Game of Thrones S05E08
Well, as for why he turns and what he turns into, I dunno. Personally, I think it will have something to do with his Stark blood. The Wall was originally built by Bran the Builder, aka Brandon Stark. It's very possible the WWs need Stark blood to bring it down. I also think it is possible that Bran, Jons brother, somehow plays a role in his survival. There is a character in the books, Coldhands, who seems to be a wight/or white walker, and a former member of the nights watch. He has his memories and is very old and rides a big ass elk. Nothing is really known about him, but he's the primary reason that people believe JS will be coming back. No one knows how Coldhands was resurrected, though. I mean, all the Starks to this point have shown some form of power because of their blood. Bran has gone straight fantasy world, and even the girls had abnormally strong connections with their wolves (in the books Arya still enters the mind of her wolf through dreams, and her wolf is leading a giant wolf army and fucking shit up). Regardless of what happens, I think there is just too much about Jon Snow that screams "he's not really dead." If he is really dead, then you might as well just chalk this entire series up as a 'W' for the white walkers since the only 2 guys who seemed like they were going to do anything about it got off'd.

There is just a part in the books where a red priest mentions burying "the hound." It kind of implies that Sandor tossed aside the hound and reformed his life. Probably not something that will be proven one way or the other though. So, I didn't mention this because I watch low quality first releases, but I felt like Jon Snows eyes changed toward the end of the episode, they became lighter. I saw it being discussed online today and figured I'd mention it. Could be a trick of the light, but his eyes definitely seem to take on a lighter hue.

Are you a book reader? There's a pretty solid fan theory that The Hound managed to survive.

Nice summary/opinions here. Cersei still looked fucking hot with her hair cut and them titties tho.. That religion woman that came to her everyday is dead, dead dead. I didn't understand who that tall knight that carried her away was though? I think Theon & Sansa are alive and unarmed, Sansa looked pretty confident jumping without any hestitation, so they know what they were doing. Also what the hell happened to Bran & Rickon? Not a peep from them this season, cliffhanger still remains from season 4. Anyone who read the 5th book, are they involved at all? The huge knight is what remains of Ser Gregor Clegane... The Mountain. Qyburn "changed" him. I knew Bran was out of season 5 before it began. I'm pretty positive he will become the new worg master. Rickon and Osha were last seen on their way to Umber castle, bannermen of the Stark's. I would say he's there in hiding. wait a damn second.. Didn't that prince kill him in that justice fight for Tyrion?! He was badly wounded, but not dead. I also believe it's the Mountain. He looked like a gorilla. Heh, well...badly wounded by the Viper is death. Ser Gregor had zero chance of survival, and whatever Qyburn cooked up is much closer to Frankenstein's monster than Gregor being "healed." I don't remember how well it's portrayed in the show, but in the books I feel it's hinted pretty heavily that Qyburn has a love for harvesting live organs and body parts.

It's not real spoilerish, just gives their location and honestly this part of the show is so different I can't imagine it matters much :\

I wouldn't worry too much. I can't speak for the show because they change so much, but I'm not convinced he's "dead" in the books. You know there is a character left out of the show that jon would fit perfectly and would probably only require his voice.

Just because all of those things ended on cliffhangers I don't think we can make any conclusions. GoT likes killing people, but they like REALLY killing people. They put everything on a cliffhanger because they want us to question which one is going to be "real" and which ones are going to be fine. Stannis - yeah, he's probably dead fo sho. Mrycella - I'm betting the prince has a necklace like everyone else seems to. Everything in that country is about snakes and vipers, and snake handlers always carry anti-venom. The kid isn't dumb, I hope. Jon - "dead," but I'm betting he comes back. They didn't burn the body, or show it...everyone just walked away. What has he been preaching? Burn the dead. If not that, the red witch does have power. We've seen the god of light bring people back from the dead before...why not do it now? Daenarys - "captured" Her dragon is on top of that mountain. If anyone is captured, it's that khalasar. She's probably riding by to Meeren with a new army come next season. Sansa - Man, I dunno...that was high up there. She at least has to snap a leg or something. It's really hard to guess at what will happen when people jump from high up...only 2 options really. Assuming they live without much damage they'll probably find Brienne...I mean if they get caught we don't get Theon anymore :\

