Why did you pick the character you did?
Because Arya is an awesome character and Maisie Williams is an awesome actress.
Plus I identify with relating more to the opposite gender.
Last year we did a thing where we said who on the forum reminded us of who on the show. The Summoner of Leviathan chose Melisandre for me, and I guess it kind of just stuck.
As for relating to her, I get the whole attitude of just not giving any smurfs what anyone else thinks about her. I admire that.
Because I like chickens.
Yeah, last year, I was originally Arianne Martell, who's book-only for now. I got a little sick of looking at my set and decided to do Meera, since no one had her claimed. Decided to go with Meera again this year since she's in the show and Arianne still isn't. D:
I was Tywin last year because he is the true ruler of Westeros just like I was the true ruler of EoFF. But my 'Hand of the Chocobo' days are over so I went with something different this time. Roose is a sneaky bastard who knows how to make the right relationships and use them to his advantage. He gets what he wants by any means necessary.
Because I'm slimy, yet adorable.
That's supposed to be a Varys set?
You think the man tagged with the nickname "The Spider" is adorable?Quote:

Pontus gets my vote for this sig :D
There's already someone with a Little Finger set.
Same reason Jinx used Melisandre: Jaqen H'ghar was suggested for me. He isn't bothered by much, which I admire in a person.
I didn't know who Margaery was when I chose her, but now I've come to feel like she is perhaps the best character to resemble me.
According to chat, apparently I have to follow ToriJ around everywhere due to my choice being Gendry and his being Arya. Anyway, I wasn't suggested Gendry at all. In fact, Sarah actually told me that Jon Snow would be my favorite character before I started watching and he most definitely was at first. In my opinion, he looks like a damn male Snow White, and something about those shoulder furs just makes me heave a sigh of admiration. But then there was Gendry: tough, rugged, strong, stubborn. "A bull-headed bastard." (Please keep in mind at this point I've only seen season 1 so far.) What I like about Gendry is that he lives a humble life, and he was born and raised as a blacksmith. From what I can gather he is a boy with a tender heart protected by weathered skin. He is the true heir to the throne, yet he lives and works basically in a damned stable and I don't ever imagine him complaining. Not once. He works hard for no other reason than he believes in his heart it is truly what he is supposed to do. His very first interaction with Arya shows us that he will protect those who he believes cannot protect themselves. By living like a peasant, he has become a greater king than not just Joffrey but any other man will ever be.
PS, this cretin has only seen the first season. Keep the spoilers to a minimum if you can! (we are working on season two today)
I also think my character fits me well because (SPOILER) of a little joke about me dating a number of admins/staff members here and also because I am a hippie and Highgarden is clearly the hippie hangout.
That explains why I bump into ya every time I turn around.Quote:

I'm not a pup. I'm a wolf :colbert:
I'm thinking of making a Pod set but I'm not very creative, particularly with visuals.
I've been compared to Pod alot, basically. :eyebrow:
What's a Hound to a Bull? I'm fresh out of chickens anyway.Quote:

I love how Game of Thrones season brings us all together.
I thought Ser Dontos was already written out of the show and I didnt want to take anyone too awesome like Hodor or Sam incase someone else wanted them so I took someone a bit less memorable.
Also because I remembered the scene he had would make a good SFW GIF and if I took Hodor I wouldnt be satisfied with any signiature that wasnt a GIF of the scene where his cock sways gently in the wind in the Godswood
I chose Viserys Targaryen because I really like Harry Lloyd's acting. He's a convincing bad guy who I love to hate. He's arguably the show's first pain in the arse.
Spoiler up to season 1 episode 6, but lolAttachment 52893
Jorah is awesome and no one recognizes him. He just tries to get the approval of his khalessi but she just pushes him off for daario.
Princess Jorah ftw.
He's a badass, that's for sure! He's one of my favorites, actually.Quote:

Well, I was Jon Snow (because y'know I know nothing) last year. I've actually been too damn lazy and busy to develop anything else to use in between seasons. I suppose I could revert to the sets Baloki and Jiro made me some time ago but I'd like to do something new.
it'd be kinda asinine if i switched to my last set...
I wanted to make a new gif using episode 2 but the juggling shot was too short and every other scene theres an object infront of Ser Dontos' face.
Because my favourite character (Tyrion) was already taken. So I decided to take the black sheep character that is going to be awesome as smurf as the series progresses.
Also, did anybody know Ramsay's actor was originally going to get the role of Jon Snow, until Kit Harington got it? There's a mind smurf for you. Try and imagine Ramsay as Jon.
I got Daenerys last year, this year she's taken, so I didn't change. :D
I'm an ugly wisecracking smurfer who in the Game of EoFF is the only one who speaks sense ;)
Maester Aemon is old. I'm old.
You trying to tell me you don't like chicken? :colbert:Quote:

I stole Dany just like she will steal the Iron Throne.
Actually idk. Last year I was Arya but I think ToriJ has her down now so I needed another lady to be so I just picked Dany because I love Dragons I guess :shobon: I'm already thinking of ditching my set though and going back to Tali because Tali.
Why pick a lady when you can have Jorah?
Can't steal what already belongs to you! :jess:Quote:

And one day she will reclaim what is hers.
We all know Dany is likely to die a slow painful death because she's one of the more popular characters and the person who ends up on the Iron Throne will be the last person that needs to be on it.
It will obviously be Hodor who takes it, at the end.
I relate the most with Sam, and plus he killed a white walker, which makes him a total badass. :D
Please.Quote:

Iron Throne is Dany's; if anyone else ends up with it I'll be highly disappointed in the series
I've gotta echo Pike here. I'm not a fan of Dany, but it's hers. I know that the whole point of usurping a throne is that it no longer belongs to the people who had it before, but it's hers. DRAGONS.
Plus, I mean, if we're going with the next true heir of Baratheons, we'd have Stannis. Do we want Stannis? No, smurf Stannis.
Yea but if Stannis dies it can go to Shireen who is of a good age to marry Rickon or Bran not that age difference ever stopped anyone from marrying in Westeros.
KING RICKON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1Quote:

hey guys how about we speculate in the actual game of thrones thread so as to not give anything away and foreshadow for people who are currently watching
I am not using my Game of Thrones set because my character is dead :(
I chose Littlefinger, because at EoFF there are two kinds of people - the players and the pieces.
Wrong. Gendry is truly next in line in the Baratheon bloodline, as he is the oldest son left of Robert.Quote:

True, but the Lannisters are all bastards as well, and have no royal claim to the throne. It's a good position for them, yes, but only because they weaseled their way into it.Quote:

The two who have the most legitimate claims are Daenerys as a Targaryen and Stannis as Robert's true heir.
I suddenly want to see Dany take on Stannis.
Stannis: I have an army.
Dany: So do I.
Stannis: I have a witch.
Dany: I have a dragon.
*dragons start burning Stannis army alive*
Dany: Three dragons to be exact.
Please let this happen.
Theoretically the more of Stannis's men he sends to their firey deaths the more the Red God will support him. Should probably move this conversation to the other thread...
