Game of Thrones, tv only, books don't exist, no backstory...NERDS already ruining a series that hasn't started (9 Viewers)

Question for book readers.

Is winter a push or a pull situation?

Does the proximity of the white walkers bring winter to a certain radius from their location, or are they restricted in some way to staying within the boundaries of what is winter?
I think they bring the winter.

There was an observation online (I don't know how true it is) that if you look at the map of Westeros at the beginning of this weeks show, the ocean near EastWatch(the place Jon said the Walkers would be marching towards) is white/frozen after being blue all these seasons.

besides the wall?

we discussed this exact thing last week... I thought, given the way we see the cold storm/wind/air surround the white walkers and at their arrival on scene that they are bringing a colder winter into an existing winter.

Unlikely that they bring the winter - its been 1000s of years since anyone has seen a White Walker... but we know Winters have come and gone with some regularity.  If White Walker's caused the winter, it seems someone would have seen them in the last 1000 years.

I think regular winters come and go. A winter like this comes once in a millennium or two and when it does, the Walkers bring extra cold and frost with them. But I also think it already has to be a naturally occurring winter for that to happen. 

 
1. Yara

2. Cersei

3. Khallesi

4. That Handmaiden of Khallesi banging that fat guy in Qarth.

18. Frey's daughter who married Edmure

19. Roz the Whooo-re

20. Missandi. 

Pretty easy. 
Sorry but you only listed 19 ahead of her so she IS in the top 20.

 
As many of you know by now I cannot remember many of the characters names.  However, I can relate when people say booby sand girl.  She definately is way hotter.  Cersei, Sansa, Rob Stark's wife, Red witch, Ramsay mistress, Danaerys, multiple girls from brothel, girl Arya took to kill old guy, sand girl sisters, sand girl mom, natalie dormier, and many more I can't think of right now are hotter.

If all of those ancillary, and I mean ancillary like "Multiple girls in the brothel," and, "Girl Arya took to kill old guy," were even close to as hot as her, they wouldn't be in bit parts on this show. Not liking the hair thing says a lot.

Not true at all.  She is a fine actor, I will give her that.  Briene of Tarth must be hot to you then?

This. Winters come and go but the Walkers bring the storm.

If they brought the winter, why wait to go South when they can go anytime? 

 
btw- wife and I watched some period british monarch thing a while back... the white princess/queen? ... and caitlyn actress played the queen mother as more of a cercei role.
White princess.  White queen is the first one.  It's about the war of the roses.  Imo, queen is better but both are good watches.

They couldn't go south because there was a big giant magical wall in their way
Right. What I mean is if their presence created the winters they could go south around the wall in the frozen sea anytime they so desired. So it looks like they are simply going to take advantage of the Long Winter and aren't creating it.

I would feel kind of disappointed if they just walked around the wall. That's kind of goofy - couldn't they just do that whenever they wanted then and especially so if the winter comes with them. 

I guess we're still not sure of their motivations, maybe they were waiting for this specific time to strike?

I should have kept scanning before I responded... you pretty much covered it.

Looking for approval and affirmation from parents.

Please elaborate
That's it. Nothing special or fancy. We don't chat or anything. We've exchanged a few words. I doubt she'd recognize me if I ever saw her again. I've met most of the regular cast. Most of them are pretty friendly. Nobody has ever been mean, just some are a bit more closed off. Jamie and dickless are probably the nicest/most outgoing. Missandai is stunning. Admittedly I'm biased as she's more my preferred type anyhow, but in person she's waaaay above all the other women. It's really weird but I'm terrified of Dinklage. Dude always seems incredibly intense.

Cool stuff. I can see that about Dinklage. Have you met Emilia Clarke?
