Also these are in the rules:
Titles are like WWE championships - points are awarded for each title gained and re-gained (e.g. losing and winning titles repeatedly makes you an 8x WWE Intercontinental Champion. Holding and defending the title for 8 years still just counts as 1x)

I might be wrong, but wouldn't it be a reduced title from king in the north to warden of the north? -imonaship12

I think if we get really technical about it, King in the North and Warden of the North are mutually exclusive - you can only be Warden for a reigning monarch, which implies you're not King in the North. Per the WWE criteria, any title change counts even if it sounds like a demotion (one could argue it's a smaller fish in a bigger pond scenario). -nyan

Insults Delivered / Funny Lines

26:42 (+3) Tormund Giantsbane:

"The big woman still here?" (Funny Line)

37:26 (+3) Tormund Giantsbane:

Tyrion: "Would you like a drink?"
Tormund: "Brought my own." [holds up horn of weird milk] (Funny Line)

37:35 (+3) Tormund Giantsbane:

The telephone game of Westerosi epithets makes its way to Tormund.
to Jaime: "They call you Kingkiller." (Funny Line)

38:27 (+3) Tormund Giantsbane:

Tormund tells the story of his name, Giantsbane.

"They call me Giantsbane. Want to know why?
I killed a giant when I was 10. Then I climbed right into bed with his wife.
When she woke up, you know what she did? Suckled me at her teat for three months.
Thought I was her baby. That's how I got so strong. Giant's milk." (Funny Line)

42:40 (+3) Gendry:

Gendry with the deflection as he gets grilled by Arya.
Gendry: "Then she (Melisandre) tied me up, stripped me down, put leeches all over me."
Arya: "Was that your first time?"
Gendry: "No, yeah, I've never had leeches put all over my cock." (Funny Line)

46:04 (+3) Tormund Giantsbane:

to Brienne: "I'm no King, but if I were, I'd knight you ten times over." (Funny Line)

Glasses of Wine Consumed

38:27 (+5) Tormund Giantsbane:

Tormund shotguns his entire horn of "giants' milk" as it pours down all over his beard to the dismay of Davos and others. (Glass of Wine Consumed)

Acts of Intercourse

44:21 (+5) Gendry:

Gendry and Arya spend possibly their last night rolling among the burlap sacks. "We're probably going to die soon. I want to know what it's like before that happens." (Act of Intercourse)

I think this should be phrased differently. This wasn't a quid pro quo transaction. This was Arya reaching out affirmatively, demonstrating sexual agency, and choosing Gendry to have this experience with because she trusts him. She would have done the same thing even without the weapon. -power.suit

Oh definitely, not at all - sorry if this implied that, it was attempting to put some kind of color onto the event descriptions. Lemme change it to match Arya's for now and see I'll revisit if I think up anything better while writing the blog post. -nyan

Maybe this is already included in these 5 points, but shouldn't there be 2 intercourse scenes scored? There's the shot on the sacks and then again later when Arya and Gendry are shown in bed. Implied sex. -the_catherine316

@dennis he doesn't really do crow killing anymore, so I'm onboard with changing this. This is outdated from S4. -nyan

Yeah I think generally if he says "crow" at all it should count now, as it's pretty rare as it is -dennis

Shouldn't Jon get points for this too and his embrace with Eddison Tollett? Considering he thought they may have been lost, to be reunited again since he left them at the Wall? -davidleelake
