Damn, bitchassness alert. Here's another idea: Instead of making yourselves look like *****, stay out of the thread if you can't handle people explaining things in the show, it's not hard.

Completely agree. A 2nd thread was created for specifically this reason.

Crusader Kings II is currently 75% off on steam right now.

I'd agree under most circumstances, but all he did was explain the difference between wight and white walker. No big deal imo. I haven't read the books btw.

[Giantsfan1080]

I understand that but there's still no point in them even coming into this thread. If it hasn't been in the show yet I don't want to know about it. I don't care if it's important or not.

However it has made references to their connection, that graphic just makes things a little more clear. It exposes nothing about story, just clarifies something already mentioned. If you want specifics of when they're mentioned in the series, in the very opening scene we see the wights serving along the white walkers, and in the episode The Pointy End, "Sam says he read in a book that the dead are animated by the touch of the White Walkers and only fire can destroy such creatures." So yeah, like I was saying, its been explained in the show, those two graphics just clarify.

Again, not explicitly explained in the show does not equal spoiler.

And TH, no that doesn't spoil anything.

it was in the show, dudes on the horses were clearly commanding the walking dead

I'm not talking about that specific instance. It's just in general I just don't understand the need for them to be in this thread.

[fenikz]

well i think someone said spoiler when there was no spoiler then everyone freaked out and its ruining this thread

[comahan]

Look, I havent read the books, and if someone spoiled something for me, id ******* murder them. As far as I know, I havent murdered anybody yet. Nothing thats been posted even raised my eyebrow. I knew everything except the name of Bolton's bastard.

But Ive also whored the HBO Thrones Character Guide, which I assume most of you havent. It's spoiler free, but gives interesting background info and stuff like that about the characters.

But yea, if anyone spoils anything, ill infract the **** out of them, and JBond will have to stop me from outright banning them.

The same thing happened in the other thread. The blind crusade against all posts made by bookreaders just comes of as ignorant. Crying wolf whenever any one of us makes a post regarding the show helps no one. We watch the show, we like to talk about it as well, most of the show discussion has moved to this thread, and at least I'm careful enough to know what has been revealed and what has not been. The fact that we're going through this charade again is sad.

Probably because there are only like two of them and they have nobody to talk to. There are no spoilers, what's the problem?

Would you mind just being the go to guy for any perceived spoilers? As in people send you a PM/report a post, and you judge/handle it? Hopefully that will prevent this thread becoming cluttered with empty accusations/baseless complaints of spoilers. No one enjoys it, and so far it has been for no reason.

Also, where'd you find your sigil, and why'd you have to take House Lannister?

[comahan]

Found it on google pics, cropped it and stuck a border on it. Did the same for vidae with his House Stark sig.

And because 3 of my 4 favorite characters (Tyrion, Tywin, Jaime) are Lannisters. Cersei is also an amazing character, but shes just completely unlikeable.

As far as being the go-to guy for spoilers, im mixed. I really, REALLY dont want anything ruined for me, as Thrones might be my favorite show ever. But I assume people wont be complete assholes and spoil big events, so I dont suppose it can hurt. I dont know, I just dont want people hinting at any sort of future events in any posts.

Seeing someone say something like "Wait til you see Jaime's storyline in season 3!" before giving a vague hint about it makes me want to punt an ostrich. If we can avoid stuff like that, I'll be happy.

Just use common sense to post. If I think its too much, ill delete it. If you outright spoil something big though, Ill ban the **** out of you :)

[Giantsfan1080]

That's very fair Commy.

Could you do me one for House Targaryen at some point?

It's weird... Tyrion is my favorite character and Tywin is a boss.
(I really enjoyed the Arya and Tywin segment. )
Jaime is a great character but I can't get over him pushing the boy from the window. (So I hate him)
Cersei... another great character but I hate EVERYTHING about her. EVERYTHING!
And since technically Joffrey is a Lannister...I hate him more than everyone.
(It's a tie between Joffrey and Theon Greyjoy on who I want dead most)

So when I see Lannisters mentioned, I immediately think negatively.

[comahan]

You have no idea how much I hated Cersei after the Direwolf stuff at the end of episode 2. Good god I wanted to strangle her.

[sbh15]

aw screw you guys I want a cool crest but the only one left is Baratheon which is full of incest and ****** Joffrey

[Gay Ork Wang]

just according to the wiki. I'm not very good with who's in what house.
