armadeo:
Danny and cersei are different. Cersei has the issue of entiltlement while danny has to fight for what she wants. Danny is reasonable while cersei isn't . Cersei demands complete subservience while.Danny demands loyalty

True but I wasn't referring to all that, I was talking about how they each take on their world's - like nothing could befall them.

We all know how it would end though.

A song of ice and fire.

Danny ... fire of the dragons

Jon snow .. ice of the north.

Interestingly I wonder if Jon snows frozen seed can fertilize dannys hot eggs for a heir.

I look beyond the now.

Yeah

Looking forward to their first meet.

shegsrules:
Wow

Hehe

You people have come again, so the wun wun name was gotten from where na, open the door?

Don't mind me, just kidding

VULCAN:
As far as i know you wait for someone you are aware is coming.

I dont know how Jon was to wait for more men he didnt know existed

Exactly, so why blame her when the men finally pulled through?

She herself wasn't even certain of their coming hence her silence on the matter.

So I don't get what the hate rant is for, even after she saved their arses.

armadeo:
To Danny haters. The principle of her taking over the entire dothraki horde was simple. She killed all the khals in one blow and walked out of fire unhurt.

They look at her as divine a goddess not an ordinary woman. Do you honestly think the dothraki would follow a woman leader under normal circumstances.

That being said the only reason I am on her side is becaue of the man who drinks and knows everything and the bald unregistered unsullied.

Those are my peeps

Am also indifferent about her but still, I love the fact that she's got a huge army.

She started from no one to thousands? I give her that.

Plus her aura, I like that about her too. Cersei used to have that as well - the not giving a fvck persona

Gmajor:
what nonsense. Ppl keep raising this same trash over and over again. LF sold her to the Boltons. Contacting him was just an act of desperation. A case of try your luck. If she had told jon abt her plan and then the vale ppl didnt show again nko ?

I tire o

What's with these hate rants? She would have blown her trumpets when she wasn't even sure of littlefinger? Like she didn't tell Jon to hold on and he listened not like her opinion didn't matter.

Guys just getting all emotional, SMH!

armadeo:
Now I know something.

Lol.

Hehe

Pray tell

I vote for Mimzy. MissGdope.

This is what they are paying the contestants for their beauty pageant.
No wonder Nigeria is not moving forward.
A big thanks to Luxane, Fynestboi, Jarus, Dominique, Jaybee3, Ymodulus and Ifyalways for appreciating intelligence and promoting the sagacity of Nigerian students.
Just a pity that Seun appreciate beauty pageant more than intellectualism.
Cc. Abuklaw

It's a sad one really. On reading that, I couldn't help but wonder why Mr. Seun didn't do likewise for the debate.

Guess I'll never know.

donbenedict:
hey sup, pls wen is this year's couples competition going to commence?



Cc: tashaamania

Hi,

My team and I are yet to meet on that. But if anything, it should be after the pageant.

Lool

I sight all your posts BraniacX

A girl's name is Arya Stark and she's going home

That should be the end of the Many-faced God I think.

Valar Morghulis.

Yay! Finally we got winterfell *where is the dancing emoticon when you need one?

And he ran, the bastard frigging ran, lmao. I kept replaying that scene to my utter delight. Ramsay the coward, he will def be missed tho.

And that moment where Jon bragged about making ramsay angry on his one on one battle offer only to be made furious on seeing rickon killed right in front of him, heee. On seeing that rope with ramsay, I immediately knew he was going to kill rickon right in front of Jon, dude has always been predictably insane. Sansa was right about that.

@Gj22, was your prediction on the cliffhanger episode on point ? 'cus I recall reading something on that from you.

And I need to see cersei get into some action, she'd paid enough for her sins.

This cersei is frigging boring, I prefer the former.

Can't also wait for the war in the North...they better not disappoint.

InesQor:
GOODNESS GRACIOUS! Episode 4 of season 6 is the best episode of GOT I have seen in a LONG time!

Seriously?

I recorded this and saved it to see later, cos of a busy Sunday. Boy am I glad I did

Some of my best moments that got me shrieking like a banshee:
(a) Jon Snow meeting Sansa
(b) Tyrion Lannister's management of the crises and suggestion of a peace truce
(c) Theon Grayjoy reuniting with his sister
(d) Daenerys Targaryen's EPIC coda finis

The only thing I wanted to see and didn't was some more news about Arya's progress in enlightenment. Can hardly wait for the next episode. This is LIT like the fire that consumed the Khal and his Khalasar. Lol

At a, b, c, I concur but d? I wasn't the least thrilled.

