    Patch time today extended by one hour, I am guessing Luclin launch for Phinny accidentally enabled. HAH! EDIT: Downtime extended with no ETA....Luclin confirmed! Just like when it launched for real back in the day!!!!

    Sushi Go is one of my favorites, always fun to screw someone with the chopsticks at the end, heheh. And never neglect the puddings!!!!

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I haven't read alot of Wildcards, but I have read most of GRRM's other stuff - his short stories, the Haviland Tuf stories, Fevre Dream. It is all excellent and worth reading. It also hammers home the fact that GRRM is a scifi writer first and foremost, and I think that the success of ASoIaF...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Whelp, you know when an episode starts with 'previously on GoT' and they show the scene where Sam finds it, it is about to become extremely important. They have a done a pretty good job with that, using those quick 'previously..' snippets to remind you of random one-off things or people that...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Hell, even when Melisandre was a POV character, we see that she doesn't even know how most of it works, just that it does, and she spices it up with parlor tricks to make it look flashy.

    Step Son Joining Air Force, Advice?

    if you have any questions about the MEPS experience, let me know, I've been doing it a long time. The ASVAB is the easy part (though it still disqualifies an appalling amount of our youth); depending on medical history, getting past the doc can be a much, much rougher experience. I haven't run...

    Someone in my guild said this was definitely happening this weekend but I can find no confirmation of it. Didn't they announce the last one the Wednesday before? I really hope it happens, the fact I am not yet 60 is embarrassing as all hell. I am levelling up with people's 3rd and 4th alts lol.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    That would be awesome, it won't be so weird then when she armors up like her sisters and mother, grabs a bigass Valyrian steel mace and defeats the army of the dead AND the White Walkers by herself while giving stern, rousing speeches.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    That is why I am starting to think this is going to end with Tyrion (currently 2nd in line of Baratheon succession behind Cersei and Jaime) on the throne, bringing peace to the realm with his long-ago marriage to Sansa Stark, and Dany either sacrificing herself or not taking the throne at all...

    Well, they have plenty less actors and actresses to pay now too....heheh.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Hah, so it turns out that Cersei really is Tommen's heir - not because she is Tommen's mother, but because - due to a marriage several generations prior - she is the oldest living trueborn Baratheon. Well, technically it would be Jaime, as women can't inherit, she kind of pissed on that bit...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Same way Robert Baratheon became king, he had no claim. By seizing it. Different means, but seizing it all the same; she controls the only army in town through Jaime, very similar to how Ned Stark got brushed aside and screwed over despite Robert naming him Lord Protector or whatever until...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Jaime would be I think, as Tommen threw him off the Kingsguard, so his rights are no longer forfeit...and as Jaime commands the Lannister army, I doubt anyone would press the matter with him anyway.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I think Mad Queen Cersei is going to be in full bloom when she finds massive armies moving on her from the every direction except the north, which may move a hostile army down after all if Cersei sends Jon a mean tweet or something. Her primary advisor is Dr. Qyburnstein, her best friend is a...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I guess it is possible she could get ambushed by Euron en route or something and ends up losing most of her fleet before it lands, resulting in her landing with a much more stoppable force, but that would be pretty bad. They may span 10 years, but I think it is more likely that Sam finds...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I can see Arya linking up with the Hound/Beric heading north, and Mel falling in with that group as well as she heads south. Until Davos finds her and guts her like a fish. I do think Mel was correct about that; she was really only wrong about one thing - Stannis - and that led her to...

    I think Sansa is going to serve as kind of Jon's Hand and end up contending with Littlefinger.

    Garlan Tyrell probably, Loras' older brother. Also has a younger one, Willas, who was crippled by Oberyn Martell. Though neither are in the show, so no idea; it looked very much like Olenna was in control.

    Yeah, I can't really fault Sophie Turner, she has done great portraying Sansa's arc from bitchy spoiled princess to scared shitless survivor to nascent ruthless leader pretty well.

    You should part with some of those bastards for a random bard who you don't know and has absolutely no connection to you or your guild. Yes, that is a fantastic plan!!!!! I am trying to coordinate my guild to kill trak when I have a day off work so I can sit there and camp that stupid UDB...

    Pretty sure that was Smalljohn. Now I wonder if Jon is going to take that army south to exact a bit of vengeance on the Freys, or if he stands pat and starts getting ready for the Night King.

    Heroquest is still a favorite at the gaming table I frequent - it makes the rounds at least once or twice per year. Sometimes, the old ones are the best, even had a game of old school Runebound last weekend.

    Ramsay gonna Ramsay - if he sets one foot out of that castle (and we see that he does) that is a massive tactical mistake. I am going to guess that Jon or Sansa goads him into bringing his force out on the field instead of just sitting tight and laughing as a tiny undisciplined force tries to...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It is another instance of Martin scratching the '5 year gap' that has left many storylines in very strange places. What you describe is exactly what Dany was supposed to be doing - learning to rule in Slaver's Bay while building her forces to assault Westeros. Now everything is rushed to all...

    What was it all about? I saw some chatter about a butthurt nerd pissed off over something in H1Z1 attacking all of Daybreak's game, but that was general chat and general chat's reliability is questionable at best.

    He knew all about Dany and was behind the scenes helping her - Jorah's reports went to Varys, after all. Book Varys just wants a Targaryen on the throne I think; perhaps he will help both Aegon AND Dany, expecting them to marry in the Targ West Virginia fashion. He is loyal to the Targaryens...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Alot of bad unexpected shit can still happen that leave both Jon and Sansa still alive; Littlefinger can totally kill both armies, toss Jon in a dungeon and forcibly marry Sansa, setting himself up in control of half of Westeros. Something bad almost has to happen, too much 'good' stuff...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I think one of the points of the high sparrow is that he is entirely a creation of Cersei - she pretty much acted on her own authority to arm the faith and give him ridiculous amounts of power, totally underestimating him because he was a dirty barefoot slob and she was a high and mighty...

    Probably because those were pretty much right from the book IIRC, hehe. Whole thing went pretty much the same except Brienne and Pod sailing away instead of Blackfish swimming away.

    That is what I assumed. Cersei going to nuke something, for sure. She pretty much has to because she is straight up fucked now.

    I think this is spot on - Tommen will definitely be killed here shortly, thus fulfilling the prophecy about Cersei that she will outlive her children (gold their crowns, gold their shrouds). She is going to assume the someone younger and more beautiful coming to cast her down is Margaery and...
