Is Robb Stark dead yet?

Good news is he's dead. Bad news is that now we have to kill 56 people!!!

Beddie bye time. Maybe by the time I'm up tomorrow a couple dozen characters will have perished. It's going to take a while, but it'll be fun.

I am still a man of the North and A supporter of House Stark, but in the Game of Elimination change in strategy is needed and i think right up until the end many thought i was plotting on a Stark victory in fact some even posted about me not attacking him HAR HAR HAR. But for when i truly started playing this game when there was about 8 or so left, only Stannis deserved victory even over Robb. Also all i wanted was for Renly to die thats all, then everyone forced my hand HAR HAR HAR.

OnionAhaiReborn, how fitting

Edit: okay King Stannis Baratheon would've worked too, but he hadn't been at this for as long

I was at work, didn't have time to play the game ..
Glad he won, though

Excited for the next one!

[KhaleesiDany]

I come back to check the score and Stannis won!?

Usurper dogs!

Defeat is bitter . . .  I didn't have a single turn when I didn't hurt him.

Time for haircut.

You forgot Saalhador Saan and Iliryo

Nah, I intentionally excluded most people who only had 1 or 2 scenes, unless they are fan favorites like Conan Stevens.

[Petyr Baelish the First]

MAn, Saalhador was brilliant. I'm sure he's a fan favourite. Maybe we can nominate him.

Well, I certainly haven't been that selective so far, so why not?  And 60 is a round number anyway.

[Petyr Baelish the First]

Sorry for that, but that actor was brilliant. Not exactly Salla but his scene with Davos was exceptional. Thank for that.

[ICE CROW]

Wow yea definitely with this many people whoever starts the game has to make sure to state in the Opening Post that all characters have a cap of 20 points and everyone must both Hurt and Heal someone until the final 5 where the cap is 25 and like normal you don't have to heal if your favourite is maxed out. Otherwise this thing will never end and be a mess, making sure everyone has to hurt guaranteed  till the final 5 will make go quicker.

This is definitely the largest list i have seen since i have been here!.

[Fragile Bird]

Maybe this is a silly idea, but what about splitting the list in half and doing 19A and 19B.  Get the list of 30 down to 10, which will take, from experience, maybe 2 days then switch to B, do the same, and have 19C, or 19AB and do a 20 game normal rules.  Throw in 1 new name for fun if you want 21, or stop at 11 in one list.

I just think a list of 60 will be unwieldy.  Or, same idea, but stop at 15, and do a list of 30 which IC says was the way it used to be.

That might be fun. Like a mini bracket tourney, with 2 rounds.

[Silver Spearwife]

I love it, Drac! The mathematician in me wants to say we cut it down to 15 in each, since that's a nice round percentage of 60.

I usually do it, but it really doesn't matter. You just have to remember to alter the rules for each new game, and this one's definitely gonna need some alterations. Anybody want to start it?

I can start it, and having 15 advance to the final round is fine with me, if it works for everyone else.

The new thread is up and running.  I'd like people to read over the rules and let us know (in that thread, preferably) whether they should be tweaked, before we begin.  Or we can just start.  Thoughts?
