For this week's deadpool, I would suggest adding Lancel Lannister to the list.

Let's assume that it does get wrapped up in two more books. By % of time spent, the big bad guy of the series is "human nature." Which is fine, but makes the WW even more of a MacGuffin.

In the show's defense, the White Walkers are more present in the show than in the books IMHO. Generally speaking, though, WW seem to be used to create an air of dramatic menace without actually seeming like much of a threat. GRRM has written thousands of pages of meandering prose and finally, in the very end of the

White Walkers == The MacGuffin Brigade.

I think it is mostly just that Arya's training has appeared so ineffectual in the show. It's like Jaqen can't tell the difference between "broken" (or brainwashed) and "knows the right thing to say to get eyes back".

BTW, if you have Disqus-timestamped comments with your wagers, I can back-date your bets. Just let me know.

It should be noted that, unless I am crazy, the oddsmaker is losing money on these bets. The AVClub staff are all way up, pretty much.

I agree, a lot of these character odds seem like they need to be sweetened. This week is better than most in that regard. The Mountain / The Hound odds seem to be based on a foregone conclusion that CleganeBowl is happening this week, which there has been no sign of.

Nope, actually they are aligned with the Starks. It is more that you have the Vale, the Freys, the Lannisters, and Brienne of Tarth converging on the Riverlands.

If Arya uses her "training" it will be for some other purpose than the list. Although it seems that the only thing she learned was that she is not a hard-hearted killer. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Commentariat! I am working on a site that let's you play GoT deadpool along with the AVClub staff. The functionality is fairly bare-bones right now. It will record your wager. By this time next week I promise to clean up the user stuff so that you can compare yourself to the AVC Staff, maybe other users, and see other
