Season 6, Episode 10 - Massive Spoilers

Season is over. But I am leaving the scores as preliminary in case anyone wants to argue over any of my decisions. I have theories which go against the way I have scored this, but initially I am scoring everything we saw on screen at face value. So here are the decisions as they currently stand.
    Section 1: Dany and Tyrion
  1. No, Dany did not come back to Westeros
  2. No, Dany and Jon did not “get together”
  3. No, Dany and Tyrion did not “get together”
  4. No, Tyrion did not become king
  5. No, Tyrion did not marry again
  6. Section 2: Arya
  7. Yes! Ayra did come back to Westeros (maybe?)
  8. No, Arya did not die (maybe?)
  9. No, Arya did not reunite with any sibling
  10. No, Arya did not reunite with Nymeria
  11. Section 3: At the Wall
  12. No, the Night’s Watch was not annihilated
  13. Yes! Jon Snow was brought back to life by Melisandre
  14. No, Jon Snow and Melisandre did not “get together”
  15. Yes! Jon’s parentage was definitively revealed (maybe?)
  16. Section 4: In the North
  17. Yes! Ramsay died
  18. No, Ramsay did not get Sansa back
  19. No, Sansa did not become Lady of the Vale
  20. No, Sansa did not become queen
  21. No, Sansa and Littlefinger did not “get together”
  22. Section 5: King’s Landing
  23. Yes! King Tommen died
  24. No, Cersei did not die
  25. No, Cersei and Jaime did not get married
  26. No, Jaime did not avenge his daughter’s poisoning
  27. BONUS: The Dead Pool
  28. Arya killed four people (or did she?)
And so, here are the tentative end-of season standings
If you want to argue, have at it. But for now, it looks like Greg pulled through in the end.

Season 6 Episode 9

There we go. Ramsay does not get Sansa. But he does get killed. Oh yes, he does get killed.
Plenty of movement in the scores this week. Brie takes the lead with a PAIR of correct 99 percent picks. Faithless Ryan, thinking Ramsay was likely to live, falls to the bottom.
One more episode to go.

Season 6 Episode 8 - Preliminary Result

Okay folks, I am preliminarily ruling that “Arya” is in fact Arya and not Waif with Arya’s face. This does not yet change the current score.
The expected scores, however, I have updated to reflect the non-zero count.
Feel free to argue.

Season 6 Episode 7

Well, that was certainly fun. Initial ruling from the bench: if Arya dies as a result of her own stupidity, her death will not count in the bonus Dead Pool— merely Section 2.
Still no new score, though.
Anyone out there? Are we having fun yet? Next season, maybe I will be on the ball and send out a request for items rather than a last-minute questionnaire. That way, we might have better questions and more scoring in the first two-thirds of the season.
