Why the fuck are you people still putting information from the book in here? God damn read the box in the top of the thread.

I am simply saying that more time doesn't make for a better book and if you really sit down to write a book you don't need more then a year.


As someone who is beggining to write something of equally epic proportions, I respectfully disagree, theres a lot of background work that you need to do before you put things into the paper, if you neglect it, you will be where he was, when you have many lose ends you need to string toghether and altho not impossible, sometimes inspirations comes in weird ways, and I agree, sometimes people take let themselves be taken away by a lack of inspiration and stop writing for months, but I believe for my product to achieve the quality I desire a few years of thinking plots characters, world timelines, and etc... will be necessary

So I can just put the end world concept into paper and also add the creativity of the moment.

Then theres the edits where more content is added and more plots tweaked.

Sometimes I wish as authors, you could launch a 2.0 version of your story, because I can guarantee you, so many authors out there are writing their third books thinking (damn I wish I did XX and Y in the first).

There are multiple ways of writing books. You way is one of those. There are plenty of successful writers that do things on the fly without years/months of preparation.

Syrio was quite the badass, going out that way.


I am still wondering though, in the previous episode with the attempted murder of the Khaleesi, Jorah was given a notice that he had received his pardon from the king and could return home. I assumed that meant Jorah would be the one to kill the Khaleesi, but that wasn't the case in that episode and it wasn't explained further in this one. This leads me to believe that he was receiving the pardon in advance for letting the trader murder the Khaleesi? If this is so, then why would he let her die if he already received the pardon. If anyone has answers to this seeming hole the plot please explain, and if it is too much of a spoiler send it to me in an PM. Thanks.


I believe it was for providing the intel necessary for the assassination to occur. He had been spying on them the entire time for the spider.

In the end though he was too loyal to her to go through with it. That's my take on it at least.


Yeah, that's how I understood it aswell. Varys clearly states in a previous episode that Jorah has been providing the information for him.

And people should really stop discussing the book in here, that's really really annoying. Even if it is an unsignificant 'spoiler'.

Just watched the newest episode and it was so epic. Syrio and Drogo kicking some ass. Hopefully in the next episode it's Tyrions time to kick some ass aswell.

super weak episode :\ Getting way too close to shark-jumping territory. The series suddenly felt really chintzy to me. The episode has some good scenes, but as soon as there's action required, it plunges into Xena Warrior princess territory, with horrible acting and low-budget fight chorography. We even had a Dr. Evil laughing in his lair type scene... awesome :\

Have to disagree completely.

same, I thought this was an awesome episode.
However, I can see why someone might not like it. My brother described it as a "bridging episode" where they tied up a few loose ends from last episode and then set up some big things for the new episode. Still think it was great though.

Guys can we really stop discussing anything about the books. Even in spoiler tags, this just isn't the place. If you want to talk about the books talk about them in the book thread. It's super annoying reading this read and every now and then there's a person giving subtle hints about possible spoilers. If there's a spoiler tag it should still be about the TV series.

I have to admit, I was kind of expecting more out of this episode.

Don't get me wrong, I loved it, I was just hoping they'd move the story a little faster. Also it's really weird to get behind Robb now because we haven't seen him in forever. Jon Snow's part was amazing, but this is the first episode in three or four where the ending scene wasn't some epic and dramatic climax, but rather just the last scene before the credits.

I don't know I just really, really hate Sansa,

Yeah, I don't much care for sansa either, but it's really not her fault. She is like a trained ape, she has to look pretty and marry someone important. And that's it, not that much more to the character.
And I still love the actor for Tywin, just perfect. Only once in a while you get a HINT of a smile, and only then when he sends Tyrion (who I also love, both the actor and the character) off with Shagga.

Plus the Barristan Scene was awesome. Even now I could cut through the five of you like carving a cake. nuff said.

I thought this was the best episode so far. Really at this point there is no reason to have spoiler tags in this thread any more unless they do another HBOGO preview. If you are posting something spoilered it is probably about the book, and shouldn't be posted in this thread to begin with. On the flip side, any one who hasn't read the books should probably avoid all spoiler tags because obviously every day someone ignores that rule and what else could someone be posting as a spoiler if they weren't referring to the books?

That's the episode I thought this week's would be.

This week was 'just' a build up for next week, it was an odd change in the pacing, for 3 or 4 episodes now the action has been getting bigger and bigger, episode 8 felt really slow in comparision. episode 9 looks amzing though.

Thx for pointing that out. I really like how it shows what the king's guard has become just when they sent away its last honorable member.

Btw. I'm not really sure what Ned(?) says at the beginning of Ep9 preview. Could someone tell me please?
