Default Game of Crowns

Okay, so since you're all into Everquest the television show, and since everyone I know freaked out about some wedding thing this week, I figured I'd start working on getting caught up on this nonsense.

I have a torrent running for season 1 and plan to watch the entire thing on 2x speed in VLC. If anything seems pretty important I may slow down to 1.5x, but either way, It was nice getting through the first episode in the amount of time it takes to get through an episode of Seinfeld.

First impressions: parties and fucking are pretty funny in double-time, and I liked when they put googly-eyes on the dead guy near the beginning.

(still MUCH faster than reading five books with 1k pages each)
So that is where you keep vanishing to! Rereading GoT every week to see what they did differently on the show!! jk we know you GMs are working hard to keep the realms safe on Norrath99.

Loved the books havent been able to bring myself to watch the show yet out of fear of disappointment(and just very little time to watch on sunday night)


Btw the picture above is off for some reason. Ohhh got it your missing Eccezan. Also can we get a before and after pic or maybe one updated as characters are killed off??

Eccezan lives beyond the wall (U.S. border that is) and has no relevance here!

I'm keeping up with the dialogue just fine, it's really not too hard to adapt.
Only problem I'm having is remembering everybody's name, which I would probably have at 1x speed. Like seriously, this Ned guy has like 20 kids.

if u are getting dialog, then i will shut my mouth! show cuts all the dreams from book 1. names are going to be hard because theres soooo many characters and so little screen time.

but if u have questions, u can ask me here or via PM later down the road [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

With twice speed, many facial and body expressions will be lost. A brief and serious pause will look like a hiccup.
