Ser Not Appearing Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I'd love to have a prophecy for Tyrion that says something like:A wife you'll take, a wife you'll lose. You'll search for your wife but not the prude.... or ...You'll search for your wife but not the beauty you've married.Oh, and my entry so far sucks... again.

Lady Blizzardborn Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 No problem. I'll extend to 11am London Time tomorrow (Friday 3rd) so everyone has tonight to complete. Thank you. I was going to ask for an extension as well. This cold makes thinking difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q the Cat Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Thanks, I need it. Now I remember why I always drop out of this game: I'm terrible at it. Zero votes on the first round! I know, you could have a round where you try to guess which clue is mine the worst. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolorous Gabe Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 To be fair it only takes a couple of strong winning rounds to get you up in contention. I had one entry that got zero votes and one entry that got just two 3rd place votes in the last game. My final entry only got 3 votes, although they were two 2nd and a 1st so they were handy in seeing me to the top, but that means for nearly half of the rounds I got just 15 points (6 of those for simply sending in an entry and voting). Don't lose hope! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woofless Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Personally I Iike to get my answers in asap, so that I can forget about it, as I never know how busy I'm going to be in the days remaining. If something else comes to me I can change it, but the pressure is off. Yes, I know, you can tell I get them in quickly as they make no sense - except to me, of course.

To be the standout entry in such a strong field is an impressive achievement. An incredible haul of 31 points (with six 1st place votes) closes a giant deficit to draw level at the top with the second best scorer of the round Lady Blizzardborn and push Howlin' Howland into 3rd. Meanwhile, Captain Lemon continues his strong start to his Acrophobia career and Emmit and Ser Not Appearing hang tenaciously to their positions in the chasing pack under pressure from lil' ghost, twice-champion Turinqui-Calima and Castellan. Round 3 entries on the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolorous Gabe Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 ROUND 4 CERSEI LANNISTER (hoping for some belters here!) Letters - DLEROHC The royal party travelling north to Winterfell stops for King Robert to go hunting in a nearby forest. Cersei is twiddling her thumbs impatiently. You come around the corner. She'll ignore you at first as you try to make some kind of conversation. What do you say that grabs her attention (and possibly gets you sentenced to death)? Deadline for Round 4 submissions is 11pm London Time on Monday 6th October (6pm New York Time). You'll probably get an extra hour as it might be midnight before I can start the count.
