IIRC Dickon/Rickon is the younger brother Samwell’s dad long favored, threatening to have Sam die in a “hunting accident” if he didn’t join the Night’s Watch and forfeit any claim to the family title. ---

Wait a sec, Rickon is a different character. He was the youngest Stark brother, who took an arrow from Ramsay. Was there supposed to be some significance to Jaime mistakenly calling him that? ---

He actually mistakenly called him “Rickard”, which is Ned and Benjen’s dad’s name. I’m not sure of the significance there, if there is any. ---

The big HBO leak and ransom attempt released the E4 SCRIPT, and actual episodes of other shows. This mornings E4 leak was a separate thing apparently. ---

Is it your schedule? I personally get a kick out of these online discussions about the show, so while I don’t want to stream it too late, I don’t see any reason to watch it early either. ---

the story is they skip showing battles because they cost a lot to film. They only film about 1 per season due to budget limits. ---

Because I want to know what happens. I’d watch the whole season in a day if I could. I can be patient, but if I don’t have to be, why should I? ---

Why wait though, assuming you had access? It’s not like watching it early would prevent anyone participating in the discussions. ---

> [@Rigamarole](#): > > Why wait though, assuming you had access? It’s not like watching it early would prevent anyone participating in the discussions. Having not waited, I can answer that. If you don’t like three separate watermarks that are persistent throughout, and subpar video quality, you may prefer to wait. I can’t wait to watch it again in full quality. ---

> [@Rigamarole](#): > > Why wait though, assuming you had access? It’s not like watching it early would prevent anyone participating in the discussions. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with watching it if it’s out, I just figure I’ll wait because 1) it looks better on HBO than on streaming sites, and 2) I like discussing it with others here on the Dope and elsewhere, so I don’t see a reason to watch it early when I’ll have to wait to talk about it anyway. If it was leaked six months early that might be a different story.
