It's the same thing when it comes to a show you love and the incredulity in your mind when everyone else say they not interested in watching it.

Buuuuuuuuuut, when 91 million downloads (the number of downloads outside of legal HBO means alone) and millions of others subscribed to HBO does, and you didn't, well.......you know where I'm going from there.

No peer-pressure to conform or be part of something just because everyone else does, God knows how much I hate that. I resisted playing online-based (team or solo)multiplayer MOBA games like DOTA2 and PUBG, so I know how you feel.

Only difference is, online multiplayer is stale in content and story, GOT isn't. If it's the gore that you're not into, how about nudity and sex? No? Manipulative sneaky outmanouvering politically or physically motivated? Also no? Or because the fantasy-based settings? You play DOTA2 or and of them clicky-clicky WOW or LoL? Also no? Don't like serious fantasy, only light-hearted fantasy like Harry Potter? Well.....once you get to know these GOT characters, some of them live and breath light-heartedness as their ONLY charm in their personalities, you just need to get to know them. Only watch anime/Chinese serials/Malaysian TV show contents regurgitated by Astro? I can't help you there. *shudder*

neither do I....

Cool!



Now who's hyped for the next Pokemon episode!!? /s

For a Kopitiam thread where everything goes, topics talked about gets more exclusive and narrower every time I read/look.

Erm i just care about my wallet for future pukimon tcg. See whether i can sustain to play this tcg or not. Just a matter of time i ditch it and go for cheaper tcg or just completely rage quit like video game

I'll wait patiently for my weekly dose of GoT on release day
leaked script/episodes or not, dun wan see, dun wan know and dun wan care
IMO those leaks spoil the weekly anticipation

Now I'm just hoping that GRRM fat old fart won't kick the bucket before he complete the remaining 2 books

Retro gaming land!

its heaven

U been there???

super potato? yeah been there din bought anything just play at the arcade machine

I have been wanting to go for a long long time

why wait while you're not getting any younger and your wallet is not getting fatter

go while you still got monies in the wallet and energy to play

yeah i go with little budget still having fun and end up overspending XD

Ouch, it's the truth but it sting.
Well I first started here like 9 years ago, WTF I'm so old now.

That's what I scared, sure overspend one, especially in Akihabara

By the time Sunday/Monday rolls by, all that's left are ashes, just like what's left on the Field of Fire in episode 4. People moved on quickly to the next one in the age of social media, and unless you mingle with friends who collectively can ignore all the onslaught of spoilers on social media, it'll be tough to avoid spoilers completely. Even titles on YouTube or screenshots are shared openly now. And its another 4 days to scheduled airtime.

Grab a pristine 1080p copy online, do your viewing party just like how you do it normally on Mondays. No different what? You only moved it a few days earlier. It's not like the screening time here in Malaysia being Sunday primetime 8pm, it's on Monday working day, at 10am, and unless you're collectively not working with your friends on a weekday Monday, you're gonna be watching it on Monday evening anyway. This isn't a blurry copy with timestamps like the leaked episode 4, this is a 1080p copy leaked by HBO themselves. It doesn't get any more legit than this.

It's also GRRM's fault for all this fevered anticipation with people gorging themselves on leaks: the fat f***er refuses to finish his two books and instead pass that torch to the two screenwriters of the show to do it. If he had finished the two books, the readers of the books who also watches the show, wont be so bothered looking for scraps of information about the series, and as far as and new information is concerned, the show is the only outlet where followers of the saga can get more info.....because the fat f***er refuse to finish the two books. They have nowhere to turn to but the show itself, and any legitimate and canonical source of information of the story (book readers or show followers), people will devour it like hungry starving men.

TL;DR: Fat f***er lazy finish the books, the show is the only source left, leaks makes people go crazy as it's the only source left.....because fat f***er refuse to finish the books.

Wow, this place has become so much quieter since I left many years ago..... some of my old pals like gundamalpha and sihumchai are no where to be found

gundamalpha already escaped to kangarooland and left us here to rot

sihumchai IINM last time was involve in some controversial dispute here in LYN, MIA already