And people just can't wait till 24 hours to post comments about the episode. This thread should be locked every Sunday by 7pm

Cc
Three-eyed raven

"Book of the stranger" . More like "The Reunion" to me.

And inasmuch I dislike the ramsay character (what the directors wants), he sure knows how to spice GOT up anytime, I give him that...i don't expect anything lesser even his letter wasn't.

"a wise man once said"

Haha. Still Team Tyrion anyday...

And brienne of tarth. I love that convo and that of Ser davos and melisandre as well.

I did enjoy the episode.

[quote author=Neyoor post=45587452][/quote]LASU was also not on the list and they were second runner up.

Does that also mean we erred?

Kindly speak up, I'll appreciate that.

Akanniade:
The three eyed raven told Bran he needs to know everything. Probably reference to Jon Snow's progenitors.

Yes Arya needs her first assassin mission.

More like going back to the Genesis of it all... Not a bad one.

Catalyst4real:
My suggestion


Scores and figures alone from the judges doesn't cut it anymore.


It promotes doubt, assumptions and controversies
The judges should back up the results with comments
It'll show that the results aren't mere sentiments but logical assertions

When a person is awarded low marks, the judges should comment on why the score is low and where the contestant got it wrong

And when a person is awarded high marks, likewise should be done.

It'll by far decrease the lack of trust of the audience in the judges.

Yes!

The Fourth edition promises to be more exciting than the previous, hence, if you belong to any tertiary institution and you are interested in repping your school, now is the time to indicate interest and build up your team.

Note.

Only undergraduates are allowed to participate.

Lapses.

I will be lying if I said there was none encountered. After each stage of the competition, we had lot of criticisms and suggestions expressed, and now that the competition is done and over with, we intend to sit and deliberate on each of them in order to come out with the best and fair way to serve you.

However, one thing I will not fail to mention is the fact that we gave our best in this
competition. And the judges picked out, they are all tested and trusted - and were never in any way biased while discharging their responsibilities (if in doubt, feel free to go through their respective profile on here and judge their e-persona). Also, none of them, I reiterate, none of them was ever slotted to judge their alma mater, no not one of them, hence, we are using this medium to apologize personally to any judge who felt offended by negative comments written about him/her during the competition.

This piece will not however be complete if we fail to also talk about one of our judges who passed on, by name, Freemanan or FreemanDave as he was fondly referred to on here, rest on dear friend, we are glad we got to know you, your capabilities and what you represent before your demise, your heartfelt impact towards NISD will be forever remembered.

You will surely be missed...

Adios Friend, till we meet to part no more.

[size=14pt]Coming Soon...NISD Fourth Edition.[/size]

Akanniade:
A wise man once said the true history of the world is the history of great conversations in elegant rooms.

Who said this?

Me.

Just now.

adexsimply:
They think you're some kind of god. a man who returned from the dead
I'm not a god
I know that. I saw your pecker. What kind of god will have a pecker that small?

I also enjoyed the convo between the three-eyed raven and bran stark.

Lord umber and Ramsay as well.

But am yet to understand why bran needs to go back into a past, one he wasn't part of, what's the motive? And isn't it about time he flies or that speech wasn't meant to be taken literally? I just hate to see him crippled.

Arya stark! I also can't wait to watch her play out, gonna be an interesting one

And Daenerys among the Dosh khaleen was like cercei right there or maybe they've àlways been that way, alike - strong and assertive until they get broken down.

If only olly had said something, with that look, dude was still bull beaded as ever, Jon loved him.

And congratulations to everyone for making NISD third edition a great success

Your suggestions are always welcome.

Neyoor:
It's being nice and interesting throughout the journey to the final so far.

So painful, this is the last time I would be repping my alma mata. Wish I could make it happen to rep them better before I grad but God knows best.


Alhamdulilah!


Goodnight pals!

It was nice having you around.

You are a great leader.

Will be seeing you as part of the organizing team next edition.

Congratulations to both teams.

It would have been an easy win having a one sided debate for the finals, no fun in that.

Your commitment to this debate is quite commendable.

Congratulations once again.

Congratulations Team LASU.

And @ Catalyst4real, it was good seeing you in the debate.

Abuklaw:
No amount of apology will suffice for my absence. I am emotionally and physically exhausted after a journey that lasted 42 hours.

This is what really happened.
