Some Redditor speculated that Jon's name is actually Jaehaerys Targaryen after watching the flashback scene a bunch of times. It seems baseless, but I'm sure Bran will tell him sometime in S7.

how can his name be anything Targaryen when his parents weren't married

They couldn't even have secretly gotten married because rhaegar was already married

He could have just married her as his second wife.

I mean GRRM IS involved in the show I doubt he would make jons parents different people on the books and the show...

In the books there's a character named Coldhands that a lot of fans think is Benjen Stark, but GRRM told his editor that it's not. Yet in the show Coldhands is Benjen.

George hasn't been involved in the series the past two seasons and there's been a lot of significant changes since then. I could easily see them changing this.

combining relatively minor characters for the tv show isn't comparable to changing the protagonists parents (one of the biggest mysteries of the series)

Like jorah and Jon connington being basically combined into one. It's just so they don't have to hire as many actors and so the viewers don't get confused by so many characters

It's hard to rationalize what they would and wouldn't be willing to change from the books at this point. One would think they wouldn't omit important POV characters like Arianne and Victarion in an adaptation and yet they did.

A couple weeks ago a fan asked him who Jon Snow's parents are and he said they were Justin Beiber and Kim Kardashian. I don't think he's addressed anything that's happened this season yet but eventually someone's going to bring it up at some kind of Q&A. I guess we'll just have to wait until then to see what his answer is.

I completely agree

Second Class and Decimator Omega

what's the next step of his master plan?

"I thought America were the people that were so filled with hate"

Fuck you, you stupid fucking cunt. Can't stand liberals.

Just makes me wanna vote for Trump when I hear shit like this.

So I was just memeing in the other thread but apparently Sansa being jealous and wanting power to herself is really the direction they're going with her character.

I just hope this serves as the object lesson for us in the states about extreme political rhetoric.

What's the lesson: it doesn't matter what you want, you're not going to get it anyway?

The Brexit movement came from extreme political rhetoric. Now what happens if Article 50 gets enacted will mean dire consequences for the UK. It's conceivable that by this time next year the UK is just Britain.

Ah. I figured it was just a knock at Trump.

thanks for the laugh

I think only like 2 a year will crawl into your mouth while sleeping, so you should be fine statistically speaking.

Everyone who has been on the forums for the last while will know that Comms had been taunting/winding up Kinder and Noelle, That's not exactly a secret. Kinder kept on feeding him over and over and over again and that's what let all this stupidity happen.

The offsite forum was nuked, in part by Comms. thejester or something like that, was him pretending to be Kinder. Some people seem to think I knew about this as it happened/before hand, Comms had been hinting towards some sort of daft plan to nuke the forums and I asked him not to. Then all hell broke loose overnight. The forums went into flame mode and then Proboards nuked it, this stuff you all know.

The bit I want to clarify is what went on afterwards, Comms had done a running commentary on his 'mischief' to me via PM, I couldn't believe he'd actually pulled it off and it had bloody worked. The flood was out for Kinder and Noelle's blood over it and it was pretty... 'Well shit'. As a rule of thumb, I don't just blab about PMs to any old bugger I meet and I was chewing over what to do when in a group chat on Facebook - Kinder was getting mobbed by some other users. I stepped in and told them what had gone on, with the emphatic request that they keep their bloody mouths shut afterwards.

Then the second site went up, and things seemed to be alright for a bit. Someone, I don't know who - Reported the forum out of spite and got it nuked again. One thing that someone on here brought up was me being a Mod on there, yes Kiyo made me a moderator for the politics/religion forum but the whole board was nuked about an hour later anyway. That's not really pertinent to this whole thing, but I wanted to clear it up anyway. I don't want to be a moderator on this site, mostly because I'm fucking sick of all the childish squabbling over this crap.

Then later in the evening Kinder half posted a stupid thread in here with excerpts from the PM that I had shared, specifically to stop him from getting chewed out by everyone else. So thanks kinder, you half arsed it and buggered it up and now I've had to write the bloody great wall of china to finish this shit once and for all.

tl;dr/Salient points go here.
1. I tried to resolve some of the problem between users that I consider to be good friends, on all sides of this clusterfuck. This involved divulging a PM with Comms Officer, something I was particularly unhappy about doing but I was trying to sort things out for Kinder.
2. My attempt to fix that shit was completely unrelated to being a moderator on the second site, all of this was done on Skpe, Facebook or in PMs on various sites.
3. I tried to keep this neutral and to fix it quickly and tidily as best as I could, simply because watching a large group of friends or aquaintances descend into screaming matches over something they didn't have the explanation to and I did. But the actions of a certain individual, to put it all bluntly - completely fucked it all up again and let to this thread.
4. I am sick to death of this crap and the reason I'm doing this stupidly long thread is to get it all done and buried afterwards. I don't want to be a moderator on here and I only accepted the role on the other site because it was for a sub-forum.

Right, bleugh.

If you've got any questions you want answering, then ask. I'll give you the straightforward answers and then I want to get rid of this thread. Hopefully this will answer all the confusion and bullshit flying around, if I don't know then I'll just say but I have the play by play of the whole damn thing courtesy of Comms, on top of what I saw firsthand.

Now:



I refuse to be bottom-paged
