Here:Unregistered -- WildlingNewly registered -- Commoner25 posts -- Freerider...Thanks for posting all that!What got me here was the idea of RPing... but they call it a MUSH here... so I'm holding back until I find out what the frak that's supposed to stand for. :dunno:Never saw such a fast-moving forum, either.Looks like I have a lot to learn, like how to upload an avatar here.

Phaing Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Exorcist: I'm also into RPG - but I haven't really thought about doing it here.Thanks for the welcome. Ironically, if I ever found myself in Westeros, Tyrion is the guy I'd want to talk to first.The RPG here, the MUSH (even the folks I talked to over there didn't seem sure what that stood for) is highly structured. It might even be too complex for a newcomer to consider fun, but the faithful sure seem to enjoy it. I hear that there were 30 players gathered for a recent tourney... so it definitely works well for those taking part.I'm going to hold off until I have read the books, just to absorb the Culture & all the rest of it.BTW- it takes place in the year 164, over a century prior to where the story-line is currently.

I'd go for Tyrion too.The RPG here, the MUSH (even the folks I talked to over there didn't seem sure what that stood for) is highly structured.

And perhaps we should move our conversation to PM. ;o) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lannistergold Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Hi there. I like big books and political intrigue, so I've been getting a lot out of ASOIAF. Tyrion Lannister is probably one of my top 5 fictional characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cato.the.Elder Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Hello to everybody. After some time lurking, it's time to introduce myself and start participating in the forum.I've been very reluctant to read ASoIaF for years, even if many of my friends and family were fans. But a year ago started to see the tv series (yes, almost a year after season one was released), and decided to give the first book a chance. That was the point of no return. I read all the novels in a few months, and since then I am in the long waiting for "The Winds of Winter" :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Seaworth Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 (edited) I didn't even realise there was an introduction thread until just now (spending most of my time in the general novels section, hah)So hi everyone! I feel like it's a bit redundant to introduce myself by saying "I LIKE BOOKS!" but there we go, I've said it! Is "I like ASOIAF!" too obvious, as well? :lol: Favourite characters have to be Brienne, Jaime and Tyrion. And Davos because Davos is awesome and underrated.I'm enjoying all the theories on these forums, it seems like I've somehow missed a massive chunk of stuff on my first readthrough (I didn't even pick up on Frey Pies!)I also love dogs (Dakonic, if you're still around from the last page of the thread, your job sounds amazing).And I'm slightly addicted to tablet games, I bought my partner a tablet for his birthday and now I can't stop myself borrowing it constantly just to play silly games on it. :laugh: Edited February 28, 2013 by Lady Seaworth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inevittable Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Hello all,I've been lurking for some time, and now seems to be a good time to emerge into the light. I'm a PhD student based in northern England and my research is on fans of books and adaptations, using Game of Thrones as a case study.I'm a fan of ASOIAF, and first read Game of Thrones just before the announcement of the HBO adaptation, which felt like very good timing.Please do keep your eye out for threads I will be posting as part of this exciting (if I do say so myself) research project, where there will be space for you to ask questions about the project itself as well as space for you to participate in the research. I look forward to getting to know this place. It's tough work, but someone has to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bringer of Oranges Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Hello, I'm new here! Well, at least as an active member, I have been scrolling through the topic for many months as an anonymous visitor, bursting with excitement every time I found something I wanted to comment on, then realizing I couldn't, and forgot about it. I have been introduced to the books and the series by some very persistent friends, and after months of badgering I gave up, and I have been reading the books over and over. I live in the UK and I'm a university student. I hope I can contribute something to this forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
