@samunosuke here. Do not sneakily unfollow after a while.

Okay so wat happens next.....? could share your experience with me. thanks

What happens next is that it ships and gets delivered to the family house in US then one of my relations sends it to me. Simples.

luxanne:


Too bad. I was earnestly looking forward to that battle tho, seeing the bloodbath would have been epic just like the hardhome's

Yeah, ever since the Battle of Blackwater which was very detailed in the books but was basically glossed over in the series, I tempered my expectations for large scale battles in Got.
It's also part of the reason that episode 8 of season 5 left me breathless. I wasn't expecting such epic scenes. Reminds me of a few hopeless situations in The Walking Dead.
That ending though, when the Chief White Walker raises his hands and the dead come to life. I passed out. Epic. Amazing. Highlight of the series so far for me because I am genuinely curious about the white walkers.

luxanne:
So how did tyrion, daario and all escaped being butchered

And why didn't they show us that fight between stannis and bolton rather than just giving us the end of it


And that was so touching between myrcella and jamie, too bad she had to die...I suspected that kiss was outta line.

Got has never really focused on the battles themselves but the outcomes and stories that result from them. "Hardhome" was epic though and it was used to tell us more about white walkers and an additional way to kill them (valyrian steel).

The books and the series aren't actually on par yet. The series is ahead of the books in some stories while the books are ahead in others.

temitimx19:

How did you do that please share?! thanks in advance

Ummm.....Thought I just did? Use your Nigerian billing address for the debit card but instead of city = asaba, state = delta etc, you put in city = smallville, state = Kansas etc. Also put a valid US post code and phone number. That is all.

~deleted~

tonjeola:
so u can use naija cards on bestbuy? Good one!

Actually, you can't. They only allow US billing addresses so I tweaked mine. Used the Nigerian address but used my US shipping address's City, State and Post Code. Use at your own risk.

gj22:


"You know nothing" doesn't prove anything.

People are just biased because they feel anybody that does magic is evil. And Stannis wasn't at kings landing. He was at dragon stone.

You are right, "you know nothing" proves nothing but the article points out several other events which support the theory of Jon being the son of Rhaegar and Lyanna Stark.

Stannis sailed directly to the wall after his defeat @ the blackwater in King's landing. I know his base was Dragonstone.

Read an article on Forbes that said Jon Snow is a Targ and I believe it. All this talk of "you know nothing" also points towards that. There is also no way that Dany can control 3 fully grown dragons by herself.

I don't know why people have problems with Melisandre's magic when there's plenty other magic in the kingdoms - wargs/skinchangers, many-faced god, the others, dragons etc. And so far, she is the only one outside the wall who recognizes the threat of the others and dragged Stannis from Kings Landing to prevent the wall falling to wildlings. I think her aim is to get Stannis to rule so that she'll have support against the others. My 2cents.

Just bought a Lumia 635 for $25.66 = #5268.15 @ 205.305 from Bestbuy with my Union Bank Mastercard. Transaction was on 10 June but the alert just came now.
Meanwhile, I used amazon currency converter rate of @208.47 after checking the UBA Mastercard rate here.

Nature of the beasts, according to
Haggon:
Dogs are easy to bond with,
because they are so much like humans
and trusting; it becomes easier with
time to enter one.
Wolves are harder; one has to forge
a lasting bond, much like a marriage. A
man might befriend a wolf, even break
a wolf, but no man could truly tame a
wolf.
Birds are very tempting, but a warg
may soon lose contact to the mundane
things of earth, and want only to fly.
Cats are cruel and vain beasts and
can’t be easily controlled, only forced.
Elk and deer are prey; wear their
skins too long, and even the bravest
man becomes a coward.
An unwritten code of ethics for wildling
skinchangers, as told by Haggon,
forbids them:
To eat of human meat.
To mate as wolf with wolf.
To seize the body of another man.
So wolves are hard.

Gbola5:


That was Sixskins. See this...

A skinchanger is a person with the
ability to enter the mind of an animal
and control its actions. It is much
easier for a skinchanger to do so if a
bond exists between the two parties. A
skinchanger able to enter the mind of a
wolf or dog is known as a warg .

So those who can enter anything else are skinchangers not wargs. Warg is a branch.

Ok. I am convinced. Although, I doubt wolves are harder than humans. And grouping people who bond with wolves (hard) and dogs (easy) as wargs just seems like it was done just because of the family of animal.

sage1000:


He is correct. Skinchanging is the general term for anyone that can enter the consciousness of animals while wargs is a term used for those that can enter wolves.

The TV show just uses warging as a catch all term for all skinchangers.

Bran has entered something far more difficult than a wolf (Hodor). Arya has used hers to 'cheat' @ the house of black and white. I don't know why warging is a specific term for skinchanging to direwolves if they aren't the most difficult to possess. The wildling that possessed a bird was a warg and immediate the wildlings saw Jons ability, they labeled him a warg too.

Gbola5:


Yeah. But its actually called skinchanging. A skinchanger may not be a warg, but a warg is always a skinchanger. The difference is, different animals have different effects on the skinchanger and some can be difficult to enter, a warg is a skinchanger who enters the minds of wolves and dogs. All Stark kids are wargs, its their blood of the first men, and therefore are also skinchangers.

