About to hit the 5000 post mark on the old thread, the first season 7 trailer today seems like the right time to start the final Game of Thones thread.
I'm going back to the original rules pre-2015. I don't think we need supervision or bannings. Just don't be a dick. Post anything you find online that hasn't aired yet inside of spoiler tags. That's pretty much it. I think we can all handle that...
J-Snow_"So, the maesters in oldtown cured your grayscale?"
Mormont- "Yeah. Actually it was this wimpy novice that did it."
J-Snow-"Was he a fat fuck, always sounding whiny, goes by Sam?"
Mormont-"That's him."
J-Snow- "You're welcome" [Reply]

It's ludicrously simplistic compared to GRRM's style of scheming.
Felt exactly the same way. I don't get why they need Cersei's help at all.
Send a dragon north of the wall and burn the hordes of undead.
Whole thing seemed manufactured as you pointed out. [Reply]

Ever since the Ice King put his mark on Bran he's been in his head. [Reply]

She wanted to illustrate to Jaime that ol' faithful Bronn is only faithful to the $, and that only she was his one true ally. Then she slaps Jaime with the "i'm pregnant now kiss me" crap.
I don't believe that's correct. I don't recall if she knew about it before it happened, but she specifically said she was going to punish Bronn and didn't say anything about paying him. [Reply]

Did he do any power up shit to the crows, or did Bran just freak out when he realized the Night King could "see" him and lost his hold on the birds? [Reply]

The Night King waved his hand at the birds as if he was using The Force to knock them out of the sky. I take that as we're too assume he has magical powers. [Reply]
