I'll throw in some fun ones. Three Starks are dead, one lost his/her face, one is turning into a tree, one is a zombie, and one is fighting for rule of the kingdom. You figure out who is who.

Does that include Benjen? P

GoT, TPB... tons of shows --- I have not owned a TV since 1998. The last series I watched was Lexx that went out in 2002 (and MST3K before that).

What's going on?





You missed both Charlie Jade and Deadwood and you should feel bad.

Dragons is crap and tbh reads very much like the last few WoT series - author has completely lost control and is engaged in an orgy of peripheral POV chapters no-one cares about just to churn out pages of pulp. The editors on GoT & WoT really need to reconsider their money sucking sycophant-today-isms before they corrupt good authors prone to rambling. It's too late in the series to insert this midseason waffling as a hook for later on. It's just babble. Wait for the TV series I reckon, Hollywood doesn't wait. GRRM is an established TV writer - and not unaware of his age - if he's got drafts the series is probably already complete. They might spend the remaining time adding some nudity for, ye know, immersion >.>

Except Hodor, who becomes Hodor the First, and rules all of Westeros under a people's republic. His daughter, Hodor the Second, goes on to conquer the free cities and the dothraki.

Also, I wonder what happened to the OP? Usually they post at least something in their own thread. Twisted

To be fair, GRRM once said that he had considered that as an option for the middle of Winds of Winter, and the rest of the series would just be an 800 page description of the snow falling on their corpses.

But, does Hodor even have ehrhm functional reproductive organs? And Bran has never used them either tbf so. How will they work it out <.<

Maybe they should just let the land be reclaimed by the Direwolves?

I seem to recall that the comment on them in the GoT is actually taken straight from the book.

that should make it really hard for anything bad to happen to him

Yeah, I get distinct animal farm vibes from Hodor in general.

Which is fine Shocked

Mainstream porn should be, inclusive, and make everyone cringe in shame if they are dim enough to watch with family. That's the whole point of the 9pm watershed fgs.

The whole Jon thing is when I switched off tbh. Actually I snorted and said outlight, "riiiight, ok" - a hook too far.

Seriously. I walked in on it. Saw some naked dude on top of another naked dude in bed. Said WTF? And left.

Good drama is one thing. Gross sexual explicity is another. Im not willing to compromise one for the other. Turned off my cable not long afterwards. Gross!


if you like, there are girl scenes too

everyone has their thing... some like guys some like girls, doesn't matter really since its down to personal preference

There is a new way of griefing in EVE for those who are unaware: The posting of Game of Thrones spoilers in various chat channels.

We have players joining corps just to "AWOX" them with spoilers. Main trade hubs have people spamming spoilers over and over again. I've even see a player request that others check out his bio, only for their to be a spoiler.

CCP, take action here please. Muting these players as punishment is not enough. Giving them a warning so they walk away with a smile and never do it again is not enough. Send a strong message here and please release a statement warning these players in advance that any deliberate posting of spoilers for the sake of pissing off others will be met with a swift ban of all accounts for X amount of time.

To keep things in perspective, I've had only 2 episodes spoiled. It's more the principle really, and knowing I'll actively avoid reading local chats in main trade hubs over this fiasco to avoid anything further. This is why I'm calling for immediate bans to these players. They are as toxic as can be when it comes to promotion of the social aspects of EVE.

It's gotten so bad in fact, I refuse to read any of the replies in this thread out of fear that one of these people will use it as an opportunity to post more spoilers. I've also disabled my communications on this character entirely to make sure no one PM's me a spoiler due to my posting of this thread. That's right CCP; that is how bad it has gotten.



Snape kills Dumbledore.


Oh... Wait... Wrong spoiler..


Game of Thrones is trash almost on par with those awful vampire shows.

Maybe we don't like it because it's a crappy, half-baked tv show made by idiots for idiots?

Don't know where you're from, but I assure that this drivel is not "cool" where I come from.

Just so you know, it's actually a TV show based on a series of books. Books are something you don't see in shows like jersey shore so you're probably still confused. You can try googling it, if you can stop searching for snooki pictures long enough
