re: Game of Thrones Season 3 Episode 2: Dark Wings, Dark Words - NO SPOILERS thread

Like I said in my edit what I said is completely different. There is no future knowledge in what I said. I told someone who a character was that just got passed over and would never know why he was there etc. it's just something they didn't want to waste time in.
It's not like I posted theories. Or hinted at what's gonna happen in the future.

My favorite part of the book reader threads is the book readers that think they place clever easter eggs in the non-reader thread. When honestly their just fricking up the experience for you guys. It's not clever to ask another reader a question in this thread, its a bad idea for readers to clarify plot points for non-readers. Ask plot points in a separate thread. Let the noobs have their wild arse guesses and lets all remember what it was like for us 10 years ago...
I'm a reader and while I'll lurk there's absolutely no reason for me to give any information in here because my perspective is tainted.

I don't think that has any substance personally. Saying he's related to old nan and telling someone that a character is " very " important kinda on different pages in my book. I'm sorry if someone didn't want to know why hodor does what he does etc. he's retarded. They didn't say that on the show but I said it here hope I didn't spoil anything
At this point it's as simple as asking yourself if they know that from just watching the show. If they don't, then it doesn't need to be said here and if they have additional questions they can venture over to the other thread.

I'd like to take this time to apologize to anyone who I did wrong by in saying hordor was related to old nan.
I didn't want to ruin anything for anyone
I completely agree with you belle. That was something so small and so irrelevant and would give people something to be like oh so that's where re re came from. That's why he's with bran.
I won't say anything again but felt like that's something that people should know that they didn't feel like taking time to put it in the show

so you couldn't figure out on your own that a character isn't finished right after you watched him get reintroduced into a new storyline. frick's sake you're touchy
sorry, cokes. meant for Tebow

Its simple you've started reading the books (Great!). Don't post in this thread at all. Read it for entertainment but don't post. Read all the books and join the book reader thread.
The show has it's own pace and story and while you might mention something thinking the show skipped it, so far they've gone back and filled in the holes in their own timing. The show is clearly designed to be a stand alone experience.
I haven't read the books for Dexter, but I hear they are excellent. I do know that the books and the show took a completely different angle on his sister's storyline, and both work.

i'm not as bothered by their info as others but i understand.
while jamie is touted as the best swordsman (or 2nd best) in the land i thought his battle with brienne was telling not as much for him being weakened or cuffed but i thought it actually showed her to be kind of a badass. no doubt jamie would probably get the better of her under other conditions but i like their scrap.
i would think jamie would do everything in his power to not be seen. if they were seen he'd be brought back to the starks or much worse, brienne succeding means he's brought back to his family safely. but he seems ambivalent to whether or not they are seen or caught. maybe it's just me. or maybe he's just such a badass/smartass he thinks he can get out of anything.

My point is you're bringing in info from the books, which this thread is not for. There is a thread for book discussion, a thread for the show for readers of the books, and this thread for people who watch the show only. This is the one thread where book information shouldn't be discussed. I'm not accusing you of spoiling anything, but it's been said time and time again that all book information should simply be left out of here. It's just the easiest way to avoid spoilers/potential spoilers. You posting seemingly innocuous information could lead to more being posted and more, etc. Just leave all of it out. shite, you even said "That's all you need to know.." before divulging more information from the books. If that's all we need to know, then just leave it at that.

I agree with you 100%, and wish all the readers were like you. TWD threads are the worst with the "I read the books so I will drop hints for nonreaders" bullshite. They don't understand that someone discussing their "theories" about what will happen, when those theories are based on shite they've already read in the comics, ruins shite for people who don't want to know anything about the books.
In the GoT threads, the situation is the same way since the show also based on literature.

What a waste of time...of course we're (nonreaders) gonna be more confused and have more questions, because we're new to the information a a whole.

I just started the second book. I have nothing to spoil in this thread. I'm as lost as everyone here.
It's amazing that I say when someone asks who hodor is and I say he's old Nan's retarded great grandson and its to much. But it's said ohhhh nooo the (a character) is supper duper important cant wait for you to see why and I'm the one that gets blasted. When I've done what I could to tell people to edit when they post theories from reading and stuff

Yeah, no doubt he would slaughter her under normal conditions, but even Jamie at like 60% is better than most. So for her to get the best of him, even in his condition, earns her some respect.

Agreed. And he even made the comments about being seen on the bridge. Yet when they got on the bridge, he pulls his bullshite and gets his showdown, only to be seen/found and realize that they were ratted out by the old dude.
I'm interested to see what goes on from there. I feel like Jamie will learn not to be quite as much of an a-hole in risky situations. And I feel like Brienne will learn not to be so naive (like when Jamie said they should kill the old dude and she said no because he's just an innocent old man).
Also, I really thought the episode was gonna end with them both jumping off the bridge into the water.

Not quite though, because you have some book history in your head.

FWIW, for the second time...I wasn't saying that you spoiled anything or gave hints or whatever. I was simply saying that you were bringing information from the books into this thread, and that info doesn't really belong here. Even trying to be helpful (which I know is all you were doing) can lead the thread down a path to bad things. So just leave any and all book info out of the thread. It's that easy (or it should be).
I love how I always made fun of JerseyTiger for being a spoiler nazi, and now I'm always in the discussions about that shite.

You're also bringing in book knowledge, which this thread doesn't want.
Another week, and I still don't get why people simply can't just not discuss book shite, no matter how relevant or irrelevant they think it is
That's what always happens. People come in here with BS remarks they think are cute and it just lessens the experience.

were the absolute worst about this shite last nite after it aired. Like schoolgirls, they run in this thread, lay down some innuendos, and then scurry back to the Book Reader's thread and giggle about it.

well i thought the bridge decision was kind of a microcosm of one of the themes of the show so far. and that's ned stark. dude acted honorably it got him killed. shady people have stayed alive (big time generalization but you know what i mean).
brienne decides to act with honor and it didn't work out for her. well, at least it looks that way.

RA that shite next time so the posts can be hidden or deleted, and warnings can be given. That's so fricking stupid if that really happened.

After the episodes I normally stay far away from this thread because I know shite like this is coming.
And my mom calls me because she has no idea what has happened and why it's happened

Agreed. And it's not just Ned...remember when that badass swordsman fought in place of Tyrion and killed that other dude and kicked him out the moon door (or whatever it's called)? The queen (the mom of that annoying little count dude) was like "You don't fight with honor," and badass swordsman dude points at the dead dude and goes "He did."
