    If my dad won, I'll be pissed. Because he had to ask "who is that again?" on half the names I was saying to him and he was just blindly guessing .

    Example from my dad's answers below: How can the wall still be up but the Night's Watch not be in operation? Doesn't seem like a consistent answer to me. Did we defeat the Whitewalkers behind the wall?

    At the end of the final episode, will The Wall be standing? (The Wall must be fully intact to count as standing.) - Yes

    At the end of the final episode, will The Night's Watch still be operating? - No

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Where was Meera heading? Hopefully not in the same direction as Tormund.

    Her and Hot Pie will just create a B&B and be the only ones living after the famine.

    Reunited!

    Daenerys and Jorah

    Correct - Ezee, Spinal, Duke, Bac0n, Duke's Dad
    Incorrect - Ivan

    Tyrion and Jaime

    Correct - Everyone

    Tyrion and Bronn


    Correct - Ezee, Duke
    Incorrect - Spinal, Bac0n, Ivan, Duke's Dad

    Points so far: (scoreboard is unofficial until the show is over)
    Duke - 12
    Ezee - 11
    Duke's Dad - 10
    Ivan, Bac0n - 8
    Spinal - 5

    A few of you have guessed that Petyr Baelish will be killed by either Arya or Sansa. It's starting to feel like you're getting warmer, although currently Littlefinger has the upper hand.

    Baelish looks to be dead before the White Walkers get anywhere closer to Winterfell sadly.

    I can only hope that Sansa excommunicates him to the wall or something.

    Rereading the predictions and can only think of how sad it'll be if Arya is killed. Between her and Sansa, I don't think I'd really be affected by anyone else.

    Won't be able to watch until tomorrow night, so score updates will come a little later this week.

    Neither Thoros of Myr nor Benjen Stark were included in the game, so nothing new was triggered this week.

    Regarding the dragon, just a reminder that 'undead' counts as 'alive' for the purposes of this game.

    In the Reunited section, Brienne has been dispatched to King's Landing, making a connection with Jaime seem very likely. It looks like Sandor may be heading that way as well, making a showdown with his zombie brother highly probable.

    Woohoo!

    SECTION II: DEADPOOL (5 pts each)

    In this section, you may choose up to 5 characters you think will die and predict their killer. However, 2 pts will be subtracted for every wrong guess, so choose wisely. You may enter 0 to 5 answers in this section.

    Dead - Petyr Baelish

    Correct - Everyone

    Although Tormund really looked like he was in deep trouble, the scene was ambiguous enough that I am assuming there's still hope for him at this point.

    DEADPOOL -

    Ezee - Petyr Baelish will be killed by the Night King - INCORRECT
    Duke - Petyr Baelish will be killed by Arya - CORRECT
    Bac0n, Duke's Dad - Petyr Baelish will be killed by Sansa - INCORRECT (but very close!)

    At the end of the final episode, will The Wall be standing? (The Wall must be fully intact to count as standing.) - NO

    Correct - Ezee, Spinal, Duke, Bac0n, Ivan
    Incorrect - Duke's Dad

    (NOTE: If, by some chance, the Wall is rebuilt, repaired and standing by the end of the final episode, then this answer will reverse.)

    REUNITED

    Sandor and Gregor Clegane -

    Correct: Spinal, Bac0n, Duke's Dad
    Incorrect: Ezee, Duke, Ivan

    Tyrion Lannister and Cersei Lannister -

    Correct: Everyone

    Brienne of Tarth and Jaime Lannister -

    Correct: Duke, Bac0n, Ivan, Duke's Dad
    Incorrect: Ezee, Spinal

    Tyrion Lannister and Podrick Payne -

    Incorrect: Everyone

    Regarding the deadpool - obviously, Arya was the one who killed Baelish, but a strong case could be made that Sansa was just as responsible for killing him, as she is the one who ordered it....

    I hear that. But in order to avoid ambiguity and endless debate, the person who actually does the physical act will be given credit for the kill in this case. For example, you could clearly argue that Joffrey killed Ned Stark. However, in this game, you would only get credit if you had said Ilyn Payne. I will try as best I can to be fair in ruling on situations that are not clean-cut.

    See? Proof that Crooked Spinal and Lyin' Duke are working together to rig this contest! Why, if Spinal was any more crooked, we'd have to start calling him Scoliosis!

    Might as well subtract 6 points from me. No way any of those will end up turning out correct.

    In the end, who will rule Westeros? Joint rule between Jon and Daenerys. (Jon rules the North. Daenerys rules the rest.)
    Obviously I can't change my answer, but I no longer believe this. I don't think Daenerys is surviving.

    [
    ]

    This is based on a re-read of the books though. And I can't remember if this has actually been set up as well in the show.

    It's got to be at the point where we wonder if those books will ever exist? Two years later...

    Just for fun, who do you think will be the first main character to die this season?

    I'm thinking those up north don't have much time left. Nice knowing you Tormund and Beric Dondarrion. But at least you got some ravens off to Winterfell.
