The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
everything comes in 7's in this show, and it would make sense to have a surprise, unannounced 7th episode that is the true series finale on the heels of what is being advertised as the series finale (the latter in which something drastic happens and pisses a lot of people off, only to be redeemed with the former)
Spoiler for that? Ok ... I guess.
Anyway they already ruined this by making 8 seasons.

Also, just in general, hate the watered down use of the word "theory." R+L=J was a theory because there was a mountain of evidence you could pick apart to try and prove it was coming. Same with something like The Hound not being dead. Tyrion being a Targaryen is a theory because there is juuuust enough circumstantial evidence to make an argument for it. Coming up with a fantasy of there being a secret seventh episode is not a theory (neither is something like, say, imagining that Get Out and Being John Malkovich exist in the same universe because they share an actor and some themes/plot points in common).
This is how I feel about pearl jam calling their officially released professionally recorded live albums "bootlegs" or calling every little sandwich a fucking slider.

You guys are on to something here. Keep it going.
It’s like thinking your birthday or zodiac sign is some unique special thing, meanwhile umpteen million other people have the exact same one.

My Hot Take Of The Day: Jon will not tell Dany about his parentage before the final showdown with the Others (assuming he finds out early in the season), because he will think it would be too much of a distraction. He will still be hesitant to do so afterwards.

That sounds very typical of ASOIAF/Game Of Thrones.

First draft:
[Insert Your Username]'s Game of Thrones Predictions
1. When the credits roll for SE08EP06, the Seven Kingdoms will be ruled by: __________
2. The following three characters will survive the wars of the final season*: ____________
3. The following three characters will die during the wars of the final season*: __________
4. My Hot Take for the season (a prediction that goes against conventional wisdom) is: _____________
5. I think the final "holy shit" moment of the series will be: ________________
***Having trouble wording questions 2+3, I don't want to say "will survive / will die in the final season" just in case the final episode features a flash-forward and we see, say, Sansa die peacefully in her bed at the age of 95
