I've watched Game of Thrones, and I have so many questions.

@chaosprime well, first of all: people hate Sansa? why? -
@jennygadget not everybody. when they do, it's usually about her being all starry-eyed starting off & betraying people horribly b/c of it. -
@chaosprime I...just...she's THIRTEEN at the start of the book/show. Just bc she's not stupidly brave like Ayra * sigh * -
@jennygadget yeah, it's pretty unfair, which i'll admit as somebody who used to be on the Sansa-hate bandwagon -
@jennygadget i'm deeply goddamned impressed by her now tbqf -
@chaosprime yup. She's had to try to navigate political scheming at its most deepest and dangerous. without her parents. at 13-15. damn -
@jennygadget once she started rising to the occasion it was pretty amazing. the way she's working Baelish, holy crap.

@chaosprime #2: so do the white walkers only want boys, or was that just Craster's thing? -
@jennygadget unclear; Craster has a clear motivation for sex-selecting babies, the white walkers nothing so clear -
@chaosprime have we seen female white walkers? if not, that seems like possibly important but likely merely an oversight by the boys. -
@jennygadget none clearly so, but as distorted from human baseline as they are i'm not sure we'd know to look at them

@chaosprime #3: how much time passes between S0101 and S04E10? bc the timeline feels screwy but its so hard to tell. -
@jennygadget i think about 720 days? it's tough because they don't have Earth seasons and all -
@chaosprime ah yes. - how do they measure years then, I wonder? :p -
@jennygadget according to this http://scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/4776/what-is-a-year-in-westeros … it's a 365-day solar revolution -
@jennygadget i guess they just must have some weird complex axial wobble going on that makes seasons long and inconsistent -
@chaosprime heh. I wonder how much GRRM thought it through? :p -
@jennygadget i'm guessing less than hard military SF writer would have and more than the median fantasy writer would have. :)
