The issue with logging in with email addresses has been resolved.
Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.
Yep. Of course, arrows show by a Huntress are something else.
Yeah. Not that that will make Tywin change.
Well, given how volatile Dust is - sneezing can set it off, as Ruby demonstrated on her arrival at Beacon - we might never know if it was a failed ritual or a simple accident.
Well...
Varys: That's exactly their plan! You see it! I see it! Why don't others see it?
His biases are too big to look at them objectively. Also, he's a bit too reluctant to let go of all his plans so far - especially without Dany having hatched her dragons yet to be a possible counter.
Yeah. And...
Chapter 30: Twists
'One thing that is often overlooked when studying the martial achievements of the Ruby Order is their influence on facing and fighting magic threats. The Four Maidens were amongst the first who trained specifically to face magic users in combat and did so at the very...

Alliance Headquarters, Brussels, Belgium, September 30th, 2000
"...despite the latest polls showing a continuing loss of support for anti-magic regulation, the campaign has not shifted its policies so far, a stance not mirrored by the majority of the...
There's no fundamental difference between magic and guns in the story. None. Zilch. Both can be used for good, for recreation (I've got my old service rifle, a StGW-90, but with the burst fire and autofire disabled when I was discharged from the Swiss Army after serving my time as well as a...
He underestimated her stupidity :). Well, Blake just found a wildfire cache... But the faceless men were mentioned...
Alas, she only discovered the cache under the Dragonpit. When that was discovered in canon, Tyrion thought it was an odd but good spot to store the stuff, and only felt that...
Chapter 29: Cracks
‘It is remarkable, even in hindsight, how quickly the Ruby Order managed to establish themselves as a powerful faction at the Court. Some scholars claim that as proof that they wielded fantastical powers, some even going as far as to claim that they presented a credible...

Spacelab, Earth Orbit, September 19th, 2000 (Earth Time)
Samantha Carter had missed this. Working in an advanced laboratory, on important projects, without being disturbed by the latest news from Earth detailing a new scandal - and she never could be...
That will be revealed in the next chapter.
Joffrey's got other concerns than bastards right now.
Three-Eyed-Crow: *swallows* I'm just a normal bird!
It takes a lot to poison a Huntsman/Huntress even with their Aura low, as Qrow's fight against Tyrian proves.
Chapter 28: Childhoods
‘Another area where the Ruby Order’s views significantly differed from those of Westeros of their era was how children were supposed to be raised. In a time when children were, whether amongst the smallfolk or the nobility, overwhelmingly considered an - even economic -...
As a matter of fact, shooting a lynchmob would likely improve the defendant's case - although only marginally; in those situations, the outsider is already guilty in the eyes of the local law.
