Metaphysical Edge Cases and "Well Actually"s
- "Alive" means the character is walking around (or whatever it is Bran is doing) at the end of the episode OR is unconfirmed dead from injuries sustained at the end of the episode.
- If they die and come back as anything other than a wight, they are alive.
- White Walkers are considered alive.
- If a character wargs into an animal and their human body is killed, but the animal is alive, that character is alive.
- If a character dies in one episode and comes back in a later episode (ahem Jon Snow), points will be recalculated after the episode in which they are resurrected as the character is now alive.
- These people are ALIVE according to these rules (again: don't @ me):
- Jon Snow
- Gregor Clegane
- Beric Dondarrion
- Tormund Giantsbane
- Some characters who are probably alive aren't on the bracket. I just don't really care about Robin Arryn and the likelihood he will play any meaningful role in the final season seems slim to me. He doesn't get to play.
- If somebody who wasn't on the bracket comes back, too bad. They missed the draft. They don't count for anything.
- Any and all questions in regards to the rules will be decided by the game master (me). If you don't like it, you can figure out your own points system/rules amongst your pool.
