conjoining of "Holy" and "Haters." Oxymoron. Plus it's obviously unholy and suborned by ravers.

Throughout history, "holy" and "haters" have gone together like peas and carrots. Don't stir our holy, hating wrath further, Lindenite.

Yes, quite typical of vacillating Averyites :P

Us THOOLAHites, on the other hand, are decisive and single-minded in our Holy Righteous Raging Hate!

That was possibly the greatest post I have ever read! Closely followed by the Fatal Revenant post.

I've read them all once so far, and I loved Linden in Runes and FR, and she gave me the ultimate shits in AATE - I'm really looking forward to the AATE review!

Me too, but Africa has yet to obtain a copy of AATE. I am hoping to have one arrive in the mail this year, but mail is a very unsure thing on this continent.

Of course it's a cult! Cults are always the best haters, right? Besides, cult could be a lot of things. Technically, we could all be a cult, for our obvious and outspoken enjoyment of SRD's books. Nobody would, but...
Anyways, THOOLAH's a cult, Linden stinks.

Heh! Damn you cracked me up.
Did you just get inspired after a weekend of watching those Cheerleader-competition movies?
