a free shadow Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 no context. He offered a joke. There is a whole subculture with their own uniforms t-shirts for blaming Pod :read: Edit: I did not understand your joke, I suppose :sleepy: Sorry.

Bronn Stone Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Everyone who is on this forum should know about blaming Pod. For the lack of this I blame Pod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howlin' Howland Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Everyone who is on this forum should know about blaming Pod. For the lack of this I blame Pod. I may owe you an apology. I'm inclined to blame my squire, but Pod is excellent in his duties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronn Stone Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 The Pod referred to in all blame Pod jokes is not the character Podrick Payne, but the board poster "Padraig". He's been part of the forum for about 15 years and has attended more Con BwB events than just about anyone not named GRRM. In 2007 he was named King of the BwB by acclamation after being nominated by George. He's also one of the kindest and mildest-mannered people I've ever met.He takes being blamed for just about everything with his customary good humor.This Westeros Forum history lesson brought to you by Bronn Stone on behalf of Forum Greybeards everywhere. Now get off my lawn and back to Fragile Bird's game.I blame Pod for having to do this. If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to email me at (the first five letters of my username) @blamepod.com. And yes, that REALLY IS one of my email addresses.

lil' ghost Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 What are you taking about? Fragile Bird runs this game and he's from Toronto. So I posted a South Park Video titled Blame Canada as a joke. This is why I hate mods, no context.*she Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fragile Bird Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 ROUND 2 Submissions A Black Cat Letters: NFLOWLT A long time ago, so long ago you sometimes think you dreamed it, you were a very spoiled kitten living in the lap of luxury. Then one day awful things happened, and you had to run for your life. For more than 15 years you've lived on the means streets of King's Landing, mainly around the castle complex. Sometimes things were good, because some folks liked you and looked out for you, but a lot of times things were bad, and you had to learn how to become a tough, mean street cat. What was the worst thing you ever did? Or the best? Or, how did you survive all these years? Deadline for Round 2 Submissions is Monday, October 27 at 10:00 pm Toronto time. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave it to your goat Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 First: 5. Wean them imaginatively: digestible lady sheep! The Meereenese sure seem to think this is the best approach!Second: 17. Winterfell's Tossed Invalid Doubtless Learns Swiftly "Winterfell's tossed invalid" Yes! Very creative way to reference Bran and link it to his warging abilitiesThird: 15. Weary trainers ignite; dauntless lessons succeed. Nice and straightforward. HM9. With thirteen irascible dwarves... Listening, Smaug? If this was a LOTR game, this would probably be the post of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeyed chicken Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Oh man, you guys. I just had a mental block about this one and my entry is weak. Even with one I think is strong, I barely get points, so I have no shot this time. These are amazing! Great theme this time FB and good set up. The black cat (Balerion) is going to be tough, but should lead to more super creative entries. Yay! First: 16 way tie (all entries other than mine) ???Can't do that??? OK First: 14 Write to:- International Dragonian Learning Systems (brilliant & funny. Well done!!!)Second: 10. Warging!! Training is daunting, link spiritually. (kudoos to the two entries that used "Warging". This one gets the nod for "linked spiritually" - well done!)Third: 4. Winged terrors inflame Dornish lords. Surprise! (wicked, wicked! :P ) Hms#5 - love "digestible sheep" - Pythonesque.#6 "lasso snout" - :lol:#8 "dainty lianas, starkly." - I am not sure you have the right theme, but I like it! :lmao:#9 "With thirteen irascible dwarves... Listening, Smaug?" - **snicker** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fragile Bird Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 Toronto huh. Since I'm unlikely to win and I hate losing I need someone to blame: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOR38552MJA That should work for the whole game. That's always good for a laugh! Trust me, we've been blamed for worse (I'd like to take a swing at a few US politicians who blame us for everything!) Oh man, you guys. I just had a mental block about this one and my entry is weak. Even with one I think is strong, I barely get points, so I have no shot this time. These are amazing! Great theme this time FB and good set up. The black cat (Balerion) is going to be tough, but should lead to more super creative entries. Yay! First: 16 way tie (all entries other than mine) ???Can't do that??? OK EVERY entry is excellent! That's why they have to be read very carefully! :cheers: But, honestly guys, I'm glad I don't have to vote. And wait until you see some of the entries for the next round already! The standards of writing are fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
