Game of Thrones death pool (spoilers)

Assuming he really just ripped it off the world wide web verbatim, it says to choose who will be alive or dead at the end of the series, and each "correct answer" counts for 5 pts, so when GoT is done, a correct life or death guess should each count as points.

i think townie goofed when he interpreted the rule and started awarding points per death guess only with episodes left to play.
God I now have to defend townie. Cest la vie.


So townie didn't goof because Theon and jorah are dead. Those are a guaranteed 5 points (25 if bonus played) for those two deaths. What is dead cannot be alive.

How is this hard to understand?

5 points for being right. All we needed to say is dead or alive after episode 6.

You say all dead, then you get no points for those still alive.
You say all alive, then you get no points for those that died.


This is not a hard concept to grasp.
 
the wording could be better but the game doesn't make much sense if you only get points for guessing deaths and not the character's end-state

come on, it's not hard

5 points if you correctly guess if a person is alive or dead
 
You lose the 5 points for not picking the person being alive after episode 6.


Is it that hard to follow how a binary choice works?

I'm just reading Townie's rules, dick, which is why Biff and someone else picked everyone to die. Go fuck a soccer team.

Way to get aggressive over a silly internet game.

Go fuck a block of cheese.

If a character dies and turns into a white walker, they count as dead.
Each correct answer worth 5 points
Choose one option to count as 25 points
Entries must be received by Sunday, April 28 by 8:55 PM EST

You idiots need to learn reading comprehension.


Don't blame Townie because you're a dumbass.

Quoting ITC -- "i think townie goofed when he interpreted the rule and started awarding points per death guess only with episodes left to play."

Anyway, sorry I got so, so mad. Something just gets triggered inside me when someone says something as toolish as: "Is it that hard to follow how a binary choice works?"
 
You mad bro ?
