For those of us that are say, at an Air Force Base right now and can't open that link, could you summarize? I'd hate to think I'm lacking direction.

Thank you.

I must say, that was underwhelming. I was hoping to learn what HPO stands for.

I love how he directs the fans here. I have to wonder though if he's snuck a peak at our site on the sly. Wouldn't suprise me (waves to the invisible GRRM lurker). Anyhow, I'm just glad that HBO has their hands in it as opposed to...oh, let's say Disney like what happened to the Sword of Truth series. I don't think it'll ever recover. Too PG. At least with HBO we don't have to worry about Cersei and Jaime "eluding" to something with wannabe smokey looks and bad acting.

Horribly Priced Offerings?

:leaving:

Ok, I can see why a pay-to-view network has to price their DVDs so high, but I can't justify paying $75 for a 13 episode season. But I can't bitch too much anymore since I just picked up both seasons of Rome for $44 in last week's Black Friday sales. :thumbsup:

And I'm sure GRRM is lurking here a bit. He'll never admit to it, but I'm sure as producer he's looking over the cast lists just like D&D are.

This is as close to an admission that he is checking some of the casting suggestions as I could find.

From previous remarks from GRRM, what's likeliest is that Parris (who has commented on one or two of the threads) has shared some of the suggestions with him rather than his visiting the board directly. :)

I have a confession to make. I am George R. R. Martin.

I have, unbeknownst to everyone, already completed [i]A Dance with Dragons[/i]. If you would like to read an advance copy, please send $100 to [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu_moia-oVI"]the linked bank account[/url]. Please play no attention to the Nigerian banking details.

Guilty by association.

I have to say, in relation to directing people, it was really low for that guy who came to our site solely so he could direct people to another site. I really think some mod should delete the post and ban the account (but that's just me). Making your site known is one thing - piggybacking on another site's name is another...

Oh and Fate, I tried forwarding the money but it told me that the dumbshit has forgotten to activate the account so they cannot transfer funds at this time. I guess you're giving them out for free!
