Hey Night'sQueen! Hope to see you in the next game. The purchasing of hints to a clue for a point is something I tried as host a number of games ago. Julia decided to use it. I'm partially delighted someone else got the theme and partially disappointed I wasn't the only one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fragile Bird Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 There were a whole bunch of themes I thought of and rejected because I always found a character that didn't fit. I read the Viserys wiki page and there is a good description of Dany's dream in the entry. I concentrated on three pages, Arthur Dayne, Viserys and Ygritte, trying to find a common bond, and very unfortunately there is no mention of Ygritte appearing in Jon Snow's dreams. I did not remember him dreaming about her, just him thinking about her. Arthur Dayne, of course, is a huge part of Ned's story and his 'promise me' dream. If someone here also works on the Wiki, maybe Ygritte's page could be updated.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a free shadow Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I did think of the right theme, but only in passing, and only when I was all gone and did have no heart to investigate. If you believe me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Blizzardborn Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I never got close to the theme, but I think I made good cases for two other themes. And I had a run of themes I had to reject because at least one character (usually my own) did not fit. Did well on the guessing, but the quantity of hints I bought probably makes that moot.

Julia H. Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 All those songs... I like this dreamy mood the theme inspired. Please, be patient. It is very late and I haven't started counting the points yet (and I feel tired). It may take another day before I post the final results. In the meantime, you can have a few more hours to vote (if you haven't voted yet) or to change your vote (if you want to) or to sing songs and dream. 24 minutes ago, yomi said: I consider hosting the next, or is there already someone else wanting to do so?

Lady Blizzardborn Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Hey, hey, check out this music video in my head: I dreamed a dream (Ned on milk of the poppy or Jaime on the weirwood stump) in time gone by (Bran flashing through old weirnet files) When hope was high (all the Starks together at Winterfell) and life worth living (Tyrion drunk, surrounded by whores). I dreamed that love would never die (LF pushing Lysa out the Moondoor) I dreamed the gods would be forgiving (High Sparrow's men f*cking s#it up). Then I was young and unafraid (Robb/Bran) And dreams were made (Jon) and used (Sansa with Joffrey) and wasted (Arya with Jaqen) There was no ransom to be paid (Jaime before being captured/Dany with MMD). No song unsung (Rains of Castamere) No wine untasted (Joffrey at the Purple Wedding). But the tigers come at night (Cersei/Tywin/Sons of the Harpy) With their voices soft as thunder (Roose) As they tear your hope apart (Robb falling at the Red Wedding) As they turn your dream to shame (Joffrey ordering Ned's death/firing Barristan/the burning of Shireen) He slept a summer by my side (Lyanna and Rhaegar) He filled my days with endless wonder (Sansa and Joffrey, in happier times) He took my childhood in his stride (Dany and Drogo) But he was gone when autumn came (death/burning/leaving clips). And still I dreamed he'd come to me (Dany in the HotU with Drogo and baby Rhaego) That we would live the years together (Robb and Talisa) But there are dreams that cannot be (Ned and Cat back when they were alive). And there are storms we cannot weather (Blackwater Bay or Hardhome). I had a dream my life would be (Jon getting stabbed, Arya blind, Tyrion in jail) So different from this hell I'm living (Sansa with Ramsay, Cersei's walk of shame, Jaime's hand cut off). So different now from what it seemed (Dany walking into the flames) Now life has killed (Bran falling after being pushed/thrown) The dream (Brienne holding Renly's body) I dreamed. (Jon holding the dying Ygritte, then Winterfell burning). "Hodor." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot put into words how much I want this to happen My reluctant research for more themes won't be required for a while, which is a wonderful surprise!
