Unofficially Officially Unofficial Game of Thrones Death Pool discussion thread

Hello Movement! So far we have 1 episode under our belts and ZERO DEATHS!
What a disappointment. There's still 5 episodes to go. Certainly all your picks will die by the end.
If you chose Lord Umber or Robbie Macaroni, give yourself a pat on the back. But none of you did, so disregard that.
Best of luck to you all and may the worst Mover win.
Now for some nerd stuff.
We had 19 entries.
Most likely to survive according to the entrants:
Lyanna Mormont and Samwell Tarly tie with 18 Alive votes!
Little Sam in third with 17 Alive votes!
Tyrion, Gendry, and Sansa all have 16 Alive votes.
Gilly received 14 Alive votes.
Missandei had 13.
Meera, Nymeria, Podrick, and Brienne all round out the list of majority votes with 11 each.
Most likely to die:
NOBODY thinks Cersei, Euron, The Mountain, Beric, Melisandre, or Qyburn will survive the season.
Only 1 of you poor summer children thinks Jamie will survive.
3 hopeful people chose to believe that The Hound and Tormund make it through to the end.
Theon and Jorah both got 4 votes of confidence.
Finally Varys, Greyworm, Daario, and Dolorous Edd all got 5 votes of confidence.
Everyone else was somewhere in between 6 and 10.
Most likely to join the army of the undead:
6 of you heartless jerks think Tormund will join the army of the undead.
5 voted for Dolorous Edd, Euron, and Bran.
Scores as of episode 1:
Cory 23

Since no one of import has died, remember that a higher score now is directly linked with an optimistic outlook of the show.
Finally, if you think this has a happy ending... you haven't been paying attention.

I'm a slow learner. It's true.
Also hilarious moment for me anyways. I made up my own death pool list for a group of friends of mine and made them fill it out when they came over for the GOT premier. Naturally I used your list as a template and without realizing it including the name Daario Nyquillis without even giving it a second thought. Needless to say I laughed when it was brought up and then went on to explain to all my friends why his last name on the sheet was Nyquillis and not Naharis.
Are they cumulative (like, if that person is still alive after episode 2, they score another point?)? Seems weird.
Likewise, after you correctly predict a death, do you get another point after the next episode if they're still dead ...?
After thinking about it, it seems more likely that they aren't cumulative, and as people die, you'll be taking points off the board for previously surviving characters. But, I'm not sure.
This week the scores are unchanged! We're 1/3 through and ZERO (important) DEATHS. BOOOOOO!
[Changes in the rankings have occurred due to a mistake I found in the calculations on my spreadsheet. These scores are what should have been listed last week too.]
Also, @Teresa from Concord unfortunately there were not enough entrants for the bidet prize. This game is just for fun.
For the hell of it, I'm giving everyone 2 bonus points if Hodor shows up undead on the battlefield.
After episode edit: Welp, screwed the pooch on that one, but good for the pool!
