anyone else think it was weird that Locke is using his real name at the wall? especially for someone planning to be a nw deserter in the near future.

The guy who rules the north has his back, I don't think he is too worried about being beheaded for deserting.

This makes me laugh.

Karl entrance was pretty great I thought.

Rast still a top 5 show character, was stoked to see him back.... hope we get a lot more from him as the actor who plays him has really turned him in to something so much more than Rast ever was in the books.

Also liked the WW stuff, and that they are speeding up Bran's story. If they can manage to do something similar with Dany and make her story even just a little less boring and stupid Ill be pretty happy.

"Our House" knows too much, I was suspicious a week ago but now it seems blatant, first he says he hopes its the Mountain vs Oberyn then brings up the Tyrion not being a Lannister theory and now he "thinks" Jons father is Rhaegar, all he does is misspell names to make it look legit imo

No way based on the show can there be that much correct speculation, Rhaegar has barely been mentioned at all

Yeah, allways thought that too, but he claims to have seen all seasons like 8 times so i figured he got some of that **** from there, whatever.

If he has the time for that, why doesn't he just read the ****ing books.

Anyway I don't care anymore, they want to pretend the books don't exist, let them.

Off to the Lounge!

This is actually the title of an upcoming episode, so all it takes is seeing that in your dvr to start piecing things together. I suspect the best of the "non bookreaders" at making accurate predictions are the ones who pay attention to these types of information.

Being Sam told Jon that "Mormont is grooming you for Command," in Season 1 and Mormont asked Jon "Do you want to lead? (Then learn how to follow)," in Season 2, hard to fault someone for thinking Jon might be in play for LC someday. (I haven't looked at any of Our House's posts so don't know if he's super spoilery in other way.)

no, not your account!

btw, i'm pretty sure posting future episode titles is also considered spoiler, so using that to post theories is also considered spoiler.

Our House is like a complete freak. At face value he just screams bookreader on an almost daily basis, but as Chim said you could bet a lot he isn't and most likely be good always. He is a freak and a very weird dude though, but much like the other one endearing as well.

someone being that obsessed about a show and not spoiling himself with every single answer to his questions a few clicks away is just unreal to me.

You can't say that OH hoping that Jon becomes LC means he's spoiled, especially after this last episode. And if it was before that episode they telegraphed it fairly strongly with Sam's "They're grooming you for command" in season 1.

You don't need to be an expert on storytelling let alone be spoiled to expect Jon to become the next lord commander. It's a classic scenario of the hero underdog character rising to power through timing and circumstance.

it's not only that though, is it?
you guys really think that saying tyrion may not be tywin's son, oberyn vs. the mountains fight and r + l = j in the same post doesnt seem even a bit fishy? fwiw I don't really think mods should do something about it, but you clearly have to keep an eye out.

it's the everyone's a targ theory.

imo (and the opinions of many others), if tyrion is a targ, it's flat out poor writing. A lot of what makes tyrion great is that he is Tywin's son in so many ways.