LBJ is carrying that entire team on his shoulders. He is having one of the greatest NBA Finals of any individual player all time. I have to say yes and no. He is having one of the greatest finals ever for sure, and he's continuing to cement his legacy as a GOAT...but I don't think it's fair to say he's carrying the team on his shoulders at the moment. He's being LeBron James. He's being what I, and we, should expect him to be - the greatest player currently playing the game. But the reason the Cavs are up 2-1 is because their team defense, and most notably Dellavedova's defense on Curry, has become insane. The Cavs have unexpectedly stepped their game up to match and compliment LeBron. The Warriors are deep, the Cavs are shallow as hell and as good as LeBron is the only way he wins this series, only way he carries it, is if his surrounding cast plays like they are never playing again. And they are right now. LBJ doesn't need his left and right hands, he just needs his legs and stubs. So, yes LeBron is amazing and having the best finals probably ever, but he's winning because his team has come out of no where. I'm really excited to see what sort of changes Kerr makes. It's real possible that this series comes down to coaching, and so far Blatt has done a pretty amazing job with the amount of adjustments he's had to make. That guy deserves a ton of credit.

Really good game last night. Cavs defense has stepped up so big that it's remarkable. I don't know if they can keep up that intensity for an entire series, especially with how physical it is and how shallow they are right now, but just making it a series at this point is an amazing accomplishment for a team that essentially lost the left and right hand. I'm a Red Wings fan, so a Blackhawk/Lightning final basically has me puking in my mouth. I'm not watching that series, see ya next year. Hope they choke on it.

You might enjoy this game then. It doesn't require any where near the skill of DOTA, but still leave you with enough things to add a little depth to the game while making it revolve around objectives and map control. It's basically team fighting from the first minute of the game.

A very casual moba with depth at the high end. No item builds, no last hitting or 20 min farm fest...just team fighting and objective based maps.

I didn't put in much of a ranked grind this season, but I finished in silver 2. I started playing LoL toward the end of season 2, and in season 3 I grinded my way from bronze 5 (probably wasn't a good idea to hit 30 and go right to ranked, but w/e) to silver 1 and then riot sent me back to bronze 3 at the start of season 4 (wtf!?) so I got really discouraged and didn't have much motivation. Hoping I can finish next season high gold/low plat. Like I said, I'm not pro...but I'm better than a silver ranking. And yeah, everyone says that, but I do fine vs high gold/low plat players. really high plat and diamond players kinda change the game though :/ Yeah I know what you mean. Elo hell is definitely a thing. I'm Silver II as well and it's basically a lottery. Do you get ok teammates or not? Unless you're so much more better and able to carry and you're teammates aren't feeding like crazy, then you can climb out of it, but the rest of us that are try-harding are stuck in elo hell Eh, teams are a pretty solid mix of good and bad. I seem to avoid disconnects and afkers, but I do get quite a few feeders and people who don't really belong in ranked (I consider bronze 5-gold 5 to be pretty much the same). People just play too many random champions. I firmly believe in having a small, select rotation of champions and grinding with them. People will have 2 games played on a fiddlesticks and be like, "FIDDLE SUPPORT. I'M PRO! IS GUD!" No, just play your normal damn champions. Most "counters" can be overcome by skill and intelligence...Communication is also lacking in a lot of games. The new jungle and dragon have turned people stupid Shooting to be on tonight streaming around update! Probably get hit with the CN busy signal, so looking to launch my attacks at about 1:15. Maybe grab a new target as well. After that will be some late night gaming! Is anyone playing Hearthstone or Heroes of the Storm?
