Political Wins

21:32 (+3) White Walker (Night King):

Tormund and the Night's Watch discovers the grisly scene at the Last Hearth, where the White Walkers have massacred the inhabits. (Victorious Battle)

Why it doesn't count to the white army as well? -guy.v

This is a very fair question. Traditionally for battles and gaining a castle, it's been attributed to only the commander (else you could start arguing that every individual soldier on the winning side gets to double up on those points). But having the entire army as a group draftable is something new this season. I feel like this could go either way, though it's a little weaker since we didn't see any on-screen wights in action. -nyan

33:29 (+3) Jon Snow:

Jon: "I don't know how to ride a dragon."
Daenerys: "Nobody does. Until they ride a dragon." (New Follower/Prisoner)

submitted by nyan (approved!)

This is not explicitly in the rules, but I was thinking of setting this as a precedent - the first time a dragon and dragonrider pair up, it will be scored like a New Follower event for both. It's a bit like two characters agreeing to form an alliance. Any thoughts or protests to this? -nyan

This one didn't seem to get a lot of support but I'll add it actually. @jedjackoway that's a very good line of thought about new proposals, and generally it doesn't feel worthy to give points when characters are not even there (this is why the "references to..." Specials generally don't count if the characters aren't in the scene).

In this case my feeling is that this would be a good stat to count if there were generally a "Team White Walkers" draftable group (like team defenses for NFL fantasy). With the lack of characters, I think the Night King was drafted by many people as a stand-in for that. This also is hopefully not too OP (I expect we see this 1-2 times at most), especially for a character that's already top-tier. -nyan

Arya and Jon finally reunite in the Godswood of Winterfell and compare their fancy swords.

Arya: "Don't forget that." (Warm Fuzzy Moment)

After Bran issues a dire warning to everyone that the White Walkers are coming and how they don't have any time for this, Jon and Dany take a romantic getaway to the frost-covered waterfall on dragon-back.

Dany: "So keep your Queen warm." (Warm Fuzzy Moment)

“Heartwarming moments that are so few and far between on the show, as well as a consolation score for the heart-wrenching ones.
Also, a "you done fucked up" score for big regrets (see rulebook for criteria).
+5pts Warm Fuzzy Moment
+1pt Sad Feels
+1pt I've made a huge mistake.”

I would consider it a warm fuzzy moment.

Considering adding a category for "funny moments", that would apply to the Drogon/Jon interaction as well. The problem I'm struggling with is how to properly reward vs just throwing out free points to everybody who shows up in a scene. The funny line gives a score to Tormund who is the one delivering the payoff, it doesn't feel equitable that Edd and especially Beric are getting points just for being there. -nyan

What would be great is if we could come up with the scoring rubric for who gets points in a "funny scene" so there's a consistent guideline for future episodes. Drogon, Jon, Edd, Tormund feel like the deserving characthers here. This is also something I'd nudge towards the Feels category. -nyan
