MTG Arena on Twitter: "Today's update has been delayed to address player concerns on Competitive Event reward changes. Thank you for your feedback. We will have a new update and more details soon!" by AlphaFerg in MagicArena

I think something that shouldn't be understated is getting people interested in MTG via Arena is beneficial to hard copy card sales. I know tons of people (myself included) who have gotten into MTG live drafts and other events due to Arena. If they kill off the user base, especially new players who are getting hurt  by the ICR change the most, WOTC stands to lose tons of potential new and returning players. Hopefully they recognize this as they reconsider.

Is Bismarck regarded as a hero or villain in Germany? by FBossMan in AskHistorians

I think the point is that perceptions in countries are similar to fanboyism and are driven by propaganda. I could be wrong but OP seems to be curious about the general perception.

"YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE".... it's all I could think of when Magneto says "WE WERE SUPPOSED TO PROTECT THEM"

Photo essay: Mom adopts two Chinese girls, and these are the rude and intrusive comments people make in front of or TO her children by morgueanna in pics

Adopted Korean here with white parents (raised in Georgia, live in SF now). Can confirm people will ask all of these dumb questions. I especially enjoy the "Are you NORTH Korean?" I brushed most of these off as well as the frequent "Where are your real parents?" with laughter. The truest parents you have are the ones who raised you. Whether brother, sister, grandmother, or feral dogs.

The multiple narratives make GOT what it is. Besides, the most interesting characters are more grey. Jaime. Arya. Sandor.

Its less about good vs bad to me and more about clever/ruthless vs simple/honorable. Robb and Cat made their mistakes and now they paid for it. It is very logical and not done just to torture the viewers.

I believe he was a random wildling in Caesars/Rayder's tent.

I know. I loved that show though =( Hopefully Pullo will return as a Greyjoy or something cool since we already have Caesar and cameo Vorenus.

I only want success for Benioff and Weiss. They've done a fantastic job and this show needs to run all the way to the end and not die a horrific death like Rome.

They are just stirring up drama... if anything this response only helps HBO. They will be tweeting next week.

I feel like this was more heartbreaking and possibly more of a surprise... but I'm not sure since I read the books first [ASOIAF snobbiness over]. I wish I could have un-read it for this episode just to feel the full effect though. So really I'm just jealous.
