Yeah, this: post your ideas, but don't be a fucking asshole about it.

This. Unless the "theories" echo the spoilers from set photos that are out there.durdencommatyler wrote:I don't mind not tagging pure speculation and theory. It's just ideas. If any of it is supported by and/or based on book info or any real leaked information, then I'd say, definitely tag it.

Re: HBO: Game of Thrones (Song of Ice and Fire)
Exactly. The three of us are on the same page. Look, when in doubt, use the tag, and maybe try to provide context if/when you do that.Simple Torture wrote:Yeah, this: post your ideas, but don't be a fucking asshole about it.

Something like: "I read this somewhere (reddit, another board, etc) and it seems like it could be true" then tag it.
It gets dicey when you just post the tag without context or info. We don't know if you're talking about something from the episode or some big event from a previous episode or a theory or an actual legit spoiler.
Just don't be an asshole, I think is where we're all at.

Yup. Posted on HBO Go/Now around 9:01 pm East Coast time. You're in for a treat Stip. Part of the fun is the discussion each week between episodes.Simple Torture wrote:Yeah, 9 I think.stip wrote:I've never watched this show live before. Sunday nights?

You'd think that. But really there's so much internet activity that it goes by pretty quickly. These ding-dongs here can talk about this shit all day and night.stip wrote:It's actually going to be tough having to wait a week between installments
