    Sporcle Spectacular- Forging The Three- Edition 2

    It's a mic check!  The Isle needs to check equipment, location, and whether I can remember how the hell you use Audacity. The way to do that? A sporcle spectacular! Need a laugh? Come join me as I struggle to remember who's who, what's what, and where's where (plus plenty more) Come along, have a go, and most importantly let me know how the audio sounds (also how you are, if you fancy)

    Sporcle Spectacular- Forging the Three

    It's a mic check! Why? Cos these aren't decent mics we're using. The Isle needs to check equipment, location, and whether I can remember how the hell you use Audacity. The way to do that? A sporcle spectacular! Need a laugh? Come join me as I struggle to remember who's blonde, who's who in the Night's Watch (which I just typed out as Nightwatch if you need a clue how much I've forgotten), and who has a son and who doesn't, plus plenty more. Come along, have a go, and most importantly let me know how the audio sounds (also how you are, if you fancy)

    Sporcle Spectacular: Forging the Five IV

    It is true. After much gib-gab and mucking about, I actually managed to get back in front of a mic and talk some bollocks. And what bollocks it was! There's mumbling, stumbling, and more than a fair share of crumbling (in terms of ASOIAF knowledge, not spines...so far) In case you forgot: These episodes are based around the Quiz website sporcle and their ASOIAF category. I click on the random button and try to beat the average score FIVE TIMES IN A ROW. Do I do it first time? You look at the episode length and tell me. Do I forget simple, basic, first-day ASOIAF knowledge? You f*****g bet I do. Is this a good way of showing myself up and perhaps beginning to make amends for my absence? Well I sure hope so. It's a bit of fun, a bit of a laugh, and hopefully a way to ease our way back onto the shores.  Even more importantly, HAVE A GO YOURSELF. And lemme know your amazingly high scores! I'd love to get some dialogue and conversation going, and this is always a good place to start.   Please do consider giving us a rating or review if you can, and find more of the Isle of Faces and other projects at   https://www.patreon.com/IsleOfFaces     Thanks as always!

    The time has come. After a big ole gap, and delays to delays, surgeries and royal deaths and road bumps galore...your Isle has returned. And it wants answers.   Answers to questions such as:   - Where will Daenerys and Drogon fly to next?   - What will Daenerys' reaction to the Battle of Fire be?   - Will Stannis' burning of Shireen be 'successful'?   - What eldritch/otherworldly creatures could feature in the Battle of Ice?   - And is Gilly even in Oldtown?   Hopefully you all remember how this works much better than I do. Send your questions, send your answers, send your complaints! And if you have any, send your feedback too.     Please do consider giving us a rating or review if you can, and find more of the Isle of Faces and other projects at https://www.patreon.com/IsleOfFaces    Thanks as always!

    Sporcle Spectacular! Forging the Five III

    Trivia and shouting both return to the Isle of Faces in equal measure as we return for some Sporcle Spectacular and the third iteration of an attempt to Forge the Five.   And THIS TIME, I actually got the video to work (supposedly), so if you fancy watching along on my screen to see some cool maps and better focus your consternation at whatever I got wrong, you can head over to our Patreon to do so.   This time round there's Game of Thrones actor names, who died where, Joffrey facts, and lots lots more. As always, be sure to send in your own scores and any ideas for a description of my performance.   Please do consider giving us a rating or review if you can, and find more of the Isle of Faces and other projects at   https://www.patreon.com/IsleOfFaces https://twitter.com/SerBuckley   Thanks as always!

Definitely not)   This time, there's Storm of Swords characters (where you will definitely be screaming some of the simpler answers I forget), there's Free Cities talk, Night's Watch trivia, which kings died when, and plenty more!  Take a go yourselves with the links below before you have a listen if you fancy, and definitely let me know your scores if so.   - https://www.sporcle.com/games/maxvroom/storm-of-swords-most-mentioned-characters?t=asongoficeandfire   - https://www.sporcle.com/games/strokes_static/long-live-the-king?t=asongoficeandfire  - https://www.sporcle.com/games/Dryvus/freecities?t=asongoficeandfire  - https://www.sporcle.com/games/stevenmiller61/anyone-but-jon-snow?t=asongoficeandfire    Please do consider giving us a rating or review if you can, and find more of the Isle of Faces and other projects at  https://www.patreon.com/IsleOfFaces https://twitter.com/SerBuckley  Thanks as always!

    100 Questions on The Winds Of Winter Part 4 (Qs 31-40)

    This time round we ask and answer another ten questions for THREE WHOLE HOURS. How did we do it? With plenty of help from you fine folk. Emily and I make up our own Westerosi newspaper headlines, discuss the future of the far south, tick off a list, and laugh a whole bunch!     Specifically, today's questions are:   -  Name a Westerosi headline we could see in Winds  -  What will be the big 'pull the rug moment' of the book?  -  Will there be any significant pregnancies?  - What was going on with Craster and the Others? - What does the future hold for Sarella? - What does the future hold for Darkstar? - Will Jon Connington burn King's Landing? - Who is next to die on Arya's list?  - What will the Weeper do?  - Is there anything to the lemon tree theory?   Thank you for your questions. Thank you for your answers. Keep sending them both in! But before you do join us on the Isle to hear us chat about the wonder that is Gilly, who cares about Dunsen, and the wildfire safety leaflet going missing    Please do consider giving us a rating or review if you can, and find more of the Isle of Faces and other projects at https://www.patreon.com/IsleOfFaces  https://twitter.com/SerBuckley https://twitter.com/emilyoftheeyrie  Thanks as always!

    Sporcle Spectacular! Forging of the Four

    Today I go head-to-head against ASOIAF sporcle. Using the trusty ole 'random' button, I try to beat the average score for four quizzes in a row. Finish below the average? Back to the beginning! No prisoners are taken in a Sporcle Spectacular. So get ready to shout out loads of clearly obvious answers that I forget in my haste to forge. That will include a good many Houses, place names, character mentions, as well as some solid trivia. As always, remember to have a go yourself and let us know your scores. Here's a few of the quizzes included in this episode   - https://www.sporcle.com/games/Goose00/top-300-westerosi-houses-from-a-song-of-ice-and-fire?t=asongoficeandfire   - https://www.sporcle.com/games/beforever/get-the-picture-arya-sansa?t=asongoficeandfire   -https://www.sporcle.com/games/maxvroom/a-clash-of-kings-most-mentioned-characters?t=asongoficeandfire   - https://www.sporcle.com/games/stevenmiller61/a-song-of-ice-and-fire-multiple-choice-quiz?t=asongoficeandfire   - https://www.sporcle.com/games/Michiel/asoiaf-characters-by-journey-slideshow   Please do consider giving us a rating or review if you can, and find more of the Isle of Faces and other projects at   https://www.patreon.com/IsleOfFaces https://twitter.com/SerBuckley   Thanks as always!
