Game of Thrones - Who will rule? Odds and betting discussion [Odds updated!]

[bbc.reporter]

The ending was Okay. But they rushed it too fast. They could have stretched it one more season but they ended this season with fewer episodes.
They missed many important details and their was poor editing. A coffee cup and a water bottle, soldier asking to open fire? Seems like they hired a cheap crew to get the work done.

Maybe not the full season. But I agree, it is too fast. Maybe 10 series would be better describing changes in characters. And yes, putting modern  things into picture means they were too lazy to look for details.

I believe this is why they are doing the spin off shows to extend it over other storylines.
Naomi Watts was speculated to play one of the red queens of the lord of light.
But I completely agree with tsaroz it did seemed to be rushed to close it out in just 6 episodes for the final season.
I doubt it was due to budget constraints.

GOT is the one of the most successful series in the history, surely budget was not an issue.
The story is good but the negligence are unforgivable. There's a meme circulating where the unsullied commander reaches top faster than the moving John Snow character. And how on the earth would the 6 kingdoms let a cripple rule them from voting and let his sister had an independent nation? They would have asked for independence too.

Budget was the issue, however. The budget they spent on cgi dragons, Ghost and Nymeria were very high, so they had to limit their appearances in some episodes. This was mentioned in some interviews.

We might have seen Nymeria and her pack versus the Night King if there were no budgeting issues, I reckon.

Budget spent on dragons was not very high when they first introduce the creature. - all Dragons created in one Indian 3d Studio- couple of my friends worked on the dragons- including famous -Hodor holding door scene-

Not sure about recent budget tho..

bbc.reporter you might want to change the topic from " Who will rule" to "Who will Rant"

Haha we're still ranting online. The cast interviews before s8 release has resurfaced and Emilia Clarke's "Best Season EVER!" has become quite a meme, even more now after the show has ended.

An undead continent would have been far more interesting than what they gave us. Then they can use it as setting for a spin-off later.

Yeah that is what I have been thinking off the Night King showing that the power of men is really worthless with all their selfish desire to be one on top, making them part of his loyal blue-eyed servants would teach us a lesson that power doesn't really matter in the series. There are really at times where I just wished the battle at winterfell ended badly and they made their real last stand at King's Landing where they have also failed but that's just some fantasy for mine.

Would be interesting if the Night King just takes all the population of Westeros up north, leaving a few WWs to haunt the region. The people of Essos would find the continent abandoned and they'll treat it as cursed like Valyria. Slowly they forget about this and they start creating colonies and we know what happens next...

I think now anyway the Game  of Thrones is over and no more betting is possible  here.

Is it already a time to bet on something in a prequel  story? I know there is not much info about it, but at the same time everyone is free to express his thoughts there.

@thin yea game of thrones ending has left a huge void to fill, I’m not sure which other shows we can place a bet on for the time being. There’s no way you can bet on the prequel now, as it will take at least 1 - 3 years for them to get the show started. I have read mixed theories regarding the prequel some say they’ll go back to 1000 years and show the long night again, others say we will see the mad king, Jon’s parents story but so far there’s no official word on it.

Very disappointing with how the show ended and I mean come on how about giving us 1 more season to wait for.
I lost most of my GOT bets I made and I feel there is so much more they could add to this story so give the people what we want.

Even if they decided to offer us one more season, I would never see it.
I am so disgushed about the show that I don't want to spend time on it anymore. I expected a better end with an anticipation of more action in the last episode.

Still talking about this shit? Is this still a thing? this is crypto. And GOT is so last week. (

It should be discussed in offtopic. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5117367.0

This is crypto and there is a new master of coins

I guess I should start watching that show lol

Maybe you can relate to it by the post I made a few weeks ago on it from a certain coin is like which warring faction.

Ahahaha! mighty bitcoins. Today you are down LOL
Don't go further!
Well I don't care thought 🙂

Just to break the boredom of price watching on this hump day
And game on coming in april.


Bitcoin is the king on the throne!

This is a great coin map you have made here, I have never thought about what coins the different fractions cut have been if they where cryptocurrency.

Hah, I forgot about that post you made, I was outta merit at the time but rectified that now.

I did not made any bet on Game of Thrones, but I am also very sad on knowing that this was the last season. I have been watching games of thrones from the first season and never missed any episode. I can't believe this show is now ended forever.

Very nice picture!  I'm not only sure that characters of the cryptocurrencies chosen properly.  For ex why Ned Stark represents bitcoin? BTC should be a real King, and Ned was never even a King in the North!

But it does not matter, it just for fun, for both crypto enthusiasts and Game of Trons fans.

What the ending could (should ?) have looked like :

[TheCoinGrabber]

Came back here coz after weeks of denial, I've finally goaded myself to watch ep5-6 though I've already seen enough clips of it. Did it in one sitting. I was left feeling hollow. Like "that was it?".

Anyway, didn't quote that long discussion but someone should write a fanfic based on that, with each crypto personified and vying to dethrone fiat (definitely one of the big villains).

Maybe bitcoin & friends could do a episode dedicated to game of thrones and pitting himself against the evil bitcoin cash or craig wright.

That would be an instant hit.

Game of Thrones season 8 was bad and has disappointed all fans who watched it, luckily when I read those leaks I skipped seeing the finale as it was the worst possible ending I could have imagined for Game of Thrones. If you wish to see more fanbased work then go to Reddit Game of Thrones, you’ll find lots of stuff that fans make in tribute to Game  of Thrones. Also I would suggest you to post your request there for someone to make a script, cause chances are someone will make it as they’re really passionate when it comes to Game of Thrones.

Not just an episode. Like GOT fans had said, it could have been another season.

Haven't checked Reddit in while, might do just for the fanfics. We watched a D&D fanfic anyway, so why not read more? Haha.

[eternalgloom]

I'm probably the only who who doesn't think season 8 was that bad, I really enjoyed it
Well, except episode 3, that was way too dark to see anything.

I mean everyone wanted to see that epic battle and in the end all the scenes were just way too dark.

There are brightened versions of it available for download. I have even seen a sample 4k version of it in Youtube where the Dorthraki and Jorah charging the white walkers the brightened version was cool but to be honest the entire season sucked for me. I'm the type of watcher that don't expect anything every season but I feel that everything was rushed considering that they they started the series with a slow pace two episodes. Everything felt like they ended the season with every main character (not including Dany) having a perfect place in Westeros.

It was not bad. It was very disappointing, however. The writers set up some characters for 7 seasons and they ended their story arcs like they have forgotten that there was a set up hehehe.

Does anyone have more rants? Do it now, I will lock the thread in 3 days.
