It was a solution to SoW-kiting, which was never an issue in WoW.

I make no claim to this, was linked on Slack.

That gave me a sensible chuckle

Yeah Sam's NightWatch days seem to have been absolved and he is the rightful Lord as well as the only academic that is willing to deal with these Yahoos. Old Town should have been repped though.

Yeah I was going 'who the fuck is thi... oh shit THAT's Robin Arryn?' I guess there might be some advantages to breast feeding until the age of 10

WTF is Gendry even lord of at this point? Between all the various Baratheon civil and other wars I doubt there's anyone even left in the Stormlands to rule (other than Brienne who goes off to protect Bran in the Kingsguard)

That would have made a lot more sense. It would also help explain the onset of paralysis that brings the conclave together in the Dragon Pit. Greyworm would be totally out of his depth at that point and stuck in a feedback loop of 'what the fuck do I do now?'

Perhaps all the stuff with Melisandre served to show that there really are no gods. The prophecy she is intent on serving the interest of is garbage and the guy she rezzes, while he does stuff and 'breaks the wheel' is no Azor Ahai. She was just a fire sorceress whose belief fueled her power...

Yeah he does, and it seems likely that Tyrion was at least nominally aware of this fact when he sent him up there.

They are worried about the budget to rebuild a navy but not the budget to rebuild the entirety of Kings Landing? Who cleaned up the Red Keep? Is the thing even structurally sound? Sam got a couple of pity rings from Old Town via correspondence school for transferred real life credit? I...

Daario makes out like a bandit I suppose. He gets Slaver's Bay to himself provided he didn't fuck it up after Dany nuked the Masters navy. The Night's Watch makes no damn sense given the lack of Night King and the presence of a huge goddamn hole in the wall, but I suppose it's a good place to...

The throne did kill her. It was her obsession and led to ruin. Drogon was the smartest guy in the room. Glad to see they picked up on GRRMs original outline for a sequel where Arya goes looking for what's West of Westeros.

I suppose the restriction on armor kits benefits those builds which don't consume an armor kit when it's used. But that just seems like a silly bit of RNG to throw in.

A lot depends on what part of the country you are in. It was standard in the Midwest to have fresh burgers at all fast food joints when I was a kid. The supply chain was short enough owing to the overall locality of meat production that it made this possible. The first time I had one of the...

McDs still cant seem to get the supply chain kinks worked out for the fresh burgers. I would have thought by now that they would be able to expand it beyond the quarter pounders to include Big Macs etc, but they still end up falling back on using the 'emergency' supply of frozen patties during...

Well hey, at least we have a new Apparel Project season...

This casting is acceptable

Title: His Dark Materials Genre: Drama, Sci-Fi & Fantasy First aired: 2019-12-31 Cast: Dafne Keen, Ruth Wilson, James McAvoy, Clarke Peters, Richard Cunningham, Tyler Howitt, Ian Peck, Lin-Manuel Miranda Overview: Lyra is an orphan who lives in a parallel universe in which science...

I don't understand the idea where developers think that offering such a radically different gameplay is a good idea. Nothing up to this point has really been structured around a consistent team of 4 working together or even anything that requires coordinating skills / builds / etc. So going...

I just looked at the casting and didn't realize that guy was supposed to be Jafar... he doesn't look like an all powerful sorcerer, he looks like a tax accountant.

I'd rather they include the matchmaking feature to at least allow people the chance to meet others who they can tackle the raid with. Some chance is better than zero chance because I don't even know 8 people in the game much less have a way to get them all in the same place to do the raid.

I mean to be fair he's always been more of a Moses than a Jesus....

it does kind of look like they just had some cameras filming a Disney parade in one of the parks vs. an actual production.

You probably don't know their names, but 30 years ago, they saved Europe. A Chernobyl 'suicide squad' of volunteers helped save Europe — here's their amazing true story Interesting that there seems to be conflicting information on this. The second link is the more recent and, presumably...

The clip doesn't go as far as the slaves, servants and flunkies so no idea there. They replaced "brush up your sunday salaam" with "brush up your brideday salon" and "genuflect show some respect" with "show some respect, boy genuflect" to make it more 'urban'. There's also the "when it...

Well that's fuckery then. There's virtually no way to actually meet people in the game outside of the match-making function. Bads and quitters seem to get weeded out pretty easily and replaced when doing Challenge level strongholds so I don't see why they wouldnt give it as an option at least.

The raid looks cautiously interesting. Do we know if the match-making function will be active for the raid?

i mean there are shitty Northerners... we know this for a fact. They aren't the Justice League of Winterfell. Hell after the White Walkers they probably have a higher percentage of assholes left since all the good guys would have sacrificed themselves against the undead. You wouldn't see any...

They should have just gotten Billy Porter or some other queen to do the Genie and camped it the fuck up vs this milquetoast bullshit

They released a clip of Prince Ali and it's a train wreck. It lacks all life and personality and they went full retard with lyric changes.

Well the whole schtick of the epic has been about subverting narrative expectations so no reason why this wouldn't extend all the way to long arcs.

I am eager to hear more about this spinoff. I know I shouldnt get my hopes up, but 5000 years ago is right at the start of all the Valyrian / Andals / Children of the Forest / Old Ghis / etc. things that seem so much more high fantasy. I would very much like to see a fantasy show about...

They shipped over the legion that had been earmarked for downsizing after a particularly troublesome quarter. Hence 'no elephants'.

Yet I would pay serious money for an outtake of Conleth Hill saying exactly that.

I just hope we manage to avoid a "5 years later..." type of shift part way into the episode

Take a 3D tour of the massive King’s Landing set They really did a great job with the filming of this episode in terms of making use of that set to really convey a lot going on. Its certainly not a small set but its far smaller than you might think from how much it was used. Impressive also...

Dalaran is perfection. When I first stepped into it I knew it was going to be hard to ever top and I was right. Hell they ended up re-using it in Legion because it is so damn perfect from a gameplay standpoint.

"Game Of Thrones" Season 8, Episode 5 Was Really, Really Bad And People Are Upset It seems like a lot of people are really angry that this didn't turn out like the fairytale they wanted it to be. I'm not saying the writing is stellar by any means, but it seems clear that people saw what they...

Think of it as an advanced magical plasma beam that is so intense that it just happens to ignite the oxygen in the air around it so it looks like he's "breathing fire" AKA Godzilla Physics
