Game of Thrones (spoilers)

Right, I'm not sure what fights there have been so far

Could they really have gotten into that heated an argument about who would win in that fight at the Dothraki wedding? If so, that's fantastic.

But honestly when I saw the title of the article I was hoping dude did it just cause he liked the scene at the end of the first episode.

Maybe they were discussing a hypothetical fight? Like who would win between Ned and Jaime, or something along those lines. If so, that is nerdism taken to seriously high levels and also awesome.

As far as time periods, now that I think about it I don't know how much time passes between the first book and the fourth, maybe a couple years? I don't know. Martin had originally planned to have five years pass between the end of the third book and the start of the fourth, but he scrapped that. That's apparently one of the reasons why he's slowed down so much.