What is this one even saying sef? Don't want to get into spoilers but you are confusing yourself.

I don't even bother using aircrack-ng to dictionary Crack WPA2 networks again. Reaver-wps works far better because once I get the wps pin, no matter how many times in a day the password is changed, I can get it in less than 5 seconds.
The wps pin is hard coded into the router and can only change with the hardware. It has also been discovered that even if wps is switched off, about 90% of routers out there are still susceptible to this attack.

So this Rivers Prof can't read what he wrote? SMH.

This Rivers Prof. is a joker. Saying you are not joking when people are laughing at you, will always make them laugh more. #BlindBat

Enough with the delay! What is Jega's problem with time? Giving people unnecessary high b.p. Let's get this over and done with.

Thought I had posted this here earlier.

UBA are bloody criminals!

Ordered from amazon about 3 weeks back. Amazon automatically detects the currency your card is in and instead of charging in dollars, they offer the option of billing you in naira to cut out exchange rate fluctuations.

Amazon gave me a rate of 209 but since i have had better rates from UBA in the past, I chose dollars and UBA charged me about 230. About 4 items had shipped before i realized this, so I quickly cancelled the remaining items (amazon only charge your account when the items ship but they place a hold on your account for the required amount immediately you place the order), waited for about 2 days for the hold to clear and then ordered again using amazon's currency converter in naira. Result: UBA still charged 230+.

For a total order of about $1000, i paid about 20k extra for no reason.

Really pissed off, but I just don't have time for them right now. When i'm a lil' bit more settled, I'll face them

Would have switched back to GTB but i have 2 issues with them:

1. It's a current account, COT ruins it .

2. They are fond of double charging or whatever and then returning it after a while (usually at the end of the month). EFF that!

Access bank is looking sexy though.

Can someone tell me how to log back in to nairaland? Had to go dig up a browser i was logged into, that i haven't used in ages just to post this. I was forcefully logged out last night during the election result stampede and i don't know who I should sacrifice and to what deity in other to log back in.

Edit: Just discovered opera mini wasn't showing the verification page for the code login. My bad. All good now.

Did a lot of research before getting this bad boy. Perfectly balanced in every way and was in notebookcheck.net top 3 multimedia notebooks at the time of purchase (October '13). Only wish I had waited 6 months for the gtx 850m maxwell update. Oh well, still love it.

Wanted to order a few things online for the holiday season only to see this rubbish. This country only gets worse by the second. Imagine rubbish, #180 to the dollar. God help us.

I'd like to receive it also. Test is tomorrow. owoch at hotmail.com Thanks.

Ubisoft are not to be trifled with. Reports of unoptimization of their last few games are numerous especially Watch Dogs. I don't have much time to game plus I have a lengthy backlog of games I can currently run that I haven't played, so i'll hold out a bit. But this new trend of excessive requirements for games is very annoying.

What sort of systems do you guys have? The MINIMUM specs for Unity state a gtx680 not m, desktop class. That's insane! Thought I'd be able to manage my i7-4700hq and 750m for a while but at this rate, I'll need to build a desktop with at least a gtx970 soon.

phayvorr: its a nice concept sha but i'm still not happy with the idea of limiting we nigerians nd asking us to update our bank details always.....abeg howmany atm card una want make I add?

I verified only 1 card and haven't had any issues with it since. Been shopping like no mans business. The report is slightly deceitful though, because I've been shopping on amazon with domiciliary accounts/dollar visa cards and more recently, normal naira mastercards since ~2009. The only (non)problem is shipping to naija of which I have a million relatives and friends in the US who can either ship it or bring it down.

I was able to use my naija opened paypal account to buy both xbox one and xbox 360 controllers from ebay. Payment went through successfully and the items have been delivered to my cousin's house in the US. Also used it to purchase both the humble 2k and codemasters bundles. It works flawlessly everywhere I tried it but ensure the site has a delivery address field because paypal will only allow you to set a nigerian address. Luckily, ebay does and my cousin's address is my primary address on ebay.

Bros tell me more I use samsung galaxy s,how do I manually configure d dns. Thanks

I'm not using an android phone so I don't really know. Just google your model followed by "manually configure dns".

#122# to check your data balance
Am enjoying all my accumulated data now with elele speed

luluosas:
Dial #122#. Thank you.

Many thanks to you guys for the replies. I've figured out a way to get mine browsing again. For anyone who has tried all the access points (gloflat, glosecure, glogwap etc) and it still browses slowly, all you have to do is manually set your DNS servers. For some reason, some people have poor connectivity with theirs so you can use google's - 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. The steps for each os/phone are different so research yours. My connection is blazing fast now whereas I couldn't even browse before. Just a heads up!

Does anyone know how to check the bounce data balance? #124# only gives me 2 options now - 1 to check balance and 0 to quit. #124*4# gives me a message "your request concerns an invalid bundle" and I've tried all access points and can't browse. What's up with the bounce? Used to work flawlessly for me even with blackberry.net.
