It's easy to predict Robb will die, predicting that Rob will die in episode 9 at the hands of the Freys who conspired with the Lannisters is not throwing shite against the wall.


I agree he is a reader I was more talking about the other the posters who agreed or previously brought it up.

I can't remember. Did they do the bedding for Sansa and Tyrion in the book? I figured they couldn't do it in the show, with Sophie Turner being a minor and all.


I want to say the show pretty much nailed that scene.

Yeah - back on track. Let's see how many beneficial things we can come up with that Sam actually did.

I can think of:

- discovered the use of dragonglass (obsidian) in killing the Others.

- got Jon elected as commander.

- I seem to remember him reading stuff in books from long ago and maybe pointing them out to Jon or someone. But I can't for the life of me remember what it was about.

It really took an almost un-believable amount of compassion, patience or foresight for Jon to assist him to the point where his talents pay off.



I don't know. Jon knows that 99% of the Night's Watch are illiterate morons, and having a smart coward among you who can read and knows alot of history is probably a good idea.

The one thing I specifically remember is that he found a book the Maestar Aemon requested. It was the book about the backstory of Nissa Nissa and Azor Ahai I think to be given to Jon. Maybe.

-He also saved Mance Rayder's child. It remains to be seen how important that will end up being, or where exactly the baby and Gilly will wind up.

he's definitely a reader:



Could we somehow do a closet ban of him? He's clearly a reader, but I don't want to go in there and call him out on his bullshite. Just quietly ban him until the end of the season.

He reads about dragon glass and the history of the winter on the wall.

So far I have to agree, they barely show him. Perhaps he will be more important in the future. Anyone else get the idea Rob is heading into a hornets nest at the twins? I don't see that ending well for him. If more starks bite the dust during this war perhaps Rickon is one of the last starks standing?


This douchebag is just telling them what is happening. Who the frick is this guy?

You know, frick em. We've been trying to police our own, but if we so much make a comment that Tyrion is short, then they flip their shite on us. Kinda like the boy who cried "Wolf" on an incredible amount of bullshite, I'm just sick of doing it when its the real god damn thing.

What do we do about it RA his posts?


Don't even. The sudden disappearance of his posts will almost assuredly alert people that he was right.

I vote after the Red Wedding, we pummel the non-reader thread and then give that guy a big ban.

It looks like one of his posts detailing the freys killing Robb was deleted.

I hope everyone RA's his post. He should be banned for that.

Yeah, I think that should be 6 month ban territory. Pretty much the one "no-no" in this board is spoiling that.

Does anybody else not like how they are animating the white walkers?

The original one was more creepy to me...and a whole lot cheaper which would allow more money for other effects...
