Game of Thrones Bracket

Hi All,

As some of you know, I've proposed doing a Game of Thrones bracket for the final season (picking who lives, who dies, and who ends up on the Iron Throne). It's based on a game that was trying to get money on Kickstarter, but was stupidly giving everything away for free at the same time... bad business model.

I built a spreadsheet to use to keep everything easier. Each of you has a tab with your name and, if you would like to play, input your guesses in your tab. You don't have to be a big Thrones person to play - much like March Madness, I expect someone with no knowledge to do comparably with someone who's read all the (currently-available) books and watched the show religiously.

There are more detailed rules and scoring inside, but the main points are as follows:

  • Each character can only be selected to die in one episode,
  • Multiple characters can die in a single episode, and
  • "Nobody" is a valid choice.
Best of luck all, and may the gods be with you: the old and the new.

Cheers,
Ryan
