The writers have made it very clear that if it doesn't happen on screen, it didn't happen.

Do they need to spell everything out for you? I guess so.

Khalid, this season has shown more than any other season that the show is no longer doing subtle character interactions.
The characters do exactly what they say they will do, however retarded it is for the context of the situation. The plot is being manipulated in order to create the scene they want rather than the scene being used to fit the plot if that makes sense.
Back to the tunnel thing its weird though. Why did Maester Luwin know about it but none of the Starks did? I guess Ned never thought it would be useful information for some of his children to have.

The insanity of some of the nitpicking is just absurd. We have 20 different plots going on in this show, sometimes you just have to use your brain and realize that some things are being handled offscreen and the writers assume you are smart enough to figure it out.
If you think Dany not burning the fleet is bad writing, because you assume that since Tyrion didn't tell Dany on the screen that it didn't happen, then you are a fucking idiot.

Oh I freely admit that it was wildly exaggerated nitpicking. My jimmies are just still rustled from them completely destroying Jon as an important character.

Nah. It is really easy to see how absurd Gavin's complaint is, since he has set it up to be able to bitch about it either way.
Gavinmad thinks something is bad writing because an obvious interaction that had to happen wasn't put on screen, due to them apparently giving up subtlety. If it had been put on screen though, he would be complaining that it was obvious and pointless and not subtle.

If you are talking about the Sansa "LISTEN TO ME" "OH WAIT, I HAVE NOTHING", yeah, that shit was pretty hilariously bad.

Basically nothing, but claiming that Dany didn't know about her ships being destroyed because we didn't get a scene specifically showing her learning about her ships being destroyed is taking that a bit far.
She tried to tell him not to do exactly what he did. And he even used rickon.
You cocksucker.

All kinds of things were done offscreen, hell, this season has advanced plots faster than any other. Just to pick one that people bitched about and wanted to see more of, how Margaery decided to team up with Tommen and the Faith Militant. Then they later on spelled it out explicitly with the Rose, though even that could have been a scam.
According to half these morons there was a huge amount of Sansa "playing the game" that was handled off screen.

They showed her resolve and what she was up to in the scene with her brother in the dungeon.

There better be a payoff for the biggest swerve of the entire story when his parentage is revealed. If the only thing that comes of it is congrats you're a blackfyre instead of a snow it will have been a lot of blue balling for nothing. If it's nothing more than to get him on a dragon it's still a let down. Hopefully it pushes him to something other than reluctant hero. Conflict with Dany over her Muslim/Mongol invasion from someone with legit claims would be nice. Wishful thinking but if it's revealed to the other characters at the end then who really cares in the first place, story's already over. Making us wait when we already know would be lame.
You are back to knuckle dragging again. We know she sent the hail Mary raven. These morons and you think that Sansa and LF had Snapchat and were communicating some plot to not tell Jon that he was hiding in her tent.
