    Cool! I only just noticed that MFP now has a forum specifically dedicated to challenge announcements.

    Anyway, although I am sitting out this particular round, I can personally attest that the Game of Thrones Challenge is awesome.

    Join the fun!

    To add: You do not need any book or TV series knowledge to participate. There will be some items from the storyline, but there is nothing that would exclude any non-book readers/TV series watchers.

    I've borrowed this quote from the announcement of the very first round of Game of Thrones (which began in April of last year).

    Don't miss out on this challenge, just because you are not a fan of the books or the show. You do not need to have read the books or watched the show to enjoy and follow along with this challenge.

    What are the other house names? I wasn't sure, so I didn't specify one in my message. I would be ok with any of them, as long as I could participate! :)

    The other houses are Tyrell, Baratheon, Greyjoy, Martell, and Lannister.

    In case there is any confusion, once you join the forum you will find threads for the houses (teams). You must post in one of these threads to join the challenge.

    Only one spot left in House Lannister!

    Space still remains in Greyjoy, Martell and Baratheon... Tyrell, Targaryen and Stark are currently full.
